VIDEOS/ART – Drawing Lara Croft From Digital To Drawn On Paper: Part 02

The final digital Lara Croft drawing starts in earnest, in this video.  Not only that, but I try something completely knew that I’d never tried before.  Namely, I use a CG model to draw over.

Clipstudio Paint has the ability to import CG models for drawing.  I’ve always like the idea but I’d never tried using them.  Not until now.

I imported a CG mannequin and used it come up with a pose I’d like to use.  Once I found a pose I moved the camera to where I wanted it and drew over it.

How helpful was it?  What was the result?  How much of what CG model did I use?  Did I modify my drawing away from the CG model?

Watch the video and see…

And just as I did with part 01, there’s you can watch the real time video for a more in depth look at the drawing process by clicking here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/patron-only-real-20378365

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.

VIDEO/ART – Drawing Powergirl Part 04: Creating An Art Nouveau Background

Here’s the last of the drawing Powergirl videos.  It’s time to refine the background and make it look nice.

In this video I show how I put each individual Superman shield into the ring around Powergirl and figure out how to make Clipstudio Paint give me the radiating line work I wanted.

It was kinda frustrating.

This video is only six minutes long and the actual drawing part is about three to four minutes.  If want to see the video in realtime to learn something, along with my commentary in realtime, you can watch it on my Patreon.

ART/VIDEOS – Drawing Powergirl Part 03: Digital Inking

Time to ink.  Well,…after I fix the face up a bit.

Everything is ready for the final line.  This took about an hour to do in realtime but I condensed it to a three minute time lapse video.

I do a commentary, talking about the process.  However, if you want to see a deeper, more explanatory version of the inking process in realtime, join my Patreon at any level and you can see the Patreon exclusive video there:
