Ryan's sketches

[ryansumo]

Hi guys just started toying with Alchemy yesterday and i find it both frustrating/rewarding. Frustrating because I feel like I'm flying blind most of the time but rewarding because well, it helps me think more out of the box than I usually do. I do wish there were more structured tutorials about how the tools work for people less...creative like me. Anyway here's the first image I made that I was really satisfied with:


Which became:

Another quick sketch. Still love/hate. A part of me i loving the freedom I'm getting with these concepts. It forces me to not focus on polish at too early a stage. But at the same time I'm also wondering if I'm still trying to direct the flow of the drawing too much, and that I'm missing the point of alchemy entirely.

Ok so maybe there's something to alchemy after all. I can't stop refining this sketch. This is done more in photoshop though. I'll try to put up more alchemy generated material in the future.
