Hey MonoOrder, thanks alot for the warm welcome!
I could post more of what i did the last 2 months, but im startin really quick to hate my stuff after a while.. i learn so much every week that i see flaws here and there in my old works, but its a good thing!
i'll focus more on actual studys i am doing, and hopefully some ideas will turn out magically into a nearly finished piece :D
i am preparing for a cthulu artwork, so i study some animals first (anatomy, rendering etc).
i started with a rhino! had 2 pix for reference, front and side-view and tried to make a 3D modell of it by understanding how the form flows.
my values failed on first try, i noticed it in the coloring step, felt wrong so i fixed it. hopefully i can establish a sense for the right values on startup next time...
parfumebottle - study for liquids and glass, refraction and yaddayadda. sadly it was like copying it but havnt understood everything about it. next time im using my own bottle as reference to copy, so i know what is in the environment, reflected and refracted... i know how it works in theory, but need some practice
last pic, my sketchy bouncin hamster yaw!
