hey guys. a little bit of progress today but need to chartge camera up.
for those who were asking. the image of tha lady is projected onto the case and very basic luines are drawn ( they must be basic of it just gets confusing ) then i sue the reference picture to get all of the highlights etc in the righ place. sometimes a bit tricky though !
its nto even worth thinking about drawing the image direct to the case for a few reasons.
1: Pencil lines !. guides would have to be drawn to draw the figure / detail in the first place and are very herd to cover
2: placement - a projector means i can fanny on with the placement of the design easily.
3: TIME !
so on with the picture:
First of all ill post the last picture from the previous stage to save you scrolling up and down ( so you can easily compare the stages)
this pic is taken from the first stage of 'low lighting' as i call it.
i tend to work from 50% ( mid tone) then go all the way up to 100% ( white) and then back from 50% to 10% ( Dark )
so this stage is about 40%
the arms are startign to take a bit of shape, although im gonna change one of them slightly.
btu this is the stages when the design comes to its own and really pops out
Rick
