Freebie Friday Question!! << Feedback Wanted
7 years ago
So for those of you who commented on my freebie Friday journal (and there were lots! thank you so much!) I have a question for you all!
What would you like to see? There are a few options.
1. Sketches
These are quick, rough and dirty, some simple lines tossed down to capture an idea, a pose an gesture. Nothing is tided down too much, there is no color.
2. Refined Sketch
Take the rough sketch from above and add my first pass of cleaner lines, these are tighter, more tied down and give you a better idea of what a final picture would look like. There is no color.
3. Inks
Taking the refined sketch above, I go over and actually ink the whole picture adding in my line weights and quality over the whole piece. There are no sketchy lines. This has no color, but it is very close to that step and can have color added to it more easily by other users or artists.
4. Flat Color
Take my inks and add in the basic color of the character underneath the lines. Its flat, no shading, but would encompass all the basic details and specs of the character.
5. Cell Shaded
Once more you take the step above and add on more. This would be best seen in my current pinup collection, where you have full flat colors and simple cell shading along with a few highlights to make the character pop! A splash of color background can be added as well.
NOW
After reading all of that, What would you guys like to see? If I do Sketches I can obviously get to more of you guys and hand out a few extra freebies. If I do inks, it takes more time and thus I can get through less, and full flat color/cell shaded take the longest and would likely end up with only one or two of you getting a freebie in this state.
If I did icons or busts I could do more of flats/cell shaded, if you wanted full body pieces, I could maybe do 1 or 2.
So if you could be as so kind to comment below with what you guys would like to see from me for free, I will do my absolute best to accommodate you all! Thanks so much for the love you guys, have a wicked awesome rest of your day!

With flat/cell shaded.
Seriously though......i think freebie sketches are a good thing cause it'll help people who have an idea in their heads get it on paper to see what it would look like without necessarily paying money for a full on commission. Plus like myself who has characters that are in my head and I want to see what they would look like on paper
Seriously, you've made excellent points, all of you! I have to work out my schedule and get a good system for myself and you all, but I will do my best to at least do one of these every other week or so!
