Bleach fan art - well.. im not a fan thoo..


For this piece.... its really new for me, really. Sorry to bleach fan! i didn't really the character draw in detail... well i too lazy to search for their image so i draw what i remember only.

Material - A4 paper, mechanical pencil (0.5), eraser, drawing pen black (0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 1.0).

That's the material i used for this art, to be frank i kinda regret buying wacom tablet.. i didn't use it for this art. I scan the piece by using paint scanner, then i save it using Bmp( i use Bmp because it a hellish large file and easier for editing ) format, go to Microsoft picture manager and retone the black & white outline. Then use photoshop CS3 for digital colouring, ohhhh.... this process driving me crazy... but in the end i kinda made it... you think so?

upcoming post - I'm drawing Ambuyart (Bruneian Cartoonist) OC, I already got his permission to draw it. It's related to his Xibit Komik project, before i want to join the crew but somehow i can't because there's only small chance they publish the second issue. So wait for the next update :)

Buff


This is one of the non logical perspective, im focusing on the character right arm to make it unique although the pose are simple. The colouring i used Photoshop CS3, i use mouse instead of tablet because im too lazy to use tablet. Im still trying to find my depth in digital colouring because im still a total beginner.

  1. Brainstorming, i didn't take much time as it is a simple pose, didn't take long to do the rough                sketch.
  2. Sketching, this is where the ideas coming in. Many drastic changes during these process.
  3. Pencilling, this is ghe hardest part, alot of error in drawing reveal here so it takes longer time                 and effort during this process because this is the end of manual editting. I spent most time during        these process.
  4. Inking, so far this process is the easiest, but it depends what type of pen you're using, the more           comfortable you use it the easier the process undergo. For this art i did it pretty fast.
  5. Digital colouring, offcourse scanning first, i find it harder to colour it using tablet :S, instead i                used touchpad and mouse. Yeah, digital editting is tough for tradional artist like me :( but i'll try             my best. Actually i don't know what's the use of layer, its rather confusing because i can colour              it in one layer :/, please respond if any of you can teach more about digital colouring.

fan art upcoming next post XD

Perspective


For me, drawings, you can do anything to it, logic or not its up to you! some people say you should draw like this and like that (if you have an art teacher then its a different case). But the reality is art is not something you can predict, its a flow of our expression towards it. The above illustration by Bun Art (me) is an example of logic perspective (its not finish yet), next time I'll upload some crazy perspective. Enjoy art, you'll get unexpected outcome.
