I'd suggest you to have the ropes arround the bull's horns at the base rather than the tips because that way they'll simply slip off.Also since it's fantasy I'd suggest you to make the bull alot more muscular and fierce looking since it seems he's trying to bullride.

you can see that even in the refference you used the bull isn't tied up there. so concider making it look more fantasy since that's what you''re trying to get right ? Maybe give the bull some armor ? Or make the guy look fancier.Ofc those are more of a personal choices , nontheless I think it might help u with the illustration.

Really like the tension in the bull rider pic.

The portrait is coming along well, too. Is the reference sheared/resized a little oddly, though?

I cropped it from a fgure photo, but i didn't care much about that because my goal was to learn rendering :) but thx :)

I like your sketches and work.
The bull rider looks so dramatic.
The portrait rendering sketch is awesome.

WIP - goblin shaman in color, i still need to finish hands and foot, and make spell more transparent, after that i need to add texture...

Trying out composition, it needs to have 4 characters, elf and goblin in front and dark elf and unicorn in back, and all in woods. So it's lots of stuff to put in, i will see how it will work out.

Hey Sin! Comparing your goblin to this last one work shows how much you're improven with shading! I think the sword should be way up higher, more foreshortened. Maybe get some ref and try to translate that into your work :)!

RE: Sin - sketchbook - Sin - 08-02-2013

thx man i will try it ;)

RE: Sin - sketchbook - Sin - 08-07-2013
