FMA band sketch #4

FMA band sketch #4

I thought I’d show my progression as I make an image. So I choose this rather complex one of Roy and Ed playing guitars, which is from a fanfiction I read.

I checked the faces of the characters against the manga and anime pictures from FMA that I have and fixed the faces. Roy was a little off and Ed’s hair was a little strange. Penciled this picture in 3 parts so that I didn’t have to struggle with the guitars and the mics, which were really complex, with the pencils of the characters. I used Photoshop to put the 3 pieces together so I could then ink from it.

I finished this picture early Thursday for A-kon 15′s art show. I have 6 steps in total for the drawing of this picture. This is part 3. Drawing the guitars and the microphones was tough. Mostly it was a lot of reference.

Edward in Painter Classic

Edward in Painter Classic

Just a test. Ugh. Painter hates me but I have a fondness for the water color brush. Although I hate that you can’t sample colors on a wet canvas.

Also I know that there is tracing paper in this version but I have no idea how to use it or what it does. Still I feel okay about this picture. Even if it’s not quite what I wanted and Ed is totaly off model. =_=;

I drew him from memory.

More work on the picture of Ed and Roy in rock band… snicker. Here I’ve got Roy’s bass in and done but not Ed’s guitar. I plan for Ed to have a flying V guitar so that he and Roy don’t have the same looking instrument. Also Roy’s body will change directions since I don’t like it is it.

God, guitar’s are tough to draw. Also I’m avoiding Ed’s arm

This image is what my rough sketchs tend to look like. I’ll start with the rough placement of the characters and the face first. I’ve been trying to not work to much on the faces but that tends to be how I’ll start a pictrue. The guitars and the bodies are barely there but the faces are almost completely drawn though not to my tastes… they seem a bit odd. Update to come soon.

FMA: Run Alchemist!

FMA: Run Alchemist!

So I drew a really cute SD Full Metal Alchemist picture for A-kon. Here Ed and Al run from Whinry who’s hopping mad.

This wouldn’t have taken as long as it did if I hadn’t gone into Adobe Illustrator to create the parody logo that no longer reads Hagane but something else. I’m not sure why the logo needed to be so perfect but there you go. That’s my obsession. =D

Too bad only like 4 people will find it funny. =/ I waste time. Colored in Photoshop.

The original 8.5×11 ink drawing is for sale. Comment on this post for information.

So I got new pens today that are very nice. They’re these little refillable nib pens. They make this smooth thin line with a slight natural line variation (it’s a nib pen). Very good for getting that thin line manga type style. Ah, Japanese art supplies. Sigh.

Anyway this is Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist… and really this isn’t a full picture this is just me fooling around drawing him to get his design down. I just inked it and scanned it in to Photoshop. Added some computer cel shading. Hmm, maybe I should break out my paints and do some cels for A-kon.

Edward grown up?

Edward grown up?

Just a simple drawing of Edward if he were about 3 years older. I drew this to remind myself that the character is actually 15 and I really shouldn’t be drawing him in such terrible poses (not shown of course because it’s embarrassing).

Edward Elric at 18?

Original Sketch is tiny and somewhere in my room. I’d sell it, of course, if I can find it. Comment if you’re interested. =]
