Hi Mac,

welcome to the club. I can feel with you, did nearly the same - just was doing ads instead of drawing (and I´m not married

). I see even the the 40 rolling towards me ... and yes, I have to get back to my old standards again, too.

I hope to see some of your actual stuff later on here - the sketchbook people here are a friendly community.

Fipse

BTW I checked your website some times earlier and I think you shouldn´t have much of a problem getting back ...

I have also been learning to color, my greatest fault has always been not finishing my work... and jsut leaving it in a doodle state.. well these are my attempts and styles of the years since 95 they are in oder

I tried color pencil

I tried water colors

I tried markers

I started learning to color on the computer after reading some tutorials

after some practice I think I got kinda good at it

I colored this one yesterday on a very old sketch that I really liked... it was a pretty bad drawing but with the stuff I know how to do now I was able to fix it up and turn it into something cool

( before )ball point pen

after fixing it in photoshop

I really love color ruff grainy sketches but I have found that the better/cleaner the sketch from the start the better the drawing turns out....

I've also been working on environment designs... I'm not very good but I really want to get better...

My wife bought me a new Intuos 2 drawing pad for my birthday so I've been trying again

I need some work I think I have good layouts but I need to figure out how to make the realism come out...

Like this one
its start out really cool but the clouds got muddy... and everything turned into a cartoon....

the trees....!@#$%!@ I'm not gonna even comment
I wish I could find a tutorial how to build this stuff up to look real... I know theres a system I just need to see it and I know I could make it work in time

heres a city scape... I think it looks cool doing the perspective was fun..

**OneBigCelt** · August 22nd, 2003, 11:26 AM

well here i am... on August 22nd 2003

I'm going to begin this thread.. from this day forward...
I'm going to use references for my pictures... I have always had the idea that if you look at something it cheating... so I'm gonna start and stick to that...

here is my first sketck using a refernece....

I know I know... but yes it is from a refernce... it was an upper body of young Arnold Schwarzenegger and I actually like it ... I was playing with my drawing padd again... I think the muscles structure is good... better than I do out of my head...

Thanks for the welcome Fipse

**zeroe** · August 22nd, 2003, 07:13 PM

hi there ^^
well i daresay you do have some skills in store, so gettting back into it really wont be too hard. What i suggest it to draw alot from real life and experiment alot. colorstudies/sketches/doodles and the like. i really think there is some potential here waiting to come out. cant wait to see more

**OneBigCelt** · August 29th, 2003, 09:08 AM

**OneBigCelt** · August 29th, 2003, 01:40 PM

**OneBigCelt** · August 30th, 2003, 10:07 AM

I found a tutorial how to do smoth gems... it was really easy and I think the most realistic looking thing on the page

**endregan** · August 30th, 2003, 10:28 AM

. i think these are great. try doing some realistic pieces though, it wont hurt!

**OneBigCelt** · September 2nd, 2003, 02:12 PM

**Robolus** · September 2nd, 2003, 02:15 PM

**OneBigCelt** · October 7th, 2004, 03:18 PM

OK FOLKS----- I have been working for a long time in my Journal... 2 years it seems... My Story is really comming along... and having a story to draw from has really been helping me...

I am going to start posting images from my journal for you guys....

alot of it is on lined paper... but I am cool with it... I have begun an image Journal as well but for some reason my best Ideas and characters are on lined paper... go figure.... I have tried to use Painter to paint images... but I stink at it... coloring in photoshop seems to be my best tool...

so I will keep at it...

here is the first of many
