da muss ich aber wiedersprechen
so ähnlich geht es mit mit dem zeichnen..spätestens mit der rente hat man dann ein paar jahre um sich ausschließlich damit beschäftigen zu können

lol you're kidding right? I thought you were a professional comicbook artist when I looked through your gallery. I can't even imagine what you can do once you go Pro lol. I've always wanted to draw comic style but well-defined lines and inking doesn't seem to be my forte

And you're welcome

smekitup In reply to ArtOfRivana [2011-01-28 16:13:00 +0000 UTC]

I`m not a pro artist... just do some kind of personal work and create an own comic, the main goal is to become better at this point so that my comic won`t be a mess in the end

Otherwise I`m working for Peter Palmiotti and his very own comic character RETRO as a colorist. Please check his gallery and try to find out more. Hope to have the first issue out the next couple of months.

but that`s it! no professional work, no big income, just fun

Yeah I'd like to have my own comic someday but I still got a ton to learn. So I understand where you're coming from. All this on top of having a full time job (unrelated to art). It's all about the love of drawing for me

What's Peter's DA account? I'd be interested to check him out.

Also are you self-taught or did you undergo some kind of training?

btw you got some interesting work in your gallery and your improvement the last two years is pretty good. seems you`ll become a pro way sooner than I will

Thank you! Well, I think I have a long way to go lol. Though I aim to make a comic my drawings are more like pin ups and concept art lol.

smekitup In reply to ArtOfRivana [2011-01-30 00:17:31 +0000 UTC]

yeah, but your drawings are pretty nice, the basic technic is very good...
we all have to learn and I see some good new works coming along by you if you go on this way

oh, and I doon`t have a special favorite book or smth, I just like to read and found them very useful in some ways and entertaining as well... I guess the only way to become better is practise

I did som graffiti years ago, I guess some basics in color a piece comes from that time.
otherwise: learning by doing, but I just bought myself a "how to draw" book

Wow, he's pretty good too :watch:

lol I got a few how to draw books myself. I haven't read them all but what I usually do is skim through the pages where I find myself struggle with *lazy reader*. I like Tom Nguyen's how to draw book and the Anatomy book by Jack Hamm
