Here's my twenty-seventh illustration for Drawrch. It's an old lady with her cat!
This was a little bit of a quickie cartoon. As always, I used the Procreate Pencil brush for the sketch, and my new favorite, the Syrup brush, for everything else.
For this one, I used the Procreate Pencil brush for the sketch and the Syrup brush for the lines and everything else. I also made use of Procreate's symmetry drawing guide.
This one had problems from the start. First, I had a hard time getting my sketch to look close to the reference image. Then I had a hard time deciding whether or not to color the lines (I chose not to, in the end). I screwed up the teeth a bit, which should include some clue that there's a bottom set. Finally, I tried and failed multiple times to get a glow on the guy's skin without making him look oily - another failed experiment.
In the end, I just ended up doing a quick gradient over large parts of the colors, which looks decent enough. I just with it could've been better.
Might be time to go back to cartoons for some of the last drawings this month!
I used the Procreate Pencil to sketch, the Syrup brush for the linework, and the soft Airbrush at the end for some highlights. The reference image was from SketchDaily.
I had to have oral surgery today. It was a necessary thing, but my mouth is low-key hurting right now. Maybe that's why I liked this image for today - because there's a happy mouth?
I'm keeping it simple for this one again because I've got a lot of work to do later on my iPad and I don't feel like spending a ton of time drawing on it right now.
Once again, I've used the Procreate Pencil brush for the sketch and the Syrup brush for the linework.
As usual, I used the Procreate Pencil to sketch, but I tried a new brush this time and did my coloring with the Inka brush. I really like the rough edges it leaves - I just wish it could have gone a little bigger for the background. My goal was to create a more realistic drawing in a short amount of time though, and it really helped with that.
Time-lapse below. If you watch the beginning closely, you'll see a few misfires I had with another drawing. The reference photo was of a woman's face at an odd angle, and I just couldn't get the proportions right.
This is my twenty-first illustration for Drawrch - that's three weeks down!
For this one, I used Procreate's Syrup brush for the lines, the soft Airbrush for a couple of fades on the character and the background, and the Hartz brush for the noise in the background. Sketched with the Procreate Pencil brush to start.
I channeled the player character from Animal Crossing for this one, a little bit.
This one was done entirely with Procreate's Syrup brush, except for the painterly swirl in the background, where I used the Old Brush to add the brush strokes.
Well, this is my eighteenth illustration for Drawrch - and I barely made it in this time. It took a lot longer than I thought it would, but there was just something about the sketch that made me want to spend more time getting it done properly.
For this one, I used Procreate's Syrup and Airbrush brushes once again. It's based on a reference image from SketchDaily.
