Sorry.

RE: Jake Bullock - 10000 Hour Rule - 3279/10,000w - JakeB - 11-23-2013

Want to start working on my visual library a bit more (in the hope that I'll be able to think of something cool to paint more easily). So I'm going to incorporate that 4x study exercise in a bit more often. Rather than just floundering through a spit painting, I'll study something to do with one of the topics, then apply them to the spit painting itself (sticking to 30 mins for the actual painting of course - think of the studies as prep). And also, I'm going to try to finish things more often. I.e. Pick a subject, study it, then apply the studies in a reasonably quick piece. Hopefully this'll help me to streamline my process, whilst giving me a way to explore loads more subjects. We'll see :). Basically what I'm saying is.. More studies, more paintings. It's gotta work ;)

So, here's the stuff from yesterday.

RE: Jake Bullock - 10000 Hour Rule - 3300/10,000 - Warburton - 11-28-2013

sick updates as always man. I especially like that piece of the dude in the snowy mountains. The values and use of edges all feel very unified, if that makes sense?

The studies being applied by the spilt paints is a cool idea too. I might try that one myself :p Don't be afraid to sometimes take a study to a further finish too man. I know the whole idea is to take the info and move on asap but sometimes trying to get your study as close to the ref as possible and spending a few hours on it works wonders. I guess it's all subjective though haha.

In regards to the breaking bad piece, it looks cool on the most part! Just a few little anatomy issues which could use some tweaking. Both their feet look a little large, especially on walter who's feet look a bit out of perspective, mainly on his left foot. His legs seem a tad large and his arm abit small too. I could be wrong also but Jesse's head seems a tiny bit small also.

hope that helps man, and gratz on hittin the 3300 mark! That's pretty insane when you think about it. Only another 6700 and your gonna be serious pro level xD Th_096_K

RE: Jake Bullock - 10000 Hour Rule - 3308/10,000 - ramalooke - 11-29-2013

Oh c'mon! You and you're quality shitload of work. Love it! I even don't know what to say. Just keep doing what you're doing. Peace!

RE: Jake Bullock - 10000 Hour Rule - 3308/10,000 - JakeB - 11-29-2013

Warburton - Cheers dude. Probably should have finished that one properly, there was just some stuff broken about it, which I couldn't be bothered to fix. Snowy rocks are super fun to paint though, so I'm sure I'll do something like that again soon ;). Cheers for the crits, think I fixed those bits for the most part, repainted Jesse's face as well in the end.
Yeah, I definitely neglect longer studies, need to try and do them more regularly again I think. Today!
Haha thanks, almost a third of the way there :)

Ramalooke - Cheers man, means a lot. :D

Alrighty, finished both of these yesterday. Wooo :) Hope you like them :)
