Do You Draw?


Gingerbreadman

Recommended Posts

I'd love to illustrate books, but I have no imagination. That's why I love Pickle's stuff so much, because she does what she does from her own imagination, and that's an absolute necessity to be a great artist.

 

All I do is draw lions:

Even Simba is like 'really? -_-'

 

Nah I'm actually still developing a new comic-book type style. Eventually I'd like to be able to draw my own animals. And I do quite like how this Simba turned out. He's a bit tougher looking than the movie one.

I draw, here's one I have just finished, it took me about 3 hours:

Nope, only joking. I used to do quite a lot of drawing when I was in Secondary school but stopped for some reason and I used to do quite a lot of animation during college.

 

There's some very good pieces of work in here though, very impressive!

I love it Timmo shows real talent :D

 

Noll a lot of my work is taken from others as well and I just adapt it the one I am working on at the moment is very similar to the original I have added in more pattern but am becoming worried that its becoming repetetive so when I start a new one I will try and work directly out of my head. I do worry that I will run out of ideas or not even be able to draw so I take it slowly.

I love your style though so realistic not something I have ever been able to do. I guess if we all drew the same it would be a boring world.

So I have been working on this quite big drawing recently and its really giving me eyestrain at the moment its still in the fairy tale theme although my next one which I have in my head at the moment will move away from that for a bit.

I still have quite a bit to do as I am working from left to right and the back ground needs filling in but I am quite pleased with the level of detail on the dresses of the Ugly sisters and the stepmother.

and started on anew one completely different in type, this one is from a load of photos I took on my recent holiday of buildings in both Leon and Valladolid, I am slighlty obsessed by buildings. :smile:

 

Its still a long way from complete as you can see where I have sketched out the ones still to do.

Cheers guys :blush: . Sorry the quality of my picture taking is so bad but to get the whole thing in I lose a lot of detail, but I take them mainly for my records as once they have gone they are gone and its a wrench :smile:

 

VF glad you like it still

It's not been framed yet as I don't know where my permanent home is going to be so I am waiting for that. But yes it is great. If you ever want any photos of it for your records I could do a few Pickle.? Just ask.

If you could draw a smilie so that, the glasses and nose were a B and J, the mouth was a C, The head was an O and you used the A as a moustache. Then I would uae this as my profile picture.
