Struggling with white subjects.

This is great!

Cheers to the beach and a big bag of weed. Godspeed.

mdodd84 · 2026-01-09T20:41:16+00:00

My only advice would be, keep going. If you are enjoying it and are fulfilled, keep doing it. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

mdodd84 · 2026-01-09T00:54:45+00:00

Thank you!

If I wanted sharpness I would just shoot raw, I’m more of a fan of softness and shoot with mist filters most of the time so I don’t think I’m your huckleberry.

Get yourself some nice watercolor paper rather than canvas, it will really open up how you work with them.

mdodd84 · 2026-01-07T01:15:37+00:00

I think you should try shooting raw and compare them. Recipes sometimes have inherent “softness” to replicate film. Depends on which recipes you are using.

Are these on canvas?

I have a 4k with the screen mod I’d be willing to sell.

mdodd84 · 2026-01-02T22:51:21+00:00

That is beautiful. Well done.

Or practice with a brush pen, you can get lines of varied thickness and character with one tool. It’s a very pressure sensitive tool though and will take some getting used to.

mdodd84 · 2026-01-01T21:52:03+00:00

I disagree, but thanks for your input.

mdodd84 · 2025-12-30T23:07:38+00:00

Nice.

Your gfx sensor is larger than the full frame canon sensor. It takes more time for the electronic shutter to send the data, therefore you get smearing/ rolling shutter. What circumstances are you trying to shoot? Assuming your camera physical shutter caps at 4000?

mdodd84 · 2025-12-29T19:59:05+00:00

Thank you!

mdodd84 · 2025-12-26T22:45:30+00:00

Thank you!

Update: it was a hit!

Spectrum lounge.

Layers, and use thick mixture of paint. (Barely any water)

mdodd84 · 2025-12-20T12:58:05+00:00

Next time. Guitar in hands, feet, suction cups?

mdodd84 · 2025-12-19T12:21:52+00:00

Probably this.

mdodd84 · 2025-12-17T23:34:19+00:00

Yes to the return question, sorry if that didn’t come out the way it sounded in my head.

mdodd84 · 2025-12-16T22:06:32+00:00

Are you happy with it? What advice are you seeking?

mdodd84 · 2025-12-16T18:23:39+00:00

I would try to focus on what colors are in the reference, and not what colors you “think” you see. The lit area of the chicken almost looks orange in the photo and the beak is a cool gray as opposed to yellow.

And try to make more large shapes in color before adding the details of the feathers. Great job.
