Stop Motion Drawing 7: Faola the Puppy by Paul Alexander Thornton

[dgreen97]

Hi Paul,

I am quite impressed with your drawing skill!

I'm sure someone has mentioned this before now but, you mentioned that you keep your pencil sketch light so it won't show under your ballpoint.

Have you ever thought of using a permanent thin line (005)Micron or Rapidograph drawing pen over your pencil sketch? You could erase your pencil (kept light) completely with a gum eraser without smearing your final inkwork. The Microns are a couple of bucks, I love them.

Keep up the great work!

Love this drawing, it's absolutely beautiful.Also I was wondering if you'd let me use the song in a video I'll be doing at some point, it has the perfect mood to begin a story I've been drawing out

[SRTD42]

Awesome, until 1:39 still amazing work though

[roseblehh]

Wow, so good. I love how you do your drawings in pen. when I do that i end up smudging or messing it up

[Ptofux3]

[LBPMarioDog123]

[joe49997]

Words cannot express how amazing you are at drawing. For heavens sake you used only a pen to draw the dog's face!!!

[AAAAAAACCCCCCCEEEEE]

you can thank the user RonHalfon for disliking this vid. He seemed a bit butthurt after getting schooled by the uploader so he decided to dislike the vid to get some sort of self gratification. LOL what a douche!

[ikie12343]

so hard to believe someone can draw like that.

[nycdre]

BRILLIANT!



[RonHalfon]

It's nice but you don't hold you'r pencil right....

[PaulAlexThornton]

@RonHalfon it's a pen

[RonHalfon]

@PaulAlexThornton so what???

[PaulAlexThornton]

@RonHalfon There's no right or wrong way to hold a pencil or a pen. What matters is results, whether or not a drawing is good, bad, nice or crappy is purely subjective, what is not subjective however is the fact that this video is a pen drawing and not a pencil drawing. That's what.

[boomqwer]

@PaulAlexThornton so what ?! No I'm just messin' with you man :)

Great vid !

[Donielism]

@RonHalfon omg u fucking noob... should you go and complain about that to the japanese when they play ping pong to? its not how you wield it, its how you use it!

[RonHalfon]

@Donielism Know what he built bitch? You die, your mother suck to egro

[tarantulaguy1993]

@RonHalfon lol, trolling. . . you dont use it right. . .

[VoidFoxy]

@RonHalfon The way an artist holds their utensil is purely based on preference. There's no right or wrong way, it just depends on how the artist feels comfortable holding it.

[EstebanCRC]

wow!

[DoubleGee77]

i gotta say this is pretty awesome! :)

Good work. My name is Justin and im from ohio. I really like your art. I'm about to get a sleeve tattoo done and I was wondering could u draw me basically a collage of ohio. From the rock and roll hall of fame, to a really mean brutus the buckeye, ohio stadium, the cleveland browns/indians, etc. Whatever else u think of. I'll pay u for the pic, just hit me back and let me know if u can do it and how much the price is. Thanks..

[YourADrag]

very impressive!

that was a really cool idea to use the paisleys as the body.

[CR055H41RZ]

the dogs head is a bit awkwardly placed but other then that its an A+

[asmodeux18]

Fantastic composition. I love the fact that everything is drawn freehand. Incredible detailing and command of both mediums. Nice change of pace from the skulls and flowers as well. Keep up the great work.

[MerryAnimationShow]

Do you do a sketch first and then draw, or just go for it?

[CR055H41RZ]

@MerryAnimationShow probably he treis over and over till he gets it

[PaulAlexThornton]

@MerryAnimationShow Hi, no I don't actually do a sketch but i do a really light outline in pencil, I keep it as basic as I can because the pencil marks show through from underneath the ink and it looks bad it's also hard to rub out the lines once they are underneath the ink without smudging and ruining the drawing. If I'm making a drawing that is not in a film then often i wont outline it at all but the only problem is the risk of getting proportions wrong after the filming is just too much!

[MerryAnimationShow]

@PaulAlexThornton That's pretty amazing. I hope to be as good as you one day :3

[Matthewac1]

That is just amazing!

[801Muse]

skulls, flowers and now puppies. sick man

[rramosbaez]

I love how you drew something other than a flower or a skull.. You're a great artist!

[plantshit]

I love every single one of your videos and I'm a huge fan. Please draw more.
