Ziggy Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 If that's your first time out of the box, and you've only had the thing for two weeks, I'm super impressed! Keep practicing, you've got talent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Did you do all the rivetty lookin' things too, or just the blue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimbrandt Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Not bad..... try and go a little softer with the lights n darks. The other thing you can do it after you do the rivot take and place a small round peice over it. Then do a soft white on the bottom and a soft shadow on top. This will give the illusion that the metal has been slightly endented by the rivot. Not a bad start.... hey, trust me. the first one I did looks like s**t compared to what I do today so don't sweat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reimbrandt Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 yeah... twitchn sucks........ sneezn is worse. LOL you know if you take and just do a broken stripe between you blue/silver it wouldn't look as bad as you think it does. Maybe a bright green or something..........

Reimbrandt Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Uh.... I had a guy in my last AB class that said he went to some free stencil thing online. I guess you download/print off a stencil then cut it yourself. I have cut a handful or more of my own skull stencils just so I have my own style. I use, like, half a folder or something stiff like that. they don't hold up to bad.......... and your right. the stencils are pensive. my fire stencils cost me $150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candybluzx6 Posted June 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 thats a good idea. i tride to shadow around where the blue and silver meet to make it look like the silver sits in lower but i dont think i got enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reimbrandt Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 try the stipe.... you'll see the shadow isn't bad. Keep at it and you'll get the hang of it. so many drop it cause they cant seem to get a handle on the control of a airbrush. I have been at it for over 13 years and love it. One major point of advice.... if you are thinking of making it a career keep a real job for as long as you can till your name and rep gets you a real decent client base. the starving artist we get labeled with is for a good reason. Anyway.... heres one that I just did. Like I said, I've came a long way from where I started. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reimbrandt Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 I love that stencil set...... gonna probably pick it up myself. keep on fartn around...... thats how things develope. once you have the basic stencil layed out try and take n lay some detail inside that. Thats what they are for is to speed up the design and give you the basic perportions. Have fun with it and make it your own............
