11 min read
Do you have any original character and allowing people to draw them? 

I've occasionally drawn random people's ocs [and sometimes fanart] on sketchbook in my freetime for practicing purpose.

if you have any oc you can share, feel free to share their reference picture here [If I drew them I will show the picture to you] [I prefer girl character and cute boy :)

I can't guarantee that I will definitely draw every characters showing here, so dont expect too much about it, I will only draw them randomly in my freetime.

[It would be nice if you could put thumbnail image instead of just putting a link, it's easier to view]

Anonymous question about how to be a good artist

3 min read
Anonymous said the following:

I'm sorry for bother you again, can I ask you about something personal?
What should I do if I want to be good artist?
Is practice good enough?

Reply :

What kind of good artist you wanted to be? I will teach you about the middle path then, because taking the extreme paths on each side is not recommended according to my experience. [super-duper skilled artist who lusts for skills nor starving artist who only draw lazy art and do extremely minimal things]

practice as often as your time permits, for regular art [generic drawing/coloring art] there are 4 rooms in the artist's heart, drawing skills, coloring skills/color theory, art composition skills, and imagination, try to practice all of them if possible. 

And do not compare yourself with other people, some people said it is good to compare yourself with others, to improve your skills sky high , if you still have this ego, the more skilled you are, the more unpleasant you will have if you find someone better than you , Do not think that you are better/equal/ or worse than them, This is one of the 10 fetters that should be discarded [If you wish to live peacefully in this messy world], Try to throw away this ego and practice with calm/peaceful mind, always realize that everyone is equal and balanced, someone who is better at drawing maybe bad at doing other tasks. someone who can't draw is better at doing something else, Artist's life is not just about art. 

[unfortunately, I also wish to teach you that lusting/liking for anything that can be seen with your eyes, is also one of the ten fetters, [I'm trying/learning to discard it too], But this maybe a bit too much to say on art website.

and more importantly, dont forget to help others

I have taught you my favorite simplified way of the artist life [middle path], to improve your skills and to maintain your mental condition without becoming crazy, I hope you could be a good artist with calm mind if you follow my instruction. 

I know my reply doesn't sound so nice to some people, I also open for discussion in this journal.

The confusion in my mind about anime and art.

4 min read

===============



Hi there, Haven't updated my journal in a while, I hope everyone is alright and live a happy life.

    Let's me get straight to the point. sorry If my remaining ego have driven me to type something stupid, But at least I'm being honest to you, I also wanted to practice writing long essay in English too.

I'm always open for your critique and suggestion, But please write it in a respectful manner.

    My own feeling about using anime in my art, you might notice that I always use shape and form of anime in most of my artworks, But my inner side always tells me that I don't have that much interest in it, I like to go to art museum instead of anime convention, I like to watch cartoon more than watching anime, I like to read aesthetic/philosophy and other books more than manga or doujin, [forget about video games, I've decided to quit it, cold freaking turkey] my only activity related to game is listening to games music/bgm.

But nevertheless, The main form/shape and object in my artworks are always related to anime. because I still like using it the most. compared to cartoon/realistic/ or other art styles. 

    I don't know, maybe my main purpose about using anime is just for fine art, while many skilled people might think about using it for other purpose [Yet I still need to use it to earn money to keep my stomach full and healthy, so I can produce good works, But I always believe that my main purpose is still for brightening the world, cheering up sad people, not mainly for other purpose at this moment.] this might be why some people who tend to dislike anime so much still have minor interest in some of my anime art.

    I always read and study about art to improve my aesthetic skills and the way I view art and the world around me, my inner side have spoken that craftsmanship skills is not my main priority, My anime works might looks out of proportion in the eyes of beginner and professional, but I always believe to follow my feeling instead of following the rule that makes everything look correct and perfect, Which will lead to depression and make my art look like it has no mystic. 

   I tended to be a competitive people before and I've competed with myself all the time, But in the end I've realized that competition in art will only lead to depression and ruin my artwork, so I've stopped competing with anyone, even with myself, me and the other me have decided to cooperate with each other instead of competing, I've stopped comparing my new work with my old works, we have helped each other and then created this picture together.


   [A work of friendship maybe, lol I dont know, I didn't watch MLP that much, my favorite type of cartoon is Superjail]
   If you see it using your aesthetic feeling, you might see a lot of happiness, which expresses freedom and joyfulness, I cannot express this at all if I were still feel competitive.

    I believe that art is like a mirror that reflect your own self, Showing your feeling and story which is going on in your head, even if you try to lie or distort it, Your art will speak for itself, And it will always speak the truth.
   
 I want to hear some opinions from other people mainly in anime art and the way you think about art maybe, because I feel like I haven't communicate with people that much.

Journal updated, with my scanning technique

NOTE ME


=======


Hi there

I've got so many questions about how I scan my traditional artworks, I also wanted to try out my deviantart Sta.sh storage, so I've uploaded some scanned files and put them on this journal.


==================


Here's my method.

: I use HP G4050 scanner
: My current working OS is Windows 7, but I always use Windows XP to scan my artworks
: I always put 2 bluish-tint transparent films under my pictures when scanning. [You can buy transparent film at stationery stores.]

: Then adjust colors with photoshop, I always set contrast to [+12] or [+14] and I always use legacy contrast.

: I also adjust sharpness sometimes.
[filter>sharpen>unsharp mask> and adjust radius to : +1 pixels.

: Remove all eraser dust using clone stamp tool and it's done. =)

*********
*********

Someone might wonder why don't I use windows 7 for scanning, why do I have to put 2 transparent films underneath, and why they have to be bluish tint, I have uploaded some sample images for you to compare.


===================


I will use my vocaloid watercolor sketch.


This one was scanned using Windows 7, Scanned with same scanner, You might notice that colors look somewhat too dull.
Even when I took those films out,  all colors are still dull.

Click at pictures to full view.



===================

This one was scanned using Windows Xp [service pack 3] , Colors seem to look much better, But I didn't put 2 transparent films under it, You might notice that the picture is really bright, my diluted winsor orange is almost unseeable.



===================

*I've put 2 transparent films under this one to soften the overbright effect of my scanner, It looks good enough in my opinion.



===================

Then I cropped it/adjusted contrast/sharpness, removed scanner dust, and it's done. =)



===================

Here are 2 samples about why do I have to use blue tint transparent films

Christmas Sheep 2011 : 248 by emperpep

Picture on the left was scanned with my G4050 scanner with 2 yellow tint transparent films underneath [those films turned yellow because they are really really old, lol] so try to buy a new film if possible.

And right picture was scanned using my parent's Canon all in one printer, Colors on the left picture still look more brilliant, but too yellowish in my opinion, So I prefer to stick with blue films, You can look at other watercolor paintings in my gallery, Most of them were scanned using blue tint transparent film. emperpep.deviantart.com/galler…


****And Please keep in mind that some scanners don't need transparent film, [such as all in one printer/scanner] If scanning result doesn't look too bright then there is no need to use it.

===================

I hope this journal will be helpful for you, I want my journal to stay informative because I might not update it for a big while. =)
