Love the robot design and the crazy tilted angle on the time warriors.

I love that you are telling some story in all your pictures. Mysterious, unexpected they keep in suspense. Good job! they are pretty creative but in my humble opinion you could take better care of perspective because they sometimes looks like cut from different pictures and paste in one.

Check you pictures in gray scale often, in fact value in much more important than colors. Values makes object readable. What's in front of the picture what's in background depends on value and contrast. For example the river and forest below characters have really strong value contrast but robot girl is really bright. It should be inverted because object closer to viewer are more contrast than farther one. Also I think Your pictures suffer from emptiness. The important objects in scene would benefit if they where bigger, taking more space of the picture. Otherwise you end with a lot empty spots with not interesting grass fields etc.
Be brave! :) You set your bar high so don't give up :D

Hey Madzia. Thanks for all the critiques. Yeah I know I had some troubles with this piece. I actually opened a thread about it to get some pointers. If you're interested what others said you can check it out here http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-2910.html Anyways thanks for all the help. Will use all the tips on the next piece I'll make :) And also thanks for the support and kind words it's gonna be a long journey.
Here's one of my latest pieces. It was a quick environment piece I did in a few hours.

Impressive use of texture! Have you tried making the head the brightest spot in the painting by making other bone-white pieces just slightly darker? It could really make his mask the focal point from first sight.
RE: Latest stuff - califfguzman - 12-05-2013
there are some interesting things going on with textures

Hey smrrfette

What do you mean by "dem" edges - like in a good way or like a critic? can't be sure from just reading. Anyways a critic is always welcome.

Hey Daggers
The year is coming to an end and I just wanted to share some progress of my work and personal experience. I used to spent hours on internet just watching other peoples great stuff posting on deviantart, cgsociety, cghub... But last year I got feed up with it and I decided I wanted to paint too so I bought myself my first wacom tablet cuz using mouse was too awkward and frustrating. I spent some free time sitting at my computer and playing around with photoshop and in a year I progressed immensly. So I'm real tired of people talking to them selves that they are not good enough like I used to. Bruce Lee once said "Never think of the outcome." Well I'm ading a little something too. If you say to yourself you're not good enough you're probably right... but there's a surprise for you: If you say to yourself I AM GOOD ENOUGH you are right just the same. So the outcome will be just whatever you make of it. So the only thing you really need to do is to be honest with yourself and ask yourself one question: Do I want to paint? If the answer is yes go and pick up that wacom brush and start painting RIGHT NOW!
