Crimson Daggers — Art forum

Tnx, kik, I'll do my best! :)

Well, what I did is I made a portfolio on carbonmade. First ever. If you guys have some suggestions go ahead http://ivanci.carbonmade.com/
Here is some sketch thing, was playing around with chaos for stress relief

looking good iCi! just be sure to add something to the upper left of the picture, maybe something pointing to the bridge in the middle?
Keep it up mate!

hi Ivan,
I really like your traditional work, it is so colorful and expressive.
my critic would be that you should work on your blending. Some of your work on your portfolio could look a bit more smooth. I know you probably have seen this video, but I link it anyway: http://ctrlpaint.com/dp101-3/
maybe some of the mixing exercises help you?
other than that, I really like what I see here :)

great progress since page one! good stuff!

Thank you all, Flo-thanks for the input, I definitely need to work on that!

Totally experiment warmup

I went a bit back to work on this chick, she might turn out ok.

More work on this chick, I have a feelin' that there are a bunch of mistakes that my noobish eye can't see.

2h timed study , imma nail this biatch or i'll die.

I know I gotta push this more, I just can't see where. Oh yea, there's Illidan as well.

Awesome man!

Push the perspective on that Illidan piece a bit more, put more emphasis on his horns and it will soar :D

Hey man keep up the hard work, the progress is looking good. Especially liking the warcraft entry a page back, awesome job!

EDIT:

It paid off to some extent...still not there http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I4nFZK5HpE

P.S. Tnx Sula and Pnate for the encouragement :)

Here iCi, I broke your piece for you :p

Thank you Ursula for being so awesome :)

So, I wanted to try and draw something pretty, so here's the sketch

Btw, the elves are really struggling here- marines are always at least 1 man stronger :) Smells like an elf-barbecue :)

EDIT: took it a bit further...still suck at figure

steady improvement man, looking forward to seeing that angel-elf developed too

great work man! enjoyed looking through your sb. lots of improvement! I would love to see a paint over the landscape drawing. I really like composition in that one.

Tnx Otterclou, working on it.
Tnx Joshi, I intend to do it, though it might suffer some comp shifts :/
So here, some sb doodles, drawings, studies and progress on those two sexies
