Today I went to work on the two main elements I would like to have in my FMP, the first one was glitch core. I used a mixture of pencil, water colour and acrylic paint. I like how it turned out, I found that the paint was a mistake as it didn’t turn out as well as I’d expected, however I do like how the rest came out. This was really the first time actually trying with pencil work since school.
With my gore piece I wanted it to be genuine. I like to draw gore form either hoe I’m feeling or what music I’m listening to. This was a very rough sketch and took around 15 minutes to do, a simple pencil piece. I made a lot of alterations for this one was it was full body but I felt it destroyed the whole point of what I was going for. I noted in my book that it was just a whole cluster of things that I want to try.
For my next to do list is to study on how to make gore elements look good and presentable- so, that would have to be on how the organs in the human body are drawn / coloured, how skin tears, how blood falls and the texture, as well as eye gore. There will be a lot of research to do between these two elements, I would love to do two more but digitally to see if anything changes, I will perhaps do the exact same method for both or something different, it really depends.
upon doing the digital piece, I DID infract decide to do the same as the sketchy traditional but with a twist. I took somethings off as it was a little cluttered as well as adding in the blood, i wanted to see how well I could do the blood and I do need more practise for sure.
