ok! this is cool. I got to do this for a project in my Photoshop class.
I had to use 20 masks and color channels. So here's the fastest thing I could think of and do.
7hrs total, turned it in 10 minutes after it was due....I'm a perfectionist.
love you all, hope to pop as often as I can. Life has been really busy

So this is a pencil sketch in my sketch book.
I scanned it in today. Just spent an hour adding more shades, darks and lights. I did not go in and clean the lines up.
My new sketch book is for me to challenge myself.
This is me working on perspective and being dynamic.
So it is practice. The original sketch took about forty minutes.
here is the original pencil with out the extra computer stuff.

So this is a re-do.... which I never EVER do!
the original from 2005 is here http://reddera.deviantart.com/art/Self-Portrait-88240342
I was 15, now I'm 19.
I always loved the concept so I thought to add to my portfolio I would redo it as me today.
The face is a bit off, I will continue working on it.
:)
thought it would be cool to do since Halloween is coming up. |

Edit:
I was not on drugs, is the answer to what's on everyone's mind. lol I just wanted it to be colorful.
This is the colored version of http://reddera.deviantart.com/art/What-in-the-world-113676431 Sketch.
I wanted to try a color suggestion Loish had so this is what came out.
It was to shade with complimentary or opposite colors of the base colors. This was different, but fun.
As for the background I was going to do a mechanics room, but this was a few hour project and I did not want to spend any more on it.
I've got job hunting to do. |

So David told me (which I wanted him to) that my main problems with art are
*lack of dynamic look
*characters IN their environment
*Full body dynamic action
*room for lettering for covers
He really ripped on my old Thor sketch http://reddera.deviantart.com/art/Thor-sketch-128030954
(which it needed)
So I've been wanting to do a redo and really make it cool and bring it to life.
While waiting for my boyfriend to come over I started this and finished the line work today. (10/31/09)
So this is the line work. I will be erasing the lightning lines and painting it in. There will also be a downpour of rain when I'm done. The background mountains will be foggy and the vision will be blurred by the rain the farther back you go. I have mountains draw all the way to the back to let me know to paint it and fog it out. I will have links to the references on the final color. The model is triple H.
the front rocks I looked at bracing_by_LAPIAZ http://lapiaz.deviantart.com/art/Bracing-76451247
the rest of the mountains I'll have to re-find the references.
:)
So does this show that I am at least improving on my problem areas?

Most people did squares and triangles.....this is what I chose to do. cause she's hot.

I wanted to do something quick and fun.... and I figured it's been a while since I did something from the Labyrinth.
So I grabbed a reference http://cobweb-stock.deviantart.com/art/Black-Prince-Sitting-1-30571814 from Cobweb stock
and a picture of David Bowie and drew.
I felt he should be in the dark...scheming something.

*** I can't decide what to do for the background. I was thinking a desert temple that is cracked and burned from the battle. Not sure.... read below before you tell me your idea.
So this popped in my head and I thought it would be a great series of covers.
Basically there are three Jedi, Two women.
At first the man is in love with one but she supposedly dies. He feels her get killed in an attack by the sith so he leaves. After grieving for some time he falls in love with the other woman Jedi.
The Jedi woman didn't die, her life was saved be a Sith and she goes to the Dark side and becomes a Sith lord.
She finds out that her lover did not come to save her or even inquire about her, that he has fallen in love with another.
This is the moment of her return and revenge.
She is victorious and takes pleasure in it.
He is shocked, saddened and in great pain....since he has been betrayed and killed. The woman in the back is his Jedi love too late.
I was thinking about doing a series of these in which the woman Jedi goes to kill the sith and maybe becomes one in the process.
Just so I don't have to say it over and over again, After Luke began a new Jedi academy Jedi were allowed to fall in love and have emotion. They are more gray than extremes.
Jedi, Sith and anything Star Wars belongs to George Lucas.
This is fan art. |

***EDIT: ok, so I added Street lights and lamps, lessened Spider-man's moon glow, and added a turning car.
Thanks everyone your words mean so much to me. Pijon, your critique was great, I knew something was missing but I couldn't place it. Thanks. Ionisys, yes I'm a girl, thanks you :D and thanks Pres, DD wow....thank you so much. got me all teary eyed. Oh and to answer questions, the woman in the window is MJ, the photograph in the back is actually a painting of a picture of my boyfriend and I (we look like MJ and Peter there) the model on the billboard is also MJ. and as for the Baxter Building....I had no idea what that building was. Just thought it looked cool, and was the correct angle.
Thank you everyone for your help in the forum and with references. You're my life savers.
Kisses

I really like this. It feels like a jump in my art. Don't have much to say cause I'm brain dead.
I am going to post a link here to the DA post, I had to lower the resolution greatly and a lot of the details were lost.

So I was feeling really artistic and grabbed one of my sketches and colored it.
I'm exhausted so the colors are a bit lazy.
I'm actually not a fan of Snow White but the reference I had could be no other girl but her.
So here it is.

I did all of these as dynamic action practice.
They were done at home on my personal sketchbook.
The Batman in the corner is me practicing a classic picture done by Neal Adams.
The rest are done from photo references that I transformed. Most of them look nothing like the originals.
If you want any of these larger let me know and I will make a separate page for them.
any and all copy righted characters belong to their owners and this is all fan art and artistic practice. |

I had the same final for my Photoshop class and my Photoshop and Illustrator class.
The assignment was to create the most creative and best piece of art in Photoshop, showcasing my skills and knowledge of the program.
I was asked to do a Photo-manipulation...this idea was the first thing that came to my head.
ok there is A LOT of stock used here.
To see all of the stock links go to my Deviantart, Here:

THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE STOCK PHOTOGRAPHERS:
I didn't credit to individual names because there are so many of you, but there will be a link on each of your images to this, if you are unhappy about your name not being there let me know and I will add it.

So I actually feel like posting one of my drawings here. It's probably the only one I'll post. But here's what I wrote about it on Deviant.
****
I've been seeing lots of artists do a gray background under their lines, and then shade them. I've always thought this was cool but never got to trying it.
I love Jean Grey (The Phoenix) she's my favorite comic book character of all time. So I wanted to test the gray shading with her. I've had this picture of Angelica Bridges that reminds me of Jean. So I used that as a reference. There is a lot more here than the original pose that Angelica is doing. It really took a life of it's own. I'm going to try out the color masking thing with this tomorrow. It's late now.
But let me know what you think. I personally think my art is getting a more professional look to it. That's often my goal. Don't worry I love to improve and try new stuff so I'm not saying I'm done learning. I'm saying it is getting to what I think I want my art to look like professionally.
Anyway, this is a big fav for me. Can't wait to do more.
The eyes remind me of my hero and one of my favorite artists character eyes (AH!) that makes me want to jump up and down with joy. He's so cool, but It's still my style. Which I'm not really sure what that looks like. lol

Didn't sleep last night. This is what I did instead.
Thought it was cool, the body is Agelicia Bridges, I don't know who the face is, the background is from Batman: The dark Knight, the fire is from a forest fire image. The rest is painted.
Phoenix (Jean Grey) is owned be MARVEL comics. This is fan art and will not be sold. Same goes for each image used here. If you recognize something as yours, please let me know and I will credit you. |

This started as a sketch in my sketchbook that I did in August.
But I scanned it in and fixed somethings, then painted over it to enforce the effects.
I really love Harry, and the Dresden Files series.
To me out of everything I've read they are some of the best books out there. Most of all they inspire me to draw often. So here is another Harry Dresden doing his thing.
I have more to come of him....lots of half done stuff
I do not own Harry Dresden, this is fan art and a Tribute to Jim Butchers masterpiece. |
