His sketchbook
#1



So first time posting here on Crimson Daggers. I decided to show study,sketch,render in this conan image.

If i count back it must been 3 months seens i started using photoshop. Been/still is into traditional way of art before, the pen, charcoal, oil and etc.

Oh and BEER' with my english, it is just my second language.

Anyway, the conan is a study ca 1 hour. Then i did the monster below, ca 15 min. then third the close up of the monster, took ca 15 min. Thats my intuition at least of the time limit. Panties 1 minute hahaha.

Well hope you enjoyed my first post and I hope to blabla enjoy your stuff ass-well.




Here is another conan study. If you guys have any Photoshop advise to give me, that I can use to do to make 'a better picture', setting for my brushes, or other things that helps to reach a finish painting. What do you guys do?

Hi everyone! So YES, im doing alot of Conan studies. Cause its a nice concept and has alot of sweet colors i think.

Well I need help. My goal is to make tight nice rendered finished paintings.
Is there anything you guys can teach me about Photoshop that is so new for me, functions or settings. That would make it easier for me to work.

I know what it takes for a finished drawing. But fack, I have hard do make it to the end and hard to execute them. What do you guys do? whats your way?

On the guy with the horse, I thought about ''block in'' the drawing, while i was applying color.

Well anyway, lets do some art!

Here is a black and white conan made of a color ref conan.

Pushed myself with this one, man I really wanted to stop at a point, its nice to get over that.
Em. Any way, I know there is more shit i can do on this one, much much more. And I will! Then I will do the colors ontop.
But I want to do another study now, or sketch some shit. Then go back to this picture, and look for more mistakes.

I like the process i did at least, big shape, then line drawing on top, etc. Thanks for looking guys!

My main pointer is watch your edges, you have nice soft transitions on the skin between your values but your edges are fuzzy. Keep going!

Okay! Got a couple of conan studies. That lead to a self-portrait in black and white, from a color photo.

The portrait study took 4.5 hours. Pretty good for me, and this is the best portrait of myself i ever made. but.. FUCK, i hate the fuzzy finish.

Beside this i been working on my portfolio. I need $ and I hate my barista job, that waste my time.. well I have 2 drawings done for the portfolio. Got a toad dragon fighting a knight. and a barbarian.

Any one have any tips on portfolios? or can link me too such.
