[Sleepy Time: Continued? More Sleep Required.]

in #art8 years ago


So I uploaded a sketch yesterday after getting my second wind. I've been really tired today, but I got a second wind again and figured I'd ink it.

Afraid I didn't get very far, though. I'm really tired. I think just knowing school is starting again next week is making me wear out faster.
So, until I finish these commissions and my last request, this will be my last upload for a few days. I'm going to get those knocked out, get some rest, and come back to posting regularly.


So, I didn't get this inked, but I did make the sketch larger and cleaner. Figured that since I did at least that much, I may as well go ahead and upload it since I'm going to be away anyway.

I started with the sketch that I did [yesterday.]

I imported it into Manga Studio, but since photos have such a small canvas size, I increased it to 1300x1400 pixels.

I converted it into an Image Material Layer so that I could scale it up without much image distortion.

An editor box appears around the image when I click on the Operation tool. This is the tool that allows me to scale the image. I can even skew it to different angles, but you'll see that in the last picture.

For now, I take the image, making sure the Operation tool is set to "Scale up/down/Rotate" instead of "Free Transform". I press "SHIFT" and grab one of the green corner indicators to scale it up without messing up the pictures original proportions.

I work on cleaning up the sketch, to make it easier to see before inking.

However, this is as far as I got before I was tired again... A nice clean sketch, but no real inks to show for it.


I have been dreadfully tired for the past couple days. I'm getting burnt out, which is something that I would normally just take the afternoon or the morning off and continue as normal, but school is starting back Monday, and I don't want to be wiped out when it starts.

I also want to make sure I can get these commissions done before classes start. I have 3 commissions and 1 Request. I've finished 1 of the commissions and have the second one nearly done and the third inked. The request is pretty close to being done.

If I can keep myself from getting overly tired, I can get them all done before classes start. However, with how tired I've been, I'm starting to worry that one or two of them will still be unfinished before then.

So for that reason, I'm going to be offline until I get them done. If all goes well, I'll be back sometime early next week.

See you then! ....... ノ(  ̄⌓ ̄)ツ。。。zzZ


The extra disappointment comes in when I had especially wanted to post something today to celebrate getting 50 Followers... I'm all oTL;;; and 。.:♬":・'୧(ᗒ▽ᗕ)୨'・:"♬:. 。 at the same time, hahaha~☆ I'll have to do something special when I come back.
