P3nT's Shoops

hahahaah i totally get that. i usually go with a sloppy scribble style cause i dont have the patience to do that either lol

If you click the pic for the big version have a look at the bottom of the neckline of the teeshirt, you'll see where I started to draw in the fabric as a series of small white stripey bits. Some of the photorealistic stuff on Deviant Art took 50-100 hours. I couldn't bring myself to pour that much time into one fucking picture so I spend ages on the faces cos it's interesting but fabric and any other stuff that hasn't got eyes in bores me real quick

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

Yeah, I don't know if it's because things like fabric and buildings and furniture are man-made, or because there's a lot of geometric stuff to them, but they're boring as fuck to draw.

And I don't think anything looks overblended, the contrast is always there when you need it.

[P3nT4gR4m]

Moar of the same. Can I shoop the entire cast of True Blood?

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

Stunning. Yes, do.

Eyebrows are a little off...looks easily fixable though.

I hate drawing eyebrows too, they almost always do that. Takes a few passes.

[P3nT4gR4m]

I'm guessing it's going to take about another 4 hours to finish. I'm going to try and do the teeshirt fabric and the bandanna. maybe add another couple of hours for that shit. All in all about 3 days, give or take.

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

It'll be awesome. 

[P3nT4gR4m]

Story so far...

Nice work Pent, the shirt and bandana texture looks really good.

What's the next step after mastering photorealism?

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

YES.  

I think ya just fixed it on ONE day.

Bolloxed if I know. I want to come up with my own style but I got no fucking idea what that might look like. I think, sooner or later I'm going to have to try out colour, I guess. I've heard you can really express yourself that way. Fucked if I know how tho 

[Triple Zero]

you were going to doodle geiger alien crap into those multiscale turing patterns--that's a pretty original style

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

Or just the naturalistic stuff with one jarring little Giger-type detail someplace...

[P3nT4gR4m]

2 hours later and it still looks the fucking same  This is why I hate detailing

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

I can see what kind of chain he's gonna have now. The beard hairs look more prickly. Generally more alive-looking.

whatever it was you did with the skin is fucking amazing.
