Hello everybody! ??
Some important news! Since Im not so happy with my drawings, my art style, skills and workflow at the moment, there will be some changes in May.
To get right to the point and more concretely this will effect three points:
- Style: My biggest issue I often fell like Im overdoing stuff. Making the line art to clean and stiff, using to soft and dark shading and working on some parts more than I probably should its hard to put in words and its not like I hate my style! I like a lot of my drawings and Im super glad for the positive feedback, so this wont be an complete turn-around (especially because I find it hard to break my drawing habits). But I would love to give my line art a more rough peppy look and my shading a more stylized anime look.
- Different versions: These days I do 3-4 versions for each drawings most of the time. And I would love to do more real hentai stuff! But I also like to have a more cute or cool version which is a bit ecchi, but still pretty safe for work! Coming up with a pose, that fits both themes is hard and I end up messing up both intentions. Also working on 3-4 versions of one single drawings is sometimes a mess (especially if you spot an error after finishing all >_>) and I thought, maybe I should spend the time with more different drawings instead. So in May Ill try to do 2 drawings a week with 2 versions each.
- Size: At the moment my drawings are 5100px x 7100px and there is actually no reason at all to make them that large. But there are a few drawbacks, like my Clip Studio Paint files get really big, the program gets pretty slow when I use a lot of layers and a lot of brushes arent made for that size. And the bigger the canvas the harder it is to keep lineart and everything clean. Whenever I draw something on a smaller scale, it feels more fluid and smooth! So in May my drawings will have the size 3600px x 5100px (which is still damn big!)
Feel free to ask if anything is unclear or tell me your thoughts about this!
I will work hard on my style and also get you better drawings! Im not sure, if this will work just like I imagine, but Im super motivated and I hope you all will bear and stay with me!??
In short for my german followers / kurz und knackig nochmal auf deutsch:
Aktuell bin ich unzufrieden mit meinem Stil, meinen Fähigkeiten und meinem Arbeitsfluss beim Zeichnen, deshalb werd ich im Mai ein wenig was anderes ausprobieren. Das betrifft:
- meinen Stil (Lineart ist zu steif, Schattierungen sind teils zu übertrieben, weich, dunkel...)
- die verschiedenen Versionen (statt 1 Zeichnung mit 4 Versionen, versuche ich mich an 2 Zeichnungen mit je 2 Versionen)
- die Größe der Bilder, da mich die großen Dateien in mehrererlei Hinsicht ausbremen. (nun 3600 x 5100 pixel statt 5100 x 7100 pixel).
Ich bin unsicher, ob alles so klappt wie ich mir das vorstelle, aber sehr motiviert und hoffe sehr ihr habt Verständnis bzw. seid gespannt!??
