That's a good list to work on! the best way to avoid using black is to stop using it..especially with landscapes, blacks kills all the life out of em.
I highly recommend shaddy's environment vids ( 8 parts) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFx1BK0DPcQ
as someone who cant paint landscapes for shit i learned a ton.
He's using brushes that don't rely too much on textures or patterns, which you can also download.
RE: Sam's Arty Things - Devil Glonk - 01-14-2013
awesome thanks! they've been added straight to the bookmarks. :)
Ill shoot through those tomorrow
RE: Sam's Arty Things - Devil Glonk - 01-14-2013

RE: Sam's Arty Things - Devil Glonk - 01-24-2013
trying to loosen up after being told about brush economy. Feels weird but looks alright. :)

40 min doodle, looks like this practice and studying is paying off.

RE: Sam's Arty Things - MrBeast - 01-25-2013
I dig those rocks. How did you do that? Textures? Textured brushes? Or is it just some rough brush strokes?
RE: Sam's Arty Things - Devil Glonk - 01-25-2013
cheers man, i used these bad boys. http://jonasdero.deviantart.com/art/BRUSH-SET-Photoshop-Painting-Brushes-348274576

RE: Sam's Arty Things - Ursula Dorada - 03-09-2013
Nice movie studies man!
I see youre trying to paint all the hair strands in and then smooth it out. If I may suggest it, paint first the big clumps of hair. Squint, paint what you see. No fine lines. Almost think of it as a hair on an action figure - overall volumes, indication of light, but no fine detail.
When you're dong with the overall volume, than you paint smaller lines for individual hairs. This usually gives hair a more consistent result. You will see you see more "texture" on light areas, and almost none in shadows.

Ah awesome thank you!
I HATE doing hair, i always threaten to do hair studies and practice but keep putting it off. >_<
I really need to get on it!!
Thank you again. :)
This is one of my tomb raider entries, slowly rendering her and changing bits here and there. Any and all crit very welcome and appreciated!

Study in lighting and cloth, can't remember the total time, think it was close to 3 hours.

RE: Sam's Arty Things - Devil Glonk - 02-07-2015
Here's 2015's work so far, need to study my ass off this year and will be posting all my terrible efforts here!
For all of these, i had a purpose in mind unlike my previous studies which was mainly mindless copying and learnt sweet fuck all.
The poses below were 2 mins each apart from the girls at the bottom who had no time limit

[/URL]This was a failed attempt at painting over 3d, my fundamental skills are way too bad for me to be pulling something like this off. Never mind, live and learn!

[/URL]Still life study, was looking around my desk for really simple shapes to practice my lighting
![[Image: 04.01.15%20copy_zpse0wrepgj.jpg]](http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag32/Sam_Denmark/04.01.15%20copy_zpse0wrepgj.jpg)
[/URL]Speaking of lighting, i got one of these specifically for my still life studies, it's really useful. Especially if your desk is as cluttered a mine and you have no room or a normal sized desk light!

Another still life

[/URL]Study from a promo poster of the film, he's a really odd material (which is why i tried to paint him) as he's sort of 20% transparent and cloudy. You'll know what i mean if you've seen the film.

[/URL]Another still life, took much longer on this one and was done over 2 nights (so it was dark and the lighting would match) The black on is a candle so isn't anatomically correct, but has a cool texture.

[/URL]Last off trying to put some of this into practice. Its no fun doing endless studies if i can't put them to some use

[/URL]This month is anatomy month, so at the end of it ill do something with it. it'll most likley be disgusting and gross.
