RE: Why Won't This Paper Pinch Zoom? Going Back to Basics...
Welcome to my manual world where there is no zoom or anything like that, where if I use charcoal I have dirty hands of charcoal on all sides hehehehe
I change my sheets for your iPad Pro hehehehe (lie). I can not say much about digital art because I've never worked with that, but I do work with paper and pencil and I know I have a long way to go and improve, but I think digital art is easier because if you draw a picture on paper and pencil and at the end for some reason you make a mistake, basically you lost the hours of work and you must start over again, but with digital art that does not happen because you can make mistakes in many things but you can always fix it and return to your job.
It brings me back to the ways I worked for many years. Digital is wonderful for all the reasons you say, but making something physically and having a physical piece of original artwork is wonderful as well.
I’ll always have the safety of doing both. If something needs fixed I can edit it digitally afterward, as I’m more concerned with how the work will print or be reproduced, so I’m less upset if there is a mistake in the original!
Your practice and skills now will only make working digitally all the easier when you have the opportunity!
I don't know if you caught this video but this is the set up I want, big screen right next to the drafting table. Actually I can just embed, here is the video:
Currently I resemble more of the Sanford Greene with everything in cups lol
No, I haven’t seen this series of videos. Very cool! I love all the methods... I’m so torn between them!
I gotta admit I’m not sure what that big screen is doing... it looks like he has a Cintiq type tablet that has a screen and he just glances at the big screen occasionally to get a different view of his composition. I’d probably just end up streaming episodes of Family Guy on it as I worked!
I hope to have some day my own team to make digital art so I can say better about the subject.
But while that comes I do my drawings with pencil and paper as you say, so that when I get my tablet it makes me easy to do digital art.
