Hi Lemec,
Very nice drawing!

Maybe can you boost bluecolor in your video on youtube cause we do not see all your drawings because of the video compression?

Linework for this one was done in Alias Sketchbook Pro, but coloured in TVPaint...

Nice character design!
I like it!

But why didn't you create the line art with tvpaint? :D

Aïto: Sometimes I use Sketchbook Pro, sometimes ArtRage, really it depends on my mood...

But this one is all TVPaint. I'm goin' for a bit of a watercolour look with this... Although all I had to use was the Penbrush and a little bit of the freehand filled shape.

and I just discovered your Youtube video with the girl reading... Your understanding of perspective is so amazing that if you could animate, you could probably be as good as the ex Disney animator James Baxter.

Fantastic work! Very inspiring, love the Twiggy, it's a classic! :D It seems to me though, that the arm that is touching the steering wheel in the Haute Pursuit illustration is somewhat out of proportion, the lower part seems a bit too long. But other than that it's a masterpiece, and very inspiring in showing off TVPaints more graphical illustration possiblities. Love the contrast between the petite female, and the bulky roadster - simply a kick ass silhouette!

Also nice to see someone using TVPaint with various approaches, love your use of light and shadow, as well as colour range and overall composition.
Great stuff! :D

What do you use to draw with? Cintiq? Wacom tablet?

Jesoped: My work always has mistakes in it. New ones all the time. I work with a Cintiq 18SX and sometimes a Motion Computing M1400 Tablet PC.

I'm working on a video painting tutorial but I have yet to get both satisfactory results and a complete painting in under an hour.

This one took an hour. Facial structure is still my greatest weakness.

i'm wondering how to judge this kind of work.

The only part of this painting that shows a bit of you(the artist), is in the strokes but i guess none of you is in the colors, because you sample them directly from the source image (i think?).
if i squint my eyes, theis paintings looks very much like the original put through a photoshop filter.
