As you read in the chatterbox, I have been complaining about my avvy. I was messing around last night and the this afternoon to see what I could come up with.
1. ![]() This is the one I did last night, yeah, it's alright, I suppose, but it just doesn't appeal to me all that much. 2. ![]() I like this one a lot, but it's sloppy and the shading could do better. I also really like the colors on it. (need to add sparks.) If someone could post an edit, that I could get an idea of, that'd be great. Thanks in advance. |

You know what? You should totally have a red can of soda with a lit fuse stuck in the top.
Btw the design of #2 is pretty cool. The fuse looks like a stalk and leaf at the mo tho. Edited by Larwick - 29 November 2007 at 4:10pm |

Something more like this maybe?

The flame is a secondary lightsource, remember that. Also, contrast is key. Edited by BlackDragon - 29 November 2007 at 5:16pm |

Wow, thanks BlackDragon, that's a great edit, but I think I've got it down.
I've used the same palette approach as I did on my Fantasy Self Portrait. ![]() Thanks all, think I'm done here. btw, good suggestion, Lar. |

I really think you should work on this more. You've got serious shading and, odd though it may sound, anatomy problems that a zany palette cannot fix.

![]() Tada! 8 colors with transparency! So like it? And do you mind if I submit it into my gallery only with your credit for linework? Edited by Doomcreator0 - 30 November 2007 at 3:53pm |

I made this before you decided this piece was finished and wasn't going to post it, but what the hey. Maybe it'll be useful for your next sodatar.
![]() If you decide to pick this up again I'll explain what I did in detail. |

Wow, hatch, I really like the exaggerated lip, and the strong expression in his eyes. I'll definitely edit mine.
Edit. Loved the lip you use and applied it to my own. ![]() Edited by soda - 01 December 2007 at 8:20am |

Good nic, no engles speek dutch.
Dit is zeer goed. Als u tot het purpere en groene mengsel een beetje kon enkel maken meer die zeer aardig zouden zijn. Alle moet ik zeggen. Nemend Engelse klassen, zo hopelijk zal ik beter worden.

Sorry bad Engels, no good.

DutchDemon says it is good but he would like to see some blending between the green and purple. He is taking English classes to get better at the language.
Anyway, I don't think the pallette or wacky shading is working for me.
Its improving though, keep it up!

Originally posted by soda Edit. Loved the lip you use and applied it to my own. I think one of the reasons Hatch's plump bottom lip works so well is because of the balance made with the plumped up brow also. Yours looks nice but also seems a bit OTT, especially the shadow underneath (mainly cus of your horrid pallette ![]() Keep it up. :) |
