Aw well thanks ^_^ Digital art is fun Hmm, honestly I'd say it also depends on what brand of colored pencils you have xD Prismacolors are more blendable while Crayola is a bit harder to blend colors. Though I can't really think of what I do specifically to bring out the color. I guess some basic tips I would recommend are not using black for shading. And moreover use a white pencil and go over the colors to blend them a bit (If you use Prismacolor though I have to warn that it makes the colors lighter, so you might want to use a Crayola or something...? ...I think Crayola works? Not sure honestly, I haven't done any colored pencil drawings in a while xD), I can try doing a drawing using them and if I notice anything else I can tell ya
You're welcome. I imagine it is, and look forward to trying it! (And may also look to your speedpaint vids for help. ) Oh, I hadn't yet realised that different brands also gave different results. (O_o) Oh, so the white pencil acts as a blending tool.? So that's what it's for. Well, I'll give it a go and tell you how it went, provided I used it correctly. Do you have a favourite art piece?
(Sorry for not replying to this before D:)
(Oh, I'm happy if they can help I'm not a expert but my ways work for me ^_^)
For sure, if I get new art supplies I always test out how they are different from the brands I have ^-^ Sometimes the difference is huge in quality or in texture or something. You can also use white colored pencils on black paper or dark-colored paper but it's useful for blending as well ^_^
Alrighty
Hmm. Honestly I'm not sure. I have a lot of favorites and I feel like I keep making new ones better than the last ones ^^'
Ooh, I haven't really tried any ink drawings...I love the clean feel it produces, though!
Would you like to have some pineapples with it?
Yeah! That's exactly why I picked up ink drawings. I love how clean and crisp it looks compared to pencils or other mediums, but smearing and mistakes are easier to happen. It gets better with practice. o-o
You one of them? O_o
I think I get to take a college course or two on this if I feel so inclined...I sure hope so.

...What do you mean? *innocent smile*
That would be awesome! If you have space while selecting your courses, of course.....Then let us hang on to hope
Fav. Art Tools: I mainly do digital and watercolour artwork now, with lots of sketching in between - and colour pencils / markers / acrylics / oils when I can!
What I like to draw: Animals mostly - lots and lots and lots of animals . . . especially horses and canines, in cartoon style as well as realistic. But I like to try draw anything for a bit of a challenge, including LEGO minifigs (trying to get the proportions and that shiny plastic effect right lol). Animation has become a fav. now too!
Art Question! : Is there anywhere to post LEGO artwork / builds here (or another site) other than the Lego Creations Galleries? Asking for my brother TIA!

I'm guessing you did your avvie? It's amazing, you've got the LEGO feel down great!
Well, there's LEGO Life, but you don't get any real feedback there.
