cant wait to see more of you art |
Ya I really liked the scratch board, never heard of it except in HS. My art teacher made me draw that and graded me poorly :P I am actually thinking of picking some up and trying to do a Portrait on it. You can even color it now!
What scratch board is, is basicly a thick white sheet of paper with thick clay like black on it. You use a metal pen that has just a pointed tip ( I think there are different shapes) and you have to scratch off the black to make the picture. Its very cool, Like the paper artists version of stone lol. All that shadow is already on the page, you just gotta add the definition ya know?
Here is my very first portrait, 1999. It is of my nephew Austin. He was playing a video game and I was like "hey i know what ill put in my new book, ill try and draw him!" That is what really got me into drawing portraits when I saw how well I did.
Then I used different pencils (the ones that are numbered for thickness) But I like mechanical .5 better.

Friend4u that youtube video was awesome... I should try to make something like that, just take a whole bunch of sequential pictures of something, draw out really quick sketches and then use windows movie maker to piece them together! ( i use to make stick figure cartoons like that lol)
