Painting daily

[Seth Lange]

Hello everyone, i've been following the daggers for almost a year now, I've mostly stayed in the shadows and been afraid to post my work, but I guess its time to put myself out there a little bit more and get involved if i can.

Heres most of my studies from the past week or so.





























...those are the majority of my finished studies over the course of the past 3 months. I realize its not a lot but unfortunately school takes up alot of my time and I can only paint when I get open time to get into the school labs after classes. If I can get my camera working I might be able to get some pictures of my model drawings as well.

These are a few of my own personal, I guess you'd say "experiments" testing my limits over time as I study more

cool sketchbook man ! allot of nice studies and paitings .
As for the last painting you should make it darker overall , cuz its never gonna be that light at night , even with a fire .

Thanks alot Dirk. I've gotten alot of feedback on the last piece and i've definately noted the things that are wrong that could be fixed for future use. Its already been handed in for a class so Im not sure if ill work back into it anymore.

took awhile to figure how to post this without it being gigantic. New WIP for a class project due tomorrow. Probably going to change the figure on the right to be holding a slingshot to tell a bit of a different story.

Be careful with getting too dark in your project pieces.

I love armor studies. I'm sure that means I'm insane but I love 'em!

[Seth Lange]

Thanks for the comments guys. I LOVE painting armor studies. Im not sure why but I have the most fun with them.

Traditional painting still life from a couple weeks back. Finally getting around to taking pictures of things. I ended up painting over the skull because I couldnt for the life of me get the correct shade of brown/yellow for the thing.



Random live model studies from the past two weeks. 15-30 minute poses.

quick landcape from scratch

Nice work, your movie studies especially.
In terms of critique, in your non-referenced pieces you often blend really soft shadows into highlights all over which makes the planes less obvious and flattens the image.
Keep posting daily! ;D

[Seth Lange]

thanks for the crit, I'll look through and try to improve off of it.

after watching some of daves videos and such i found a few things that could benefit my own work. Pretty much looks like rapoza fanart.
