mad Doggy!
It was sooo nice of you and the wifey to visit the BatCave last Friday!
Come by anytime!
OOOOKAY!
IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW BY NOW...
There's now a Gallery Section for all us arteests to post our finished work,
so if you just want an art fix....go there!
If you'd like to ask me arty questions or see some step-by-steps on paintings and whatnots
then THIS is the place to check in!
First How-To....
We're gonna learn how to make a "Cannibal's Treat" drawing!
YAY!
First,we quickly sketch a concept that says "HEY! Make me into something!"
Next,grab some watercolor paper
get it wet
brush ink all over it
roughly making a blobby copy of the sketchbook piece...
here it is reeeeal close!
After that dries...
grab a fineline sharpie and start drawing the picture onto the ink
loosely following the shapes underneath..
(Here's your chance to dial in the drawing...)
Close-ups..
Next step is to grab a gray or neutral tone of ink
to further develop the shadows
and intensify the lighting...
Close-ups!
After THAT...
grab a white colored pencil and fill in the skulls/fingernails/teeth
and anything else that needs a white fill or hi-light....
THEN grab a thicker sharpie and just go over the outlines of the elements
keeping the finer lines to stand on their own....
it should look like this...
and here it is finished!
Hope you enjoyed this first of many tutorials
your questions,if not too silly,will be answered to the fullest of my ability...
Mahalos!
