Hemske's art/sketchbook

"The Girl with the Scarf" is amazing.
U just need to make some small improvements to the eyebrows (especially the left), to the eyes, around the eyes, under the nose and the mouth should be moved a little bit.
I really like the scarf and the hair is really great.
The rest can be solved by shading.
Really needs shading, u wouldn't believe how much can change it. In the current state the shading is too "shy".

 

[Hemske]

Thank you for your kind words sin. I'll see what I can do. I'm almost always struggling with being too afraid of shading the really high values, both lighting and shade. I really ought to get rid of that feeling, as a lot of times does that big difference and really brings the object to life, just as you say.

Some studies/gesture drawings and a sketch of Anna from Frozen. I draw dudes as well when I do figure drawings, don't judge me.

Really great to see that you're doing these studies, they will help you improve a lot :>

 

[Heinvers]

Those look good. Ana? I'm curious what will it be this time?

I demandz colorz on that one.

 

[Hemske]

@Hein, You even have demands now?!


...

Okay. Tomorrow you'll get colors. <3

 

[Idaero Ace]

I will do that too (figure sketches) after I finished my exams!!!
lol, maybe...

 

[Vinz]

That Anna looks good! The jaw bone, though, might be too large.

I also like the fact that you draw naked people.

 

[Heinvers]

I think that her jaw is ok. Any further downsizing of it may result in strange head proportion.

A third of the gray area.

This is kind of everything I have to post for today, but I promised Hein, so here's the colored variant.

[Heinvers]

Looks nice so far :3
You could make some kind of tattoo on her cheeks just for the sake of diversification.

You have been granted permanent access to Cookie Kingdom :>

 

[Vinz]

I suggest to rotate the facial features a bit (CCW), and her face could have some uneven tone.

Thanks for the input. I don't think this is a piece I'll be working more on as originally it was just a quick sketch for a friend. And I just splatted on colors due to Hein's request.

But I always appreciate it.

 

[Hemske]

Painted a madara.

Madararara

 

[Heinvers]

It's already very anime-ish. I like the color tone used for the face.

You should move his left eye (viewer's perspective) a bit to the right to make it more symmetrical.
Also add more highlights and shades please even if it's a bit early seeing that /that will add more volume to the hair.

I didn't see anything wrong with his left eye (viewer's perspective).
EDIT lol madararara, remind me to durarara

 

[Vinz]

I agree with Idaero. Also, the ear is too far from the eye area.

 

[Hemske]

I don't think I need to move his eye actually. But I agree on the ear and the highlights for the hair, that is true.

Still, thanks guys!

I decided I might as well post my drawings for Idaero Ace's weekly challenge thread here too. So here's the first one, last one was so unfinished so not that fun for you guys to see anyway.

Time to work some on that bulbasaur I hinted a while ago now!

 

[Heinvers]

Pretty awesome so far :3

 

[Vinz]

Looks great. If I may ask, how do you do these black and white pieces?

What do you mean? The process behind those kind of pieces?

 

[Vinz]

Do you use some grayscale filter, or draw them like that?

 

[Hemske]

I draw it like that. Just sketching very rough, then I pick a black brush and a white brush with pressure sensitivity for the opacity. And just paint in, usually I start with filling in the whole object somewhat and then I go for the lighting after the shadows.

I hope that answer it

 

[Hemske]

Long time no see. (3 months, damn)

Made some traditional sketches the last couple of days. Some studies of Disney's style in there as well.

Thanks!

And...

I was hoping you'd forgotten about that

But yeah, well. If it ever happens I will probably redraw that one from scratch, I think I can do better by now. D:

 

[Hemske]

Been ages since I was here but I'll post some stuff now. Wouldn't want you guys to believe I've died or anything.

These two were made for contests on Deviantart and Reddit, respectively.
