That is a beautiful picture. Are you ever going to release it as a poster? I'm sure there are many Klingon fans out there that would love to get their hands on this. It would go wonderfully on my walls with my other Klingon art. Dunqu’!!! That is a beautiful picture. Are you ever going to release it as a poster?

Generally though, you dont want to use straight white because it makes the object look chalky. Greg, I use overlay out of habit. many other modes work as well.

I just overlay out of habit, and the color alteration does make happy accidents every now and then. You're right, screen works great as well Tom, that’s great advice.

]]> Comment on Figure Quick Sketch – Torso Study by admin http://www.freshdesigner.com/figure-quick-sketch-torso-study/comment-page-1/#comment-273 admin Fri, 05 Mar 2010 06:33:48 +0000 http://www.freshdesigner.com/2009/09/tutorial-figure-quick-sketch-torso-study/#comment-273 Thanks for checking it out stinky. Great question. Edgework is key. A crisp edge is fine, sharp edge. Think of a thin, crisp line. A firm edge is between crisp and soft. It's a soft edge that still has shape. So it's not quite sharp, not quite soft, but somewhere in between. It's better if I show you an example than try to explain it. Send me a pm or I'll post a tutorial in the future.

I have a little question. Could you define what a crisp edge and firm edge is? I believe I understand the difference based on looking at the picture and how you drew the edges where there is the greatest contrast as opposed to those with lower contrast but want to make sure.
