Erdgeist's Dinosaurs and Guns!

Postby Erdgeist » January 3rd, 2011, 3:25 am

Hello there!
I'm Erdgeist, and I...like mint-chocolate ice cream!

My drawing and colouring styles have changed a ridiculous number of times last year, so I hope to also improve a bit this year!


Okay here we go

This drawing is almost a month old, but it pretty much marked the beginning of a completely new colouring style for me.
And the concept was so fun to work with that it made me want to try starting up a webcomic based on it, so...here I am!

I just wanted to try drawing a side profile. And a bigger gun!
This gun is like some really weird cross between an assault rifle and a submachine gun, and maybe even a revolver, because I couldn't decide on which one to draw.
Image

And this was a shoddy attempt at drawing in a vaguely Professor Layton-esque style (especially since I didn't use flat colours), but it was fun! And my hair colouring style has since gotten shinier compared to the other two drawings!
why yes I actually drew this just because I wanted a new forum avatar
Image

I hope you like them, and I'll see what I can come up with next time! ★

Wow. Your coloring is absolutely gorgeous. So soft and glowy.
I think my favorite part is the blue highlight in the hair on the first/second pictures. <3
Great stuff.
oh, girl.

Whoa, thanks so much! I hope to keep improving!
The blue highlights in the hair, huh? I'll have to remember that! ; )
Thanks again!

I've got a bit of an art block today, and I found that drawing the weirdest stuff ever usually helps me, so here are some sketches!

Have some dinosaurs and the same guy drawn in five different styles!

I swear I should just completely switch my drawing style over to that Layton-esque one

Moar dinosaurs please.

We need more comics with dinosaurs in them.
I love you, spam bots.

Sweet, a fellow dinosaurs fan?! (I'll have to draw more!)

And I would definitely be interested in seeing a dinosaur comic, too! ★

Wh-Whoa, thanks! I'm glad you like my drawing style, too! :'D
I really like adding tons of shine and glow when colouring! ★

Aw, thanks! :'D
Dinosaurs, zombies, and really strange facial expressions are secretly some of my favourite things to draw. ★

Juuust a random attempt from yesterday at using shades of black and grey instead of colouring

Image

As you can see, my sketch comics look horrible without colour haha
And weirdly enough, this took about half the time it usually takes me to do a coloured page? (but it was kind of fun!)

It was refreshing drawing something un-serious for once!
It was initially going to be the first page for a new comic, but then I realised that I might want to go about it differently, so it ended up here instead of there, haha.
