Why is being creative so hard
May. 13th, 2011 09:15 pmI AM NEVER COLOURING TWO TONE MATERIALS IN A STYLE THAT DOESN'T HAVE ALL SHADE ON A MULTIPLY LAYER. /KILLS EVERYTHING.
That said, the Joshua as Onion Knight picture is slowly plodding along for the first time in a while. I tried out some old things in combination (second layer of hatched inks, non-multiplied painted soft shadows, multiplied hard shadows), where I usually use one of these on a picture, and I think it's looking pretty good... except when I did the inks, I kind of forgot to give myself a light source so some of the hatching is a bit weird, which made my shades look a bit weird... and on top of that, I switched from watercolours to a plain old brush in SAI, so the shading style is a little bit inconsistent. I don't think it's too noticeable, but. Well. I guess you'll have to wait and see.
( Not going to show a full WIP, because it's so close to being done it seems kind of pointless. )
( A quick one-shot snippet + some blah blah blah. )
( Re-reading TWEWY Secret Reports. Results: Ten has forgotten a lot of canon. )
Now that all my assessments (not counting the project) for the semester are done, I can focus more on my upcoming piano exam and project work. Woo, I guess?
