# About me

I draw, obviously. I read a lot. I would play video games, but my 360 went to the Great Beyond (trash can). Guess it was scared to literal death when it found out Skyrim was coming, after Oblivion's long years of overworked abuse. I watch Bleach and Fairy Tail and not much else, not counting all the Nick Jr I'm forced to put up with. :/ I love anything to do with Star Wars , vampires (including Twilight, you haters!), mythology, comic book characters (dont read comics, though), Anime/Manga and various other stuff... Dragons are awesome!!!

I am the co-founder of Anime-Manga-Blade , a group for anyone who loves Anime and Manga! Check it out!

I am also the founder of a new group, Bleach-Rebellion , which is basically a big rebel army of Bleach fans looking for a more "free society" art group than the "oppressive, judgmental "evil empire" types out there. ^^

To Do List:
Jedi Master Ulquiorra
Sith Ichigo for nerd reasons
add light/dark side backgrounds to above 2 (respectively)
some kind of Nelliel-Star Wars crossover (not in a Gold Bikini, its been done too many times )
more Hollow Llama stuff!! cuz, you know, he's AWESOME!
Bleach/Marvel crossover/cosplay

Well i used the tips you told me and made [link] I think it came out well for my first time but the scanner made it a bit light imo

Caedus6685 In reply to AceOfKeys72 [2012-09-01 22:29:51 +0000 UTC]

Good job on the lion. Only thing I can suggest is finding you light source and add some darker shades to the areas away from the light to give some dimension. You can also add some dark streaks to the fur in places and such. Practice will help. But good job! Glad I could help

AceOfKeys72 In reply to Caedus6685 [2012-09-02 06:17:36 +0000 UTC]

thanks a lot i appreciate it. lighting i've always found difficult to do. i can easily visualize it but its not the same as having an actual reference to look and study and a lot of the ways i learn lighting i've found it difficult to incorporate. do you have any suggestions on how to deal with that? also yeah some dark streaks would look pretty good. i definitely plan to practice more on shading and blending

Caedus6685 In reply to AceOfKeys72 [2012-09-02 11:21:06 +0000 UTC]

I've got to work this morning, but if I get a chance this afternoon, ill see if I can come up with a simple sketch to explain lighting. No promises on if it will be useful. A lot of factors affect lighting, so it might not help much. Best I can do is try.

AceOfKeys72 In reply to Caedus6685 [2012-09-05 06:23:02 +0000 UTC]

it will be helpful. i tend to be resourceful and i often compare different sources to make sense of things. not only that but it creates connections i haven't considered, so i'd appreciate the lighting tip

and here I thought everyone and their mothers just did digital. well i'm glad to see I have found a really good traditional artist and hopefully i'll learn some times from checking your work

AceOfKeys72 In reply to Caedus6685 [2012-08-30 14:18:04 +0000 UTC]

haha it really is. i enjoy digital as much as the next guy but considering how many people here tend to play at digital just to be seen, not all of them but you can tell who, and how it looks and feels to use traditional i just have a preference to it. i do have to ask how did you get your shading to that quality? I can say i have a good ability on getting the shapes down but depth is still a skill i lack a thorough understanding

Caedus6685 In reply to AceOfKeys72 [2012-08-30 15:53:14 +0000 UTC]

I don't really know how I do it. I just taught myself, I try to get in all the details I see in a drawing, add in what I need to, etc... I can teach you how to get shades, but how to apply them, I can't explain. It's kinda just experience. I draw and shade how I see things. Sorry. I'm not a great teacher, never had one o_O lol

AceOfKeys72 In reply to Caedus6685 [2012-08-30 23:34:29 +0000 UTC]

Wow you have no idea how much of a relief this makes it. for some strange reason a part of me thinks i have to learn from school how to draw but along with drawing traditionally i want to be an artist that started from scratch. high school art doesn't really count imo. i'm just incredibly encouraged that if you can draw this good on your own then i have a pretty good chance. though i am interested in your way of shading

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Caedus6685 In reply to AceOfKeys72 [2012-08-31 00:03:27 +0000 UTC]

I'll have to see if I still have my "shading lessons" in my notes. If I do, i'll send them to you. It's basically just a step-by-step instruction on how to get various shades from a pencil and layer them. Like I said, though, you have to apply them your own way.

AceOfKeys72 In reply to Caedus6685 [2012-08-31 01:07:10 +0000 UTC]

that'll be really appreciated dude. and unless you regularly clean out your notes it still should be there and even then a run down of the basics is still pretty good since i'll be using it as a starting point
