My non Gaffer friend has put in a request for her portrait and given permission to post her picture:
Either of those two are fine, she said

been a long ass time since I've done any painting but this was the latest post when I checked the thread so I said fuck it LETS ROLL

was worth a shot at least. she looks really familiar to me.
 
More pictures, please! Clear, preferably hi-rez, interesting angles, no props, no sun glasses photos desired~




Niiiiiice. I love the color smudge in the glasses. It fills me with some kind of undefinable squee.

Thanks! my goal is smudge and sludge and minor blending. If I were a tad more rich I would slap more paint on.

Douple post, but had a lot to reply to. ^_^;

THIS TOOK ME LONGER THAN ANCTICIPATED LOL
so i won't be doing many in this style but i will be back to do a few more in the month! :D

Just going to try a "quick style," she says. :D This has to be one of my favorites from you. I love the baby's pose and the sun burst background. The screen they used in the original photo was worked well into your design, too. Looks so texture-iffic~

Milk update: Still alive! They're still sitting on the porch too...


Oh subbed. I might try my hand at a quick paint of one of these posts. :D

Yes! Please do! We need more doodle hands in here.

You don't seem out of practice in the slightest. It came out fantastic. You really nailed the pose, and I love the sultry punch to her expression. Nice work.

*___* It's...beautiful! I can't believe you painted mine. Lucky!

If your goal is to be an awesome painter, then consider it met. The blue highlights in the eyes are really intriguing, and the gradients in the hair are wonderful focal points. I also adore the kind of richter scale peaks on the shoulder and hair. There's something very electronic about it. Another nod to the shadow of the internet addiction in the depths of my eyes? :D

Saw this this morning but wanted to wait for her reaction to respond - she loves it! Nice job, and thank you!

She cosplays a lot, and has a cosplay page, so maybe you've seen one of those? Other than that, I don't know.

The legend.

Well, i tried.

I have't been drawing that long/much before because i'm always lacking in motivation and inspiration, but since i like drawing people and my account just got verified (!!!), this thread is god send for me. My drawings tend to have that "ghostly" look btw, can't help it.

 
Just having fun and all, but if people request pics, it would be nice if they returned and checked the thread. Especially if they get a stunner like Prax's. I'm looking at you, JasonMCG.



Anyone care to do mine?

Pre-3rd coffee, so it came out a bit...simple? Might go back and do the tie's texture or something to give it a little bump. Hmmm...

Welcome~

Looks great! I love the sketchy-smudgy look. Hope you do a lot more. :)

Very cool thread and a lot of great artist here.

Would you guys consider drawing my beautiful (to me) girls, please ? That would be awesome.

Thanks, she likes this one too. I think you have a distinct style going on that - IMO - would look really cool with pastel or watercolors.

I love this so much, great job!!


I don't usually post my pictures on GAF, but I really like the drawings I'm seeing here!

Either one, I don't wanna be greedy!

(sorry for the bad lighting, I had better pictures but I lost them when my phone stopped working)

I was going to draw the Radiohead noose coming to life off the wall and trying to go around your neck at first, but it seemed a bit too gruesome when I started doing it, haha.

Posted in the other thread some time ago but I guess the dude got bogged down, unfortunately :( ah well!

If anyone wouldn't mind having a crack at me that'd be awesome :) Thanks heaps!
I'm the tall, lanky dude in both of these photos.

Wanted to do a full body shot for a change and this one was nice and clear. But, yeah, fuck stripes. :p

I love this so much, great job!!

Oh! That came out nice, heavy! I can totally picture what you were thinking with the noose, too. Would have been a cool touch, but yeah, unintentionally gruesome as well. Haha.

Thank you, that's pretty cool! The noose thing does sound gruesome, but I wouldn't mind.

The shirt folds were fun, but I made you look kind of angry? ^_^;


Thank you. I really like your style.

Cheers~ Glad you like it. I don't think I did your expression justice, though. It was a nice, clean pic with a real Law and Order feel about it. You look like you're about to prosecute some bad guys or something. :D


Great to see this thread back up again, I did a couple while watching the game. Thank you all for posting !!!

Sweet stuff, awilliams! Love your style. Thought Vazra's came out particularly well. You captured the mischievousness perfectly.

Thanks! here's one more. (I should probably get a scanner)

Oh yes, i love watercolor art, but i'm still a bit intimidated by it. There's not a lot of room for mistakes.

I love this so much, great job!!

Thanks you so much!
 
First off I'd like to say that all of these drawings/paintings are so amazing.
I had no idea how talented everyone here was, I'm utterly shocked at the skills you all posses.
I'm most certainly envious.

With that being said, here I am

I sure hope I get picked!

EDIT: Serious Dad and Son is My favorite so far. The crossed arms baby and background colors are a perfect inclusion

Wow. Seriously, wow. The sparkle in the eyes, the sheen/cut of the hair, the shadow work... I love it. Haven't been drawing for long, my ass! :) You're great and yes, you should get a scanner. I'm super jealous of how good you are. I was going to just post my quick sketch, but now I'm forced to go back and make more effort on it thanks to you. Haha.

Didn't mean to sound so fakehumble :D, It's just that almost all the time and effort i've spent on drawing has been dedicated to portraits, put me in a position where i have to draw below the chest area and my previous insecurities start to make more sense, im reeeally bad at space management for starters. That's why i'd rather leave the more wackier pictures (like the one above) to people who can go wild with their skills.

Found a piece from way back when i was just starting, dated summer 2014. So okay, time flies, but sometimes i can go months at a time without really drawing anything, but with this and Drawing a Day -thread i may have found the motivation i often lack.

Unnecessary, since you clearly have a way with the pen, but i'm glad you liked it! :D
