Gel Liner: Loreal vs Maybelline




LOREAL:

Thick consistency
Very black
Good for allergies/rubbing eyes
You can take a shower with this on
Little difficult to remove.

I have been using this product for nearly a year but as of lately... it dries out 2x & gets clumpy. Basically feels like glass when it gets in your eyes.
4/5

MAYBELLINE:
Not as thick consistency
Not as dark but it CAN be buildable.
Smears after it dries
Easy to remove.

1.5/5

Both are within the same price range but Loreal = twice the size of the other.

Drawing!


Illustrator!

It's my first time using it.

Initial plan was large frame, curly hair chick with black bebe top hat and white frayed collar shirt. But of course I had messed up layers and had to erase/start over. Went in a completely different direction. I'm just halfway through with lineart.

I fixed the frame in PS and mirrored for a basic idea.


My wrist isn't allowing me to finish atm.





WIP




Funny. It only looks like a few changes once resized. I'm going to do the hair next. Something in mind but I don't know how well it will come out.





Going to raid some forums and see how I can improve the hair shape and edges.

Creating some more actions.

I wish I had a working printer so I could make another collage of ideas!

Right now I am listening to "The Winter". A little haunting when you are in a weird mood.

I need to make more time for reading & finding blogs.

Comparison

D&B and without:






2 votes for without DB.

Opinions?


It really looks overdone. Maybe paint in a smaller brush size.

I closed PS when it was frustrating but went back on later in the night- like two days ago.





Practice.

The other day I was wondering when this was going to happen and surprise... yesterday was it! Cut up some clothes, threw blood on it and I did his makeup ;3

Lots of pretty pin up zombies and scurry gory bloody ones!

I really hate my lens. It's not a real macro and it's poop for normal/outdoor shots. Good for up close. Amigurumi sure. Everything else is either not in focus in bits. Shots are ruined.
