Photoshop Life Lessons
Not really relevant to my coursework, but a life lesson from Photoshop:
No matter the magical tools Photoshop has, you cant "dodge" through doing work.
Though the dodge tool is incredibly helpful.

Noir Comic: Continuation
This blog is incredibly overdue, but here is the work for the noir comic I have been working on, repeatedly... over and over... redrawing and redesigning... many hours, much work. Anyway.
So, in this page you can see that I have used an awful lot of mark making in the roses in particular. This is something I used to do in all my work, and I haven't really used it much in the past two years, what with one thing or another (trying my best to better my skills drawing people) and while sending my sketchbook around for the usual group criticism, a friend noticed the mark making and thought it looked good.
This lead to me doodling a lot, and I was discussing ideas to the thought bubble [seen above] with roses, since this is a theme in the story, rather than the empty space, which developed to mark making the roses, and it just developed from there. Since adding all the detailing I've had much more positive feedback, which encouraged me to add as much mark making as I can to this series of work without distracting from the noir style. I'll post the finished pieces when I'm done making them tidier. (=

Noir Comic Update
Right now I'm in the process of working on my noir comic, using lots of interesting inks and pens and a providing a great excuse for me to sift through amazon's collections of fine line pens for my own use. I ended up choosing the pens an artist I admire uses, Kerby Rosanes, who specified his pens on his facebook page, which I follow, which you can find here: https://www.facebook.com/sketchystoriesblog (=
Anyway, here's where I'm upto, its a little backed up since I'm still not used to this blogging thing:
After all these pages are complete, I will rework them and complete them in A2 size then scale them down to A3 using photoshop, to add as much detail as I can, and a more crisp appearance due to the size- down.
Anyway, here's where I'm upto, its a little backed up since I'm still not used to this blogging thing:

| A practice page for the comic, after inking |
 |
| My work station |
 |
| A practice close- up of the female character |
 |
| My materials I am using for this work |
After all these pages are complete, I will rework them and complete them in A2 size then scale them down to A3 using photoshop, to add as much detail as I can, and a more crisp appearance due to the size- down.
