A Quick Character Illustration

Did this quick Illustration while testing new digital brushes. I have finally sorted out my digital brushes and have brought it down to selected 40+. Need to get rid of more and keep the number close to 10. Having less brushes gives you a uniform rendering style to all your artworks. Although I prefer traditional media, I felt quite comfortable using Kyle webster's digital brushes. Totally worth spending $15! :)

Tip of the day

'It doesn't matter how fast you have reached a level. What matters is how many levels up you are willing to go!'

Don't worry if you are slower then a few others, you can always make up for it by going beyond the point where rest of them decide to stop.

A few pencil studies...

A few studies done using the references on the internet. I wasn't sketching with pencils for over a month now. I just purchased a Cintiq 22HD a month back so was exploring the digital sketching options. To be honest I didn't enjoy sketching on Cintiq as I do on real paper. The main reason is that you don't get that natural feeling of paper on the Cintiq screen. I mean the pencil brush has texture but one cannot physically feel it on the smooth surface of the screen! Hopefully after spending more time on it I will get a better hold of it. After all I spent a lot buying it! :P :D

A Sneak peek at a few more designs I finished for my next sketchbook

This week I could get some time to finish a few more designs for sketchbook02. I am almost done with the sketches. Its time now to figure out other things. BTW if you have purchased my sketchbook01, I would love to hear from you about the print n paper quality. Although the paper cost me nearly 01 lac Rupees extra, But I don't mind using the fine quality paper again! :)

A few more digital skethes

Tried a few more digital brushes. Found a few cool brushes for sketching, But nothing can beat the good old pencil!
I think the feel of that pencil tip on the texture of the paper is just unbeatable and certainly not created digitally. I really need to get back to Traditional media for a change.

A few Digital Sketches...

A few digital sketches done while sorting out my Photoshop brushes. I tried each set of brushes I have downloaded/bought so far n tested each set n finally settled for around 200 brushes. Will be working with these on a few artworks until I find the best ones for Sketching and painting.
BTW I found some fantastic brushes in KYLE WEBSTER'S ULTIMATE MegaPack for Photoshop. You can Google it and you should find his Gumroad Store.
