RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 11-26-2014

More sketchbook stuff. Currently trying desperately to find commissions, cause of...well...rent, so if anyone is in need of some art for their project, know that I am REALLY OPEN FOR COMMISSIONS :))

In the mean time, some more sketchbook pages, these are kind of old now, I guess

One more photo study I haven't done full figure ones in a looong time. I think these will help me a lot with proportions

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 11-29-2014

Photo study, trying to be a bit looser with my strokes and to think a bit more about light and color. I'm still making a lot of mistakes with the human body and perspective. It's pretty frustrating :D Gotta do more work!! :O

Really amazing. You have such confident lines. Mine are always wobbling and uncontrollable, lol. Keep up the excellent studies and work. Keep this up. I think you should be making money off of this right NOW. haha. 088

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 12-18-2014

Bookend - Thanks man! Yeah, money sounds good right about now XD

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - StardustLarva - 12-19-2014

Wow, that's some very well defined traditional work! Great job on the still life as well, you've captured the light reflections well.

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 12-19-2014

StardustLava - Thank you! Trying my best to get better :) (well maybe not my best, damn it should be my best...double damn...)

Hawk study for a possible upcoming illustration, we'll see how it goes :D

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Bookend - 12-19-2014

Awesome! Grin

Really great. Especially the still life-- Very impressed, man. Just keep up this pace. It's madness. It's greatness. Go forth! Multiply images! Lol

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 12-19-2014

Bookend - Thank you! Love the enthusiasm! Also love your name!! :)

Streaming in 5 mins! This time it's a more "dangerous" still life setup :D

We will be continuing with the lotr audiobook. If anyone cares, we're on the fellowship of the ring - Fog on the Barrow-Downs :)

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 12-20-2014

Another still life painting.

The shapes on the highlights were very difficult for me and I don't think they came out right. I just need to do more of these :)

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Bookend - 12-20-2014

It looks minorly jaggedy, but not much else to say-- Practice makes permanent, so practice and get 'er done! Grin

RE: Othrandir's sketchbook - Othrandir - 12-20-2014

Bookend - I absolutely agree. I didn't like the outcome of that one. Practice is on the menu though, and I'M HUNGRY :D

Streaming for about an hour and a half in 5 mins! Listening to classic rock this time.
