Day 7 - Immortan Joe

Drew from a screengrab which I'm... kind of terrible at. Everything always ends up way too stiff when I try to go direct from reference.

My goodness, everyone's inks are so damned good lol

I gotta get better! I'll (ideally) have day 6, 7 and 8 up tomorrow. 6 kinda took me a while and I'm debating between coloring it or not now lol

For day 6, the Crestfallen Knight tells us some jokes ... or is he being serious?!?!

Wasn't able to take the pics yesterday and I know I got to stop excusing myself but I need to stop rushing these out and take my time =/

Day 6:

Day 7 (Super sloppy coloring =/):

Also, RagingSpaniard, god damn. I just really love all of your pieces, you're amazing at shading/details and expressions.

Just quick and dirty practice.

@H.Protagonist:

Thanks! I like how deliberate the choice of your lines are in your piece, especially the little details like the thumb swirl. Will definitely check out that thread for some days, should be fun to do portraits of GAF.

Cheers. Just following the outlines of my original pencil sketches, but the frayed tip of the brush makes for some awkward lines. Sometimes, like with the thumb swirl, I'm OK with that, though. :) And you should definitely pop into the portrait thread. It's my (rekindled) morning routine to try my hand in there, and it's a great warm up. Certainly gets me some Inktobers under my lazy belt...

Really not a fan of how this turned out, but wanted to stay on schedule so I have to submit *something*:

I've seen your art for awhile now RS and it's always been really impressive. For a inked work such as this, how long would you say it normally takes you?

Thanks man (nice drawing!) Id say it takes me about an hour and a half per drawing. This last one I drew while watching wrestling sooo I wasnt paying close attention haha
 
Impossible for me to do something everyday given my real 8-5 job as well as current projects but participating nonetheless whenever day I can:

Update: Days 7 & 8 (I think)

This one was a product of being frustrated that I couldn't get the sketch to look like her; it ended up being probably the best hand drawn piece of art that I've created, so far

And going along with that style:

I didn't quite capture the free-spirited happy-accident composure of Leah... But, hopefully it's something I can work at having happen consistently, not just out of frustration, lol.

Everyone else's are looking awesome! Thanks GAF for turning me on to this.

For the artists doing ink washes, my college roommate Mike Henderson, who draws Nailbiter for Image, is one of my favorite inkwash artist. May provide some good inspiration

Heres some of his art

Nice! Those are impressice. On that topic, any tips? I'm a newcomer to inkwashes and I've just been using watered down India ink on water color paper.

I like to start reeeal loose, you seem to be starting off with medium tones where I would probably cover the area with a really washed out gray and then build up from there, barely ever going full black on inks.

It actually does the opposite for me, I spent a good half hour or so going in every other (deadly) direction like the graveyard and New Londo Ruins so when I finally noticed this route that I should've been taking it was more like sweet relief.

Super happy with this one, the moment where that damn dragon scares the shit out of you in Undead Burg and the framerate goes to shit was fantastic.

This is also a drawing I could end up painting up, doesnt always happen with inked art

I like the idea that eventhough sure "the chosen undead" youre still just a dude who is practically hollow, no different from other enemies in the game.

I JUST started reading The Way of Kings! Its my right before sleeping book so progress is slow, but Im digging it so far.
! That's awesome, it's some damn good fantasy and Sanderson is a big art fan who likes to pack his books with as much eye candy as he can responsibly commission. :p Enjoy!

Relevant to Inktober - Ben McSweeney aka Inkthinker, the main illustrator for the books, has some awesome inks. People should check out his stuff for some inspiration.

I got super lazy about putting up my drawings, so here's days 5 - 8. I've got a couple more that I still need to scan, so I'll try to post them later today.


Maybe I should hit that portrait drawing thread the next time I'm running low on ideas.
