Comics art and boobers (by vemp)

wtf.. you color so fast.

Don't worry, I'll visit your art thread the way you're in here. That way you can leave P.S. notes for me too. Heh.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Omfg, I love you guys. Come be my personal artists please?

Also, if that was the cover image idea you were talking about, it's pretty fucking sweet. If I saw that as a cover, I'd totally want to read what was inside. And then if I saw it was MY writing, I'd want to read it more, because Rue is awesome

I was speaking idiomatically.

I'll be your personal artist anytime.

Also, this is the cover thing I was thinking about, but maybe I'm gonna do some more Rue fanart, and then move to the sequentials.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Wow, that is really, really hot.

Very nice work, vemp and Magi. Can't wait to see where this goes!

FELIPE NO

I would die a happy woman if it went somewhere, lol.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Ohh, man. I just stumbled into this thread and now I'm going to have to go find some crappy drawings to make myself feel better.... Damn you Vemp and your self-taught skillz! I'm going to go take my drawings down off the corkboard now.

In retrospect, I think Frank Cho was supposed to be self taught too... Wish I had the perserverence to do the same.

How ya doing, buddy?

Dude, keep your drawings. I keep my sucky ones, that way it would remind me to improve and best my former effort. And it's also a way for you to measure how your art is progressing.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

lol, i don't even have a corkboard.

it was just my way of expressing that you have a supior gift, and my envy of it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Just something to bump this thread.

A week or two ago, we had this drawing contest thing with my friends and fellow artists. The theme was to draw an undead, here's mine.



I need to draw some more. Stupid school. -_-

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Awesome, now there is something different. :3 You are really getting better at this fill in the darkness business. fading between the light and darkness is pretty naturally looking now, especially on the face. Hm, although I thought the shirt is rather clean cut for an undead. :b I think it'd be interesting if it is broken up more so we can see into it a little, but this is looking really good.

When you are working with other artist, and see different things people do, it really helps you improve. :3 Gotta have that competitive edge.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Thanks man. Working with other artists does have an advantage. Not only you can ask for tips and stuff, copy techniques, but you're given that competitive feeling. It's a great thing since you get to be motivated to improve or make something much better or on par with what the others are doing.

p.s. that's a new shirt.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Wow. Check out the boobers on that one. OWAI~ ;_;

That drawing's abit eerie. What's it say on the dog tag? And what's the deal with the gun.. it's around him? And where's that side boob?

FELIPE NO

It's one of those rifle straps, yo.

I started this fucker 2 (or was it 3) nights ago. 1st night was on pencils, then I stopped to study for an exam. The 2nd night I started on the inks. Then stopped halfway (or was it less). I posted the WIP in my journal. So then last night I continued with the inks, and stopped after a while so I can play some NFS: Most Wanted (why the hell did I bother playing that game anyway?). So earlier tonight, I said to myself, "fuck man, you need to finish that so you can start on some new stuff", "ok, let's do this." It started ok, I was inking it slow and nicely, adding details and stuff. And then I approached some problems. Mainly the shadows, the wall/concrete texture effect, misc. decorations (sup 2 vases), and some designs on the wall (failed chain design of some sort). Also, I think I kind of messed up the shadow on the column and the rest of the shadow thing at the bottom. I was kind of doing it in a hurry, made mistakes, then covered them up with lots of black. Oh well, gotta learn from your mistakes.



p.s. It's a Conan inspired art, even though it doesn't look anywhere close to Conan.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Wonderful. This is the best composition that I have seen from you so far. One thing to keep in mind when it comes to given then shadows is that, the light acts very linearly on objects. So I guess there could be several inconsistencies in terms of their placement throughout, in particular, the column. So that even though there is a shadow core, there shouldn't be light equality light at the backside unless there is a second light source. Inconsistencies in terms of shadows can reduce the depth to a considerable extend, and especially that you are using a strong contrast for shadows at this point.

How ya doing, buddy?

Yeah, I had a lot of problems with the shadows, especially the column and the wall. That's probably the part where it took me some time to start inking, and I messed up the bottom shadows, hence a lot of blacks in that area. I messed up a lot of stuff, I hope to correct them in the following pieces.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yeah, uhh.

I dunno why I never really noticed this thread before (what with being in #comics and all) but this stuff is incredible. If I just saw these images on the web somewhere, I'd assume they were drawn by a pro.

Awesome stuff, man. Spam moar drawings on IRC d00d

THEY ARE.

<3 Vemp.

I was speaking idiomatically.

lol what. that's too much, but thanks anyway.

(I guess I owe you guys some boobs drawings now, eh )

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Vemp, I've been following up with you stuff for quite sometime now. I've never posted here because I know nothing of hand drawn materials, so I probably couldn't say something constructive like magi.

Still, I have to say your works are amazing. Put some full color into it and it can even match CGs. You really must try selling your skills in the comic biz, at least part time for now.

FELIPE NO

Seriously, Vemp, this thread says boobers in the title, and the boober content is pretty lacking. Severely lacking, in fact.

Most amazing jew boots

scarlet, thanks man, I'm actually gonna try and color the last piece I did and see if it fares well. And don't worry jessy, the next one will probably have boobers.. that or sometime soon. -_-

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Happy Halloween GFF, and with that comes a halloween-themed drawing based on the comicbook "Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse", here ya go kiddies:



And I also tried coloring it. Here's the WIP:

Spoiler:

I also have a question for the photoshop saavy reader; how do you change the color of your lineart?

Comments, pizzas, and marbles are deeply appreciated.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Here's my first attempt at digital coloring:




I'll probably work on some boobs now.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

That's actually not a bad coloring job, Vempykins.

Remember what I said. No boobers, NO LIFE.
