06/03/09 • Okay, here is the first draft of my latest piece, taken from the Wall•e credits:

11/03/09 • Sorry about the delay, I don't get much time to draw at the moment. Anyway, here is the next stage of my 'Down to Earth' picture:

I've added colour to all areas of the picture and am now working on deepening the colours and shades so they stand out more. Unfortunately my scanner does not pick up colours all that well so the real picture is actually somewhat darker than this. There's a lot of detail that you can't really see on the scan, such as on the sea and the mountains. I'll see what I can do to fix it, someone I know has to have a better scanner somewhere...
Again comments. suggestions and criticisms are welcome.

Unfortunately as of yet I have been unable to locate a decent scanner. I have also discovered that my coloured pencils are way too soft to achieve the kind of contrast I want. So I have attempted to alter the colour of my picture on my computer:

Unfortunately I think that this is the first time ever that I have used a computer for art...
Basically this is the same as the previous picture but I've changed the saturation to make it darker. I've also added the lyrics to Down to Earth down the side, these are too small at the moment however.
All in all things are not going too well...

The song lyrics are from 'Down to Earth'. Although I had to cut some of the end of to make it fit.

It seems that my coloured pencils are very soft and it makes shading difficult, oh well.
In the meantime I'll keep playing with it on my computer and see what this computer program can do. I haven't really used it before, and I'm not good with computers, so it could take a while...
Hah, the number of pictures I've intended to hang up but never have! I actually have some frames now though, so maybe this time!

I love your Define Dancing drawing best! I love how you added little details like the rivets on the ion flares' panels, or the BNL label on the fire extinguisher. The shading is impeccable too! I agree with the rest it would look better without outlines, but other than that, it's one of the best B&W pieces I've seen on the forum!
The Down to Earth drawing is pretty good too, though IMO it's less detailed. Eve also looks longer and more odd-shaped than in the Define Dancing drawing, so maybe you can fix that a little. I like the magenta sky and the scenery, it's quite nice. I also liked how you incorporated the Down to Earth lyrics running down the side, I squinted and made out the lyrics before you mentioned it a few posts down. It's good that you're learning post-production editing, nothing like using the computer to tweak the scan a little.
It's very interesting to see how you develop your artwork in progressive stages. Can't wait to see the finished product of Down to Earth, and the Ratatouille drawing!

I'm trying to get more detail into the 'Down to Earth' piece with my coloured pencils but it's not going well... I'm also going to see what I can do about EVE, thank you for pointing out that she is too long 'thedriveintheatre', I guess I was so busy on the background I forgot to work on the characters.
Anyway I'm going ot start on my Ratatouille piece. I haven't given up on the Wall•e one but I can't lug my box of coloured pencils to college everyday whereas I can take my normal pencils. I should have a preliminary sketch done for tomorrow or Thursday.
