Hey all, how do I scifi? Daily practice turned into bidaily because I'm a lazy bum. Comments/crits/feedback very much welcome! Scifi, robots and vehicles are the opposite of my comfort zone.

Hey, awesome stuff here, I like that sci-fi one too. I'm no expert in sci-fi, but when it comes to mind I think of very sharp edges. :)

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - Adam Lina - 07-01-2014

Nice job on that scifi painting. Comfort zone be damned. I feel weird giving YOU advice but if scifi is hard try studying design and building your form language with mechanical stuff. I found this video by Anthony Jones helpful on how to go about this...

My shot at the D&D art test (character part)
This is the "orc cook". It's conceptartsy, so not rendered to the bone, but besides that I gave this a good shot - any feedback is VERY welcome! My hope is to finally land some work with Wizards :)

Kobold guy design :) Tried a totally different technique for this, anyone like it? Lemme know what you think!
Might give him some clothes/props/whatnot if people dig this!

I love your orc guy! One thing that might help though is adding some sharp edges on his face/key areas.. but the pose, design, light and everything are spot on!
I also like your kobold guy, it's a pretty unusal approach, but thats a good thing IMO. Rock on! :)

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - JordyLakiere - 07-12-2014

thank you kaffer!

Kobold design/concept art update. could use some more personality, anyone got any ideas?

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - ShinOkami - 07-12-2014

Hey there, really diging on your kobold guy, one really promising design for a character, maybe try something like elder cobold with that long white beard on the chin wearing an old hood, something like that~ :S

Anyways, really nice style and lots of room for improvrment, keep it up :)

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - JordyLakiere - 07-13-2014

thank you shinokami!

quick dwarf sketch, they are at their least beardy ages :)

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - Patrick Gaumond - 07-19-2014

I think of all the "eras" of painting you can do, scifi probably benefits the most from having sharp edges. Try tightening up some of the shapes a bit. If you want something to feel very manufactured, hard shapes is the way to go. Theres a reason why hard edge abstraction paintings feel cold and industrial, precisely because theyre only hard edges. Not to say that you should have only hard edges, because they will ruin a good painting, but some nice hard shapes in the focal point at least will go a long way

Also, I feel like the guys arm is blending in too much with the bike, at first glance i thought he was inside the bike (like a car) or that he was leaning on it. So either separate with different hues or increase the contrast between them

And that last sketch is really great dude!

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - JordyLakiere - 07-19-2014

Thank you very much man! Awesome nickname :)

Stuff made for a thing I can't disclose! :) Crits welcome, had a tight timeframe so they are speedpaints, but still!

And a landscape sketch for once! (no refs, but inspired by a Gurney piece)

RE: Jordy's Sketchbook with Art Stuff - pnate - 07-27-2014

Wow, fantastic updates all around! The only crit I would give is that in all of the recent posts, if you just added a few sharp edges, especially in the focal areas, I think it would push what you already put down.
