Tasty outside food

Update no. 10: Sharing my drawings

code10 — Tue, 21 Jun 2022 15:05:21 +0800

Hi All,

I just thought of sharing tank drawings I’ve made previously. They are done in freehand. I think doing freehand drawings develop confidence.
I’m showing the process of which how the drawing is made, from the beginning to the end, using attached photos as references.

The entire drawing wasn’t that difficult, if you apply the simple techniques/steps. Just give it some time and have some patience when drawing.

The stationary that I’m using are pretty basic and affordable. All easily available at local stationary shop. You don’t need hi-tech electronic tablet/high-end computer to start drawing. As least, this is true for my case.

Anyway, the items I'm using:

1. Felt tip pens (0.2mm and 0.4mm nib) black. Artline brand.
2. Mechanical pencil 0.5mm. 2B lead.
3. A3 size multi-purpose paper. I preferred this size as it give me more room to expand when drawing my subject.

Drawing process

Drawing a "skeletal" of the subject. Which is a tank, in this case. Pencil lines can be easily corrected if mistakes are made. When drawing your lines, keep your hand steady, do it slowly if you need to. Control your lines.

Outline the pencil lines with felt tip pen. Use 0.4mm pen for outline (profile), while 0.2mm for object lines. This makes the drawing clearer, and indicate what is at the front, middle and at the back.

Use the felt tip pen to hatch/darken the areas under shade or shadow, like wheel, tracks, hull, and other area below the tank.

Additionally, use a mechanical pencil to continue hatching/darken the areas under shade or shadow. Pencil lines aren't as heavy as ink lines.

Continue adding gradual layers of pencil lines and pen lines. This is to create more visual depth and 3D to the tank drawing. Tank details such as nuts, handles, hinges, brackets, lamps, etc. are highlighted.

Use pencil lines to "scratch" your drawing to create markings/graphics, impression of dirt, weathering, wear & tear marking, etc. to the tank.
A felt tip pen can be used to create similar but deeper impression. Use it sparingly though.

Adding final touch to the drawing, by giving it a human figure, antenna, ground line, etc. This gives an impression of scale and a bit of realism to the drawing.

This thread is done on the fly. and if I have missed out a few things by accident, please let me know. My drawings aren't perfect and I'm still learning to draw by doing it. Practice doesn't always make perfect, but I think it makes improvement.

Lastly, I’ll provide a link of a Y/T video of how the entire drawing is made, for those who are keen to know more about the drawing.

If you have any comments/questions……please don't hesitate to highlight or ask. I'll answer them the best I can.

Cheers!

Hello Da-ge/Da-jie/Abe-abe/Kakak-kakak yang dihormati,

Could you provide comment to my YT video of tank drawing, how I can improve it, or make it more interesting for you viewing.
FYI, the tank is very old-skool and surely not sleek and handsome like today's version.

Please comment my Huey helicopter drawing

code10 — Sat, 21 May 2022 19:33:51 +0800

Drawing my fav UH-1 (“U” stands for Utility) helicopter.

The army called it “Huey” due to mistaken code (reversed from UH to HU). This helicopter starred in numerous action movies like Predator, The A-Team (remake), Rambo II, and many more.

In the drawing, I give drama abit by adding two miniguns & some armour at the engine area.

Please comment what you think of the drawing.

Thank you and selamat menonton

Come give me your comments to my helicopter drawing video.

Since ayam old-old and unfamiliar with hi-tech stuff, ayam had to recruit youngling to help record, edit & post y/t video of my drawing.
Hopefully, ayam will learn bit by bit and becoming pannai later.

Selamat menonton.

This is true setori from my frens teaching at private and public universities.

When a uni student gets good result, gets scholarship, father-mother says "anak saya pannai, rajin, etc"
When a uni student gets lousy result, father-mother says "lecturer donno how to teach, tak guna, etc"

Keeping pet(s) is good deed

code10 — Sat, 19 Mar 2022 18:13:37 +0800

My boss kept many pets at home. He has 12 cat and some fishes, and soon will be keeping some ayam hutan.
He believe rearing them, jaga and give them food is doing good deed. So long, you don't eat, sell them for money or cause them harm.

What are point of view from Malay, Chinese and Indian folks here?

Why call "boss" at makan places

code10 — Wed, 09 Mar 2022 11:47:37 +0800

In Mesia at mamak shop, restaurants, roadside stalls, etc. customers are frequently called as "boss".
However, in western countries like US or UK.....we don't hear customers being called boss, but "sir"

Izit becoz we Mesian feel more syiok, or would spend more on food upon hearing "boss"?.
