Description I freaking LOOOOVE this shading style XD 

I am experimenting. Well... I always say that so you will stop believing me xD
One of the comic books I got as the prize was Bram Stoker's "Dracula". It's sooooo dark and cool (ofc it's dark, it's black and white LOL). 
I love the noir vibe of B&W comics -I believe it's the most appropriate for An and Anta's story - so I was a bit inspired by it to draw my never-drawn OC Jack, from my original story ANAnta.
He hasn't killed anyone, don't worry... Or... maybe he has :·) 

I had fun, it didn't take forever and I am so inspired lately X/D I am drawing again QmQ 
And that's all xD Have a good week!!! ;·)
++++

Jack is an OC by Akai--Me (c)

/random peaches has appeared!/

Omgosh! Looks so awesome Akai! <3 <3 Really, I adore this and this style! You should do a few more like this??? It's using heavier black right? Cause that's a style I ADOREEEE. So I support it! Love this all though! Looking wonderful and loving the experiments here! Hope you're doing well!

I know what you mean! (There was a time years ago I thought about doing it myself but decided not to cause in the end, I'd just change it back to normal lmao) but it uses gradients and bold black? There is a Tekken artist that uses this I think. I think it's all about hitting the bold spots and mixing it in with those gradients imo. But I feel it shouldn't be that hard? Just like you said, with practice you will get there!

You're so welcome! 

T_T; I have. It's a mix of everything. Partly I don't think anything I do is really uploadable. Not like my last pieces here and partly just haven't been around. Trying to come back though in late August or September, so I'll catch up more on your art then. <3 

I do have some uploads! But they're old - going to use them anyway when I come back!

Akai--Me In reply to peacheyi [2019-07-13 23:46:34 +0000 UTC]

XD Maybe I should do the same as you, because every time I try this new style I keep coming back to the old good painting ways XD
Exactly! Hmmm...the artist I am taking inspiration from is Park Ji Yeon; 
she uses gradients and these... thick shades... I wish I painted like her */_/* Maybe one day xD

Oh noooo ;_; Again that phase! But you have really cool art, never think any 
of what you do is un-uploadable!!! :·) Go for it! When... you're not busy , ofc OTL 
XD Well.. .considering I myself start to upload, cause I've been pretty off as well XD 
but next month we have the August Daily Sketch Initiative so I am hyped for it :3

YES!!! Awesome!!! :·D

La verdad que el estilo te queda muy bien con tu lineart Kai. Un comentario si estas usando tablet, para la proxima que los highlights sean mas delgados o que tengan mas variacion de peso.

¿Te parece? Muchas gracias Q_Q 
hmmmm ¿Te refieres a los ojos + el charco? Los puse más... pesados para 
que destacasen mucho :·( Es decir, quería algo más sólido. ¿Crees que
algo más "suave" habría quedado mejor? (no sé si te entendí bien XD )

Ooooohohohoho I love this SoaB. he's lookin good, I really love this style too, especially since I used to draw primarily in black and white. I like the dark shadows around his eyes and his asshole expression, Jack is so great He should get with Ezra already ...or with Hizashi, one or the other
