Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
The suit is working!
Of course you are both right, that one was a total dud.
Day 118
Cower in fear, there is a new anatomy guide in town.
Thanks go to the ponythread IRC chat and Kindablue.
Also, began drawing on a picture for Grif.
Don't mind the strand of hair waiting to pounce on Lyra.
Also also, I found a giant bunch of tutorials right here so I might start drawing anatomy sketches again.

Day 119
So apparently I'm artist enough now to have the blocks.
I've just been trying and failing across three sheets of paper to get a certain pose and appearance across, with a clear as day picture already in mind, and it just wont work.
So the sun is rising again now and I can hear birds singing.
Drawn without any sort of reference.

Day 120
In which I poke at foreshortening.
What should have been accomplished yesterday.
EDIT: I just realized that the stone he is resting his foot against looks like it's further away from the viewer than his right leg, I'll be sure to correct that.Last edited by PrinceAquilaDei; 2012-05-14 at 07:37 PM.

Not in the most productive of moods, honestly.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Day 124
PRODUCTIVITY
Got half done with another picture, didn't want to put that here while it was still unfinished.
Promising myself doesn't seem to be working out so well, so I'm just going to write it here and shame myself into working harder.
I intend to draw so much tomorrow you guys. You don't even know. Yeah, this is definitely a thing that is most certainly going to happen.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Day 125 (Strenuously)
That didn't work out at all, for reasons partially outside of my control. That day kind of got eaten by some really stupid things.
I'm going to get scarce around the web from now on, and I don't know when that will be resolved, part by necessity but also out of choice. Expect a catchup post in about a week, give or take three days.
I'll still be drawing daily, naturally. Should I fail in that I'll inform you about it.
The desert calls, see you later.
This could be seen as the end of chapter one, if you were so inclined.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Like the purple. It's weird that they are both light though.
And that's cool; I don't have anything to say on it really. It just made a log of sense at the time. I just find life is easier if I don't assume stupid people are stupid. It doesn't always pay off.
There is face in the sketch stage. Did you erase it or never get around to it?
But they are, see?
Tookme a minute, tops.
Also, began drawing on a picture for Grif.

Why is everyone but me do damn good at drawing Midnight?!
I am astounded by the technical work on that billowy banner. Envious, in fact. This entire thing just sort of leaves me awestruck.
Luna, do they!
Lemme know when you figure out how to make them stop.
och, that's unfortunate. Especially seeing these last few things.
Ah well.
Hopefully when you come back, I'll have one of these threads.
I wish you well whatever road you take. Search for green; it means an oasis.

It might not fix the problem today but it'll make sure you've still got a chance at fixing the problem tomorrow.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Hello again, everyone.
I've failed, not in drawing daily, but in achieving the goals I set up for myself a week ago but chose not to share here, having already broken another promise the very day before. I have fulfilled the letter of the draw challenge and failed it in spirit.
And so, this update is less than half of what it should be.
Yet more room for improvement.
You make a very important point, but let's not think it impossible to break an infinite thing into perfectly finite pieces.
Good luck in the meatspace. I hope to see you back soon - you've been doing impressively well at the challenge.
Now that you mention it the tone of purple is kind of off canon, at least on the tower. Maybe something is illuminating it?
There is face in the sketch stage. Did you erase it or never get around to it?
Oh wow. That's really good @__@

I honestly wouldn't put it past myself to forget if I couldn't drink it.
Uhm.
Day 126 to 134
I've begun on a series of images, and there are going to be eight in total. As of now there are only three sketches, but that is another thing about to be corrected.
I decided to take a hint from Thanqol and single out at least one new or uncomfortable thing to explore in every one, however small.
And also every picture is going to be full body portrait of one individual, and the motive will be inspired by one of the songs in the homestuck album Medium.
Rain
I'll try to portray water and rain in this picture (Hello, this is me thinking outside the box). But there is none of that there yet, of course.
Shade
An attempt to draw a narrative using only a single image, this one needs a lot of tweaking (proper pespective leaps to mind, I just winged it).
Heat
Some foreshortening going on with the arm here, I might add or change details though.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
I see you haven't noticed the endless series of sketchy garbage that's made up the last week of my drawthread. The intention to learn a thing is blocked by the very real gulf of practise and persistence. When you fail, redefine victory.
You make a very important point, but let's not think it impossible to break an infinite thing into perfectly finite pieces.
I'm sorry you had to wait. And thank you, it means a lot.
Huh? Now I can't help wondering if I did something wrong, because I didn't have much difficulty.
You guys are honestly the greatest. I've been sitting here silently berating myself for an imagined drop in quality these last weeks.
The single thing that kills my motivation the hardest is doing a good picture one day, trying to draw another good picture the next day and completely botching it.
That's the reason behind the title of my new thread. Every step is the first.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Oh, I have. But I have reason to think that I had more free time to spare than you had this last week, and I should have done better. But that reminds me anyway, I've been a tool and not congratulated you on making it through the first year yet. That is truly big, good work.
Improvement is gradual, making milestones difficult to determine.
I mostly have trouble with her colour scheme. Getting bright blue, dark blue and light purple to not clash is hard.
Without assumption

Good plan. I feel like every day is an experiment or an application of previous experiments. It's amazing how much the experiments build up.
Not sure how I feel about the face...
Looking forwards to seeing this one in colour in particular.
Day 135
So here we go.
Okay, so, just some very thin filler today, with some simplified anatomy and some bodyshapes.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Watch me.
Day 137
A bird.
I did do a couple of other things today, and I promise tomorrow will be if not more ambitious then at least more serious.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Well hay, wish I'd thought of that.
I need to spend more time applying myself and less making smart-ass remarks.
Its even possessed of a wee monocle
Escher. I should know that...
Well that sounds like solid advice.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Can't stop drawing. Mall will eat me.
Escher. I should know that...
Mostly I was thinking it would be less sun-scorchy.
I like the rump in the first one, the boots in the second. The third is most possessed of a soul, however.
wow, that's traditional media? I feel so left behind...
So is today.
Day 138
Did I say serious, I have shenanigans to get up to.
We meet this beauty again.
And yet another wardrobe change.Last edited by PrinceAquilaDei; 2012-06-01 at 07:15 PM.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Day 139
Clockwork Protosketch
In which I'm eventually going to draw a lot heavy machinery (a battleship) and some patterned cloth.
We'll see how much of this picture survives into the final product.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Laziest of days!
Day 140
I badly need to draw more in proper perspective apparently.
Also draw more in general, this is getting embarrassing.
Don't mock this bridge, this is a serious medical condition.

Day 141
One of those few times I try to directly copy a physical object before me when I draw.
Some hands.
(My left hand isn't actually deformed)

Day 144 (Yay 144 is an incredibly good number, just you know in general)
Begun sketching on Clockwork proper. Background needs tinkering, as does the hairdo.
Here it is.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Day 146
Light Protosketch
Last time I tried to draw a face from a lower angle I wasn't too pleased with the result. Now the focus will be more on how the neck behaves in this one, since it's really in profile. I'll try to draw a face from a lower angle head on in Frogs, when I get there. Also, this will probably be a good excuse to draw some pretty seafoam, sunrays and clouds. Which sounds nice.

Say... do you ever actually finish any of these sketches you seem to start here? You got quite a few strings unconnected now.

Re: The Fresh Prince's Daily Draw Challenge
Are you trying to antagonize me into working harder?
Note to self: When the uprising starts, spare Domo for his insolence.
I deserve this, really. Yeah, there are a lot of threads dangling. As I've already said, I'm drawing a series of eight pictures, and allowing myself to get distracted by other things while doing so. I'm going to finish all eight sketches before starting colouring any of them. This is in part because I intended to use these pictures to test out Paint tool SAI and I wanted to make the most out of the free trial (I can't buy it any time soon, as I don't have a proper personal computer t install it on anymore and probably wont have for a while).
Unfortunately circumstances prevent me from properly updating today. You aren't missing much, Day 147 wasn't all that impressive anyways.
