I always love seeing your updates! Super awesome :).

gchong I would love to work for Valve but unfortunately, no. It's just voluntary illustrations for community workshop :)

Mannyhaatz Thanks! I'm trying to have as much fun with them as it's possible :D

Samszym You're next person who is saying how oils are unrewarding. I wonder cuz I was painting oils back in school days and I have good memories about them. I don't know if I made good decision about picking acrylis. I would like to paint alla prima than applying many layers of thin paint...

OtherMuzz thanks man! :D

new wave of 15min speedarts:









I finally started drawing classes with model. So awesome to draw from life! (sorry for quality, looks like my lens is bluring at the edges of the picture...)

Wonderfull sketchbook, those figure drawings are looking good.
Keep it up!


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 02-28-2014

Oooh LOVE this faces, oh my <3


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Warburton - 03-01-2014

Holy crap, those portraits are amazing! Thanks for sharing the process of them too <3


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - OtherMuzz - 03-01-2014

Yes! those are really amazing.

What is that facial construction style? i've seen it around before and it seems really effective?


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 03-02-2014

Hey OtherMuzz it's Reilly abstraction. The best resource I found is here (inside head4.pdf):

It looks like a lot artists have their own interpretation of it. I meet with this idea in many books but in pure form is most efficient ;)


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Matthias Kinnigkeit - 03-02-2014

Nice portraits! In generall your latest sketches and studies are pretty nice! The fisherman from post 72 is great! :D


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 03-03-2014

Adding one promo made for prolonged set for DOTA character (I still have to make textures before posting in workshop) I had a looot of time to detail it correctly


and a fresh work, started yesterday, finished today.




RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Warburton - 03-05-2014

I think I might be a bit in love with your painting style :p These latest pieces are looking goooood.

Only thing I can think to point out is on the top one, her dagger/sword looks a tad warped in perspective, with the angle of her body and the highlights on the blade. It feels like it should be pointing slightly towards us but comes across as a bit flat.

Can't wait to see more updates!


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - eru - 03-06-2014

you are a master painter please show us how you made this from bottom and up, or what tutorials did you learn from . I mean from a simple sketch to intense rendering, your so good :D


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 03-08-2014

more speed paintings, some studies, and introduction to Child of Zeus! If you somehow missed this thread in COMMUNITY CHALLENGES You have to check it right now! http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-4845.html
















RE: Madzia's sketchbook - rafa zanchetin - 03-08-2014

Damn! I'm not much into DOTA but those 2 pieces are awesome, as are all your head studies. Keep rocking!


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 03-08-2014

Thanks rafa zanchetin!
progress for the child of Zeus





RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Jaik - 03-09-2014

Nice updates. looking really good. Can't believe I didnt see the crimson arena thing until just now -___-

Think I will definitely get in on this at some point.


A couple of those smiles in the studies are creepy as hell, not sure why, they just scare me.. The entry itself is looking great though :D


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 03-11-2014

I came to the realization how much I hate working with cool light so this will be my next assignment, until I will understand how cool light are exactly working and how make them appealing.
20min each study. Does anybody already discovered time machine? I need more hours in a day 24 is not enough :)




RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Pictomancer - 03-11-2014

Amazing sketchbook!

The wing chains on QoP was a really nice touch, and loving the Subsurface light and head studies.

Your grasp on light and color is amazing. I need to remind myself to try and avoid using pure blacks or whites when working with color.


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - pnate - 03-12-2014

You are just killing it! Can't wait to see your finished piece for the new bloodsports


RE: Madzia's sketchbook - Madzia - 03-12-2014

Pictomancer thanks a lot! yeah avoiding black and white is really important to bring vibrancy to colors, but from other side I suck at painting with grays :D it's like next level of advancement.

pnate thanks! I will try to not disappoint you (and myself) with Crimson Arena!

Autoportrait with cool light. Gosh, cool light on skin is mind bending, but I can almost feel the grasp on it...
