Morna, is Hellboy on a motorcycle?

[morna]

Ok I had to look again but there is definitely an aspect of speed - or at least directional forces to it. ;)

I'm sorta amazed I can even draw Hellboy - I never tried before this thing... I guess it's because he has so many very specific physical traits... 'makes it a bit easier and so so fun! forces looseness too!

its funny, i did a lame-o version of this for my half yearly project. i'll see to it that i upload mine up to new grounds or sumthing

[JohnThompson]

Thanks, jinnaboy, for finally clearing up my confusion. I knew they were goggles all along!

I tried to draw a one of my own, but when I tried to email it to myself, It said "invalid address". Is there another way to post the drawing, or am I having problems because I'm using a Mac?

[jinnaboy]

its the evil mac. gotta blame the mac

oh, and glad to have helped

[morna]

I have had problems with this too. The best option seems to be: put your e-address in both slots and even though it says it didn't work it sometimes does anyway. Lookin' foward to seeing yours JT

JT - SpongeBob Crotchclamp! Or at least his best friend. I hear this was one of the early designs before the much darker, Mignola-inspired, SpongeBob movie was put aside.
;)

Gary! Even though you announced what you were doing I found my self guessing at what you were drawing. So much for my brain functions. But I'm surprised at how much the black shapes really made it a haunting scene.

[KoryBing]

Haha! Patrick with a crotch clamp. So very wrong, yet so very funny.

[gary bolt]

At first the idea that instead of running out of ink your sketch "undraws" itself from the beginning bothered me. But now I think it can be used to add to the "what's he drawing?" reaction

You can also "pencil in" your drawing with fine lines and use them as extra fuel when you lay in heavy lines, shading and blocks of colour. The program doesn't seem to measure "how much" ink you use but rather "how far" the pencil travels on the page. Super fat lines and really fines lines use up the same amount of ink. If you start with an outline that will get covered up you can keep going while that line disappears, even though it's covered and the ink meter says you've run out.

Wow thanks ! high praise indeed coming from you - the queen of the awesome Christmas avatars! :)
edit: actually I wish I knew how to select the dark bits and just shift them over a bit - it's bugging me that it's so lopsided... it needs its symetry back.

JT another great HB drawing...

Tad: THANKS A HEAP! I just know I'm going to be seeing a lot of the back of Gary's head for a few days! :rolleyes: - as long as he doesn't bite my finger off to get at the computer. (actually really thanks, I love the thing too )

Where was I when this thread started? A real fun thread indeed.

But I don't know what to do after I drew it. I tried sending it to my e-mails and nothing showed up. I got the link in my e-mail account. Please...somebody help me. :confused:

Thanks in advance.

[Tad]

The good news is that there's no paint limit on this one.

The bad news is that there's no paint limit on this one. Prepare to lose hours to messing with it. And speaking of messes:

Skip to the end. How do I kill it?

Actually, I set the speed on high and it took no time to watch. Fascinating as usual watching how another artist constructs a drawing.

This one's a lot more easier than the last art gadget, so I'm less embarrassed to show my results.

Both are really nice, Petersen. Nice to see you work with such authority. I'm gonna have to try me another one.

[E. Spears]

wow, mine is all crappy compared to Petersen's and Tad's pictures. Great jobs, yous guys. I think I'll have to give it another try.

[Petersen]

Thanks Tad, I really like working this way, I build a lot of color and push things back and forth...It feels kind of like my watercolor process in some ways

Sweet Roger, Petersen. I'm still getting used to this thing, but it looks like you've mastered it. I'm not that very comfortable working with color, that might be why I'm haveing making something that works.

let's just say that I practicaly became one with the undo button. ;)

It's a very kool character - fun to draw. I hope we see more of him in the BPRD universe.... and here!

Hey morna, Speaking of doing things the hard way, I heard that Adam Hughes colors his covers using the mouse. You heard it right, A MOUSE!!! Amazing. He also doesn't use the air brush or the brush commands. Wow!

So whatever works, I guess

[morna]

now there's a nutbar! I mean it's one thing to torture yourself for hours once - for fun but he must have a masochistic streak the size of my arm to do it for a living!

I think fir darrig was longer ;)

I love watching you build an image - very watercoloury

I believe it is Gary whom we must visit and kick the pants of for resurrecting this thread. :evilangry

So. Freaking. Addictive.

And yet I'm quite crappy at it. There's a slight sluggishness and stickiness to it that makes it as though you're trying to paint while drunk.

So here's a drunken Mignola swipe (http://artpad.art.com/?j1gaqj10sfjw).

It's the swipe that's drunken, not the Mignola.

Yeah, play it fast or skip to the end. It takes a while and there's a mess of stuff that I ended up painting over.

[Otto66]

ruta?
That, would make a great t-shirt.

[gary bolt]

I believe it is Gary whom we must visit and kick the pants of for resurrecting this thread. :evilangry

So. Freaking. Addictive.

How can you curse my name for resurrecting this thread and sumultaneously post such a stunning drawing! I can't say enough that I learn from every one of these drawings. Ruta, your use of splattery paint can is brilliant - you've somehow even captured the Kirbyesque flame style that Mignola used on the original cover. The aortic finish to your drawing is brilliant!

More, I say! More! From everyone! More! More! More!

And no more of these pleas for us viewers to skip to the end. Viewing on high speed I understand - but skipping to the end? That's just crazy talk. The beauty of this thing is watching the drawing unfold.

Wow, I'm proud. My name actually means "lower situated pasture / meadow", as in a patch of land owned by a forefather. Fertile yet wet, but probably good for growing barley and grain stuff, to cook up great beers and ales from.
If enough sun'd be provided that is, 's why I'm always so darn cheerful. (Or would that be the lager talkin'?).
