Theyre not bad! :)

The main issue with them is they seem to lack a bit of depth to them, they do look quite 2D.

Thank you !

I know that they lack depth... That's mostly because I wanted to digitally paint them but I've never found time to finish them...

For some reason those pictures arent showing up.

Probably the links got lost in the forum conversion
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings

Yeah, sounds probable.

i would upload some of my own pictures but i cant be bothered uploading it to another site just to swap it to here.

Why not ? Let us see your work ! :)
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: debux on June 11, 2011, 05:45:39 PM
Actually, just checked. The links are there, but the code doesn't work on this forum. One would have to juggle with the codes a bit there
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Death Nade on June 13, 2011, 01:54:38 PM
Hey um, Silver Wolf?

Would it be to much to ask if you could re-post these pictures? My curiosity is torturing me :P
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Jubal on June 13, 2011, 06:28:37 PM
Fixed the code for you. :)

They're pretty bad, but my drawing has improved a bit since then.


Here's are some examples of my newer drawings :

Quite cool! I wish I knew about those characters though... what do you use for drawing? Is that actually a pen?
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Death Nade on June 14, 2011, 07:02:23 AM

I've used anything I could lay my hands on during school classes actually... These two were graphite pen (outlines & shading) & marker pen.
I didn't know much about shading back then, though.

Yeah, it's some kind of Khornegor, I guess...  ;)
I'd like to see some of your work... It's probably million times better than mine...  ;D

Art contest sometime?
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Silver Wolf on June 17, 2011, 12:33:47 PM
Maybe... I'll enter if somebody starts one but don't expect much. It's been so long since the last time I've drawn something...

Argh, Khan your getting slack with your necroposting :P

Do you guys use Photobucket to upload your stuff onto?
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: debux on January 17, 2012, 08:11:57 PM
I use minus, got used to it. Pretty darn easy to use, and doesn't have all the crap advertisement that some are filled with (from what I remember)

Got some inspiration after watching Angel - "Not fade away".

QuoteJoss Whedon says of this episode, "This was not the final grace note after a symphony, the way the Buffy finale was.
We are definitely still in the thick of it. But the point of the show is that you're never done; no matter who goes down, the fight goes on."
Whedon says that Angel is about redemption, "something you fight for every day, so I wanted him to go out fighting.
People kept calling it a cliffhanger. I was like, 'Are you mad, sir? Don't you see that that is the final statement?'"

](http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y499/0_SilverWolf_0/Drawings/Angel-Notfadeaway-112013_zps4517aefa.jpg)

Pencil on paper, as you can see.  ;)
I made it during one of my classes. It's still not completely finished, but I doubt that I'll return to do the finishing touches any time soon.
It didn't turn out to be the way I imagined it to be.

Anyway, it looks as if skills are slowly improving.
If only I had more time for this...

Now that is impressive, Wolfman! :)

I'm jealous of your skill. -_- I love the drawing though.
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Scarlet on December 12, 2013, 09:39:51 AM
Very impressive :) That is some serious skill.

At risk of sounding like a broken record, triumph points? :P

I usually don't like to show my unfinished drawings, but right now I don't feel like finishing this one.
It's very far from being finished actually, and the main problem is that I made on an A4 paper (rotated horizontally).
Due to that, drawing the face was very frustrating (it's really, really small).

(http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y499/0_SilverWolf_0/Drawings/KarenGillianWIP01_zpsfa02419b.jpg)

It' a bit sharper than the last one.
Which style should I pursue?
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Jubal on December 23, 2013, 05:47:50 PM
I suspect the less sharp one is easier to get looking right, sharp work is always harder to make effective. I do like both a lot though, very effective.

Also -> enter the site contest <- (please  :) )

Le Amy Pond.

Love it. :)
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Silver Wolf on December 23, 2013, 07:02:41 PM
@ Jubal: About of the same. The first one is more forgiving, the second one is more effective, I think.
Site contest? Did I miss something?

@CG: Oh, you recognized? I like recognizing stuff. Recognizing is good. :D
Or is it because of the name?

This, possibly?  :P
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Silver Wolf on December 23, 2013, 07:19:08 PM
Oh, that. :D

Never noticed it, I'm afraid.
I'd give it a try, but unfortunately I don't have my old acrylic paints anymore.
And making pencil sketches of landscapes is incredibly time consuming and unrewarding.  :-\

I'll see what I can do.
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Jubal on December 23, 2013, 07:23:46 PM
You can always reinterpret the prompt - just because the word is mountain doesn't mean you actually have to draw a mountain, anything that can be construed as related to a mountain or mountains, even metaphorically, is fair game.  :)

Merry Christmas people!  :)

Here's another one, since I've already scanned it.
It might actually be fun to see how it progresses.

(http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y499/0_SilverWolf_0/Drawings/25112013wip02_zps814d6105.jpg)

I'm not sure whether I should do the hair in colour or black and white...
The right part of the nose, lower lip and eyes will also be fixed.
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings

B-e-a-utiful! :o
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Silver Wolf on December 26, 2013, 12:35:42 AM
Thanks. I have a feeling that she'll turn out quite nice in the end. If I get the hair done properly, that is. :D


I should also mention that I feel like an idiot when I go back to the first page and see some of my old work. :P
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: comrade_general on December 26, 2013, 12:44:09 AM
Welcome. It should make you feel good to see how you've progressed. We can't all start out at a boss level; only a tiny few can do that. I'm not sure that I'm out of the fumbling amateur level yet. :P

Gotta sketch them all! ;D

Unfortunately, I have ruined this one.  :-\

(http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y499/0_SilverWolf_0/Drawings/26112013wip03_zps09d35e74.jpg)

The original plan was to do a few quick glazes of orange for background color.
But I forgot why I hate watercolours.
Now the paper's all wrinkled up and stuff.

I'll see if I can get it back to normal again.
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Silver Wolf on December 26, 2013, 09:49:59 PM
There was nothing I could do.

I had to burn it.
It's a sad, sad day. :/
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: comrade_general on December 27, 2013, 01:42:33 AM
Very sorry to hear that. :(

You could print out the original and keep working on that maybe?
Title: Re: Silverwolf's drawings
Post by: Silver Wolf on December 27, 2013, 01:50:38 AM
I thought about it, but if just doesn't feel the same way.

I'll go back for another go in a few weeks/months.

Hey that's alright; Tolkien restarted many of his works from the very beginning like ten thousand times. :)

I really need to finish this...
It's been sitting on my desk for ages now.

(http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y499/0_SilverWolf_0/Drawings/One_last_bow_WIP01_zps77d2ed0a.jpg)

And fix Matt's face.
Definitely fix Matt's face.
