I’ve seen quite a lot of work by artists who use free software, and Sven’s shading is very, very good. Sure thing, nothing cool to do in such a park so that one has to think of other ways to pass some time, eh? :D” I scribbled the sketch for this piece (as well as some others) some time last summer while I was in an amusement park. It’s some dude with an automatic shooter. These two different media and styles probably influence each other, but to be honest, I couldn’t tell what exactly that impact would be. The basic style, the way I draw things, people, faces, weapons, whatever… should still be discernible in my digital pics (which aren’t so much drawn, since I’m only using a mouse to click things together). Still I think (or rather hope!) that with all the differences in look & feel, people who know my stuff can still tell it’s all coming from the same guy. For me these are two entirely different methods of working and I love how things look different in traditional and digital media. I don’t try to mimic my pencil style in Inkscape or vice versa. Right from the start I’ve always seen my vector and pencil stuff as two separate things. Now, if doing vector graphics has had an impact? Hmm, that’s hard to tell. It’s where I came from and I still love pencilling. Sven started using Inkscape only around 2011. The little redheaded dude is obviously in a slightly aggressive mood and shows his impressively smooth dual-arm-moves… Better be careful now, if you want to avoid fractures and injuries of the kneecaps and below :D”īeing a self-taught illustrator, he started with natural media: paper, pencil etc. “Today I can finally post some new completed image material. Sven Ebert aka “Dillerkind” is one of the i-can’t-believe-i-missed-that artists using Inkscape. Curious what interesting new artwork people did with Inkscape lately? We have another showroom for you today, with badasses, golems, pandas, and red riding hoods.
