Concepts



I've been working on many projects at the moment but the most I am having fun with are the personal projects. Creating concept art is the one thing that doesn't feel like a chore to me and could sit all day doing it . Though after a while of doing it you forget the basics and lose the right way.

So this time I sat down with the task of creating a new character and remembered back what some of the basics were. What came to me was silhouettes. Its odd how a refresh like that brings some drawings to life. It also helps your mind think of new idea's and concepts.







One technique I have got my mind around is that when you can help it is don't "chicken scratch" or don't use messy lines on your sketches if you don't mean to. Confident single lines are the key, the more lines you have the more detail you put in and the brain tries to add everything up but if you have just small amounts of lines the more your brain has to assume and for some reason it looks better. I don't know how right that way is but its working for me at the moment.
