i understood every word dood, let me paraphrase
-I suck at color, please help will pay
-design looks like horsebites
-im a twat
right?
jfinley said 8 months ago
Sure Ill agree that it looks a bit like Horsebites, hes a big inspiration and I like the way he draws/colors. Although I kept thinking in my head the whole time "do not make this look like horsebites" but sure enough my hands couldnt stop drawing and I couldnt help it. We have similiar styles - which explains why were doing a collaborative shirt.
drewB said 8 months ago
did you retrace this in illustrator, or is this just the inked drawing colored?
turquoisebluebird said 8 months ago
I love the colors
The worm with teeth reminds me of the graboids in the movie, Tremors.

I originally sketched a very rough idea on paper first which I then scanned and put into Photoshop. I made my document huge like 25" x 30" or something. And then started drawing on top with my Wacom tablet. Then I got crazy with the details which were obviously not in the sketch.
drewB said 8 months ago
I figured this was done with a wacom in Illustrator! I wish my brushes werent so messed up and shaky in Photoshop, otherwise Id trace my sketches in it. You could do this with pressure sensitivity and calligraphy brushes in Illustrator?
justinryan said 8 months ago
so rad. was wondering when you would be posting this. lemme know when its printed
jfinley said 8 months ago
Drew,yeah you could do it in Illustrator too. But I have gotten used to the PS handles the pressure sensitivity. I just use a round hard brush, so its nothing complicated.
heavyprints said 8 months ago
Yes! I cant use Illustrator because I cant get it to vary my line width the way I want it to. Also, turning the pen over and using the eraser is the greatest.
I just zoom in to combat the shakyness, and to an extent I like for the lines to waver some in most cases.
drewB said 8 months ago
Yeah, I know what you mean. I like the shape of the brushes with pressure sensitivity in Photoshop, but I have a Cintiq, and it has issues with the line quality in Photoshop. I have no idea why, and Wacom couldnt figure it out when I contacted them. I just stick to Illustrator...so I was wondering if you could replicate this in Illustrator. Thanks Jeff!
drewB said 8 months ago
Yeah, its really extreme. I know what you mean though. Plus, I have issues figuring out the pressure sensitivity in Photoshop. I want a quick tutorial on the best brush settings/pressure sensitivity for Illustrator and Photoshop.
I turn the fidelty and smoothing of the brush all the way down so it pretty much draws the line as I do.
I ask Jeff because hes the master, and his lines are really sketched looking and it keeps that handrawn look. I know he uses both photoshop and illustrator with the wacom, so I just want to know what brushes/pressure sensitivity settings to use in both ahah.
jfinley said 8 months ago
In PS its just a hard round brush with pressure on. I dont really mess with the settings. And I dont know my illustrator settings, I change them often to see what works best.
drewB said 8 months ago
I just create my own new calligraphy brush with pressure on for the size. I just use different sizes depending. Then I adjust the brush settings to fidelity 4 and the smoothness at -0. That works best for me. The lines are smooth but you can make them rough enough to keep a sketched look. I guess you just stick with what works best.
