Rinnemi
cinyu: Please introduce yourself. What are your interests?
Hello! My name is Rinnemi Don't want to show a photo on how I look or some other private things but I can tell you my age which is 21 as of this year.
As far as interests go, I like anime, manga, video games listening to music and drawing.
The last one was kinda obvious I guess, I like making doodles, character designing, illustrating and all kinds of other things.
Just your regular nerd that has nothing better to do with his talents.
Oh and I also like to try out food that I never tasted before, except for the repulsive looking ones.
cinyu: What software do you use for your art? How do you create your art?
I use a wacom intuos 4 as a tablet for digital art and use paint tool sai as my main painting program, I also have photoshop but I only use it for small detail changes at the very end.
What I do before starting doing an illustration is having an idea of what I want to draw.
Des it have lots of background? Is it focused on the character? What about the perspective? What kind kind of feelings is this drawing supposed to give? And all kinds of other things.
After I have a clear idea on what I want to do, I start doing some sketching on a layer with a thick brush tool in grey or blue, if it's supposed to have a background I have to pay more attention to the horizontal line and the vanishing point, since these are fundamental to draw out the right perspective.
In the next step I start a new layer for the character, I don't do lineart, I just draw a black silhouette and start to paint over it and make small changes to the light and shadow as I go, It's just that one layer, no other layer is needed unless I need to do some adjustments.
After finishing the character I begin with the background.
When drawing a background you have to keep in mind that in an open background, the farther away an object is the more it loses it's vibrant colors, it becomes clearer.
So in order to create that kind of effect, I stack multiple layers, and decrease the opacity in each layer depending on how far away the image in the layer is from the character.
After that, I just start painting over each layer at a time just like how I do it on my character.
It may be hard to understand but maybe my sppedpaint video on my original character amy be easier to understand.
Once I'm finished with that, sometimes I need to open it on photoshop to make some color adjustments or just some kind of special tool or brush from it.
After all that I reopen it on say, create a new layer put it on luminosity and create some pretty light effects, usually on the face, skin, background and some other stuff depending on the drawing.
And that's how I usually do it.
Everybody has his own way I guess.
cinyu: What is the most difficult part when you make a drawing?
I'd say it's when I try out something new, if not that then it's the hand, sometimes I just don't fell satisfied about itìs positioning or gesture and I have redo it all over again, otherwise it's the background, I just don't think that I'm proficient at backgrounds unlike some people say that I am...not yet atleast.
cinyu: What helps you impove the most?
I'd say practicing in general is the most efficient way, but otherwise, I looking at other peoples amazing drawings and watch some speedpaint and tutorials helps a lot.
cinyu: Who and what inspires you the most?
Any person that has amazing drawing skills inspires me to do better than I am today, but If I had to choose than I guess it's huke.
He is the reason I started making black blobs instead of the usual lineart and multiple layers of colors, at first I thought it was crazy but once I improved my drawing skills and tried it out myself, I noticed how much easier and less time consuming it was, and ever since then I drew blobs of black silhouettes instead of making lineart layers.
Oujiji
cinyu: Please introduce yourself. What are your interests?
Hello 0//u//0) you can just call me 12. Ahh, I like to draw obviously, but I also like to write stories too. I'm a gamer too, but I'm living out of it now since I'm going to be a college student soon. I'm into a lot of art related stuffs such as playing the guitar, piano, and singing too. I like to listen to some of the vocaloid's musical.
cinyu: What software do you use for your art? How do you create your art?
The software that I use are pain tool sai/ photoshops. Usually when I draw I do a very rough sketch of how I want it to look like, then I'll just trace over it. Then I color it (I don't have any particular coloring style right now, I'm still kind of in the process of finding it) then if I want too Ill just edit the picture with photoshops, although to don't use it much.
cinyu: What is the most difficult part when you make a drawing?
Haha, the most difficult part is having to think what to draw. Sometimes I just sit there and stare at the blank page for a while. The perspective is kind of frustrating too including the hand.
cinyu: What helps you impove the most?
What help me improve is by looking at artist works, and observe what are the step that they do. (I watch speed paint on youtube) but the important one is by just spending a lot of hour drawing. Sometime I stayed up till 3am just to practice because I wanted to improved more.
cinyu: Who and what inspires you the most?
There is a lot of people that inspire me a lot, but one of my favorite is daenarys. Usually the music help motivate me when I draw. But one of the thing that inspire me the most was seeing some artist old drawing comparing to their new ones, because I am hoping I can improve a lot more too as times passes by. I am pretty much looking forward to it too, so that's another thing that kept me drawing.
