Show us your drawings/artwork

Just started scribbling with my pen the other week whilst waiting on the phone etc - I got a bit focused on completing one of my doodles... it is probably way below standard to even share but it was done with a biro and that's pretty hard to get any decent end result. Anyways here is it...

I'm surprised this thread doesn't get more input?!

My latest project. (Or at least one of them..) Picture isn't the best but this is pencil and has then been spray glossed. All that's left to do is wet and dry/polish it and i'll be done. :)

Image is a bit big, sorry.. :p
 
Seeing as I posted when this thread last popped to the top, I think this deserves stuffing up there for the train enthusiasts:

This is somewhere ~40% complete, but shows the basic startup sequence for my current OpenBVE project- A Class 52 'Western'
There's an awful lot of bits missing (Cab side windows, many of the gauges aren't currently animating to name the most obvious ones), but still :P

The plugin that controls the guts of the loco (C#) is here for those interested:

I didn't want to start a new thread so i thought i'd post here... Do any of you guys have any experience with spray booths? The hobby type? I've got an airbrush and constructed myself a cardboard spray booth/catch if you will but would prefer something active that would remove the rubbish out of the air while i'm working. I have the following requirements:

* Will be used indoors in my man cave. (Loft, but have access to a window for the exhaust.)
* I will be painting glossing anything from phone cases, models, guitars, general paper/canvas artwork
* Budget, ideally under £100 but i'll go further if its required as the booth will be used a fair bit for creating a big chunk of artwork to be sold outside my normal 9-5 job

Any help would be awesome. :)

Still unfinished, but I doubt I'll ever get round to it. I keep doing a little bit, getting distracted and then forgetting all about it for months.

How is that done? PC? What software? It is stunning mate!!!!
 
This thread doesn't get used anywhere near as much as it should. Always love going back through it and seeing the artwork.

Wish I had more time for it, and I bet a lot of others feel the same!
 
Bump! Just had a good look through the thread and it seems a shame that its died. Some really talented folks on here :). Sorry if there's a more recent thread, also please point me to it.

Does anyone know any decent free video tutorials on Youtube? I got a Huion tablet a while back in an Amazon black friday sale and have just recently given it a go. I found it hard to get used to drawing on a tablet and looking at the screen, but after a few hours I got used to it, but the "art" i created looked like a child made it :o.

There is so much on Youtube its hard to know what is teaching you the right techniques etc, so if anyone knows a particularly useful video or tutorial that would be awesome. I am a complete noob and only just realised you can spin the canvas 10 mins after I finished my first picture...

Also post more art!

Nothing particular but it took me a few hours to get used to using my wacom for sure, I now love it :)

This was one of the first things I did on it:

Very nice, did you look at any guides or just mess about and learn for yourself?

Its so confusing when watching videos as one will say to use the smudge tool to bled, another will say thats what noobs do and to use low opacity and blend that way...

I only looked at shading techniques really, not much else. Mines based on using a solid cplcol layer effect over a sketch and then setting that layer to multiply, you then shade the darks or lights from there. It all depends on the colour of the base layer that's set.
