Hi everyone, first post here.
I used to post on the old daggers thread on CA and
still have a sketchbook running over there.

Figured it would be beneficial to start showing some of my work here for feedback.
C&C always welcome!

Wow, really great work, have you been studying by yourself?

[Lumens]

Thanks James, i'm ''self taught'' and have a long way to go as i have developed many bad habits i'm trying to change.

[DK]

Beautiful work here Lumens! Keep pushin

[Lumens]

Thanks Dennis!

some photo studies..many hours

[DK]

Cooool! I feel the arms could use some work on the last image but that butt is gorgeous

[Lumens]

ah you're right Dennis, thanks!

Great Harpy studies

[JonHop]

The owl on the left is my fav image in this sketchbook, absolutely beautiful work! A vast amount of good work in here, great studies, well painted, a few times at the beginning of this sketchbook though your human arm anatomy seems a little off. Other than that thanks for the eye candy and just keep pushing it!

[Lumens]

Thanks guys! Here is where i'm at so far..
Critiques are welcome. things i might want to change:

-anatomy of the two harpies at focal point, especially the one above the dwarf. ( extreme fortshortning)
-perspective, scale, admospheric perspective ect.
-temperatures
-tangents between left harpies wings and environment

Good Job on the illustration Lumens

[DK]

That last one came out amazin man. I would add in some small elements though, like showing the old mans cape being torn up, and the harpy with the red hair could have some snow dust flying off the ground after making that landing, and even showing the characters with some cold breath air comin out. Looks really good though, keep it up. Almost looks like a master's painting.

[Lumens]

Thanks for the feedback. I'm working at it..some small changes.

The harpie on the left was more intimidating at first, then i corrected some of the right harpies anatomy making her way more realistic..left harpie looked cartoonish in comparison so i gave her a makeover. as a result every major character looks perhaps a little out of place..or i''m just crazy.
