:D lol. i swear my english is not that bad. its summer. i have a bucnh of free time. i want to improve and make some friends that want to improve :) dont be scared, come talk to me, y'all!
those are all from this week.
if you want to see older work, please check my DA or my blog ;)
I've been working on bloodsports. its my first time.
quite difficult stuff.
took me forever to get this. finding comp/light and then setting up perspective.
crits would be very very appreciated
i would totally use your wallpaper with the cat for my kitchen :D what is it called, to repaper? anyways, you got some really nice moods in your colored pix, really inspiring, especially the last 2 ones
nice stuff in here (: in the first works I can still see the black lines from the underlaying sketch, maybe it'd be better if you avoid that, even though looking back at your sketch every now and then -to look how you should keep the energy from your sketch in your work- wouldn't harm you.
in these last two works I can't see any sketchlines, and the colors are pretty rad, and that's why I like them more. the cat wallpaper is awesome indeed : p
I think you will improve pretty fast if you keep on going, so lets do dis (:
janvonfrosta - hahaha i was acctually thinking of doing that. would be nice to have some artwork on walls! hahaha. thanks! :D
Budgie - thanks a lot man. true true. lines dont look to good. they mess up the values. but i cant paint without them. since they were pretty fast sketches i didnt got rid of it. but ill take note on that. thanks a lot for the input :)
Markus - thanks man :) will do.
neh neh.
a study and something from imagination. sonewhere along i lost track of the head construction. stuff looks a little off. i feel like i always do chubby faces. with huge cheeks. gotta check to see if im building my structure wrong.
Oooft!
Off to a good start (:
I wish I could give you crit but I seriously don't know how. Although I shall add that that last Bloodsports entry is very attractive! Dat lighting. :0
sketchbook | pg 52
"Not a single thing in this world isn't in the process of becoming something else." I'll be back - it's an odyssey, after all
feeling pretty bad about today's results.
wasnt thinking enough during those portraits. transition are all weird. and i still dont feel like i know how to save to deepest values to the right spots.
plus i am(and have always been) scared of highlight. but recent studies have shown me that is not nescesary to go all the way up in the value scale. so.... ?
anyways.
couples SPs with failled construction. i should try a couple new aproches/workflow to those.
and doodle from head
hm.
a Mucha study.
and a doodle.
Saturation is tricky.
to say the least.
its like it hides in the transitions. but never in solid colors. i can never wrap my head around it.
i was being stupid before and forgeting basic stuff about color, its hard to remember everything. (aka grey point and color relation)
the study is weird. the lights are yellow-ish and the shadows red-ish. i dont know which to call the warm and which is the cold. but i guess the names dont matter?
noone probably want to hear my stupid thoughs. but im forcing myself to write in order to not forget things. like i do so many times.
pretty unsure today of where i was going.
the study just confirms some very basic grey point/warm-cool theory
and I really dont know about the imagination piece. theory doesnt make much sense when i try to apply it. the red of the blood trows me off a bit.
and the saturated light was a guess. did it work?
kencentric - oH MAN! what do you mean? uuuggg im so confused! hahahah. if you are referign to the bloodsports one i do agree it needs more "stuff" . but could you explain it further pleeeeease?
yo.
motivation is runing low after those 2 weeks :/
why? why must i run out of fuel. why?!?!?!?!??!????????
anywhay.
2 studies that kinda went south with a couple shapes and values.
but hey! i finally finished reading color and light by gurney. took me long enough. i should have been smarter and read it way way way earlier.but im kinda hooked on theory books. right now framed ink by mateus mestre is the one ;)
