A most excellent drawing!

Is there a particular reason you use three different brands of coloured pencil? Also what do you mean by "black" and "stick"?

WickedIllusionArt In reply to Lamp0 [2018-03-30 16:37:59 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Polychromos are oil-based pencils and they are more translucent, can be layered more and are much easier to erase and can even be smudged/lifted off of this paper a little if working with blunt tip which helps to draw blurry feathers and do subtle dark grey shading. Coulorsoft and Luminance are wax-based pencils and they are much more opaque - the white pencil is used to create the strongest highlights on black paper. Black is black eraser - soft black eraser is recommended for black paper so it doesn't leave ugly eraser marks. Stick is eraser in stick form, such as Tuff Stuff Papermate for example.

Thank you very much!

It's mostly because my 4.5K watch base has left dA or is barely active so there's no one to push my work with views and feedback to a more visible position on dA. Also, traditional art in general is doing a lot worse on dA these past few years, other things took over.

Hvala!

Nije uvijek bilo tako. dA je otišao kvragu, od cca 2012. stranica je počela ubrzano propadat i sad je neprepoznatljiva. Prije je to bila glavna, najveća i najpopularnija stranica na kojoj je tona umjetnika bila super aktivna. Ja sam tu već 11 godina i nakon šta sam napokon dosegla određeni broj watchera i počela dobivat značajan feedback, to je potrajalo samo par godina i onda preko noći skoro sve je nestalo. Preko 90% mojih watchera je napustilo dA ili je jedva aktivno i nema nikoga tko bi pomogao progurat moje radove na neko vidljivije mjesto na dA tako da bit ih novi ljudi mogli vidjeti. Imam 4.5K watchera, ali rezultati su kao ih imam recimo 200. Npr. moj dA stats kaže prosječni "Views per deviation: 7099, ali u zadnje 2 god. moji radovi ne dosežu niti 1000.

Da, uvijek sam se pitala zašto ljudi kao vi ne dobivaju dovoljno pažnje. Hvala na odgovoru!
