For Criticism, ???? and Profit.

Trying to get into the habit of drawing on a more regular basis at the moment, so I thought I'd try to document my exploits on video, warts and all. Beware: dodgy stock music inbound...

Not as good as the last one. Spent much longer on it than I wanted to; didn't think enough about the anatomy before I started.

Thanks man :)

The main thing I want to work on at the moment is speed, so I'm trying to keep these sketches as quick as possible, and do lots of them. If anyone has any requests, do fire away - I can't promise quality, but I'll happily give it a go.

Next video on sunday.
 
sounds great! But if you can do this kind of quality artwork so quickly, I wonder what you can do with a bit of time :eek:

Edit- I just scrolled up this tread and saw your painted Gary Oldman :eek: , your a real artist prof!
 
Thanks guys :D

As promised - a new video:

<object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6QreHypFqG4?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6QreHypFqG4?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="360" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

Still a few mistakes, but I'm much happier with this one than I was with the last one. Spent too long on it (again) as I'm really trying to limit myself to 15 minutes, but I think the end result was worth it.

Forgot to mention actually; this one and the first one are playing at 2x speed, the second video was 4x.
 
I do indeed, yeah. Despite dalliances with all sorts of other programs, I generally just use the tablet to draw straight into photoshop.

Also, as there'll only be one video this week (albiet a bumper episode), something I drew today when I was waiting in the barbers. Must stress that they had photos pinned up that I'm assuming were from their halloween night out; they don't usually dress this way (that I'm aware of).
 
One of the other forums I frequent has recently been overrun by spambots promoting Ugg Boots. Hence, I have commemorated the occasion thusly:

<object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gDI1JEeJeFA?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gDI1JEeJeFA?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="360" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

It could really have done with about another hour or so to refine it and fix the mistakes, but the bots are beginning to change to flogging Canadian down jackets, and I wanted it to stay topical.
 
Thank you :)

I actually have another more realistic painting in similar style to the TTSS one on the go at the moment as well, but unfortunately I don't know when I'm likely to get it finished. Might be something to tinker with over the holidays...
 
Heh, cheers man. Unfortunately, I wasn't too happy with the likenesses in the Breathless one - might go back for another stab at it some time.

I really want to do a Bande à Part themed illustration as well, but I've been toying with the idea of doing it via conventional methods rather than on the tablet, so I'm not sure I'd be able to video that one.
