Quick presentation : i’m Cod Artx (or Armand if you prefer), artist and illustrator for years ago. I started with 2 years in an Art School in France, very classical : sketchs, paint and differents works.
Stop it for work, live in another city (Bordeaux), met people, build a family and make a baby.
Today i stop bad jobs to back on my real passion and draw every day.
I’m using differents technics : pencil, rotring, markers and a bit of Gimp but i never found a real tool on computer (i’m on LinuxMint) to draw like i want. And now, i have MyPaint. A BIG THX for that, it’s amazing, that’s the perfect tool for me and i’m coming here to share few works i made since i install MyPaint (2 days ago). Apologize for my english, i try to learn
I’m actually playing some Star Wars games (on mobile, not really on my pc), i’m a big fan of the universe since i’m a kid. My favorite characters are the jawas. There is so much details i love drawing : belts with pockets, clothes, very mysterious story, such a fan. So i draw a jawa and maybe he could be Akial, the only jawa who became a jedi.
there is my first work on MyPaint, just for test, no idea what i’m doing at this moment. This charac looks like Elvis, to be honnest, i’m NOT looking like Elvis, i’m a little bit cute (hahaha).
is it possible to turn off the compression (or data reduction) if you zoom out from a detail ? because if you visit the detail again (zooming in again) it looks different from what was drawed before . greets carypt
some caracters in your sketches respond very harsh and critical on your artistic ambitions . like an evil interference .
if i look the pictures : a painter (boring guy?) , a painter drawn as a filthy octopus sefliing his painting , a painter selfiing his comicbook now wearing the mask of death , then a knight apeares to fight (for art ?).
the infinite page is cool , but does it keep every pixel in it , would be nice . if the picture gets too big , and too massy the machine is overload , causes delay (understandably). the former versions had faster respond to pencils move .greeting carypt
-Boring painter : just a test, no line or idea, that is the only pict without line.
-Selfing octopus + the other (not a mask of death, just the flash burn his face, it’s a joke) : draw it for a competition, a SF comic book ask a pict with a selfie.
-The knight : i draw Link because i like Zelda and a friend ask to me to draw it to print and buy it, same reason for the Jawa and SW
-Infinite page : i don’t understand what you talking about when you say “but does it keep every pixel in it” (i’m french, sorry for my english) ?
To be honnest : what you are talking about ? XD I’m drawing, that’s all, for me or orders, that’s my work, nothing else.
