Inktober 16 - Click Click Boom

October 16, 2014

#inktober #inktober2014 #sketchbook #sketch #boom - working with a brush and marker in a free trial of Sketchbook Pro I downloaded while waiting for registry cleaning and malware scanning. Photoshop was acting up with program errors all in a row so I knew something changes. Not sure when/ where but its usualy from Malware being picked up. So ran SpyBot search and destroy and sho nuff, found stuff. And walla, after registry clean on a (surprise) photoshop related entry and some malware removal, restarted and photoshop worked long enough to let me finish saving out some new UTMNT pages and send to Nick! While waiting on all the scans and amidst helping the wife with a crazy exploding light bulb cleanup, I downloaded a demo for Sketchbook Pro which I did this sketch in, and a demo of Artweaver. Artweaver free edition lets you do way more. May become my solution for coloring if I ever decide to completely move from photoshop. Sketchbook Pro could easily be my go to as well. Gotta tell you I love the way it handles lines, pressure of the stylus and the overall feel drawing on it and the interface isn't too horrible. I just wish I could find a paint/ photoshop type program that had a Pen tool for outlineing and flatting and selecting areas. Thats my THINGGGG. I find the freehand lasso tool so archaic after using a pen tool in photoshop the last several years. So I'm on a hunt for a photoshop alternative soley for coloring and sketching. If anybody knows one that has a pen tool for selecting areas, and that lets  you do layers and lock transparent shapes. I'm interested. So hit me up. 
Also officialy caught up on Inktober.

Inktober Day 15 - Santa Noms

#inktober #inktober2014 #halloween #zombie #santaclaus #sketch
Day 15 digital inks sketch of zombie santa. Perhaps a commentary on this time of year? Where Walmart and other stores have christmas stuff out already and its not even Halloween yet? Who knows...
Went a little crazy with the blood effect haha. But I like how it came out with the 'Splotch' brush in inkscape.
Forgot to do yesterday's so this is it and then will do today's later on! Maybe warmup before tonight's October Microsale Event! Between 8pmEST and 12amEST the offer is open to anybody on any site but I will be on Livestream recording the drawing of a piece or two to show examples of what folks are buying and providing a location to come out and talk to me/ ask questions etc. 
Looking forward to it! See you soon!


Eryck on Studio Synergy 14

Inktober 14 - Mean Muggin


#inktober #inktober2014 #sketch #digitalinks Inktober Day 14! This time keepin it pretty straight forward with some Mean Muggin! Just a random muscular/ grimacy face with lots of loose shadow rendering. Had fun just goin freestyle and staying loose with the brush on this one and in the end used the white brush to clean it up a little here and there. Fun stuff. About 15 minutes start to fin just cause I got carried away with the strokes and 'details'. I originaly was trying to keep it a 5 minute exercise. Haha. Oops.
Great warmup to get the ol ink flowin and moving straight into some more Transformers page inks next!

Inktober Day 12 - Dwarf Bots

October 12, 2014


#inktober #inktober2014 - Day 12 featuring my original little robots behind the scenes the Dwarf Bots. Drawn in Inkscape! Goodnight folks!

Inktober Day 11 - Run Of The Mill


#inktober #inktober2014 #sketch
Day 11 - run of the mill - sort of a semi-anime-esque style of a property i'm looking to do more with very soon, Run Of The Mill. A fictional account of my self employed life as dictated by a authoritatiran dog. Fun stuff. This was drawn on my LG Optimus phone in sketchbook mobile with a fiber tip stylus.

Inktober Day 10 - Roboguise

October 10, 2014


#inktober #sketch Day 10 - A digitally inked piece of an original character i've always sorta kept in the back of my mind/ in sketchbooks - the ol scratchboard if you will but have never done much with. The mystery solving time traveling robot detective 'RoboGuise' - This time doing the medieval thing or something. 
Really kinda random haha. Enjoyed doing this on a portrait format monitor setup was a great pleasure to ink with its like working on a 11x17 paper but digital didnt have to zoom in hardly at all cause it was so large. Made the inks come out nice and crisp. The inks and the orange shades were all done in Inkscape. I'm seriously concidering moving to Inkscape for coloring as well now that I discovered it'll basicaly do muliply and screen settings on the layers. With the way photoshop is crashing lately and how fast efficient and freeing Inkscape is. Could be the future of EWG work, and the road to the next evolution of my quality and work flow. 
Day 10 down! Woot. Back to some more paid work this afternoon and then out for the weekend!

Inktober Day 7 - Graphic Thinker

October 7, 2014


#inktober #sketch

But day 7 is done! Woot woot.
About 15 minutes in Inkscape

Livestream Commission Poll!

October 6, 2014

I try every month to have at least one Live sketch commission session on Livestream and in the past its been held on Thursday Nights as a special 'Thursday Night Livestream'. My question is, what night would be better? Or would folks prefer to see a day devoted to open stream/ table so that no matter what time zone your in, you can make it out to buy some art and see it drawn live? So, sound off here! All day Saturday 'table'? Or a 4-6 hour evening session on what evening of the week? Your input will help decide the format of the next Live Sketch event. Every opinion/ suggestion will be heavily considered!
