There was this outfit in an ad in Marie Claire that i wanted to draw Perg in. It is a "Perg is pretending she has a job or something" outfit. i decided i'd try and tablet it up, and the outcome is lackluster (awful, awful hands) but i spent enough time on it that i'm posting it anyway. Perhaps i will try again later. Or forget. We shall seeee.

Paint Tool SAI. Art/Character are mine, please no using/taking either, thanks. Faving w/o commenting is boo, etcetc.

You may not like the hands, but I'm glad you posted it because the hip/blouse area is spectacular. :3

I love the linework here! There's a great kinda exaggerated looseness to the lines that makes her hair and her pose come alive. The hair feels really slick and flow-y, and all of the exaggerated folds on her shirt give it an emphasis that helps to show off how she's showing off. :P

The pose is really strong, too. It immediately and believably feels like she's walking in a deliberate, showy, sexy way, which from everything I've seen fits her perfectly. And there's that edge, that sense of danger mixed in with it, which comes across really well. With this one moment captured, I can envision her hips swaying side to side as she takes each step, drawing attention in...and then when she stops to the awestruck guy at his desk, she calmly and yet scarily tells him to clear out his desk or get fried to a crisp. Or something.

ANYWAY. I think you did a great job of capturing her personality, and the mood of the hypothetical scene (where she has a job) really well. The linework, the pose, the dangerously seductive attitude that comes off clearly all work together to paint a picture in the mind as vividly as the picture on the page screen. I love how animated she how, how well you brought her to life in this pic. : )

The pen/vector tool in SAI does a good job of making things look animated/cartoony, but God help me i cannot figure out how to draw well enough with a tablet to really use it properly.

Tablets are such a tease. I wanted one soooo bad years ago, and when I got one for Christmas I was disappointed by how clunky and difficult it was to use. It just felt wrong, and in all the times I've tried to get the hang of it over the years, I've never gotten close to comfortable with the disconnect between tablet and monitor. Among other things. @__@

i think people tend to have this concept that programs or tablets have some magical ability to make art amazing? Like if you buy a really expensive tablet and photoshop suddenly the art will be incredible. But, man, i have seen people make incredible stuff in MSpaint with their mouse. Whatever the program is, people still have to learn it. The tablet disconnect i am... hoping to one day get over.

I know I've fallen prey to that kind of thinking, perhaps more with "if I had this certain traditional art supply/tool it would make my art so much better!" than with digital stuff. But I agree, that having Photoshop or Illustrator or whatever doesn't do much if you don't know what to do with it. Illustrator in particular made me go "ugh, no" until I had to learn it in school and now it's the art software I'm most comfortable with. Or at least, the one I use the most since it's what we work in at work.

But the tablet thing...is just so disheartening. Because the thought I had was, "whoa, cool, I can draw on a computer the same way I draw IRL, with a pen!" But it's just as challenging for me than drawing with a mouse. But more so in a way, because you have it in your mind not that it'll make your art better, really, but that it should feel as natural as drawing with a pencil on paper. But it's not. It's disorienting. You don't expect a mouse to feel natural or comfortable to draw with, but you expect holding a pen should be easy, and when it's not it makes it worse.

And THEN they go and make something like a Cintiq that seems like it could fix that problem, but they make it sooooo outrageously expensive that I'll never know. -__-

Yea, the tablet thing's unexpected. The disconnect is larger than i would have imagined, but i think it's a person to person thing. i know a bunch of people who are way more comfortable inking w/ tablets than pen and paper.

Hands, Hips, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes. I see what you did there.

Is she in mid-stride or standing like that?
