Matthew Lapierre Sketchbook

[mattlap]

I'm pretty new here, and also fairly new to digital painting. I'm going to post some of the stuff I've been doing in the last two months or so, and try to keep new stuff coming in regularly. Any and all critiques are welcome!

I'll start off with a progression from my first digital painting attempts back in May to my most recent in July.

I'm not sure how this attachment system work, so I'm just going to link my images for now. Some of them are too big when I use the BBC code, so I'll just direct link to them.

This was the first thing I did, kind of following a tutorial but adding my own elements as I went.

This was the second, a skull from reference.

Didn't get to do much last night, just some noses and a butchered face.

keeping posts going every day is kind of difficult. Working all day, so I didn't have much time to do much for art, here's some limbs.

Some butts. Kind of want to flesh these out more and see if I can't make them pop a bit.

Blade Runner scene study I've been working on.

haven't been posting much.

I was just working on some anatomy stuff and then started practicing blending.

Keep it up, you are doing quite decent pieces already and you have the focus to do them.
