23.01.2022 Finished!! Leonardo Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, redrawn digitally with the upcoming recreations of his drawing tools by Real-ink This was the final stage in perf...ecting the prototype tools so now I'd better get started on prepping the Kickstarter campaign. Wish me luck! I'll post some comparison shots and close ups later.
23.01.2022 Thank you all, with your help we’ve just unlocked the next Social Goal: a study of Gaetano Cellini’s marble sculpture ‘L'umanità contro il male’ or 'Humanity Ag...ainst Evil’ created with the Real-ink recreations of Da Vinci’s sanguine and white chalks on 16th Century Red-Washed Italian Paper This masterpiece of expression and human anatomy was one of Cellini's first works, created at the age of 35. Inscribed along the sculptures base is the couplet: "Thus I’ll extirpate using my teeth and nails, the eternal pain that stings my heart"
23.01.2022 So cool! We've now passed the 500% funding mark of the Da Vinci brushes Kickstarter and unlocked the last Stretch Goal - an additional gold brushset of all the ...quill and ink brushes that I think will have some very cool creative applications As we still have over 70 hours to go I'll put together some additional bonus stretch goals for the campaign, possibly including the resources for creating your own DaVinci-style digital notebooks
22.01.2022 It's easy to get lost in the fine details of these lovely parchment textures:
20.01.2022 Only one week left to support the Da Vinci brushes on Kickstarter! With most stretch goals already unlocked it's incredible value ... and I really want to get t...he last stretch goal unlocked because even though gold ink isn't strictly Da Vinci accurate, I think the combination of his lovely feather quills and gold ink would look incredible and have huge creative potential See more
15.01.2022 Slowly getting there with the recreation of DaVinci's Vitruvian Man ...
11.01.2022 Finally finished! These skull studies are the final test of the upcoming Real-ink recreations of Leonardo daVinci's drawing tools for Photoshop and Procreate. ...Now it's almost time for external Beta testing to get feedback from other artists and art history specialists before final tweaks are made for the full public release, which will most likely be done via Kickstarter later this year. This whole journey has taken MUCH longer, and far more work, than I thought it would when I started down this path a few years ago - but I think some things are just worth doing right no matter how long they take.
05.01.2022 Another gorgeous drawing by The Art of Philtomato using the DaVinci tools by Real-ink Digital Brushes If (like me) you're in love with Philip Bawasanta’s elegan...t flowing linework, he has a tutorial on Cubebrush which has great tips on how to achieve flowing gestural linework like this in your own work. I'll post the link in the comments. See more
03.01.2022 Progress on the Vitruvian Man Real-ink recreation I quite like the semi-finished feel at this point
01.01.2022 The Leonardo da Vinci drawing tool recreations are now live on the Real-ink Store!
01.01.2022 What an amazing world we live in, where I can sit in my comfortable studio and work with resources from around the globe that have more detail and clarity than I would get even sitting in the galleries themselves. I never would have imagined this being possible when I first started in art ... the digital age really is magic.
