Florian Satzinger: Truism Or Not

It seems that I'm the only one left here who's keeping up posting morale ;-) Anyways, here are some sketchy warm-ups, old and new. Warm-ups always help me getting in my design "zone". Whether a truism or not, it is still true.

Florian Satzinger: Drawing In Photohop

Since I draw mostly digitally, I try to avoid the kind of sterile vibe to it by putting high-res photographs of real paper and pencils on a background layer in Photoshop, at least for the rough process. I even add image noise to the background...

Florian Satzinger: Speed Process Demo

Quite recently, an animation student posted a photo of a quick red ballpen drawing I did for her during an animation festival festival in Florence. Today, I used this very photo for a quick process demo.

Florian Satzinger: Reference Paint Over

I can't often enough point out how important references are. This very visdev speed sketch here illustrates perfectly the idea of using references as an essential component of the design. The reference here BTW is a French single-seat concept car from 1965, the Peugeot 404 Diesel Record.

Florian Satzinger: Feed Your Artwork!

An Indian parrot hatchling is fed by hand on this hilarious photograph. (via)

Which in turn fed my inspiration:

Florian Satzinger: Working with References

Here's a nice example about using references for a new design:

I recorded a new drawing process the other day and thought it would be nice to share it over here, too. Hope you like it...

Here's the complete break down of my "CTN duck":

Florian Satzinger: In Quest Of The Right Shape

I often start with certain reference images and then proceed running around on the piece's form and volume on and on and on... lately, I recorded that initial process of mine:
