Juliana Chislu's Sketchbook quest

[lennon]

Very good stuff. The anatomy studies are really paying off. The hips are sometimes a little wide and the heads are a few times small, but it's minor stuff that you'll solve it if you keep practicing as you have been. The poses are very wild (that's a compliment).
Also good job in the digital painting department.
Btw, you're your own model? No wonder why this drawings look so good, if you ever are visiting Argentina and need a male model...

[ChisLu]

lennon
Thank you so much Yeah, hips are kinda my weakness at this moment, but I'll be working more on it soon, and now I've started paying more attention to proportions as well. Yes I am XD sometimes I can't find the pose that I want, so I end up taking some photos of myself. And about the male model, I'll keep this in mind XD Thanks again.

Finally got enough courage to watch Harry Potter DH pt2, cried my heart out (yeah, lam I know, but what can I do if the HP books were "my escape" when I was younger?) did few sketchy-portraits, figured out some parts were wrong, so I studied the head proportions.

[ChisLu]

Still not able to do much, with my uncle at the hospital, I'm worried like, 100% of the time So there you go a Sorcerer-something-else and a really lame environment doodle, done by using just an impasto brush on Painter.

[glaudarien]

Good stuff ChisLu, sorry to hear about your uncle - best of luck for him.

HP7 pt2 was great wasn't it? Those portraits are pretty good, i agree there are proportional errors and things but you've managed to capture their likeness really well.

Keep it up!

[ChisLu]

Thank you very much Glaudarien.
Yes, it was amazing, I cried my eyes out D: Yeah, I should've made the head studies first so they wouldn't look off, but I might be doing some new portraits soon, checking the proportions million times now.

[lukiza]

Nice gestures there, you just need more confident when drawing your lines and keep it posting!

[ChisLu]

hey lukiza! Thanks for checking my sb, yeah, I've been practicing my lines, but I don't know why I keep messing them your SB is amazing, btw, I'm in love with your gestures.
So, there ya go some stuff from the past 2 days (in time order):

[lukiza]

Theres a site i use a lot for drawing with other users its, www.artgrounds.com you might like to try it.

[ChisLu]

Thanks lukiza, I'll be checking this site with more time tomorrow, my classes just re-started D:
This is just something I started tonight, gotta love Sphynxes, they're way too cute.

[Ven S]

You got some nice studies Chislu. So don't stop!

[ChisLu]

@wanderer: Thank you a lot I'll be uploading a lot more from now on.
My uncle is finally out of the hospital, I feel relieved to see that he's feeling a bit better already.
So, I finished the Sphynx study, about 3 hours and something, one brush and 2 layers.

[Velocity Kendall]

this is a smashing study, more please

[Joe777k7]

Hey just stopping by to show some respects! Great posts so far! Keep it up! I am also self teaching myself for now. Its all about dicipline and pushing yourself. Great digital works and your pencil studies are coming along really good! Keep posting!

[ChisLu]

@Velocity Kendall thanks a lot, I'll be doing more of those soon
@Joe777k7 Hiya! Thank you a lot for stopping by my sketchbook, it's quite hard to get enough discipline when it's just about yourself in you own house XD Thank you a lot.

Did some more studies, those are from yesterday and this afternoon, I wish I could've spent more time and doing more of them, but another semester in college just started....

[lennon]

That cat is awesome!
Also, the figure studies are looking really good, it's a pitty that you are covering some of them. Maybe you can draw while listening to the teacher. I tend to that (it doesn't break your concentration, I think). You kind of say "this semester I'll only draw hands" or something like that, and by the end you have really improved without even noticing.

[ChisLu]

@lennon: hey, thanks a lot! I just covered the complete fail one, so no biggie XD

It took me a while to post again, I know, it's just that I was really sad since my (now) ex dumped me and said tons of bad stuff to me. So, onto the update!

[ChisLu]

Took me too long to update here since I'm working and barely have time to draw, so, expect nothing good enough this time, since I've been drawing on my way to college :/
All those are from memory.

[Joe777k7]

Great job with the last post! YOur pencil work is moving along really good. Lets keep seeing some more posts now!!

[ChisLu]

Hey Joe!
I'm sorry it took me this long to actually reply thanking you for checking my SB. I'm working now so I barely have time to draw something and actually finish it
I just got a Wacom *O* I'm very happy and excited to use it. I might be uploading something big soon, I promise.

[ChisLu]

Some WIPs of the mermaid I'm trying to work on

[ChisLu]

It's been a while since I last updated my sketchbook, argh, I barely have time to sleep now :~
So, onto the newest sketches.
The last one was done for a test with my new baby, I just bought my first Wacom tablet, I couldn't be happier

[Joe777k7]

Nice work, what model wacom did you get?
I would suggest still learning some of the connection points for the msucles so you can understand where they insert and how far they are actually stretching sometimes. Great job, lets see more more more!!!

[ChisLu]

Ok, so still pretty busy, but I've managed to draw a few pages on my SB

[ChisLu]

Finally I've manage to actually finish something!
Nature God - mixed media, used a lot of "mattepainting" techniques in this one to help me with time, i'm kinda happy with the result.
I had this idea a year ago when I first started using a tablet, so I'm now comparing the two.

[wasabi89]

Adorei os sketches. Sempre muito bom encontrar brasileiros pelo CA
Suas cores tbm estao muito boas! Idéias legais e anatomia melhorando a cada novo post.
Se eu pudesse te dar uma dica, seria fazer mais estudos anatomicos.
Nesse site vc consegue baixar todos os livros do Loomis : http://alexhays.com/loomis/
Me ajudou muito tb no começo. Tenta copiar os desenhos dele e refaz de cabeça pra ter ctz que vc assimilou ao maximo tudo que ele ta tentando ensinar. Espero que ajude.

Força aí!

[ChisLu]

Olá wasabi!
Realmente é sempre interessante encontrar brasileiros pelo CA, agradeço por ter checado meu sketchbook e pelo seu comentario
Já baixei os livros do Loomis, mas atualmente estou tendo mais receptividade às tecnicas e traços de George Bridgman e Glenn Vilppu.

[ChisLu]

Just a step-by-step thing and the final version of my Felice Fawn painting.

[Fernteixeira]

lovely hand in last work!

nem sei se pode falar em port. mas haha.. sabe a orelha do lado esquerdo da tela, ali tem uma coisa q fico bem bonito, tem uma variação de saturação ou de hue , fica mais azulado (frio) e do lado vem um laranjinha/rosa bem quentinho...esse tipo de coisa é legal demais.. deixa mais vivo :B

[ChisLu]

Thank you so, so much for checking my sketchbook, your works have been inspiring me for quite sometime now

Não sei, imagino que podemos falar em portugues ja que muitos
membros tbm postam em outras linguas(?) agaradeço muito a dica e vou prestar atenção nestes detalhe snos próximos trabalhos.

[ANtY93]

Awesome sketchbook, love these studies and imaginary drawings! You've improved a lot since the beginning, good job! You said that you like games and would like to become a concept artist, why not start now? Check indiedb.com / tigsource.com / moddb.com there are a lot of promising projects that seek for concept artists. In some you can even get payed for your work Start early and you'll have better connections, etc. so you'll be able to participate in better games, make more cash, etc. Just my advice

You like games, you're drawing, you're also very pretty - ideal?
