great conceptual piece...

reminds me of Tim Burtons conceptual stuff...

BP pen can be great for quick conceptual illustrations...

you should try adding watercolor and maybe quache or acrylics over one of your BP illo's ...

and don't forget..you can always "work-up" or "re-work" your illo...if you use a heavy bond paper..used for watercolor... 10-15 ply (ask about different textures ay your local art-supply)...

cheers!

O.O

time for questions:

What's heavy bond paper? (I've only used computer printing paper)

I've heard of Acrylic but I don't exactly know what it is. I'm guessing some sort of paint

what's quache?

Endo74 In reply to Aixrotciv [2006-08-11 18:46:50 +0000 UTC]

..it's best if you go directly to your art supplier with technical questions about supplies...

but i'll give you a quick run-down...(about the supplies i meant to describe)

1-heavy pressed watercolor paper...(you can buy it by weight...10-15 or 20-lbs..etc)
it's very thick and you can do a lot of experimental color work on top of your drawing...
(which it looks like you would enjoy doing)

2-acrylic
is a paint which is water based...it dries quickly but it's a good start for learning to mix opaque color....(you can mix with water and paint in a diluted layer like watercolor or )...it dries with a plastic like coated surface if used undiluted...

3-quache
(don't quote me on the spelling!...sounds like squash...! if you ask for it ..they'll have it..)
it's water based ..it can be used thin like a watercolor... or thich like an acrylic...it does dry w/ a plastic like coat like an acrylic..

you can find information about methods in any painting book...but the best thing to do is gradually buy and try EVERYTHING you see in an art store...

hope that helped...

cheers!

I did some sketches on computer printer paper before. Although it doesn't look as nice, the mistakes are not that obvious and can be removed more easily too
