Simple Beauty

Postby Sakarilynx » Thu Sep 12, 2013 4:18 am

I never realized how pretty quails are until I attempted to draw this one. They have such beautiful colors! Whenever I see them I just tend to laugh at their funny little run, and their cute little hair-dos. But they truly are beautiful... and difficult to draw. XD

Timer is off by about 30 minutes or so.

Comments/Critiques/Likes are greatly appreciated! ^^

I use an airbrush for virtually everything, I just vary the opacity for the various details. What do you typically use for a main tool? I've always been curious.

pencil tool on 128 opacity at like size 2 is amazing
or pen tool at a low opacity like 60 on size 9-18 is freakin awesome
spray paint tool is my 2nd most used

Good to know... I need to start using a pencil or pen tool more. XD I love the airbrush way too much! I really like it for details like fur and feathers that need to look softer. If I were to draw sharper objects I would definitely prefer the pencil or pen.

I think my favorite part about being one of your art stalkers is watching you and seeing how much you have been growing. This is truly stunning. The detail on it's head blows me away!

Thanks so much! That means so much to me! I feel like I am improving a lot... I've found that pictures like this come much more easily now. The head is my favorite part of that picture as well. ^^
