Mekelba's Evil Scheming Dump

Yo! I've always loved art, much longer so than I started singing hehe. But alas, drawing takes up so much time. I'm trying to draw more arts for my own music on youtube 8D;; Starting now Q__Q

I have a greater passion for lineart than I do for coloring, however I'm used to coloring, mostly because color really brings out a picture.

So I'm going to take a giant DUMP on this thread of awesomeness. Starting... NOW

Love your coloring style. :D It's very retro 70's feel in this picture.

XD Thanks. Secretly, I didn't want to do shading LOL!! So I as of late I've been sticking to easy cell shading and addition/overlaying gradient custom gradient tones.

Guess which song PV this pose is from! :>!

Ooooh! I like your style :D
Interesting bold lines!!

XDD Totally cheated there Yano! PFFT!

Thank you Froggie :D!!

I <3 Linearts =u= So it means a lot that you like them!

Hehe! I'm not very good with linearts ;n;
I prefer coloring instead! >u<

I </3 Coloring LOL!! Can I see what you've colored? +_+?

Sure!! My dA is posted in my signature /lazy lazy

This is some pretty good stuff :>!!!

I really like your sketch01, the blending of the soft colors with the drawing style meshed in with bits and pieces of realism really draws and captures my attention :D

Thank you!! That makes me really happy ;u; I like getting compliments/critiques on my artwork. It makes me want to work hard~

I'm still uncertain about my drawing style though. A part of me wants to stick with an animeish style, and then my college-self says no and I must draw more realistically QQ

Do you have a deviantart? I'd like to see more of your work as well! =D

Ah, excuse me. I found it in the first post.

/dork

Ah! Thank you for the watch!! Sorry for posting so much one after another @@; /getting used to forum posting.

I really liked your Highlights commission! I love how the skin tone is well blended and matched with the color of her hair. The flowers are also a very nice touch to her femininity!

Anyway, I am going to bed now. Good night!

I think that you should continue with realism styles and blend/incorporate unique elements of anime styles. The look has a much more artistic professional look to it, and at the same time allows you to keep a higher degree of art; so when you want to have fun and doodle whatever, anime should come easier. + The prospect of drawing realistic is a much more rare feat.

I suck at realism.

And coloring.

And singing.

And life.

Rock on!

Good night Frogcadet :D!
