Re: Arty Antics and Similar Stuff

Never too late to pick up a pen and start learning mate. These prompts are all part of a community challenge called Inktober. I forget who created it but it runs every October for the month with a different prompt every day. There are tons of alternatives out there that run alongside it in all the d...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)

Just caught John Wick 4 myself. Really not sure how they're going to top that one if they do get the green light for a 5th. They seem to up their game every time when it comes to the choreography and just general scope of the action, pretty bonkers now to think that the first one is actually quite r...

Re: Arty Antics and Similar Stuff

Nice one, I like the value choices in that one. I think there's only about four prompts since the last one I did to the end of the month that have really inspired much in me. Today's was a cheeky excuse to practice hands, though the rendering was a bit of an afterthought. https://i.imgur.com/OjbtoCp...

Re: D&D Campaign 2: D&D Harder

Will do.

I should be okay for tomorrow, work is very busy at the moment and I'm on call so keep being stood up for deployments, so possible I might be called away last second.

Re: Arty Antics and Similar Stuff

Cheers Chris. Probably the longest I've spent on one of these so far I think, was quite a time consuming one doing all the layers.

Missed party conference season by a couple of weeks, but you get the picture.

Re: General TV News

Rick seems widely inconsistent to me. Some lines are near enough the same but others sound like a bad impression of him.

Re: Arty Antics and Similar Stuff

Yeah another day with a not particularly inspiring prompt. Took it as a chance to practice a bit of rendering. Got bored with it towards the end though so the details in some areas are much better than others. Wasn't really sure where I was going with the engraved parts and it started to become a bi...

Re: Arty Antics and Similar Stuff

Cheers guys. I've found a couple of new brushes from a pack I got a while ago that I really like which make it easier to do more natural feeling brush pen shading like that. It's just a long process playing with the values and doing things on lots of different layers so each bit is easy to tweak in ...

This is the one I did at the weekend by mistake because I don't know how dates work.
