'Foolish People' previews!
12/10/10 18:15![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
So, after the terrible failure of Ancien Régime project I decided to finally move my ass and work on my stuff for Foolish People.
This post is a little update on my improvements, and I hope it'll turn also into a place where other members can share their stuff and, why not, maybe enroll further volunteers :D ?

I FUCKING HATE DRAWING TATAMI.
--This said, let's have a look at the stuff :D

This is a tiny Itachi candyshot from Tengu, the Madara & Itachi story.
It's a mini two pages thing that I felt like drawing to add some mystery to the pairing >3
Its spin-off is this illustration of mine, and also features some vague subtexts about The Intruder, a tiny and dirty Madara/Fugaku thinglet that I wrote time ago ;D
And no, Itachi-chan is not stoned. Don't destroy my artistic self-esteem by saying it Dx !! (since I KNOW that you're thinking it ALREADY!)

This is from Expected Outcomes, the Fugaku/Mikoto story :3
Contrary to my previous project this ended up becoming a tiny 6 pages long comiclet... I wanted to make it long, angsty and deep, in the end I just cut the cool stuff out and presented you a tiny portrait of a kind, but demanding woman and a serious, but insecure man, playing with what we don't see on screen but can feel when dealing with married anime couples-- I also tried to play with some so-called "flaws" of Kishimoto stories-- Like the male characters being war-focused and the female characters being "forced" to turn into housewives once married...
Sometimes I really got to think that conformity is underrated...

Shameful Artist's moment: why I can't draw people in cool perspectives too ;_; ?!!
So, right now I can proudly say that I'm done with 2 out of three comics ù_u
In the end I decided to add a Itachi&Sasuke story, 'cause the two brothers definitely need more visibility XD I was bunnied with some kind of Nabari no Ou crossover-- Eheheheh...
If I have time I was also thinking of some illustrations for minor characters, like Kagami or Shisui... I'll see :3
Stay in touch for further updates ^_^

Date: 12/10/10 18:09 (UTC)I wish I could ink like that ;__;
I'm curious... what's the pen you use for inking? *can't see well*
no subject
Date: 12/10/10 18:28 (UTC)Thank you! Well, I actually pretty much suck at inking D': B-But I'm trying to improve!!
As for the pens, right now I'm using this (http://images.icecat.biz/img/norm/high/3917434-5517.jpg), but the one on the pic is this one (http://english.fila.it/media/2971/800301_TRATTO_PEN_BIG.jpg) :3
The first is cool china ink-based, the second is a classic marker water based-type... I tend to use the first for the outlining and details and the second when I want to darken certain areas...
In the picture I'm using the second for the details 'cause the cool pen is running out of ink, LOL XD

Date: 13/10/10 00:09 (UTC)Oh, I see... I use refillable fine markers (not sure of the name; first language is not English xD) like these (https://www.penfountain.co.uk/images/Staedtler%20Graphic.jpg). Had to buy them for a course at uni, but never again used them =="
I'll need to trace my pics to a better quality paper before inking OTL

Date: 13/10/10 17:11 (UTC)Oh, yes, I know those :D I used those when I was in Art School (=High School) ^_^ But they didn't look like a cheap alternative to common liners XD
Oh, I use cheap paper for copies :D It gets really terrible when you draw over and over it ^_^;;; But again, I'm too miser to buy better paper anyway >3> Expecially considering how much I use it!

Date: 18/10/10 02:14 (UTC)Actually happy to see you take it manually, because I really dislike drawing on a tablet *has not gotten use to the spatial difference* X3

Date: 18/10/10 08:35 (UTC)Plus, staring excessively at the screen makes my eyes bleed, so, at least I have a decent excuse to cover my digital artistic flaws x'D
