So, I was going to not update, but I remember I am bound to show failures too
Also, I feel bad for not updating. Feels like I have not been doing my work.

While i am against you feeling bad in any way I am happy you show us your stuff, even when you are not happy with it. I actually love the upper one. The wet floor and the itneresting architecture are nice. The lower one has not enough substance for my taste - and the colors are a bit cheesy. ;)
Glad you share your stuff with us!!!!!!

@Pnate: thanks man :D It was very fun to do.

Today's enviro, I have the feeling it was inspired by Chritophe Vacher's http://static.squarespace.com/static/500...edator.jpg
I should have studied it first. Oh well. :p Have to try again now.

Very nice.
I like how you have the focus on that little house and the rest looses contrast when it goes higher. If i can add some personal experience i made. I live near the alps and can see the mounains on clear days. While the contrast gets lesser and lesser in the distance and you sometimes have problems to seperate sky and moutnains the edges keep clear. In your picture the edges get kinds fuzzy - maybe better let let the colors and values approach the background but keep clear edges.

@Pearwood: this spotlighting thing is fascinating <3
@Wolken: woot :D Thanks for the awesome feedback! I was supposed to test it today, but I was distracted by the copics.

Official beauty shot (lol) of the sketching today.

The lit house enviro is THE perfect example for "how to successfully create a strong focus point"!

But I could swear that it was raining in that last enviro when I saw it in my rss reader earlier... and now it isn't. *scratches her head* A small figure somewhere could help to show scale... right now it could be anything from medium sized to huge.

Oh, and nice portrait, as always :)

@Foxfire: thanks <3
@Lyraina: Thank you! And haha I have been back and fort with the rain effect myself. I think it has something to do with the vertical brushstrokes - I need to be careful with that on the next one.
@ShinOkami: thank you :D
@Nimao: thaaanks :hug:
@MrToodles: haha yep! Name accepted
@Construction: thanks <3
@BlewzenL <3 Thank you! yay!
@Protsenko: Thank you <3

So!
I am flying under the radar with client stuff again, so less updated here. Except Chris Oatley's assignments for PD2 this week! I have a skull-a-day assignment for the next 4 weeks, and 3 portraits for this week. Here is the first skull:

It's actually a while since I have drawn a skull, is it weird I was almost overwhelmed by all the plane shifts? This is going to be an interesting exercise.
