Good point there about the values, Clockodile! Guess that practice was mostly about blending those lighter mid values and getting some form in there. No excuse not to use the whole scale and making it interesting however xD
Dear Sketchbook-sneaker and potential new or returning commenter and feedbacker. If you haven't heard of the First law trilogy, or any other of Joe Abercrombies book for that matter, do your inspiration a favor and give them a good read! Feels like I've mentioned these books on several occasions now, not getting paid for it mind you!
So..Some quick two-value sketches of some of the northmen from said books. Might continue on some of them, get some half tones in there and start rendering about.
Another speedpaint. Don't like this so much, think I'm gonna focus more other things in the coming weeks since my temp work is over soon. Wanna sit down and take some time with my paintings gods dammit!
Here's a bunch of sketches from life and from imagination while I'm about.
