RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 06-06-2014
Started the day with a meeting....what better place to doodle some thumbnails :)
Some hand drawings without and with reference
Tried to step out of my comfort zone and do some extreme perspective angles. I failed miserably and did some studies instead. I need to switch off autocorrect in my brain for this extreme foreshortening!
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 06-07-2014
Some update with beans, hand studies from a live 3D model and some characters for fun
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Othrandir - 06-07-2014
Cool designs man! Hah, thanks for reminding me about the beans thing. I should do that myself :O
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 06-12-2014
@Othrandir: Thanks! Some basic shapes once in a while are great to get into the mood, especially if you are unsure of what to draw
Some hand/feet studies and some characters for fun. I have to start doing more digital stuff soon....Doing too much comfort zone stuff :(
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 06-24-2014
Update after some no upload phase with some things done lately:
An armor study
A landscape study from photo reference
A master study (Bierstadt):
Some thumbnail master studies in color and value (mostly Bierstadt and Hudson River school)
Pencil studies from photoreference, from http://andantonius.deviantart.com/ and from http://alexpascenko.deviantart.com/
A character design sketch in pencil and in paint:
A landscape "speedpainting" taken a slight step further (not finished though)
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Samszym - 06-24-2014
Cool stuff dude! Keep plugging away.
Bit of a crit on that landscape speedpaint, I can't tell if the tree, city, or warrior are the most important things in the image. I think editing on or 2 of them out might make the focal point more clear
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Kaffer - 06-24-2014
Great studies & sketches! The excessive amount of anatomy studies definitely pays off! Really believable characters and poses!
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 07-02-2014
@Samszym: Thanks for your crit, as always! Yeah, I messed up the focal point. I tried to create a row of focal points, but that doesn´t work well
@Kaffer: Thanks very much! Good to hear studying actually does improve oneself :)
I made some random character generator, based on the character generator here on the Crimson Dagger forum to try to create characters that someone/something else describes. It went better as expected because it takes away that blank canvas in your mind. I tried to stay as true to the description as possible.
The first one, I sketched out and made a rendering of it, the others are just pencil sketches, maybe I´ll render some of those

Small update with some face doodles
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 07-13-2014
An update with studying pencilsketches from other fellow artists, sort of master studies. I tried to analyze how others apply pencils and afterwards I did some sketches on my own.

Faces, faces and faces

RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 07-25-2014
Doodles, expressions and a pose variation sketch with maintaining the core body, but giving the limbs a new pose
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - JeanDoe - 07-26-2014
Hi Elderscroller,
I really like that 'monster rider' in the last post. And that little still life is so cute :)
Your work is very inspirational!
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 07-31-2014
@JeanDoe: Thanks very much!
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Adam Lina - 07-31-2014
The expressions are looking good man! Im always impressed at how consistent you work too. It makes me feel guilty for not doing enough drawing. So dont ever stop :D
RE: Elderscrollers Sketchy Stuff - Elderscroller - 07-31-2014
@Hypnagogic_Haze: Thanks! I know that feeling. I always feel guilty for not drawing enough myself :) Guess that won´t go away so easily, even if you´d draw for 8 hours a day
Small update; just ignore the beast master character, it turned out awful and stiff looking. Just added it to also archive bad work
