Not quite a doodle

[Laurelin]

Here we go. Before I get back to Summer's picture I'm practicing with black and white again. I've been dying to draw this one. Black and white high detail is my favorite thing to do, I'm not sure why.

About 20 minutes in.

I'll keep you posted as I work.

Sorry for the bad pictures. I need to get a scanner

Envy!! I can't wait to see another 20 minutes Your high detail looks like photos done in pencil.

 

[smkie]

Yay! I love to watch the progress. Looks great so far.

 

[Laurelin]

I think this is about 1 1/2 hours... I always forget how long these take. The Summer picture was 6+ hours so far.

It's been very calming so far though.

 

[Izzy's Valkyrie]

Gorgeous

Your high detail is just amazing! I love b/w HD pictures, especially when you can see a "focus" point and then the rest just trails off.

 

[Dogs6]

WOW! It looks amazing

 

[Romy]

That's gorgeous Laur, can't wait to see it progress.

 

[CharlieDog]

I am totally jealous. If I come visit you can you show me how to draw like that?!

 

[Laurelin]

Here we go... lost track of time.

Ignore the right eye right now. We're having a difference of opinions lol.

 

[Laurelin]

I think I'm going to buy a scanner tomorrow.

 

[AllieMackie]

I'm LOVING IT. BTW, last I checked, you can get a decent scanner for like, 40-50 bucks! A worthy investment for any artist!

 

[smkie]

I had a really nice one until I wore it out that was awesome at picking up minute pencil shading. Wish I could remember what it was. Your progress is first rate!

 

[Phoenixangelwyngs]

OMG!!! Jealousness! I wish I could draw like this... would rally love good lifelike drawings of my doggies!

 

[Laurelin]

Thanks guys! Haven't had a chance to work on it the past 2 days. Hopefully I can get a few hours in today and tomorrow. I can't wait to get it finished.

 

[LittleBigDog]

Beautiful drawing! Fascinating to see the progressive photos.

 

[Laurelin]

Been reworking a few things. Nothing too new. And it's a terrible pic with a lot of glare in places. I still have no scanner lol.

ET: Slightly better? I dunno. *Needs scanner.....*

 

[Brandyb]

Excellent, excellent work! I love the way you use your lines. Can't wait to see it completely finished!!

 

[smkie]

^^^^ I do too. I like that you don't over model it either. Keeps it fresh.

That is amazing.
All I can draw is stick figures. :rofl1:
