Well, that sucks. The look is great, though. I get that it's sped up but man, that's the level of skill I am aiming for. To me, all the Wanted Hero art looks like the same style.
I mean I like seeing how the picture comes together, like with the shadows. It looks like you paint everything black that needs a shadow then change the transparency for light brightness.
I prefer to do each piece, but when I started doing a layer full black, I found it both easier on my eyes, and it helped me find those shadow spots I often miss...
It's been a while, but I have a digital drawing pad and I used to sketch a bit with it. It's actually easier for me to do that instead of paper, but shadows were a pain. I'll have to go back and try that again with this.
How long does it take to make a drawing like this in realtime?
Used to be under an hour to do the whole process -- the longest time being the conceptual -- the light, non-photo blue pencil work.
My hands shake so much now, it's taking me 3-4 hours.
...longer of the shaking s bad and I have to make a lot of corrections.
You can look at my work over the years and see the steady decline of the ability to hold a pencil and pen steady.
Still hoping I can draw till I kick the bucket.
I'm trying to convince myself that "Hey, you can just create a new drawing style -- a 'rough look'....so don't worry about it."

Well, good.
It's all me.
...slow or not, I love drawing so much.
And I love watching.
Wait, that sounds creepy.

Ta-DAAAAA.....give the man a PRIZE!!
That's exactly what I did, DW.

Plus it doesn't strain my hands so much.

Dad I wish you could have seen Lisa. She was enjoying the music so much, her little head bobbing, eyes closed, foot tapping.
When you finished inking she was in awe "Wow! Mom look at that."
We loved it 🤗 Super cool 😎
wooHOO.
More to come.
....always more.
If that was with shaky hands, where can I get a pair? Cool stuff, sir!
Thanks Neil.
Made my day.
