[Notice] PENUP update Ver 2.8.0
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You can check the current version of PENUP by going into About PENUP in the PENUP setup menu. The first news I would like to introduce is 'View original coloring design' function.
Tumblr media
You may be curious about the original coloring design when you look at coloring artworks. Now, when scrolling down a little bit, you can see that original coloring design on a detail page.
Tumblr media
Secondly, PENUP has changed the number of re-post on challenge artwork.
Tumblr media
As you know, PENUP holds ‘Challenge’ contests 2 times a month. There are many amazing and interesting artworks. After PENUP update 2.8.0, You are only able to repost one artwork at once. I understand you would like to repost many artworks, however, please remember that you should re-post only one artwork. The third news I would like to introduce is that the design of PENUP has been partially changed. The menu at the top has been changed to a more visible icon and the banner image is now more clearly visible.
Tumblr media
The forth news is you can have an experience Zoom in/Out function while connecting Samsung DeX station. Finally, PENUP has several notifications. We've fixed the ability to not receive notifications for comments left by other users, so we do not want to receive those notifications any longer. That’s all, we have introduced the new function of PENUP. Please update to PENUP 2.8.0 and check out the new PENUP. Only a few days left in 2017 It seems that we feel sad about ending this year and also excited of a new year comes. Wish you a lot of love and wishes. Thank you for your attention. We are all always grateful to you. Merry Christmas Happy 2018

[Interview] HOF December 2017 @TreeStory
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Q1. @PENUP : Hello, Artist @TreeStory. You were selected as 2017’s last HOF artist. How do you feel? A1. @TreeStory : Hello. First off, I would like to thank you. I first started off only as a little hobby… ^^ I feel I can conclude year 2017 through this happy event and it will remain in my memory.
Tumblr media
Q2. @PENUP : Please can you introduce yourself to users from around the world? A2. @TreeStory : I don’t have much to introduce… I’m just a middle-aged man living in Korea. I am already at this age. It might be an age that is not suited with these drawings : ) I think you can just think of me as a man who scribbles for a hobby.
Tumblr media
Q3. @PENUP : Going on to your feed, there were around 460 uploads. You began in October 2013, and have continuously exhibited pieces of art until now. We can see your beginning in 2013 with PENUP. How did you come to know about PENUP? A3. @TreeStory : I came to know about PENUP when I got a smartphone. I suppose I began with pressing the PENUP app that was installed in my Samsung smartphone. It was interesting at first. As I got more and more used to using my smartphone, I started to upload pictures little by little.
Tumblr media
Q4. @PENUP : Now, let’s talk about your drawings. As mentioned in the beginning, when we look at your pictures, it’s almost like reading a diary. Perhaps it’s because it contains small daily happenings. Where do you usually get your material for drawing? A4. @TreeStory : It’s not quite like a diary, but I think I experience a lot of things daily. ^^ Through walking down the street, driving somewhere, reading a book, watching a movie… and so on. I try to scribble each one down. In between there are my own personal experiences, but I tend to draw thoughts that come up from reading a book or watching a book.
Tumblr media
Q5. @PENUP : In your drawings, there are often some Korean text included. It made us think you were a Korean whose mother tongue was Korean. There is a harmony of Korean characteristic designs and beauty in your drawing. And it gains empathy, even though the meaning may not be understood by the world. Is there a reason you enjoy adding Text to your works? And if there is anything special about Korean, what is it? A5. @TreeStory : There is the reason that I am not good at other languages! ^^ First I need to write in a language where I can freely express myself, that even if it’s not clear, it can be properly communicated. And to do so, it is best for me to write in Korean. Also, usually before I draw, I tend to write first and think. Probably in nearly all my pictures there is some writing included. Only in this way I can make up for the lack of communication and make it a little bit clearer.
Tumblr media
Q6. @PENUP : There is a particular boy main character in many of your drawings. It seems like an emotionally reactive and detailed character. This excellent character’s emotional episodes lets viewers also fall into and feel these emotions. Is this character perhaps an expression of yourself? What is this character’s personality or characteristic? A6. @TreeStory : There are many people around me who remark on our similarity but it is not so. Because I am a guy, I usually think from a guy’s point of view and express it that way. I majored in design. So, I drew the characters I had usually scribbled about, again on my smartphone. When you need a subject to be immersed in a story, nothing works best as a character. ^^ The characters are all a little similar and different. I don’t think they have one such personality. Should we just say at that moment, for that picture, they are the ones that do the explaining for me?
Tumblr media
Q7. @PENUP : After uploading your pictures, you also add a sentimental explanation. For example, in your, 'rainbow… you hart' drawing, you wrote: “Let’s be happy. The start of your hand… it creates a rainbow in my heart…" And also, 'a heart is like a net that is not easily untangled', you wrote: “However much I try to untangling, it only gets more tangled up, I can’t retrieve the fish caught inside, Is it because I can’t let it go free?” In this way, you communicate with other users through writing and drawings. What does it mean to you, to share your emotions through SNS? A7. @TreeStory : As I have mentioned before, most of my work is from imagining my writing into images. Expressing myself in this way might be a lingering attachment to my dream. It is not anymore, but being an illustrator used to be my dream. ^^
Tumblr media
Q8. @PENUP : Looking at your tags, we can’t help but notice Galaxy Note. You used to work with Galaxy Note 4, 5 and pro12.2, and recently it seems you are working with Galaxy Note 7. Among the devices you have used, which is your favorite? Also, which drawing apps have you used before? A8. @TreeStory : Yes, I used Galaxy Note Pro 12.2, Note 3, 4, 5, and now I’m using Note 7FE. I have worked on PC using pen and mouse before, and so I adjusted quickly to smartphone pen. I think the most comfortable device is still the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2. It’s great because it’s so wide. ^^ Also until recently, I have used the Autodesk SketchBook drawing app. It’s quite good, and also if you have the Note series, you could access the pro version. I wanted to continue with the Autodesk SketchBook, but the UI has changed too much, making it difficult. So right now, I’m searching for another drawing app.^^
Tumblr media
Q9. @PENUP : Whether it’s because of the sentimental writing, you have a lot of empathetic comments. I think you always reply to other users’ comments… Do you have any comments that you especially remember? A9. @TreeStory : Many people show their interest through their comments. I am thankful, for their appreciation. The comment I remember the most, is in the beginning stages of PENUP, there is a drawing with “Sora’s story” written on it. As I still do now, when I had written something in Korea, there were many people who were curious. Someone translated it all into English in the comments, and encouraged me the most. I think I remember that person the most. Because that user is no longer on PENUP, I can’t show my appreciation…
Tumblr media
Q10. @PENUP : You were with us ever since PENUP’s beginning. So we are very curious, while you were using PENUP, are there any improvements you would like to see? A10. @TreeStory : PUENUP’s history also marks my story. I’m sure you all know about PENU’s UI(User Interface) even without my mentioning it. If there are any improvements that I want to see, it would be for a smoother way of communication among the users. PENUP is used by people all over the world. However, there are people like me who find difficulty in language. If this difficulty is improved, I feel that this will be an even better space for sharing. ^^ Hope your days are always filled with happiness.
2017 last HOF interview has ended with Artist @TreeStory. It is December. The end can be the finish, and it can also be the moment for a new beginning. Looking back on this year, how about reflecting on the happy memories, and as for regrets, setting up plans for a fresh start in 2018? We hope that that in 2018, everyone of you can build special memories in PENUP. Our management team will always try our best :) Happy New Year everyone~!

[Challenge] 2017. December : Let's draw Food as a character
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kawaii Cupcake / @pinktrilobite naughty waffle. / @EmmaSilva When you go to a bakery, you can see bread and cakes in the shapes of various characters: teddy bears, robots, and so on! There are food characters you can see on special days. For example, a Jack O Lantern during Halloween, Or a Ginger Cookie man in Christmas.
Tumblr media
Hot Bread / @feltboy Cherries / @Sugarfreak We think of interesting scenes when we see food characters. Food that was displayed safely in a store, when they become ingredients for cooking, is a choice of happiness? Or perhaps pain? Grapes, cherries, or bananas, they must be tired from moving around together! For ice-cream, summer is heaven, and winter is hell.
Tumblr media
hungry donut / @dRema hambuger power / @monggle We are curious what kinds of food characters will be created. This challenge will be held from 16th of December(Sat) to the 31st of December(Sun). Please join in and participate, and we look forward to seeing wonderful works of art. Thank you. :)

[Review] Challenge of November(1)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sixteen / @Chuppylim January piece goes to @Chuppylim. The artist drew a face of an animal with delicacy and details. It also seems like a facet of an animal in a myth. When you look closely, you can capture other animals like an owl and a bird. You can feel the strong energy from the eyes that stare at you. Don’t you think it seems like a king?
Tumblr media
가젤-컬러링 / @hosio @hosio’s art piece took on February. The artist drew a gazelle that looks like a human. Is it a moon at the back? There is usually only 28 days in February, but February 2020 has 29 days. That means that the year will be comprised of 366 days, not 365 days. The peculiar atmosphere in the piece seems to go well with this special February.
Tumblr media
Puppies and photo / @Lentz.bc.Gim The art piece by @Lentz.bc.Gim took on for March. Puppies are surrounding the table. Are they waiting to have the meat cooked? Their patron had captured this scene – which is too cute to miss out. The piece indeed has loveliness and warmth that makes you forget about the belated cold weather.
Tumblr media
tree / @feltboy April goes for @feltboy. There are all animals in the tree. The tree itself, the birds in the nest and the flowers are all smiling. Are they perhaps ready to greet the warm breeze and sunlight after the scorching winter? The piece really does capture the scene of April where the sprouts begin to bloom.
Tumblr media
Garden / @DraceyDrew @DraceyDrew’s artwork goes into May. This is a sketch that perfectly resembles perfect spring. Blooming flowers that signal the arrival of spring: it is assumed that bees will be flying to the flowers from somewhere out there.
Tumblr media
Setiembre-(orignlartbyunknown) / @Choloaldon June is taken by @Choloaldon. It conveys houses and stores that are all packed and gathered together. With the Eiffel Tower at the back, it seems to be some place in Paris. You can also see Sacred Heart Cathedral on Montmartre. June is a month when people go on traveling. Why don’t you do some sketches on a bench while you go on traveling?
Tumblr media
Coloring pages / @littleArtist July goes for @littleArtist who drew a profile of a beautiful woman. Looking at all the ornaments on the hair, she seems to be a bride of July. Something is scattered around her. Are they flower buds of celebration?
Tumblr media
Don't forget what imagine is. / @TumMeng_Inthira August goes for @TumMeng_Inthira’s artwork. So many planets and stars greet the boy as he opens the window. Perhaps he lives somewhere out in the space. Living in a world of full imaginations, there are no limits outside the boy’s window.
Tumblr media
flower bunch / @artisticginger @artisticginger takes September piece. When you look at the coloring scheme, you can see many patterns aside from mandala. The repeated patterns are sometimes geometrical and sometimes nature-embedded. The artist drew flower patterns. The repeated leaves occur to the fallen leaves of September.
Tumblr media
coloring page(castle) / @monggle October goes for @monggle. Is it some kind of castle through the lens of a bat? On a tree on top of the castle, there are Halloween pumpkins dangling. The bats are flying around the tree. Just makes one wonder how 2018 Halloween would look like.
Tumblr media
Getting Ready! / @Grafixguru November is filled with @Grafixguru’s art piece. There is Santa Clause putting on his boots with Rudolph waiting for him with Santa’s hat in his mouth. This is a sketch of Santa and Rudolph in early preparations of Christmas coming next month. Is Santa hurrying himself as a lot of people are waiting for him so badly?
Tumblr media
Merry-Xmas / @rubyspixart December goes for @rubyspixart’s piece. This is the last month of 2018! There is a Christmas tree that probably had been prepared by a family upon Christmas. There are so many gifts at the bottom. There should be a baby who has just started learning alphabets as there is ABC cube. Like the gifts underneath the tree, we hope that everyone will have many happy and enjoyable moments in the new year. These are our 12 winners of the challenge. Congratulations! @Chuppylim @hosio @Lentz.bc.Gim @feltboy @DraceyDrew @littleArtist @monggle @TumMeng_Inthira @Grafixguru @rubyspixart @artisticginger @Choloaldon We will give 2018 Coloring Calendar and color pencil set to those 12 winners. We hope you a Happy New Year, and we look forward to your attention to our calendar event that is coming very soon. Thank you. For our winners, please send the following information to our PENUP team.

[HOF] December 2017 @TreeStory
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Our last HOF of 2017 is someone who writes the map of the heart. With the essay-like emotions, the artist observes the day and puts it in emotional story along with warm style drawing. It is @TreeStory. When looking at the artist’s drawing, you come to feel that every minute thing in daily life has something special in it.
Tumblr media
You can easily see the drawings that embrace text in Hangul (Korean characters). Because it seems like an essay that puts out the moments of the day, the art brings out sympathy for all overcoming the barrier in language. Please join me in congratulating @TreeStory, our HOF of December. One says that happiness shared will be doubled. Please visit the artist’s feed to leave messages of congratulations. : )

[Challenge] 2017. December : Let's draw christmas
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the cold lights / @ucru A country Christmas / @Envyous In the Christmas season, we can see a huge tree set up at a park or a square. At home, all the family members gather to set up a tree and carefully select decorations, preparing for the coming Christmas holiday. The lightings on a tree makes the entire vibe of a house a lot warmer.
Tumblr media
Dear Santa / @Grafixguru Santa Claus is coming / @Abex At Christmas, children look forward to meeting Santa Claus on the Rudolph sleigh. Rovaniemi in Finland is known as Santa Claus Village. If you send a letter to a post office in this village, you will be able to get a reply from Santa Claus. Every year, more than 500,000 letters arrive to this village. This year, Santa Claus must have been very busy reading letters sent from children around the world.
Tumblr media
Christmas Eve / @silver77 santa penguin / @icegido The tremor of excitement in waiting for Christmas to come makes us really happy. We wish all PENUP people have a happy Christmas. This challenge will last from December 1 (Friday) to December 15 (Friday). We look forward to your interest and participation, as well as your amazing artworks! Thank you!

[SketchBook] Draw a mystical forest
Tumblr media Tumblr media
TUTORIAL by @aristina.z Draw a mystical forest with SketchBook Hi all this is @aristina.z and it feels so good to be back to present another set of drawing tips! First I really want to thank you All for the wonderful response to my previous drawing tips (saw so many beautiful galaxies popping up!). Everyone on PENUP is a creative artist in their own right and when most of you wonderful Pen.ple took some time to appreciate, read or try out some tips given by a fellow artist it meant alot to me! Let’s get started without further delay!
Tumblr media
Step 1: Whoever follows my drawing tips knows the first step is choosing a colour. So as autumn fades into winter and we all miss summer lets choose green! Jade green... emerald...moss... Brings to mind greenery and enchanted forests. So let’s draw a mystical forest! Tip alert: Whenever drawing forests try to use more shades of sap green or jade green instead of using very bright green shades for the backdrop.
Tumblr media
Step 2: Let’s use our search engine to see images and photographs of beautiful forests or better still close your eyes and imagine yourself taking a walk in the woods! Tip alert: I almost always read a little about the colour I am going to use most in the drawing(in this case green)Believe me it helps! Green stands for life, renewal, harmony and positive energy.
Tumblr media
Step 3: Use the paint brush feature on sketchbook to pen some shades of jade green with lighter shades in the centre and darker towards the edges. Smudge them using short strokes without mixing them. Tip alert: Before we start the next step a quick tip ,as we are making a forest its good to practice making trees beforehand with-tree trunk thick-branches long and slender-twigs thin and short.
Tumblr media
Step 4: Add layer no.2 (this will be our layer number 4 in the final artwork )and using the acrylic paint brush start drawing the trees in the foreground framing the picture. Tip alert: It is important to keep in mind the near and far concept. Trees in front/nearer/in the foreground will be more saturated in colour/more opaque and the ones far/in the background will have less pigment /less opaque.
Tumblr media
Step 5: Add another layer but this layer will come between the two previous layers (this will be our layer number 3 in the final artwork)The trees will be drawn in this layer using the same acrylic paint brush feature and a lighter shade of jade green, and then we will reduce the opacity of this layer (I made it 57%)to make them look far and add depth to the artwork. Tip alert: The beauty of digital drawing is you can use different layers and change the opacity of the layers to add depth and definition to your artwork.
Tumblr media
Step 6: Duplicate the previous layer that is layer number 3 and you can place it before or after layer no.3.Now use the “transform image “icon to reduce the size of the trees in this layer and then change the opacity of the layer to lesser than the previous ones (I made it 27%)as the trees in this layer are made to appear farthest. Tip alert: The best part is you don’t have to draw this layer at all!!!..just duplicate previous layer-transform image(to reduce size)-change opacity (to appear far)
Tumblr media
Step 7: Draw a light source in this case a moon in our layer number 4 (the layer with maximum opacity )Shade it using the air brush option. Tip alert: As we are drawing and duplicating the trees its important to use the smudge brushes from time to time to give a smooth finish and continuity to the trees, its branches and roots.
Tumblr media
Step 8: Draw a figure(a girl or even a deer )in the midst of the forest using the pen and then smudge brush. Tip alert: Figures and their posture need attention to detail so once I decide the figure I want I almost always practice it twice or more to get the flow before drawing it in my final artwork.
Tumblr media
Step 9: Now we will add our final layer that is layer number 5 and use it to draw the light effects. The halo around the moon using the airbrush in shades of lime and light green. Give some texture to the trees using the pencil and smudge options. The highlights on the girl and the ground as well as the shadow of the girl on the ground. Tip alert: The direction of light as well as the way it illuminates the things in its path is important to note. Also light of different intensities bounces off different objects.
Tumblr media
Step 10: Now we add some finishing touches to our artwork...draw some foliage (optional )and upload it on PENUP. (essential)!!! Tip alert: It is definitely much easier to actually draw the artwork than to read about it or write about it. So please start drawing and uploading. Can’t wait to see your beautiful artworks!!! Hope you all have a great time doing digital painting ...until we meet again with a next set of drawing tips ...thank you! The secrets to creating a beautiful and mysterious forest are the colors and perspective. Moreover, controlling transparency based on perspective is very important. As colors hold the key of making the entire vibe of an artwork,carefully selecting colors that are fitting to the atmosphere of the picture you want to draw is critical. Our artist @aristina.z not only has amazing drawing skills but also is a good communicator. We could feel the joy and happiness of drawing a picture while reading the drawing tips from @aristina.z. Unfortunately, however, the drawing tip series from @aristina.z is now ended. But we really hope that we could have another opportunity to get more of precious drawing tips from @aristina.z in the near future.

[Review] Challenge of October(2)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Doggy and Travel bag / @Pato.Cha my pink bag / @AnKa The owner seems to be leaving on a trip. Doesn’t the dog seem to be saying “Please take me”? This is @Pato.Cha’s piece. There are a sketchbook and brush in the bag. A palette is also on the field. It seems like someone is taking the landscape of the forest into the drawing. Is it the poisonous mushroom in the drawing? This is done by @AnKa.
Tumblr media
Firefly bag. / @Evendim Bag of Tricks / @dollshouse These two pieces show something extraordinary in the bag. A firefly is coming out of the opened bag. The bright light that shines the darkness is quite romantic. This was by @Evendim. You can see the ears of a rabbit outside the bag. Is it supposed to be a bag of a magician? @dollshouse drew a drawing where a real rabbit is going to jump out from the empty bag.
Tumblr media
what's inside my bag? / @hoso In my bag / @poonam.bansal It is so interesting to investigate to whom these bags belong to with these fun items. The first drawing seems to be a bag of a student with the diary, student card and writing instruments. Was there a forecast that it would rain? A red umbrella is in it too. The folding fan in the bag shows it is summer. This belongs to @hoso. You can see writing utensils and notepads, as well as makeups like lipsticks and eyeliners. With two types of sunglasses and a cleanser, you can see that this bag belongs to a girl who cares about the appearance. This is by @poonam.bansal.
Tumblr media
My purse stuff... / @Beckah my bag of gold / @Vaani You can see a car key that looks like traffic lights and a diary. It seems to be a bag of an office worker who came back from work after meetings. This is by @Beckah. Much gold is pouring out of the bag. A lot of people should be eyeing the bag. @Vaani has given us a drawing full of shiny gold.
Tumblr media
Coffee in the bag / @Ilo untitled / @bradley This is by @Ilo. Is it a bag of a barista? Or a bag of someone who loves coffee? The bag seems to be full of coffee fragrance with the grinder, port and coffee cup. This is done by @bradley. It could be mom’s grocery bag or a chef’s bag. It even has fresh fruits and flowers. The water is being boiled; is tomato pasta on the way? Wonder what kind of dish would get to the table. Below are our 10 winners. Congratulations! @Pato.Cha @AnKa @Evendim @dollshouse @hoso @poonam.bansal @Beckah @Vaani @Ilo @bradley

[SketchBook] Draw a Character in the windy day
Tumblr media Tumblr media
TUTORIAL by @Gavriel Draw a Character in the windy day with SketchBook with SketchBook Hello. Pen-up users! This is @Gavriel. We are having the third time of ‘drawing naturally’. Today, we are going to draw a character using an environmental factor of so called wind. I often use this method to give dynamic effects. You can make the characters livelier by giving wind effect on what might feel a bit humdrum. Now, let’s begin.
Tumblr media
Make a body pose at first. I drew a confident-looking pose. The pose will gradually change a bit.
Tumblr media
I put hairs fluttered in wind. For natural look, it is advised to mix thick and fine hair wads and big and small wave curls.
Tumblr media
You need to make hair direction unfixed from up to down. That helps make more natural drawing. And you also may want to have the hairs fly not in parallel as much as possible.
Tumblr media
Let me now draw a skirt flapped in wind. You must have already figured out where wind is from. Make the skirt move around in the same direction of hair moving as you were taught the last time.
Tumblr media
As I told you on hair expression, make wrinkle sizes vary. And draw wrinkles in line with wind direction.
Tumblr media
It goes the same for the top. Draw various sizes of flaps.
Tumblr media
And make the clothes flutter along with body carves and wind direction.
Tumblr media
You will have this figure if compared to the unclothed original shape. For the side where wind comes from, the cloths are pushed to tightly stick to the body and for the other side where wind goes out the clothes are drawn as distant from the body as its size.
Tumblr media
Now we are entering the final sketch stage. Still, there are some parts that we need to remain careful.
Tumblr media
This is it. Earrings must move in the same direction of wind.
Tumblr media
Also, you shouldn’t miss such small parts like this. You need to be consistent in the directions and make delicate expressions. Then, the sketch is done.
Tumblr media
Give final touch to the lines.
Tumblr media
Add some wind-expressing elements. Of course, we can add something various such as leaves, petals, snow, rain by using our imagination. Can’t we? When one draws, such imaginations exerts tremendous power.
Tumblr media
It is almost done, but still seems something to be missing.
Tumblr media
I put some checks in order to enhance details. Finally, it is done with coloring.
Tumblr media
I have tried to give you drawing tips for the three rounds under the theme of ‘drawing naturally’. I have wanted to tell you drawing tips which make more quality pictures rather than technical tips on how to draw lines or to handle brushes. There’s no one perfect from the beginning. Paintings have no limit though you get used to. That is why paintings bring a lot of fun. I hope that you guys draw fun paintings. I also hope that paintings make both painters and audiences have fun, rather than focusing on pretty and well-drawn paintings. I thank you readers for your time reading this lengthy note and thank PENUP administration team for this good opportunity. How did you find the drawing tips by @Gavriel? We learned how to draw naturally by expressing the wind direction with moved-along clothes and hairs. Consistent expressions of delicate details in the same direction with wind lead to more natural display. It seems lovely to give wind effects when you want to draw dramatic characters. Please don’t forget to visit @Gavriel feed and drop thank you line for his useful drawing tips.

[Interview] HOF November 2017 @rang
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Q1. @PENUP : Hello. Artist @ rang. You’ve been appointed as the HOF of November. Congratulations! How do you feel? A1. @rang : Hello. First of all, thank you so much. At first, I got so many alarms which made me wonder. Thank you PENUP team for awarding me.
Tumblr media
Q2. @PENUP : A lot of people are curious about you. Please introduce yourself. A2. @rang : My name is Lee Mi-rang with a nickname @rang. I am a housewife with two boys, six years old and four years old each.
Tumblr media
Q3. @PENUP : Now, let’s talk more about your art. You have a consistent theme; you always show a beautiful girl character in your art piece. What is the reason for this? A3. @rang : At first, I only drew the girls’ faces. As I drew more of them, I wanted to draw prettier ones. As I studied how to draw even better ones, I always ended up drawing beautiful girls. When I draw beautiful girls, I feel good. That is probably why I draw a lot of beautiful girls.
Tumblr media
Q4. @PENUP : All the characters have different concepts. The concept is revealed through situations, clothes and poses. Examples would be a beautiful mermaid with attractive pose, a magician that does magic and a woman in deep thought under the flower trees. You always make dramatic characters with clothes and poses that perfectly match with each story. How do you come up with such concept? A4. @rang : I like people in fantasy. I can draw the magicians and mermaids the way I like, and I can be more free in style as they are not real people. I always try to think about mystical images. Although I may lack in skills, I try to be as much fantasy-like as possible.
Tumblr media
Q5. @PENUP : Each character has magnificent hairstyle or clothes. You may have got the motif or inspirations from the cartoons or game characters. Where did you get the inspiration from? A5. @rang : The word inspiration makes me quite shy. I would say that those clothes are something that I wanted to wear but can’t try on. In other words, I would say it would be a vicarious pleasure of mine.
Tumblr media
Q6. @PENUP : It seems like you like oriental costumes with vivid colors. Is there any reason why you frequently draw oriental costumes? A6. @rang : I think Hanbok, the Korean traditional costume, is very beautiful indeed. In Japanese animation or illustrations, kimono or yukata appear very often. I hoped that people would notice that Hanbok is beautiful enough as they see my drawings. Also, whenever I draw a character in Hanbok, it makes me peaceful emotionally.
Tumblr media
Q7. @PENUP : In your feed, I saw your captures of mobile drawing with the drawing app called “MEDIBANG Paint”. It was so surprising to see how you could do these details in a character with mobile drawing. What mobile device do you use? Do you use any other drawing apps aside from MEDIBANG Paint? Do you have any other drawing apps that you would want to recommend the PENUP users? A7. @rang : I used Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and changed to Note 5 very recently. Mobile drawing is not an easy work. I just didn’t get used to other drawing apps. Instead of getting recommendations, I think it would be better for one to try different apps to come up with the best ones. Q8. @PENUP : There are many people who think that drawing a character with mobile device is very difficult. Can you tell them a piece of advice or tip of your own when you do character drawing with the mobile device? A8. @rang : I think the use of layers could be one tip. At first, I didn’t even know what layer was. Once you get to know what it is and start using it, the coloring of background, small objects and coloring itself would be a bit easier and you can get different effects in place.
Tumblr media
Q9. @PENUP : Most of your characters are beautiful girls. But, there are some men characters that catch one’s eye. You also uploaded a piece entitled “First attempt of drawing a man!” with a man character in the beginning of this year. I feel that we can meet not only beautiful girls but also beautiful boys in your feed. What are your upcoming future drawing plans? A9. @rang: As I draw more and more girls, I felt that there is no more diversity. So, I tried several times, but I felt it is very difficult. Nevertheless, I am trying hard without giving up. I want to draw male characters, as well as couples. Please look forward to my drawings.
Tumblr media
Q10. @PENUP : We are up to last question. Please leave us a comment to PENUP team. A10. @range : The best part about PENUP is that I get to communicate with a lot of people from different parts of the world. I get cheered up as there are people out there in the world really enjoy my work and give me praises. Please keep this positive channel move on.
How was our interview with @rang? We were always curious about how this fantasy world of beautiful girls came into life. Through the interview, we get to know better about how this world is drawn. We look forward to more drawings of the artist. Please don’t forget to leave a message to @rang, our HOF of the month. November is here. We are only a month away from the end of 2017. What did you think as you flip the page of a calendar for 10 times? This would be the most opportune time for you to think back about the year. Think about your past one year before you flip the last page of the calendar that is flying to December. Also, think about the very rosy days ahead of you.
