Started this one too a simple with cartoon doodles inside. And here is the Filled inked version then time to ad some colour
Taft battle practice sketches, i tried to make it closer but fucced up on the top FT, trying to get rid off as much nevative space as possible
Ok so finished this one today and blacked out the PNDO background man do them fat sharpies stink haha
Needs more black! Not bad. For next time would definitely encourage you to get some 3d and an outer on there to pop it off, kind of like some of those vacation/travel ads. Would also encourage you to add some depth and movement to a fill like that... like maybe some light shadowing where figures overlap. Also in that idea, something like the guy on the rocket, if the back end of the rocket was finished and stuck out past the outline on the O it would give the appearance that he's flying into the fill instead of just flying inside it. You probably don't want to do shit like that in too many places but IMO it causes the elements of the piece to interact with each other rather than just existing side by side. Like the cap spraying the red fill and bird fishing for a worm among other things.
Thank you for the advice. I do struggle with the composition with doodles like you said making them interact or sometimes struggle thinking what to draw or where to even start lol I actually started with the frog but hey ho improve something every time I do a piece and eventually I’ll get there. Thanks ray il take note and apply
I like the fill itself, it has a 60s art feel to it. When I'm talking about interaction I'm not talking about the characters in the fill itself, although that would be another element you could work on. What I'm referring to is sometimes when people do their piece all the elements of the piece such as the outer, fill, clouds, etc., simply exist as one layer, each element side by side. There is no layering, it's all a flat look. But, for example, if you do some clouds around your piece, but then you have some pieces of cloud in the background, some in the foreground maybe floating across the piece, it gives a sense of depth, movement, interaction.
Fuck, this page is filled with some clean work on this page. Keep it up everyone. For the last few posts; Kaps2 that throw is nice, not much to critique there. For the handstyle, for me it looks a bit busy with the arrow and halo, they just feel a bit out of place and don't flow with the rest of the tag. Try taking it back a bit. IsaacNewton, loving your lettering on that Loco piece. ElbowMacK, solid pieces, very nice 3D block, just watch that you don't stray too far from your block letters Matt Wrigh, I'd say to slow it down, focus on your straightletters and letter forms, as theres some weak connections and bars in there, also watch your extensions don't dominate everything too much, keep a balance. Overall good work everyone
I did this piece for my buddy. He a huge DC titans fan. I picked up a bunch of chameleon markers yesterday. Threw this together for him. Let me know what you guys think?
Don't stray from block letter ? Do you mean the 3d from the letter or are you telling me to do basic letters?
