GO TO LATER PAGES FOR NEWER STUFF!

Hey all. First post here, kinda intimidated by all the skilled artist and the ammount of them too. Hopefully I can get some attention and help to help me improve too. ^^b

Here's some stuff to start with. I'll get the sketches going soon.

UDPATE : Rawr I'm back! You'll find lots of life drawings as you go down. There's a pinch of weirdness amid them too and at the end is new sketches and wips and quickies. I've got a few portraits to show... but I'm saving them. ^^

ENJOY!

Eat me. Feedback wud be real nice I jst started life drawing (is this life drawing?) to kinda improve and actually have a more distinct style. I'l try to get to anatomy and stuff now its jst copying stuff in clothes brochures...

**Transitory** · July 15th, 2005, 08:29 PM

Getting a hang of this. The bottom right is rushed cuz Im missing my show... and yea scan bit badder cuz I forgot to rotate during scan.

**aeoxo** · July 15th, 2005, 09:03 PM

I like your work. I would like to see more, and some shaded or textured stuff... the oni is great... put some color on him... the characters on the couch don't look like they are comfortable, like they are about to fall off.

Show me some color! looks good.

Nice.

Here is what I suggest you do: Of course, more life drawing, but actually going out to a cafe, or what have you, and drawing people. Draw yourself in the mirror, draw your friends, your family, pets, anything. During this, practice your anatomy from books, life drawing, photos, anything you can get your hands on.

Also, push your values some more, right now most of your sketches seem to be flat, in terms of shading. Get some contrast in there!

But anyway, you seem to have a good grasp over your pencil, just practice some more and keep posting.

Good luck.

Wee for comments!

Aexo - I got a few old colors. Gotta finish some wips or maybe can show you em here. Shading yea I'm not that good at it yet I jst got one pencil dunno how the pros manage it.

incognito - cafe eh? I live in suburbs... the cafe there sucks doesnt have the mood. People say I should try shading more and stuff. I'll work on contrast but the ref pics don't offer much.

Here's today's page... a bit later since I was with friends... its hard enough just to draw a page...

**Transitory** · July 17th, 2005, 04:22 PM

Since one of you requested I showed some coloured pics...
This is my latest one maybe not best dunno. First fully digital painting so yea it sucks... got pretty fed up towards the end becauz it was for a draw-off that kinda died. Newayz here it is. I'll try to get my usual sketch up tonight... my ref mag is kinda depleted Φ¯.¯!

**Transitory** · July 18th, 2005, 01:31 PM

Back to sketches... since I watched a film instead of drawing I'll catch up with 2 sketches... tried a foto found on net. After seeing Sleepy Hollow I just wanted to draw Christina Ricci. Didn't work out but yea I won't stop yet.

**Transitory** · July 18th, 2005, 09:44 PM

This time tried Natalie Portman and a squelly... I'll get it one day.

**blackswordsman28** · July 18th, 2005, 09:50 PM

nice sketch book....

**mentler** · July 18th, 2005, 09:51 PM

Very strond indeed

**Gilead** · July 18th, 2005, 10:31 PM

The Christina Ricci one is very nice, good volume achieved through shading.

**Transitory** · July 19th, 2005, 10:04 PM

blackswordsman - Thanks I like it too and do you like Beserk?

mentler - ?

Gilead - Thanks here's more hope you like.

Had less time so its not a full paper... Yea rushing cuz i'll miss my shows...

**madplanet** · July 19th, 2005, 10:17 PM

I like what you have here. I agree with what some of the others said about adding some tone and more shading, but having said that, I kind of liked the ones that were just line drawings. They have something about them that looks good like that. The color piece is good, I liked it.

If you want to learn anatomy, and every artist should, check out any thread by Mentler. He is amazing. I should make it a habit to take a look at his posts everyday.

Other than that, I think that what you are doing is right on track; draw from life and practice everyday (I should take my own advice).

**Transitory** · July 20th, 2005, 10:21 PM

Got bored of penciling. Went to ps and fired up wacom. Took quite a bit cuz I didnt know what to do. Naruto Fanart. Deviantart submission slightly diffrent.

**dashi** · July 21st, 2005, 11:55 AM

yea i would definitely try more life drawings instead of using pictures
it will improve your eyes more than you know making 2d look 3d
love the posts, i actually just saw a couple episodes of naruto...

**ArtisticSchmidt** · July 21st, 2005, 02:52 PM

I like these, too. Do some more body studies. Your faces are nice already. (of course anything could be improved upon) Do some more color ones also. Good job! I'll check back for more soon!

**Transitory** · July 21st, 2005, 07:46 PM

Madplanet- now I understand his post lol.

Dashi- You mean like go out in the parc and draw people in live action?

ArtisticSchmidt- I'll try to get the wacom going more often but my usb port broke so yea I gotta switch between all in one printer and wacom each time :/ its a pain for my head cuz I gotta crawl under the computer.

Went to National librairy which is huge... went to fourth floor: music and film. Sat on this place to listen to music with my friend who is writing a rock history book and I doodled this...

DONT CLICK JST WATCH THUMBNAIL ^^

**Transitory** · July 22nd, 2005, 10:19 PM

Ps wip. Sketchtrade: Battlemonk redo.

**ArtisticSchmidt** · July 26th, 2005, 10:13 AM

Hey, Transitory! You could get a USB port so you don't have to have a bunch of things running through one USB. They are around 25 to 50 bucks. Just a thought.

I love the linework on that last one! Nice work of the smudge tool.

**Transitory** · July 26th, 2005, 09:58 PM

Yea thought of it but dunno did some cutting on my table so now its easier to insert and remove cables and did a whole repositioning of my room for better fung shuei (typo).

Was busy these last 3 days... I'll get sketches back up soon ^^b

**OpenBook** · July 26th, 2005, 11:28 PM

a picture says a thousand words and you make it so...

**Transitory** · July 31st, 2005, 04:40 PM

Playing with MTG editor... colors are not mine.

**Transitory** · August 5th, 2005, 04:16 PM

**Transitory** · August 9th, 2005, 09:04 PM

**madplanet** · August 9th, 2005, 09:15 PM

Is the ear done by you or the guy who's name is on the bottom?

**Transitory** · August 10th, 2005, 05:17 PM

Me of course that name is just there

**madplanet** · August 10th, 2005, 06:33 PM

In that case, well done.
