Description I promise I will upload a better version later!
The contrast is terrible, the paper makes the piece look like a mess, and young anakin is super light compared to himself later. Literally....not just he gets "darker" but he also gets DARKER. haha funny.

Anyways.

took about 1.5-2 hours to "complete" 1.5-2 hours I should have been doing summer assignments.

Materials:
9x12 watercolor paper
Random pencils: HB, 2B, 6B
Mechanical Pencil: HB
Eraser
kneaded Eraser


Reference Images!
Young Anakin
Older Anakin
DARTH!!

EDIT: Added a background and made young Anakin a bit more contrasty. Hope you like.

thanks. I tried very hard to make it balanced because there were 3 people instead of my normal one person.

oh you're not being braggy, i love your art too. i love my own art. everyone should love their own work, it's when they belittle others when it's bragging. there's no point to drawing/doing anything when you're not pleased with it.

Hey, I think it looks fine. And since I forget what he actually is supposed to look like, it doesn't matter if it doesn't look just like him XD

wow, this is amazing, how do you manage to get a shine on the helmet like that?

MP-R In reply to sam2142 [2010-09-07 18:16:55 +0000 UTC]

a lot of avoiding, and a lot of erasing. and a little-wee-little bit of blending.

coz i can never get a shine affect ehn im trying to draw a metal affect

MP-R In reply to sam2142 [2010-09-07 21:20:02 +0000 UTC]

Yeah This is the first time I've tried it. It was easy for me because I had a reference image that told me exactly where to shine, shade, blend etc.

sam2142 In reply to MP-R [2010-09-08 18:11:28 +0000 UTC]

aaah, ok that makes sense coz metal is really hard to do

MP-R In reply to sam2142 [2010-09-08 18:26:34 +0000 UTC]

mm. I'm hoping that by using reference images a few times with metal, it will help me understand it better before I try it on my own.

thats not a bad idea actually i might try that, apparently a good way to master reflection is to draw a spoon
