Heyhey, been a while!

Funny old year, haven't done much tbh, been hiding mainly on facebook. Been feeling better these past few weeks now though, been drawing a lot more, so I thought I'd try and get back on the 'ol forum scene!

I think this will just be a sketchbook and I'll post more finished stuff on other galleries like deviantart and my website.

These are some concepts and such from past few weeks :) I try not to spend more than an hour or two on each one, this keep them fresh and alive I find.

Thanks guys!!

Ursula - Certainly nice to have a sketchbook again, thanks for the welcome back :)

Sprayah - Yeah man, it's good to play around, I enjoy that most.

Update -

Did these drawings on the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 - haven't used it for painting yet but it's GREAT for drawing! Pressure is especially good.

Really nice man, you have a really strong colour palette. I also have to thank you for the tutorial with the tree environment, learned tons! The kiriban looks nice, though in my opinion the brick texture is over-used. Other than that keep on being awesome!

Your sketchbook is STRONG! Eyecandy really.

I thought that Yours colors vere oversaturated at first. But now I think they fit perfectly. Colors make Your work more fairy - stylized, whih looks here perfect :) And Your style is so undefined. You can make one piece that's very siplified and other very detailed and more realistic looking. I feel like You experimenting much, but that's great.

How much time You spend on one environment painting?

Well, You're just doing great, great things.

Thanks all! Looking at your sketchbooks NOW!

Mannequin - Yep actually I think some stuff is oversaturated on ONE of my monitors, but not on the other, gah! So I just roll with them for now. I've wasted too many days trying "calibration"

New one!
