Sorry that it's not a full version.
But using tablet causes pain in my wrist... so sometimes it takes long... I just thought you'd like to see something... as long as I promised. Somehow I like the cropped version. ^^

Hope you like it!

I like it - the colours are so unusual. And you did a great job with the shadows on her hair. It seems so real.

Thank you! But in truth the colors are not original... and very close to original version though I didn't see it when I was choosing colors.

Thank you! I think it just fits here perfectly. My choice of colors is not very different from original work *which I haven't noticed before I choose colors so the similar colors are coincidence*.

Thank you!
Ehh... I wanted to finish it... but my poor wrist... so I need a break from digital drawing not to hurt my wrist more. And in truth I like the cut version because of unusual composition.

*It's like a recent poll option - "my works are never truly finished"*. I always feel like changing something - especially the temptation is big with digital works *for obvious reasons*!

L-lolll.. I can image the pain!
I try tu color in digital (lol, some failed experiments, so shame, if you want to see, i will send to you XD ), and my wrist was died... Because i was coloring with mouse...
My sister give me a little tablet, but i never use it!

Do you use mouse, right?

Oh yes, this cut version looks so vivid!
I can only suggest to give on background more shade (or clouds), but she's rteally amazing!

AngieVX In reply to illusorya [2011-06-05 14:46:33 +0000 UTC]

I'm coloring with tablet , but I guess - a wrong height of table/chair or my position is not really correct...

*LOL, my mouse works are also quite funny... but I guess not of them are recolored now or on another HD - hard to find*

No clouds... because...


...suspense



...don't laugh



...it's supposed to be water ^^ I have to work on it because it looks pretty empty and boring now,

Ohhhh... I like the idea of water!
I'm sure you made a great job!

Eh eh... i feel so stupid with digital color... Also now i try to color with photoshop, but i feel double stupid and after all, i hate it and take my pencils...

AngieVX In reply to illusorya [2011-06-05 15:24:55 +0000 UTC]

Trust me, there's nothing like coloring with traditional media. Photoshop is fun and good for experiments - but you never get the same sensation like with traditional. And I guess digital coloring is simply not your thing. I mean your works are so expressive and vivid, full of emotions, and there's always a little piece of chaos - the little piece of chaos that digital works lack.
You can control every little stroke with digital media - but that's what makes traditional works unique, more vivid.

illusorya In reply to AngieVX [2011-06-07 10:56:46 +0000 UTC]

Damn, you made blush my face...
Thank you!

Anyway... yes... a lot of people that always made traditional art, and now passede on digital art, i think delete a lot of emotions that i feel with traditional...
I know the style is always unique, but... yes, as you say, with digital you can retouch always the work....
And, as i always say...
The best thing is getting your hands dirty!
And also trash a work ruined... I know is very bad feel, but is also an emotion to be angry for a work ruined...
In digital art, i think you feel nothing emotion like this...

AngieVX In reply to illusorya [2011-06-07 13:03:08 +0000 UTC]

I partially understand those people who switched to digital. Especially professional illustrators. I guess it's easier to get a commission if your art is all shiny packed with special effects, high-res, neat-looking and so on. It's easier to make adjustments if the customer wants to add something. You can work really fast, you can use processed photo backgrounds, digital textures. It's pretty comfortable for commercial use. But it lacks the true uniqueness - when the only one original exists - and everything else is a copy.

illusorya In reply to AngieVX [2011-06-10 16:02:39 +0000 UTC]

In truth... I don't know...
Because digital art ruined a lot traditional media...
is silly, but now commissions in digital art are really expensive, than the traditional is has fallen as much money... I think is not right, because with digital art you have only a pc and a program, and on traditional you've materials and more...
But it's only my opinion, and, of course, for me, i don't take a look on prizes than the talented and amazing art of an artist...
But, i spend about €200 every month for tools... How can to valute the commission of my art? That's crazy..
I hope you understand my opinion...

I think it's cool because it allows you to experiment. Here we don't have good choice but... one visit to an art shop... only a couple of nice pencils bought and - buy-buy 15-20USD... sometimes prices scare me.

Hii! Nice to see you again!
The concept belongs to , all I did is coloring
But because of my poor wrist... the bottom part is not colored yet completely. I'll better avoid using tablet for some time not to get my wrist injured too much. I must be sitting in a wrong position or something. Don't worry, it happens with me sometimes - tight bandages and lack of loading are a good cure.

SpiderUrashima In reply to AngieVX [2011-08-30 17:44:56 +0000 UTC]

I have also forgotten works here .... but not because I still do not feel motivated ... in this case I get new ones .... the queue of unfinished drawings always grows.

AngieVX In reply to SpiderUrashima [2011-08-30 18:10:58 +0000 UTC]

So true! Same here! Sometimes I have no skills to finish a particular work - not that I say it to myself, but I guess that's what it is - then I just leave it for some time. (Though sometimes I forget... because of a total mess on my HD)

AngieVX In reply to Linelana [2011-06-02 19:10:20 +0000 UTC]

Yep, her hair is hard to color!
But it's a pleasure!
I'm happy you like it. I have no idea what to do with background... I want to keep it simple and clear but with a bit more details.
I just thought that you'd like to see it (because it might take long due to my habit to switch from one drawing to another and because of my poor wrist - I must be sitting in a wrong position or just pressed too hard - now I can only use it for fifteen minutes, and then it hurts - so I'd better avoid using it for some time. Don't worry, sometimes it happens when I'm using tablet - I had to wear a tight bandage on my wrist in a previous Summer because of tablet.)

I'm sorry for your wrist! do not force too much on it! Stay calm

AngieVX In reply to Linelana [2011-06-03 15:41:43 +0000 UTC]

I won't rush! It must be because of position - not very comfortable Sometimes I don't pay attention at position in which I draw - and it can be pretty weird. Or just wrong height of chair and table. Thank you for care!

I understand you soo much! Best of all is to use easel - it's better for our backs and our hands - and it allows our arms and hands move freely which improves quality of lines - but I don't have it. ^^
