Throw it UP! (Devil Horns)
Add comment October 4th, 2008
Today Val came over and brought some more pig skin (her Boyfriend Randor). This is her own design of the Metal Fingers made famous by our man Dio.
She has done her self and some fill on other people and fruit, pigskin and practice skin. All are different and I have done all of those now myself.
So this was her willing victim as I over saw her process.
I first did some outline so Val could see how I do it. You can see how I line sculpted some lines I did double outline like on the bottom and others I did thick and thin starting from a point
Then she went and finsihed it as I watched. As you can see the lines are a little shakey. Ok alot shakey and inconsistant. I guess I was making her nervous like when you have to do public speaking while urinating in front of an audience.
Before we went on I fixed the outline as best as I could it’s still a little thick on the Index finger and in some spots. That can wait till it’s healed then to over work or cause a blow out. I know some might think it’s wrong for me to fix the lines but we have the pics to document and she was there seeing what she did wrong and she watched as I corrected the lines. I know this is a learning process but Randor the man meat has to live with this even though he is a willing guinea pig.
Next we moved onto shading and fill. This is always the easier part so I did a little and this is mostly Val following her art and adding more to give a clearer light scource.
Here is the finished I showed her how I do the fill with small circles at a 45 degree with a slight over lap. Work a little, wipe, dip and keep going. Slower is faster this is her first time using a mag . Not bad for using a mag for the first time. Red is hard to get to be a nice flat fill.
Except for some little stuff it pretty much came out close to the original design. We used a 7 round liner a 7 standard mag. we used Millenim Viper Red, Black Cherry Red, Kuro outline and Millenium Power White.
