So I finally got my graphics tablet working…
My graphics tablet, a Trust 1200 Wireless Tablet has been lying unused in my bedroom for about a year, I once had a dream of doing a grand web comic called Men N’ Bots, but my Windows PC was too crappy to handle my leet skills. So I got a mac, and low and behold, my tablet didn’t work. Well long story short, I put some batteries in, and found some compatible drivers (not by Trust) and it works like a charm, and it’s truly great.
So to get to the point, I’ve been doing some drawing, and here’s one I’d like to show you…
Click for larger.
It isn’t perfect, but yeah it was like my second try, and I sortof cheated on the face, if you call tracing cheating. But I still need to master the art of faces.
and yes… OK OK, I promise my next one will not be of Evangeline Lilly. I promise, gimme a break, geez.
My Drawing Skills…
A few people have been curious about my drawing skills, I don’t draw that often so please excuse this, it could be considered rubbish, especially after that example i posted a bit earlier in the week.
Here we go…
That links to my DeviantArt account, which only has that on at the moment. I might update this and add another in a moment. Again, model is Evangeline Lilly.
Drawing Rocks…
Not actual rocks of course, but people, more specifically attractive female people…
Which brings me to a new piece of featured content here at gfxl. This is the kind of drawing I really love and it’s by Zindy Nielsen. i have put it side by side the original photograph by Tony Duran for comparison.
I absolutely love detail, so I try to mirror this style in my own drawing (I tend to draw from photographs too.) More on this later.
The model is of course Evangeline Lilly of Lost fame. Please don’t be surprised if you see more of her on this blog!
You can find more of Zindy’s drawings at her site Zindy.Zone.dk.
