I appreciate you believing in me enough to think I might be able to pull off art nouveau. Let me push it around in my brain a bit and see what I can come up with. Adding it to the list!
My thought was the blocky connector was on the other side and out of site, but you’re right.
I use Clip Studio Paint on a Microsoft Surface. I do work in layers. In this one, I just had one layer for the line art then one layer for each of the two tones which are just black set at 40% and 60% opacity.
No real boundaries or guidelines. I like taking requests because I like making connections with people and it gives me a chance to draw something I otherwise might not have drawn on my own. The only real guideline I have is to be concise. I’m going to gravitate towards the suggestions that I think I can put a fun spin on, so if there’s a ton of detail in the request, it might land low on my list of priorities.
As far as time goes, I’ll usually put in as much time as I think the things needs, although something like drawing a map of the world from memory in 20 mins would be fun, so I’m open to that as well.
So if you have any suggestions, I’d love to see them!
Man, I’m such a horror guy at art, I’d love to draw more scary stuff but my style is so cartoony and cutesy that every attempt results in an abject failure.
Thanks, man! I’ll add it to the list for sure! :)
