Ichabod Crane - Work In progress - video

I posted this on FB fanpage already (actually it's automatic, it has posted itself :D), but let me say something more about it this time. Remember the cute manga drawing with Witch Hunter Robin I was working on? Yeah, this one. I lost it all. I was recording the process of coloring Amon and my laptop thought Amon was so hot that he couldn't and shut down. A second after I hit save. So now I have one pink layer with some pixels T^T I was so angy I was really going to cry so I had to draw and record something else. This time with Camtasia even if I lost my recording in it before. But the computer didn't get too hot after 4 hours of recording back then. F*cking Bandicam, I hate you. You ruined my drawing, the birthday gift for my friend! Well anyway. I needed to draw someting, uh, pretty. And I had the Ichabod picture for the ref saved so, yeah. Hope you enjoy the video as I do drawing him and hopefully I'll soon upload the second part and I won't loose the video nor the drawing itself.

(This is also the answer for the question how the f*ck do I draw the portraits :D)

Back to back - video test

The video is probably part 1, I'll try to record Amon's coloring. And this one was only a software test, but I don't think I like the outcome. The quality is a fail >.<

The video is short, but this is basically the way I colored her whole dress.

How to make a simple texture in 1 minute

So I basically was looking for some easy and fast way to create a texture in Photoshop and found one, so I though I could share, maybe it's gonna be usefull for some of you :)

Back to the basics

For quite a long time recently I was down because I felt I can't draw at all. I shade, sometimes color, but I'm not able to make a whole drawing look properly. And than I got this brilliant and so original idea - if you can't do it - learn it. So I'm back to the basics. Reading tutorials, looking at the photos, references, amazing arts and thinking how it's made and trying to remember as much as I can. And then create and repeat repeat repeat. This is the video of how I was trying to learn drawing the realistic eye. Still have problems with eyelashes orz
