Great sketchbook entrance

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - JonHop - 08-23-2012

Great start! That caterpillar piece is really nice, I think it could be a really great piece if you pushed it to a more polished state. I think pushing your values more too include the full range and really working on the shadow and light could bring it closer to a finished illustration.

Keep working hard and posting!

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Nyra - 08-24-2012

Thank you James!
@JonHop: Thanks and I think you're right I really should get back and work some more on it :).

So here's a skull study from life. I also recorded the process and made a video http://youtu.be/Fk3fTD5f-Mg

Welcome to the forums Nyra. Your work is looking good so far, a nice variety of studies and personal work. Top one with the lobster head dress is my favorite so far; a really good idea. Keep it up.

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Nyra - 08-25-2012

Thanks Dennis!
So, the head is finished for the moment. I could render so much more and keep working on it but I am sick of it right now so I keep him like that.
Also did some quick sketches.

So I played too much GW2 lately but I try to get back and draw some more.
I reworked the contrast color and added some details to the worm.

Good studies.
The skull is impressive!

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Nyra - 09-16-2012

Thank you Warre!

So here's a little update of the girl.
Time to work some more on her face, her body and the lighting.

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Fincks - 09-20-2012

I like the concept of your last work.
The wings have too much of a 2D look, it doesn't fit with the rest of the painting.

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Warre - 09-20-2012

great studies, the skull i nicely done.
I also like the colors you use.

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Nyra - 09-22-2012

Thank you Fincks and Warre! You're right about the wings and I didn't even see it. I tried to improve them but I don't really know if it's better right now.

So played a bit around, improved the face a lot in my opinion and tried out a new form of the wings, but I don't really know if I keep them like that or change them back to the original one.
What do you think?

So back to more sketchy stuff and what's better than the first self portraits I've ever done?... so strange painting yourself xD

RE: Nyra's Sketchbook - Nyra - 10-05-2012
