    Drawing Plan 14: Bloop, bloop. Squirt, dribble—clink, clink, bam.

    Hi, friends, let us talk about yesterday and then move to the drawing plan 14. The day before included me wondering why it’s taking an hour and 14 minutes to write these every day. I badly wanted a solution to writing faster and wanted a way to springboard ideas. Then, I figured out that I can create a draft template to clone. The clone would have tags and some content that doesn’t change. Also, I needed a way to recall my ideas. Do you keep a highlight journal? Anyway, I’m planning on starting one up and hoping it will speed things up here. Anyhow, let us move to the next point, rock studies.

    The Drawing Plan 13: Ribbit ribbit. Quack, quack. Ribbit, warble.

    Hi, friends, let us talk about yesterday and then move to the drawing plan 13. The other day, I was writing the usual morning pages, then making my way to write the drawing plan 12. I’m slowly getting better and using the advice I got from my friend Nenad. He suggested I find a good time to post the drawing plans. Therefore, I created a tally board with a 12-hour clock. I’m going to slowly tally up the numbers from the reader to see what is the best time to post. However, generally speaking, it’s best to publish in the morning and not during the day when people are working.

    I didn’t start to tally up anything yet, but I set it up. Anyhow, what else happened the other day?

    Drawing Plan 12: Chug chug chug. Puff puff puff. Ding-dong.

    Hi, friends, I want to talk about yesterday and then move to the drawing plan 12. I spent a bit more time writing out the drawing plan 11 because I got a few new ideas from my friend. Also, running on low sleep the other day’s morning pages took me longer to complete. I haven’t slept well in the past week. It’s because I let myself get away with watching too many shows. For example, I start preparing for bed around nine, but I don’t get to sleeping till 11 or twelve. Then I still need to wake up at 6 am. The solution is easy, but I can’t seem to let go.

    Can I let go of watching late-night shows? I guess the better solution is to limit them to once a week, or maybe that’s a bit harsh. Anyhow, let us move to the drawing plan 12.

    Podcast Episode Two: Transcribing

    Transcribe it! Is it possible to write freely, draw freely without worry of search engine optimization? I long for having the ability to post images of my drawings. I’m striving to become an artist, and the steps I’m about to take will get me closer. Let me know what you think of the new format? A few weeks ago, I did another podcast on Quick Poses. It used a different way to describe the podcast.

    Transcribe: The Summary

    Full Transcript

    Hello everybody today I am doing something interesting with a podcast while trying to transcribe it at the same time. Always thinking like I’ve been writing these blog post stain some days Some Nights now I’ve been writing them down the weekend, but I always wanted to just draw and have my pictures sort of tell the story. But lately, I’ve been more worried about the SEO and making sure I have a story to tell before I share my artwork and it has really slowed me down. Probably wondering why I’m saying. At the end of my sentence so like I said before I am using an interesting method to transcribe my podcast/blog post I found something online about a Corky way to transcribe. So what you do is you open up a Google Docs or Word Microsoft Word is kind of similar to it. And you go to tools and enable voice recording. It’s a little tricky because you need to first start recording on your recording software. Okay, what kind of recording software am I using I’m using? The cool thing about that is it does two types of recording what is the text which is going to be written as I am talking and the other is recording my voice in the actual podcast as I’m talking. While I’m talking I’m looking at the Google Docs, and it’s typing exactly what I’m saying, but sometimes I got to go in there and correct it this is great. Okay, let me say that again this is great because I don’t need to pay somebody to transcribe my podcast, in fact, this is so easy I might just continue using this. Normally I shoot for 300 words or more when writing my blog post so I think this will really speed things up for me because now I can just focus on what do you call a drawing and not actually writing the damn thing. I can also have this podcast ready for you to listen to instead of reading my texts but if you’re up for reading, you can go ahead and read the text as well. Starting to get used to saying. All the time haha. So I think I’m about I’m about 40 minutes into the podcast.. 40 minutes 4 minutes yeah there you go don’t be an addition as a complete mystery to me we’ll need to figure out how to use it in the future. I did look into a subscription sorry at transcription service, and I’m going to give it a test to see if they do a good job and if they do I might give it a good review. I wanted to talk about what I did after I got home after work but I have to try to remember what that was. What did I do I worked on eating first and those watching an Andromeda to sci-fi Space movie with Captain Dylan Hunt. After that, I went over to my computer machine and I started working on would I start working out I went on you. My and I started looking at my environment course that I signed up for. What is this environment course it’s I want to learn how to draw environments for another project I’m working on so hopefully I can share some of those images with you in this blog post. After that I submitted the environmental work that I did for you tomorrow and I put it up my deviantART page for other people to look at I’m pretty proud of myself because I worked on this thing during my commute the second time around like came out really nice some cool looking trees and some backgrounds fading out at the distance creating atmospheric environmental thingamabob. Okay after that I went ahead and signed into my gum road to look into my favorite artist rent friend is doing a tutorial in the basic fundamentals of drawing and I was watching his third video on creating treasure chests. While practicing, I started working in Photoshop, and I was just freehanding and eyeballing the perspective lines its kind of hard to explain Over podcast it’s kind of easier if I just throw it out and show it to you may be in a time-lapse one day. As I’m recording this thing over this podcast, I’m starting to notice a few things while the Google Doc is recording my text. Sometimes it just stops recording, and I have to go and press it so if you hear a weird pause in the podcast that’s why. Some ready 10 minutes into the podcast and I’m pretty happy with the result. I think that I will have to edit some of the text in this Google Docs, so it looks readable cuz some of the things that it wrote here are not spelled correctly but for the most part it’s great can’t wait to share this with you definitely will leave the pictures in the blog post somewhere in between some of this text as I’m writing it or them talking in the software is writing it If you like this new format just let me know in the comments below trying to be as open as-as positive about it as possible I think this would be great way for me to connect with my audience and answer any of your questions anyway thanks for joining in or if you do listen to the podcast thanks for listening to that as well I have it set up with Google so if you do want to subscribe there should be a way to do it I’m just not sure how once I find out I’ll share that way with you. Take care Transcript

    Last few days I watch artist Trent Keniuga. I was watching his YouTube video of Secrets of Thumbnail Drawing. From watching this video, the technique that grabbed my attention was how quickly he created the landscapes using a few shades of gray. I believe he used ranges between 20% – 80%. After selecting at least three, you can create a believable landscape. The mystery to me was creating the flow and placing objects in such a way where they can make for a pleasant story. Therefore, today on the train I set forth on this journey. My goal was to create a mystery or something. I went on google image search and tried to find something worthy, but I didn’t see much. Working with what I had already started with and limited time, I created the featured image. During the lunch hour, I opened up Photoshop and Google Snapseed to finish off processing the photos. Please let me know in the comments below if you like my mystery and if you have any tips or tricks to come up with ideas for a scene quickly?

    The next day I’m planning on practicing the environment study further. It will probably be on Simmer: How to Show Flow & Promote Scene Passion?

    I’m curious to know… What a mystery ⁉

    I was quickly able to convert my featured image from TIFF to PNG, but I failed to save the Clip Studio image I created. I would like to know how to import a Clip Studio file into Photoshop? When I get home, I’ll post the other picture here, stay tuned!   😍

    Feel free to post your creations in the comments below. Also, my grammar and English isn’t that good either, if you see something odd, please let me know!? If you like what you see, please like, reblog and follow for more inspiration! ¯¯(ツ)
