after a long hiatus from drawing of any sort, i've started work on a comicbook concept. this is a preliminary design for the heroin. c&c welcome as always. Smile

Not a whole lot of detail in there, but that's a damn fine drawring.
Beautiful strokes.

I agree with elam. More details would bring more character. Very nice sketch.

Max · Posted: Sun Dec 29, 2002 2:50 am

It's a great skech. Don't worry too much about detail!

Behemoth · Posted: Sun Dec 29, 2002 3:10 am

Maybe add a backpack or some some pockets at waist? She would need some place for more ammo and makeup etc Smile

Also how does the hair end? It would be nice if that was shown too, now you cant really tell what haircut she has. Anyways, the sketch looks really good, so its hard to come up with critique.

point noted. yeah i tend to be satisfied with less than adequate detail sometimes, too absorbed with overall structure. thanks for your comments and encouragement. Smile

i will post a finished (more detailed) version very soon.

some baddies for her to shoot at...

Drunken Monkey · Posted: Wed Jan 01, 2003 1:35 am

Just wanna say again that your sketches rock.

piter · Posted: Wed Jan 01, 2003 11:52 pm

thanks dr. monkey. Wink

loved your picture so much I thought I'd do a quick speedpainting

Wow, I think that's quite amazing! I swear I've seen this style somewhere before, maybe some starwars game, but it also has anime like qualities, which is quite good I like the green lightning it gives so much more to the overall character attitude at least how i see it, I wish to see the background more complete though, her left foot seems a bit bigger then the right foot which is kinda outta place to me, or as if she's wearing heels on her right and running shoes or something on her left, the post-apocalypse/sci-fi feel is awesome. The gun looks strange and unique which is good, definetley have the background like a space junk yard or something, just a thought. I like the painting. The original sketch is lose and quick, and does the job right, the sketch on its own reminds me of boba fett.

not bad... i kinda like the lighting you got going there... i find the colours a bit too intense though.
anyway, nice attempt!

piter · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:00 pm

my final rendering (in marker). i'm pretty happy with it. if you want, go ahead and colour it (just don't remove or otherwise obscure the copyright). Smile

c&c welcome...

Drunken Monkey · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:15 pm

She gain a couple pounds? Smile

piter · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:19 pm

he he... that's probably due to my digital camera's aspect ratio... but i don't mind it too much. what do you think?

Drunken Monkey · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:31 pm

I don't mind extra coating. I think its the soul that matters. Laughing

Nah man, you know it rocks.

piter · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:37 pm

here's a corrected version for those of you who like their women thin.

piter · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:51 pm

doh! i think her upper body is too short, now that i've had a fresh look at it. Sad

Drunken Monkey · Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2003 8:57 pm

Maybe the lats are a bit wide.

piter · Posted: Sun Jan 12, 2003 12:39 am

i think you might be on to something there, doc. Wink

neff · Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2003 10:45 am

Very nice! I like your style. You don't try to over state anything and leave a some for the imagination.

piter · Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2003 10:16 pm

umm... er... gee, i've never been proposed to before. Laughing

thanks neff... i prefer girls though. Wink

btw, i'll repost the finished version of the second sketch below (it's also in the finished gallery).

pritch: thanks Wink

I love your line drawings. Really. I never get tired of seeing really solid expressiveness like this.

On the other hand, the color versions seem a tad on the muddy side to me. I like the second color version of the girl where you don't cover up the line work, though I don't know if I feel quite as good about the airbrushed-ness in there -- its up to you, I guess. I'd say keep going in that direction and find a way to avoid the muddiness, and you're really cooking.

piter · Posted: Thu Jan 16, 2003 1:19 am

hey Zarathustra. cool name Wink

. thanks for your compliments on my line drawings! the colour ones were NOT done by me. they were done by the people who posted replies to my topic (polarFONTey, and NeFF). we have distinctly different styles. if i ever did colour them, i can guarantee you they would look different. not better necessarily, but different. thanks to polarFONTey and NeFF for their colouring attempts!

Zarathustra · Posted: Thu Jan 16, 2003 1:49 am

I'm sorry, I missed that about the color drawings being by other posters. I guess that was the point of the thread. In my haste to say how much I liked the drawings I guess I overlooked that.

Anyway, carry on! Embarassed

piter · Posted: Thu Jan 16, 2003 2:13 am

that's ok

thanks for taking the time out to reply. always appreciated.
