I’m feeling very glad to have the chance and enough mood to start drawing again today. Here’s the pencil sketch of an original character I created (and posted) before. See the post: How to Create Characters from Random Scribble. Well, I choose the middle one and decided to draw him in different pose.
Somehow I regret my decision on giving false highlights which could be seen on the final result. However, it was quite fine when it reached the copic coloring stage. Too bad I did not take picture before it went bad. This is what the final result looks from the back as the copic pass through the thin paper. I think it’s even better than the final result.
The final result of today’s doddle. Doodlebuffet Sketch 1 April. Lessons learned: Try to avoid using Derwent tinted charcoal with copic. The copic’s smoothness can’t match the roughness of tinted charcoal. Also, be careful in placing highlights as this final result doesn’t satisfy me. Maybe my coloring just plays April Fool’s Day with me!
