Drawing Lara Croft: From Digital To Drawn On Paper: Part 01

July 26, 2018 in ART, VIDEOS

ART/VIDEO – Drawing Lara Croft: From Digital To Drawn On Paper: Part 01

So far I’ve shown how I draw the digital part of the postcards I make but I’ve yet to show how I do the final paper version.

I’ve decided to show the whole process from digital to final hand drawn paper.

These video are sped up.  Originally the videos I will show were recorded over a number of days.  In real time, they clock in at two hours each.

I’ve reduced them to about ten minutes each.  I comment over each video so you can understand the process.

This is the first video and in it you will see me struggle to come up with a drawing, and even after I finally find a drawing I think I like, I’ll eventually start it over in the next video.

The reason I’m posting this video is to show that the process is not easy. No matter how experience you get, it still tough.

The real time video is going to be available to my patrons only.

Here’s the link to that version:

If you want to ask me a question about drawing that you might be struggling with…

If you want to suggest a character or drawing you’d like me to draw, feel free to ask or suggest away, either here on my comments or anywhere else you’d like to contact me.

Just be aware that my Patreon patrons get their questions answered first and they get to see the videos weeks before anyone else.

Cornerbooth #19 Interview with Bill Deli

July 19, 2018 in PODCASTS, VIDEOS

PODCAST/VIDEO – Cornerbooth #19 Interview with Bill Deli

If you only listen to one Corner Booth episode ever, this the one to listen to.

We had a “live studio audience” in this one and they participated.  Asking EMMY AWARD WINNING art director Bill Deli questions and getting some amazing answers.

Also, I had asked my Facebook drawing group if they had any questions they wanted Bill to answer and I ask him during the show.

This episode is chalk full of information that will blow your mind.  Not only that, but it’s extremely funny.  We had a great time recording this.

This is the last of the unreleased Corner Booth episode.  Let me know what you think.  Should we make more?
