Description I recently finished a collaboration with my friend
This drawing was supposed to be just a practice sketch.(I was afraid of messing up the original )
I scanned the visible strip he sent me,and did a drawing based on what I could see.
It ended up being more than just a sketch so,I thought I would share it with you.
If you're not familiar with Luca's art,it's definitely worth a look. Amazing stuff.
Thanks

Very groovy! Thanks! Glad you like.
I scanned the strip out of desperation.
Luca warned me about the paper he used,and
it DID turn out to be very fragile. Very little,
if any,mistakes allowed. The printer paper was
actually much easier,and I got another drawing
out of the deal.
Thanks again for the compliments,Katie.

Amazing. Simply Amazing. Your shading is superb as usual, and I like how you filled up the page without over filling it. I love the perspective of the little walkway, and the eyeball in the floor. Very nice touch. You are such a talented artist!

Meltin In reply to meregoddess [2012-04-09 22:40:32 +0000 UTC]

Thanks but,I must have messed up. The eyeball is in the wall.lol
I also did a twist on perspective. The door and the windows,are different angles.
Just for the heck of it.
Thanks Ann. I appreciate it.

intrinsic In reply to Meltin [2012-04-11 19:52:16 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome Your shading, as I can see the pencil-texture, is very good, it gives a depth in itself too, something I also wish to explore more, like "texturing" as in 3D engines and rendering on computers, but done with hand & brain Sometimes I get some visions in my mind that I can't yet draw, and I guess we both are, working on things, which is where the fun is, in progress & flow

Meltin In reply to intrinsic [2012-04-12 01:14:17 +0000 UTC]

I have the same problem,with getting things I can see in my head,on paper.
Lately,I've become much more aware of the affects of light. As in shadows.
How long should they be,or how would they look falling across an uneven,or curved surface.
Very confusing. I believe shadows make a huge difference.
Yes,progress,and flow. Well put.

The Exquisite Corpse that inspired this drawing.
I talked about it in the artist's comments.
Actually,from the one you're working on now.
