Sketches 03/01/2023, Natsumi, Lolita Fashionista, Head Practice

Practice sketches of Natsumi and Catherine.

Hey, it's been a while since we've seen Kamiko dressed in Lolita, huh?

I found some great videos on youtube and I've been practicing drawing heads and figures again. I'm really enjoying it. The practice is helping me solidify and rethink a bit about how I draw the head. Here's a link to the video below if you want to check it out.

For a while I was playing with the AI tools, you know the ones, Stable Diffusion and Midjourney, and while they're fun to play at being an art director and asking the machine to dream up the things in my head, nothing beats putting pencil to paper, okay, okay, digitizer pen to digitizer screen and drawing.

There's something nice about the act of doing it. It never grows old for me. In the end, to know that I made the thing, that means more than all of the pretty pictures the machine can generate.

This is weird that there's a post in the middle of the week right? Well, it's time to experiment and spice things up a bit.

I guess. We'll see how it goes.
