[Digital Art] Experimenting with new techniques / Experimentando con nuevas técnicas
Vestiges of an ephemeral life / Vestigios de una vida efímera
Welcome and greetings to all the community of Steemit, today I bring you another work in digital art, full of details and animations to make it more dynamic and entertaining, in the following I show a little evolution I have had with this new tool, in addition to sharing the knowledge acquired, also opens a new section, which aims to explain a little more the process of drawing. The intention of this drawing, was to achieve the transition between the art of animation to a more realistic one, for this purpose I chose a drawing of my authorship made in times of the university.
Bienvenidos y saludos a toda la comunidad de Steemit, hoy les traigo otra obra en el arte digital, llena de detalles y animaciones para hacerla más dinámica y entretenida, en la siguiente muestro un poco la evolución que he tenido con esta nueva herramienta, ademas de compartir los conocimientos adquiridos, tambien se estrena una sección nueva, donde se pretende explicar un poco más el proceso de elaboración del dibujo. La intención de este dibujo, fue la de lograr la transición entre el arte de animación a uno más realista, para este fin elegí un dibujo de mi autoría hecho en épocas de la universidad.
In a post-apocalyptic world plunged into darkness and deep darkness, a small ray of light refuses to be extinguished. A beautiful girl, the last survivor of what was once an advanced society, watches with heaviness and helplessness as the last vestiges of life disappear before her eyes.
En un mundo post apocalíptico sumido en tinieblas y una profunda oscuridad, un pequeño rayo de luz se rehúsa a extinguirse. Una hermosa chica, la última sobreviviente de lo que en el pasado fue una sociedad avanzada, observa con pesadez e impotencia como los últimos vestigios de vida desaparecen frente a sus ojos.

Drawing development / Desarrollo del dibujo ✏️
Para este proyecto se aplicó una técnica un poco menos metódica y elaborada, pero sin restar calidad y detalles al resultado final, consiste en utilizar una menor cantidad de capas, con la finalidad de mezclar y difuminar los colores directamente, como si de una pintura real se tratase, se obtiene un acabado más natural y menos animado en comparación a los Posts anteriores.

STOPSo beautiful! Are you interested in commissioned works paid in sdb or steems?
I am flattered to know that my work is valued, and that I would be willing to pay for them, if I would like to later offer my drawing services, but at the moment I can not for time factor, I do not want to make a commitment and then not be able to fulfill. Maybe in the near future I will have more time.
Thank you very much for your reply, please let me know if/when you ever have the time to do so!
Good morning @djennyfloro, I am writing to take your proposal, I am interested in knowing what type of design I would like you to make, because I have enough time and I have improved a lot in digital art, if you are still interested, do not hesitate to contact me to offer my services.
¡Bellísima ilustración! Tienes seguidora nueva. Saludos ♥
Muchas gracias, me gusta que hayas valorado el trabajo.
Te quedó muy bien @victartex :O me sigue sorprendiendo tu talento para hacer estos dibujos digitales, sigue así! La manera en la que explicas todo me encanta!
Gracias, la idea es ir mejorando con cada trabajo para sorprender a toda la comunidad.
She is pretty, somehow I still like your black and white shading better than the colour version. Don't take is as a critique per se I've done the same thing and still do when I started painting in digital, things get to washed out and polished and sometimes even thought the "Line" is not that "realistic" it has a strong effect in the drawings. My good friend and illustrator Charles Vess (he's one of the greatest of this generation, just won the Hugo Award as best illustrator) told me, Pris, you get "too clean" keep some of your original lines and mess into the coloured version and I've tried to keep some of it, and I feel it got better.
I don't take your comment badly at all, I understand perfectly what you say, and I appreciate it is observation, I'm still in a period of learning with digital art, I still need to turn on many things. The observation you made is very valid, so you would not lose the essence of the original drawing.
I'm in the same journey myself, digital is a way to enhance things. It's clean, it's faster, it's less "messy" but it has that ZOOM that allows you to get into details so much that sometimes we lose the overall look of things. Like in my first album in 2006 I switched to digital for some drawings and I spent half a week in a raven that was meant to be printed at 1 centimeter. So we are often told, ohh smooth lines, ohhh more realism, but I believe the fresher are the inbetweens those were we keep our "essence" but use the digital to enhance. Your line work is very fresh and very steady, I think some of it would still provide strenght to the final result. If it's your choice, it's all about choices and they are personal, this is YOUR ART there is no right or wrong there. Enjoy!
