Beautiful work Thomas, your value control is superb! From here, I think you might want to play around with hue variations, while maintaining your value schemes.
RE: Thomas' Sketchbook - Thomas Mahon - 09-09-2012

Great work on these Thomas!
RE: Thomas' Sketchbook - RockOnGuy - 09-09-2012
Indeed, the values and form are amazing!
But maybe, in the guy-hiding-from-a-troll one, the dude's pose is a little stiff...
RE: Thomas' Sketchbook - stace - 09-10-2012
Hihihi!
I'll just repost what I said on Mike's stream so YOU DON'T FORGET!
1. Keep on practicing your drawing! Especially anatomy. There is no such thing as too much anatomy!
2. Work on different materials! You're pro at metal, but cloth/fur/trees/rock need some loving too!
3. Keep playing with different lights! It seems you repeat the same lighting situation on all your characters - all lit up with and also a rim light. Cast shadows are your friends, get to know them better.
Otherwise, gogogo! :D

RE: Thomas' Sketchbook - Warburton - 09-16-2012
Amazing work Thomas, its prity jaw dropping how far you've come in about 4 months. Your control of values, edges and rendering are beautiful. This latest character is awesome too, my only crit is to sort that drop shadow on his feet, it looks like hes floating with a grey mist around his ankles. Its only a little correction but atm it doesnt do any justice to the awesomeness of your character. Looking forward to seeing more dude, keep it up!
