I Guess (I'll Try This Again)...

I found the drivers for my printer/scanner, so yeah.

Here is Limecat.

EDIT:

Bit more compact.

That's a pretty good drawing of Nancy Grace.

***Cosmonautical*** · 08-21-2010, 08:05 AM

What is that, 400% scan size? Dude, next time try to keep the size the same so I'm not looking at it thinking you must have arthritis for the first 20 seconds. XD

and cat's heads don't go in limes who did this

Better or worse?

Vgfian · 08-22-2010, 02:24 AM

I did this rather quickly (Less than an hour 45 minutes tops) just so I could post something here. Anyway, here it is. It's done with a mechanical pencil on the back of an index card.

Bit of backstory and big version here .

Vgfian · 08-22-2010, 03:40 AM

Such a lovely fellow he is.

-I hate this, but I had to darken all of the lines so that my scanner would pick it up. It looks much messier now. :/

Big version here .

Glutexo's charmeleon

My crappy rendition of Haruko/SD

**Valigarmander** · 08-22-2010, 03:11 PM

The SD pic looks pretty good, aside from the fact that the head seems out of proportion, and the body doesn't look like it's in the right position compared to the arms and legs.

Also, awwww dragon.

CuccoLady · 08-23-2010, 12:42 AM

My favorite is definitely Charmeleon.

Also, regarding SD's position-- I find that drawing large, correctly-proportioned stick figures [yes stick figures, just make sure they have hips and shoulders] in whatever position you want the person to end up as, then fleshing them out works wonders for that. As in, draw the stick figure sitting and holding the guitar, then round out the arms and make a torso etc etc etc and you have a position.

Then again, you may not understand me or this may just work for me, but just an idea. Good stuff nonetheless.

Like this kind of thing, then flesh out the body after you have the basic frame.

Vgfian · 08-23-2010, 04:52 AM

^Yeah, I understand you, and I considerred doing that, but I had already finished part and was to lazy to start over. XD Plus, some of what I had done yesterday (like that picture) had pretty much been me looking at something and trying to copy it. I think it was easier for me with the jewelry piece because it was right in front of me and is made up of much simpler shapes. But I still wanted to do another with the same technique.

@Val, yeah the head was the hardest part for me to get, I kept screwing up the shape and the expression and just decided to try and cover up the chin with the scarf even if the original photo obviously didn't. XD And that's not even mentioning SD's razor sharp right elbow that I didn't notice until after the scan was done. I decided not to fix it and rescan it because I was tired and wanted togo ahead and post it. XD

***Cosmonautical*** · 08-23-2010, 05:58 AM

Your pendant design looks pretty cool. Very Celtic. Any influences?

Vgfian · 08-23-2010, 10:29 AM

^Click the link in the post, for a bit of backstory, it's a piece that I actually have right here on my desk that I (think I) found several years back. All I did was draw it. :/

Vgfian · 08-23-2010, 03:43 PM

A scan of the actual object.

'Tis indeed.

Drew in the car while thinking of a friend today.

Started taking requests on Facebook.

First one:

Brittany --------- "Dont draw a stick man falling off a cliff cuz its still unknown if its suicide or murder and you dont want to be the reason some innocent little stick man dies and you definitly dont want to be a killer so i think that would be the picture you wouldnt want to draw.........wow wat i long comment lol "

Because of my crappy handwriting:

Reporter(s): Chief, who was it?
Chief: Undetermined ATM (shutup)
Reporter(s): Chief, was this a suicide or was foul play involved?..
Chief: Depends...
Reporter(s): Depends, sir?...
Chief: Depends on what the coin lands on- heads or tails..

(Also taking requests on here.)

Vgfian · 12-18-2010, 04:42 AM

Anthony------ "Sexcopter"

Sexhawk?
*7shouldhavebeen1cough*

I tried to make it so that he was sitting on a minigun, but I couldn't do it too well without it looking too inappropriate. :/
I think hanging outside the door worked out better anywayz though. c:

Vgfian · 12-18-2010, 07:44 AM

Another friend. Another flower.

Vgfian · 12-19-2010, 12:24 AM

Same friend seemed sad/like they had something on their mind. I gave them a candycane.

Vgfian · 12-19-2010, 06:22 AM
