| Drawing Female Tutorial |
[Apr. 25th, 2008|08:45 am] |
This is actually a pretty neat tutorial in which Steve shares with us his theory for drawing women, which isn't a whole lot different from most other males. Personally, I usually draw the head first, but to each his own.
Actually, the reason I posted this has pretty much nothing to do with art. See, for years, Jen and I have been at odds over "proper" art supplies and what constitutes as the "right way" to illustrate. Jen not only teases me for pretty much using cheap paper anyone can buy at the grocery store; she lambasts me every time she sees me using a No 2 pencil and pink eraser. I don't see what the big deal is. The final product is going to be converted to digital anyway. The initial line art is essentially thrown away.
So, I boot up this video this morning, and I notice immediately that here we have a professional artist, showing us his tricks of the trade, and what does he have in his hand? A No. 2 pencil with a standard pink eraser.
Har-har, Jen! I win. |

Did I ever show this to you guys? I think I might have, but I don't exactly remember. Oh well. I'll just post it again. This is a from another webcomic. I'd just like to point out that my drawing was first.
Now compare third panel of that page with the lats pane of this one right here.
HMMMMMM...
Hey, I have no room to complain. I figured out recently that the whole waking-up-in-a-cold-sweat gag had apparently originated from an old Howard And Nester comic. sigh... Oh well. Impersonation is the highest form of flattery, as they say.
Besides, I actually like Headtrip. |
