process: Blue Fairy

Hi, I was organizing my folders and saw these work in progress shots that I never posted, thought I'd put them up in case anyone might wonder. It was done using Easy Paint Tool SAI, and I do think I downloaded some brushes although I don't have them anymore. But there's nothing special about them.
You can see the finished painting here.

Paintings in progress


Posting two works in progress, the purple haired girl is a character that belongs to my friend Cherubit, it's my first art of 2016 and I'm glad I was able to not stress too much over the mistakes and just finish it. Done in SAI. Here's the finished version: http://spielodia.deviantart.com/art/Mia-592153353
Second is my Maddie, from last year, in Photoshop.

Paintberri test

Wow, it's been forever.
Tegaki, my precious drawing board site (where you draw online), has closed. I hadn't used it in years, because of the social aspect (man I'm embarrassed by some of my stuff lol) and mostly cause it lacked pen pressure sensitivity, so drawing was a struggle for me there. Still feel sad it closed though.
I found this similar site, www.paintberri.com and I really like it so far. It's still in beta, but already feels much easier to draw on and has a lot more features than tegaki, and other oekaki boards I've used. Still makes things look kinda pixelated because of the hard edge of the brush... you can make strokes softer but when you change brush size/opacity/flow/hardness it looks pixelated again, so you have to mess with the options again. Also it doesn't work on Chrome yet so I used Firefox. But anyway here's what I did in it (click for full-size to see the pixelation), and the initial sketch showing drawing interface:



There are 2 layers. You can flip and mirror canvas!!



At one point Firefox stopped responding. I don't know if it's because of the website. I closed and reopened it and I got this:
I chose Load Backup and didn't lose any progress from the crash. Wtf, cool!

PT: Não lembrava que tinha feito isso lol
Um rascunho no photoshop

nice seeing you again, digital art...

PT: Olá bloguinho, enquanto não coloco aqui os rabiscos em papel que estou te devendo, aqui vai um que fiz agora no photoshop, testando pincéis. To cansada da bagunça de pincéis que tenho. E usando Photoshop fico sentindo uma falta do SAI. Por que mesmo eu to usando photoshop? Porque todo mundo usa?
Ah, sim, pelas texturas... (não que esse seja um bom exemplo)

ENG: Hello little blog, while I don't post the rest of the paper sketches I owe you, here's some doodle in photoshop, to test brushes. The mess that is my brushes is frustrating. And using Photoshop makes me miss SAI. Why am I using photoshop? Cause everyone does?
Oh, right, for the textures... (not that this is a good example)

Tem po...



PT-BR: Omg faz tanto tanto tempo, meu pequeno blog obscuro, que da última vez eu disse que ia atualizar, mas ficou na promessa da promessa ou algo assim...
Eu tenho desenhado no pc cada vez menos AINDA do que do último post, e no papel é tudo meio bagunça, pq tem tanto papel que não sei onde por, e tanto caderno, e material diferente e, e, e e e
Continuo colocando rabiscos no Instagram com minha câmera podre de aifoni 3, porque é prático, e porque as pessoas os vêem (não muitas pessoas, mas mais pessoas que aqui).
Mas raramente faço um desenho que considero "completo" e não apenas mais um rabisco experimental. Ainda tenho muita dificuldade com arte tradicional, e como em arte no geral sinto uma dificuldade grande em cores/saturação/contraste (junto com anatomia, perspectiva, composição e etc, o de sempre, mas pra mim cores/saturação/contraste é algo especial), com papel tem que planejar bem pois não da pra simplesmente passar outra cor por cima e ficar tudo bem. E eu não sei o que estou fazendo.

Enfim, postando alguma coisa que escaneei em dezembro, preciso escanear bem mais coisas.
Esse em lápis grafite preto, primeiro fiz com lapis col-erase azul que deixa os desenhso bonitos xD mas que é bem macio por isso não para apontado. Estava vendo Grimm 2a temporada na Warner, aí ela acabou saindo de orelhas de bicho lol, pensei nos Wesen, algo meio seres da floresta hahah! E chamei-a de MaryAnn. A de cabelo rosa e a de cabelo cinza foram aleatório (rabiscos de caneta). A última é a Kuan Yin, para a minha tia (um "completo"!).
Para cores a maior parte é marcadores copic sketch (que compro aos pouquinhos na loja online brasuca, mas que sempre parece estar faltando cores! E que aliás algumas já acabaram a tinta), multiliner canetas staedler e stabilo (pêssego e cinza),  faber castell pitt, unipin etc etc tinta branca e lapis de cor na Kuan Yin, e soprar na ponta das copics feito louca pra simular um airbrush!!! haeiuaeh





EN: Sorry little obscure blog, about the broken promises about the broken promises on top of the broken promises.... I have been drawing even less on the pc, and it's such a mess to try and organize my papers and sketchbooks and scan them. It's already really difficult to decide what to draw and how orz.
I've been posting a lot of it on Instagram still with my shitty iphone camera, cause it's practical and people look at them, not a lot but you know, more people than here.
But I rarely do something I can consider a "complete" drawing, as most stay in the experimental doodle/sketch level of quality. I'm not good with coloring and contrast, and I really want to be, like, use the right saturation and rich shadows and stuff, and I should do studies, and with traditional art on paper, you have to know it well, to plan it well, cause if it goes wrong it's so so so hard to fix. I can't just wing it like in digital and paint over it. And I don't know what I'm doing.

So the first girl I made while watching Grimm 2nd season (I really like it), so she has those part-animal ears, if you notice, and named her MaryAnn because.
The pink-ish-haired one is random, so is the white haired one.
Last 2 is Kuan Yin for my aunt (a "complete" drawing!).
For color I've used mostly copic sketch markers, multiliner, and staedler pens, stabilo pens, faber castell pitt pens, unipin, lots of colore pencils for Kuan Yin, blowing on copics to simulate airbrush, and white inks.

Gomez and elves



PT-BR: Ahh já to com post atrasado! Mas hoje vai. Rascunhos com copic porque AINDA estou testando-as.. copiei o papel de parede do meu celular, que é o Gomez do jogo Fez (amo!) da Polytron.
No meio a Dorothy, minha elfa negra/dunmer em The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. Usei caneta gel branca da Signo mas ela acaba ficando transparente, vou ter que arrumar algo melhor.
Esse desenho serviu pra eu lembrar como eu sou HORRIVEL pra arte finalizar, acabei usando a caneta nanquim como um lápis de rascunho aheuah. Preciso de canetas mais grossas e pincéis, disfarça mais os erros...
E um elfo aleatório que fiz nas festas de fim de ano... logo abaixo a cópia q meu irmão fez bêbado e em 2 minutos, querendo comparar com um desenho que fiz em 1 hora e provar que não sabe desenhar ¬¬


EN: Late update is late! Copic sketches for testing copics: Gomez from the game Fez (♥) by Polyron. Then Dorothy my dunmer/dark elf from The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, and yes I cannot ink/lineart to save my life. Also need something better for whites than a white gel pen as the white looks transparent once it dries >.< And need thicker inking pens and brushes.
And a random elf in pencil I drew during holidays (december/january). Below it is a 5 minute drunk doodle my brother did trying to copy it ¬¬

Not dead yet! - sketches!


PT-BR:
I LIVE! Alguém ainda visita isso aqui? xD
Faz 1 ano mais ou menos que tive um bloqueio e quase não desenhava mais... E nunca tinha ânimo de escanear/postar. Desculpem! T_T Ainda estou enferrujada, e to achando muuuuito melhor rascunhar no papel que no pc. Mas hoje finalmente troquei de monitor, to com um Dell U2312HM, (descalibrado, mas que mesmo assim) dá de lavada no meu AOC 2217v que tinha uma mancha amarela enorme... Pra pesquisar qual monitor comprar, fucei tanto que to sabendo mais que os vendedores das lojas daqui hauehuah.
E mês passado consegui uns freelas finalmente, mas não sei se vou poder mostrar os desenhos aqui, ou quando.

Aí vai uns rabiscos que fiz semana passada na casa da minha avó. Quase sempre que vou lá pego o que tiver e rabisco. Normalmente é caneta bic e bloquinhos xD
Sem referência, bic azul e lápis.

EN:
I LIVE! Does anyone still visit? xD
It's been a year since an art block hit me and I barely drew during this time... And didn't really feel like scanning anything. I'm sorry! T_T I'm still rusty, and now I like sketching on paper instead of pc sooooo much better. However today I finally got a new monitor, a Dell U2312HM, (not calibrated, but still) so much better than the stained AOC 2217v I used to have... During the past couple of weeks I've learned so much about monitors, in order to pick one. I was a complete n00b before.
Last month I got some freelance jobs, but I'm not sure if and when I'll be able to show them.

Posting some sketches I did at my grandma's place. When I'm there I tend to grap anything to draw on, usually a pen and post-it paper xD
No reference, blue bic ball-point pen and pencils.

+ old Tegaki colors

Coisas antigas do Tegaki (é um site pra se desenhar ok XD): Dyani de um grupo de rp e umas cores que nunca terminei nesse desenho aqui.  (Neverwinter Nights: HotU)
Só pra não deixar o blog morrer né!

Old Tegaki stuff, Dyani from a roleplay group and progress on coloring of this pic (Neverwinter Nights: HotU characters)
Just to keep the blog alive!

Hiatusurghhhh


Hello to you.
I'm reversing my last decision about just writing in English here. I might leave English mostly for Tumblr. (OH YES indecisive). Because having TWO English only blogs doesn't really make much sense?
Anyway, slight hiatus is obvious. This huge art block is killing me, killing meeee.
This was probably the only thing I drew (last night) that I like.She's from this post.

Olá para você (VOSE!)
Fique tranquilo que não vou escrever dois blogs em inglês (não que alguém não estivesse tranquilo com isso). Pensei melhor e não faz muito sentido. Talvez deixarei o inglês pro Tumblr. Acho que tem mais brasucas aqui que lá, ou não?
Enfim, isto tá meio em pausa, porque eu nunca tive um art block tão horrível (tão grande e longo, sim, mas nunca sofri tanto com isso ahuehae). Jjá conversei com várias pessoas (colegas de profissão?), e eu até desenho uma coisa ou outra às vezes, mas detesto.
Isso aqui é a primeira coisa que gosto. Tá um lixo, mas foi rascunhão rápido XD

Contemplation

Just a pretty old Tegaki pic of my Neverwinter Nights character Tinde Signe, a "playful" elf lady ranger who carried a one handed sword bigger than her in Hordes of The Underdark (and who happens to look very androgynous here)

Party Camp

PS sketch of Iselae, my main Dalish Elf from DAO (old art here) done after freelance work, for no reason (to get out of art block). It helped a bit I guess.
I'm becoming friends with Photoshop for the first time really, after editing my tablet settings with the help of this thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=77043

This is silly but I think I'm gonna tag my PCs (playable characters) as fanart AND original, I don't think they fit with just fanart...

(cross-posted from my tumblr)

Também não vou mais escrever em português mas duvido que alguem ligue.

A decent blogging site?! + ME meme sketches

So my tumblr (http://elciled.tumblr.com/) is giving me problems and driving me crazy. It's buggy/complicated, you can read my last post about it there. And now blogger changes on me too. F*CK.
*tears hair out*
I'm so frustrated right now and not only because of this crap... but also for my art block which you can read about on tumblr.

weird little girl

Faço nem idéia ^^'
Traí o movimento anti-hipster e fiz um tumblr. Quero testá-lo e só depois vou ver se gosto, se fico só lá e deixo o blogger, ou se continuo os dois, ou se uso um pra cada coisa (um pra fanart apenas? sei não... ) ou uso o tumblr só pra seguir os artistas que gosto... não sei, mas esse aqui é tão... morto e carente de comentários, que muito pior não fica XD Capaz de só escrever em inglês no Tumblr tbm. Aqui o link: http://elciled.tumblr.com/ Elciled é um portmanteau dos nomes de minhas avós, Elza e Otaciled (é esquisito mesmo... ela não usa esse nome, mas esse é o nome de batismo). Achei que ficou tipo nome de algum pistolerooooo de algum filme ridículo HAUHEUAHA. Eu usei na minha conta da Live BR (Xbox) há tempos e adorei... queria poder trocar o nome da minha Live USA com ela :P
Instalei o DISQUS aqui tbm no lugar dos comentários pra facilitar.

I have no idea ^^'
I made a tumblr. I want to test it to see if I'll post both here and there, same or different content (for now it's the same), or move there. Or stay only here and use tumblr to follow people. But this place is very dead so I don't think it makes a difference heheh. If any reader out there has a preference, concern or advice just let me know. I've also installed DISQUS here on my blogger so it should be easier to comment. You don't need to log in (or you can log in with various different accounts), and it's easy to subscribe to conversations. Oh, my tumblr: http://elciled.tumblr.com/

Once vampires

Rascunho antigo. Maddie (minha perso baseada na Emilie Autumn) e Vore, eles eram personagens vampiros meus mas eu mudei a Maddie pra não arriscar um processo XD E o Vore tá no limbo dos meus personagens sem uso... a nova Maddie tá lá tbm mas eu gosto pacas dela. Talvez eu dê twintails (o penteado) de volta à ela, é bem a personalidade dela.

Old sketches. Maddie (oc based on Emilie Autumn) and Vore, old vampire characters of mine... but I changed Maddie's look cause I don't wanna risk a lawsuit XD Vore is in unused character limbo... Maddie's new look is there too but I quite like her. Will probably give her twintails back, it suits her.

Doodles are allowed

Rabiscos aleatórios enquanto eu esperava o professor na aula (de desenho)... a mesa que uso dá uma textura no lápis.

Random sketches while I waited for my teacher in (art) class... the table I used gives the pencil lines a lot of texture.

Random PS sketches for practice... can you tell perspective and I don't get along?
Illuada, my super sexy Aasimar from Icewind Dale II, and Aleja Shepard wearing scribbles... I wanna try drawing her in ME1 armor, I liked it better.

Discovery of the Holy Brush: the Photoshop Miracle

Well, to me it is a miracle. I hate Photoshop. No, no, it hates me. I try and try to paint in it but it's painfully horrible. The result is always horrific too (well I worked around that on my Oh Tee Pee pic but it's an exception). However I never gave up. I was sure I was missing something, probably very obvious, that would allow me to blend colors without making things look like they were painted with a crayon in the hands of a 3 year old. Like this (eeeewwwww ugh ugh):
(And here's the version of this pic painted on SAI)

So I wasn't feeling like doing anything tonight, much less art, but I ended up perusing some beautiful galleries on DA and found a tutorial. Tutorials are super interesting (as long as you can understand them... also always look for the ones by really good artists... there are too many newbie and bad artists doing tutorials, avoid those). So on a whim I doodled to try the brushes from it, and this came out:
Do you see how much less it sucks? It still sucks (and nevermind the animu girls... I'm on an animu high this month) but OH GOD SO MUCH LESS. I can actually draw and paint with it. It has a lineart so it's not a proper testing for painting, but still so much better than my past experiences with Photoshop. I'm so happy I could cry lol. Here's the link to my saviour: a tutorial by Sandara at DA.

Thank you Sandara, you changed my life XD

Pessoal BR, acho que não vai dar pra escrever tudo isso em português não, mas o básico é que o Photoshop sempre me odiou e acho horrível pintar nele, mas nunca desisti. Tinha algo muito óbvio que tinha certeza que estava faltando eu ver. Aí o tutorial do link acima me mostrou o caminho X)

Sketchdump


I missed posting here even if I'm alone ><
I'm kinda lost at what I wanna focus on right now, art-wise, so I feel a bit stumped and unispired. I just really need to get back into drawing a lot.
These are some sketches from my last sketchbook, it's been almost a year since I've touched it I think, because I couldn't get my scanner to work and that discouraged me. I mostly sketch on the pc now, but I sketch less also.

Yngwiie, the character on the bottom is also here.
Eu amo esses dois aí embaixo XD
