Yeah, I could do better, lol. But I'm still getting used to the pressure points of the pen. I can't wait til I start getting used to it. I'm going to stick to practicing on this eye til I get it perfected, then move on to another body part. Try to get my rusty drawing skills back on track.

So I take it that you're aiming for the manga style?

Obsidian 10-04-2012 12:55 AM

Mostly, yes. Tho, I've read in some areas that to better do manga, it would be wise to learn how to draw realistic.
My expertise when pencil drawing was always animal related, so I figured it's about time for me to learn human anatomy as well.

Espy 10-04-2012 12:58 AM

For anatomy, you do want to start with a realistic sense of anatomy. It took me a very, very long time to pull my art far away enough from manga to be able to focus on anatomy.

Obsidian 10-04-2012 01:03 AM

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I have my mother's book around here somewhere for realism. I'm hoping that I can find it and use it for a starters. But I'll mostly look to DA for tutorials. Found tons of great tutorials for 'em. Just hard to view them side-by-side. Kinda wish I could dual-screen with the Sanyo, lol.
Only my husbands computer is set up for that, tho.

Edit
Also, is it just me or is the Avatar System slow as hell and not working?

Espy 10-04-2012 01:04 AM

I have a few anatomy refs in my dA faves that I could find for you.

Helsinki Harlot 10-04-2012 01:06 AM

Obsidian; I hate you and your skill. My first drawings where never like that.

You also have a fancier one. xD; <3 So jealous.

And DA is where I get all my refs/tutorials from.

Obsidian 10-04-2012 01:06 AM

That would be awesome! It's difficult to weed out the basic and advanced tutorials in DA. And I do a search by the most popular cause I hate to say it but most of the time, the 'recently added' ones are just.... not worth my time. But I guess I'm just that picky. However, I have found crappy tutorials that I've worked with and made better, so I suppose they're not all 'crappy'.

Helsinki Harlot 10-04-2012 01:07 AM

What type of tutorials are you looking for?

Lol, well if it makes you feel better..

Technically my first drawing was my family of stick figures.

Daddy, Mommy (I literally created a 'stomach bubble' with a baby inside cause she was pregnant, lol), me, my sister and brother.

X]

Kinda wonder what ever happened to that pic... hrm.. But then again, I've been drawing since I could ever pick up a pencil too.
This drawing is my 'first drawing' using the tablet! I'm so excited for this tablet! ^-^

I also find it funny cause of the dark/medium/light strokes used in the eye, haha. I haven't got the pressure thing down yet. >.>

And any and all ref's would be great!

This is my ref collection. Some of it's for computing games and some of it's actual pictures of people. Feel free to flip through.

Haha, It took me ages to make anything recognizable on the tablet. It's a difficult tool to wield. You're already doing great with it.

Espy 10-04-2012 01:16 AM

I can't find a certain one, and these are probably too technical, but I'll put them here anyways.

:) Heey, the top one's in my favorites. It's a good tutorial.

Espy 10-04-2012 01:18 AM

I can't find Gasara's anatomy tut. That one's pretty good as well.

Obsidian 10-04-2012 01:26 AM

Okies! Lookin into 'em!

Here's some old, old drawings I did years ago for practice.
Sources were internet, magazines and animal books.

Mine. Held up a mirror and drew myself back when I was 19 years old.

Helsinki Harlot 10-04-2012 05:01 AM

Pretty good. I like the Elephant the best. :)

But. Oh dear god. Razorbacks? xD; I'm so lucky Sarah isn't on tris.
I've lived with her for about 2 years and now is our halfway third (since I spend weekends here) and I get the 'privilege' of watching the Arkansas football games with her.
