A collaborative drawing/painting

[Jared_T]

Sure I use V-points all the time, I didn't use it in this character drawing as much as in some others, like this one, but I did want to track down the rooms horizon line. It's important to know where the horizon line is when drawing so I know what parts of the character are looked down at, straight ahead at, up at. So after I hunted down the horizon line I found that it was just over her head so I tried to draw her so you are looking slightly down at her. And seeing as the horizon line is about 7ft off the ground where my character is standing then everyone, except for characters on the stairs, the wall, or taller than 7 feet, should be drawn to be seen from above. How much above depends on the character, and how far away from the viewer.

And seeing as how I already figured out the horizon line and vanishing point I used them, as well as a quick sketch of the pseudo room dimensions, to determine the scale for Zorafin's character.


I'm also looking forward to seeing what others have come up with.

I probably won't have anything serious up soon, busy with a project deadline and a few exams. ;w;

Jared_T that explains a lot, awesome, it shows how many details and perfection you wanna add to your drawings, as for me, I only use VP to draw buildings and cities, I leave the character's proportions to my lazy imagination

I probably won't have anything serious up soon, busy with a project deadline and a few exams. ;w;

No worries, thumbs up for the exams!!!

Everything looks super good everyone. It'll be interesting to see the final piece. I am excited! Jared's VP and guides are so useful XD. I didn't think anyone would go so in dept like that.

Anyway, just wanted to cheer you all on!!

ps(if that's your sketch Qoxolg... wtf have I been doing with my life?)

Well.. my line work would look something like this nowadays, because I don't like doing it anymore:

Spoiler!

It used to be as clean is this though:
(warning, 3 year old drawing)
(Warning II, very big picture..)

Spoiler!

After that picture I think I lost my sanity and vowed to never ever line a background ever again.. and I didn't. I think a year later I ditched those clean lines altogether and learned how to paint.

[Shinureal]

Wow that's a pretty huge picture, my internet died lol
Me too I don't like lining bgds, except the cases when I wanna give them a cartoonist look.
For digital paintings, here's an example of the best bgn lining I can get :

Spoiler!

Because most of the cases, I only line the characters, and then directly start painting the bgd.

I wanted to, but I don't have a pso2 character anymore. Don't believe in the sig either lol.

Wow that is pretty insane. I could never do anything like that. I'd give up half way lol. My line art on background is always a pretty sad sight. Basically I do what Shinureal does. Draw basic lines for background and then just color over it. Cus backgrounds needs no line!

[Zorafim]

Yeah, Qoxolg's pretty insane. In every way imaginable. I'm sad you won't be participating.

[qoxolg]

Am I? I guess I am a little crazy

I just finished the PSA-JAM example art now, so I will be able to paint up Q for this one, very very soonish
