great sketches. I love when people do some Chulhu inspired stuff because everyone get their own idea :). the last portrait looks for me "vintage" and i like it:) great job
Anyways, here are some lousy sketches I managed to squeeze into my horrible schedule, and a WIP for a digital winter themed image which I will, HOPEFULLY, finish.
I also kinda like sketch #2 in a maybe-I-should-digitally-color-it kinda way, but at this point I'll be happy if I ever get to digitally color anything in my life again.
Nothing much, just what I was able to squeeze in between work. First up, rough sketch of Anubis. It's supposed to be a back tattoo design for a friend, so I have to add tattooish swirls and shit around him. BTW, I SUCK at that and have no idea whatsoever how to do it. Gave up yesterday after staring at him for two hours.
Next one, a picture that will kill me, rough sketch. Since all of my characters are pretty static and my backgrounds are usually shit, I decided to try something else. the most difficult pose I ever did, took me way too long to draw. Plus, I have to fix perspective everywhere.
Whooooooooaaa! How have I not seen your sketchy before? D:
That post... that post #24 - did you do that all using a hard round and old style blending methods?! That's insaaaaaaaaaaaaane!! Looks like a portfolio piece to me!
And y'know, I really like the design choices you made on this last piece - now I can see her as a real character - with a background story and everything! This piece could be like a prominent scene in a movie, great work!
Btw nice liiiiiiines! Oh and also: Addam's Family fan? woop woop!
Keep it up Maja :D

"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
smrrfette - Thanks :D Actually, in #24 I've shaded with a hard round brush like I would with a pencil, and then spent a million hours blending it, and it STILL looks sketchy. Well, it was worth a try, I guess :)
And yaaahs! Addams Family rules XD
As for the last sketch, as I suspected, it is a bane of my existence. My painting sucks, I'll be coloring it later. Instead, here's today's study of skin colors in a dark environment, god knows I need it :P
Still doing skin studies on blue BG. Here are yesterday's boobs I didn't really render because I was mainly looking for colors that work, and today's portrait I did to see what I've learned from the Magneto study and the boobs study.
Something's wrong with the portrait, but I can't really put my finger on what, since I've been looking at it the whole day. Ah well, I'm letting it go, I'll do the next one better.
Quick update. Two pencil portraits (messed up eyes and ear on the second one) and this week WIP of my attempt at CHOW over at CA.org. Really bleh, I'm supposed to give her wings, and it's just not working for me. I'll have to think of something to fit the brief, though...
