@PurpleScissors yeah that's it, but sometimes it's quite hard to see because of the highlight and shadow :p

Masterstudy Day 7





RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - Amit Dutta - 03-12-2016

A belated welcome to the daggers! If you keep doing these, you will definitely improve during the course of the month. I second Piotr's suggestion to also do value studies alone. Your values are improving, but there is still a tendency to go over dark, or not get the contrast levels within separate depth layers right for the distance. I can see you have put some thought behind your simplification...keep trying to boil things down to their main essence. That kind of mental analysis is gold for your skills. Keep at it!


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - BrushNoir - 03-13-2016

@Amit Dutta Thanks alot! I will do more value studies as you both suggested. I really appreciate all the feedback I'm getting here, makes me learn alot more in less time!

Great study BrushNoir, could you tell the master's name?


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - BrushNoir - 03-15-2016

@neopatogen thank you, the name of the master/painting is: Frederic Edwin - Church View of the Hudson River from Olana

Masterstudy Day 10/21 (Frederic Edwin)

Wow this one turned out bad haha, guess it was a way to difficult painting at this point. No way I could see any logical shapes eventhough I was zoomed out pretty far. Anyway here goes.

Masterstudy 8 looks good , so theres an issue with the greens probably on the last one, its
so hard to do.


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - BrushNoir - 03-15-2016

@Liberty haha yeah, perhaps I need to play with some new brushes for ''greens'' and do it bob ross style ^^


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - ZombieChinchilla - 03-15-2016

Great studies, man! I see you've done it a few times before but remember to just keep applying what you learn and do some paintings from imagination. Try to actively think while you're doing studies, and perhaps take notes on what you're doing as you go. Keep working!


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - BrushNoir - 03-15-2016

@Zombiechinchilla thanks and yeah I'm trying to get my imagination stuff up. i try to apply stuff to the CC and when I have more time I do something completely different.


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - BrushNoir - 03-16-2016

Masterstudy Day 11/21 Halfways yay!





RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - Eyliana - 03-16-2016

Nice master studies. The colours feel really great and the mood is definitely there.

Could you tell me the artist name of Day 8? I love the fantasy vibe that one gives.


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - AChi - 03-16-2016

Good colour and spacing!


RE: BrushNoir Sketchbook - BrushNoir - 03-16-2016
