As for the art, well, I just wish I could see it through the eyes of another. I know I'm really hard on myself but gaaahh I just cant seem to look at my art (especially my newer attempts at cartooning) and like much of it! I guess comparing my art to gods like Glen Keane isn't helping too much either.... But I dunno, I often compare my old art to my new art and think "was I way better at that style??" But I'm determined to nail this cartooning thing. I guess I'm just not used to adding much movement and emotion to my artwork, it was always "OMG PRETTY HAIR" and "PRETTY SHADING AND OVERLY COMPLEX DESIGN". I feel like when I was trying to stop drawing anime aaaaalll over again, nothing fits just right or looks right. Baaah but anyways. Enough with the tld;r! I've got some recent sketches and some rough paintings! Yeah!
Here we have an old sketch I decided to paint quickly, trying new brushes. I may or may not polish this!
Another work in progress of a character in the works! This one I plan to fully render, though I'm not used to painting this kind of character so its a little weeiirrdd!
Trying to get some movement and emotion in my sketches, I don't hate them I suppose.
Again, more sketches for movement mostly emotions GAAAAH Y SO HARD
More sketches and coming up with new characters!
And some character developing sketches!
More to come soon!
Wowwwwww your style has changed so much! I know what you mean though, when you switch styles it's like adopting a whole new way of thinking, and it's incredibly tedious. But I think going from anime to realism is harder, because at least now you've studied the human form and you've got a better grasp on how to stylize it. :) AND IT LOOKS AWESOME BTW, the expressions rule and I especially like Michelle's poses in the lower right of the first page of sketches. Good work bro. <3
