    Default Kacey's Bookmarks

    I just wanted to do some quick mountain sketching to break the monotony of working on a world coast for the past month so I thought this would be a good opportunity to make something small that doesn't end up in my practice folder never to be seen again. It's not perfect, I could spend the next hour explaining every tiny thing I should change or do better if only I weren't so lazy, but I had fun making it so I hope you'll like it.

    This is lovely, kacey. You've made a fantastic job of it. I'd love to see a coloured version too.

    Thanks guy's! These are the fastest, sloppiest mountains I've ever drawn so I wasn't expecting all these nice comments, this made my day.

    You might just see it one day Eilathen because I took this chunk of coast from a world map I've recently been working on, right now the rest of the map is still just an unfinished black and white land mask and I'm not sure what the final style will be. I was originally planning on doing a satellite style or shaded relief but I may just change my mind I've been having fun the past few days doing these hand drawn mountains.

    I haven't yet managed to get colour onto a map, I've tried and failed many times but just can't seem to get the colour part right which is why I always do monotone maps. I've had better luck with adding colour to water but coloured land shading is not a strong point for me. Maybe this would be a good exercise for my next bookmark, I've almost finished the mountain outlines for the next one so I may just have to make a wip of it so I can get help on the colour part.

    This bookmark idea is great for quickly trying out new styles.
