Theory isn't trivial, though it becomes second nature once you truly understand it, which is why it may seem so.

Don't worry about a canvas full of fail, too. You've gotta fail first before you get better, after all. One of the reasons why I like sketching with my tablet more than on paper is because if it turns out bad, I can just delete the layer instead of having to rip the page out of my sketchbook or something.

EDIT:
@cloviastudio
Oooh! I like that.

I've been trying to incorporate my lineart more fluidly into the picture, like what you did there.

I simply did't draw the lineart.
Drawing directly on the rough pic sometimes works better. Saves time as well.

But yeah, i get where you're coming from - i need to get teh stuff nailed down. In my head. I mean, when it comes to drawing from observation, i feel much more relaxed and can make something semi-decent - but with trying to make stuff up i just blank and end up with a canvas full of fail, because i don't know what i'm drawing or how i should be drawing it. This theory stuff always seemed so trivial, but apparently it's not. I just wish we actually did this kinda stuff in Art lessons... -.-

your lighting and the 'feeling of the character' is not bad!
I would suggest pay attention to the balance.
I mean, make sure the left side and the right side are the same.

Imitating is somewhat helpful but you do need some basic knowledge to master that kind of style, etc.
I agree with Daru that a canvas full of fail is nothing. It's better than a blank canvas

Ah, I see.
Still, though, you have a semblance of line in the picture - around the waist and arms for instance. I'd very much like to improve my linework; I don't quite like how I handle it, though experiments with other styles have typically gone awry for me.

Also, try not to double-post on this forum. If you need to add something, edit it into your previous post instead of making a new one.

Oops sorry, I'll pay attention next time. >double-post

I agree that linework is quite tricky. Sometimes I draw it sometimes I don't... depends on the content.
People say that if u want to master linework u need to do thousands of quick sketches. Oh well.

Gyaaaaa the English part of my website is almost empty I apologize for that.

I'm mainly using the Japanese part right now.

I do have an illustration book - or doujinshi - of Touhou Project published in Japan earlier this year. Still on sale.
Commercial illustration is part of my job as well =)

Agreed.

I wish I could make any money with my arts.

Publishing doujin is rather intimidating to me.

I was thinking about uploading more pics onto the website...all the time.
Soooooo looking forward to the wallpaper!!

It is hard - for that I'm not living in Japan.
There's seldom any market for this kind of things in Britain.

I like your landscape paintings in dA. There are loads of anime events in the states and I'm sure u can give it a try!

Thanks to both Cloviastudio and Quaraezha for now letting me have the pleasure of having a 1080P osu! wallpaper with osu! mascot Pippi in such a delightful art piece.
My desktop can now die happily.

All there needs to be now is a 'head tilt' Pippi and I would go insane.

Great job. Very cool coloring style.
Also, despite having seen two versions of this picture already, I didn't notice the off-center star on the shirt until now. That's a very interesting design choice and I like it

I noticed the offset star right away, but what I didn't notice until reading your post is that her shirt is actually partially transparent. Interesting, and very subtle.

It is?
I thought that it was just the lighting - warm-lit pink makes flesh-like tone.

I've been staring at it all day it doesn't look like it's transparent to me.

That would be an odd spot if it was a nipple.
I guess I could see the bra in her right boob but iunno.

I did some tinkering around with hue and contrast and whatever the hell the dodge tool in photoshop is to help make it a bit more obvious

http://puu.sh/3bu4 (400kb image so external link)

The line is very obvious on the right side (our left) but is a bit harder to see on her left (our right) due to the light reflection

anyhow, we're all looking into this way too much

Oh wow, I just assumed that was just part of the lighting.

I didn't find it to be transparent at all and just a coloring technique.

I think you were just tricking us into staring at her boobs more. Not that I'm complaining or anything.

ampzz 2011-07-09T02:49:36+00:00

If you ask me it's more a lighting effect than anything (perverse) else, still I love the work that Clovia did on both original drawing and colouring.
You have my thanks for my semi-permanent wallpaper for the next few months.

idk I wouldn't call it perverse, anatomy is anatomy. Clothing is clothing. Life is life. Art imitates life, and life imitates art.
