IronSide's ART - Please Comment - New Drawing - Pg 4

[IronSide]

Here is my drawing, however it is not finished,[ ErikaRaven1uploadZindy.jpg] I'm terrified to do hair, over many yrs of trying and yet fail. lol but yet i can draw horses manes and tails, how ironic. Please take a look and do feel free to give me feed back, I am currently taking the free 5 pencil lessons, I want to learn to draw as good as Zindy, and then maybe take the big plunge and learn to draw in color...lol

PS. Pencils used: 4h and 2B



Finished for Now, still needs touching up, just not sure where or how, without over doing it.

Okay, I tried doing the hair, [ErikaRaven4.jpg] and yet my airplane crashed on landing, lol the take off was okay (tampered stroke) - Darrel Tank | FivePencilMethod.com - method video 1...well I'll keep practicing, once I feel more confident i can then move on to video 2. The Hair is so wrong, however it is my first attempt to draw hair like i've seen here, so maybe it's not so bad. again the scanner does weird stuff ( lead - pencil ) reflects it funny.



please give me feed bk, suggestion are most helpful for me at this stage. thanks

Here is a picture that I did (draw) of my daughter . Now I have posted this so u can see how bad my hair drawing is..lol one days I'll be able to draw hair.. (My daughter is laying down on a park bench her hair is spread out around her ( in photograph) that I used.



PS. Pecils used HB, 2H, 6B

Okay here is my 1st and last color drawing I didn't, i need more training in the color department...not bad for first try. I use Crayola color pencils.

PS. OMGoodnes, I am laughing and laughing i'll laugh for days....In one of Darrel Tank | FivePencilMethod.com Vid's he said about colour book style.. i so did this in this drawing, lol, rotflmbo...this is too funny. just had to share my laughter.

I've added some close ups of this drawing sorry these were taken with my cell phone, I will try to scan it, it will be tricking cause it is in a very large book.





I scanned my drawing wow it shows the best true colors so far, however it was awkward trying to fit my large book on the scanner.



I had to use a magnifying glass to draw and color the ravens eye. so you have an idea of how small the eye is it is smaller than the keypad buttons on a cell phone... so if you ever need to drawing detail/size my suggestion is get a magnifying glass, works wonders.

I love the raven, it's really well done.

First of all welcome to the forum, nice to see you here. I've merges all your 3 threads into one. Please keep your drawings in one thread, that's how we usually do it here

It's great work, I like your darker style, the wings of the black and white drawings looks incredible so far, very soft but realistic at the same time. Hope to see more of your work.

Thank you very much, I've been practicing the Tampered stroke...I still haven't got it yet, I will soon though, practice makes perfect ...lol Well here is scan of my drawing (Print) that i did 2 yrs ago, I've have people over the yrs tell me that I should do something with my talent and sell my Art so I gave it a go, had prints done...and I only sold 1, i still have 29 prints in my closet...lol ( i did 2 print one of my horse and the other of a coon hound pup I will scan them both and post them. In the Horse drawing I can draw hair...too bad i have trouble with drawing people hair lol.

PS. my original drawing is professionally framed - it is behind glass and well protected from ( oxidization ), that is why I scanned the print. if u wish to see a picture (photo) let me know I will take a pic of it for you. thank you

PSS. Pencil used 8B

[IronSide]

here is my drawing of a coon hound pup this is 2 yrs ago, sorry the scan didn't work well, the print of this was too big and my original due to the led was reflecting weird in the scanner. so this is the best i could get for you.

PS Pencil used 6B
