Dragon Claw
Well,
here it is, the largest drawing project that I have ever completed. I used
ShadowPlay to record both the video and audio.

Band: PhuturePrimitive
Song: The Changeling

Initially, I had
twenty-one hours of video but, cutting the extra stuff out (tabbing to
different screens, messaging friends, etcetera), I ended up with thirteen hours
of – mainly – actual drawing time. This suggests that I may have an ADD problem.
But hey, I completed it, which is all I care about.
Adobe Premiere – which came bundled from my college with PhotoShop – is the program I used to actually edit the video. And because I don’t know jack about using Premiere, a friend of mine taught me the ropes. He’s awesome at the whole video editing deal, so if you need a guy, here’s his website: http://www.drudgemm.com/.
I did use a reference for the drawing to get started with the general shape and shadowing of the claw. It’s actually book titled, ‘Drawing Dragons’ and was written/illustrated by Sandra Staple. If you want to check that out, here’s a link:

Here's the finished drawing:

this taught me quite a bit about shading, not only digitally, but in general.
It was a great project, and if you, as well, are a budding artist, I suggest
attempting to tackle a project that seems way over your head. Of course, this
applies to many other skills as well.
And with that, I'm signing off. I'll likely be posting some much smaller projects soon, before I tackle another thirteen-hour-long draw fest.
