Hey all. I really like this community. I'll be posting my work and progress now instead of just lurking. Always feel free to critique my stuff, in fact... I encourage it!
More fundamental practice. Working on understanding forms and lighting.
Nice studies! It's just a suggestion, but maybe you could make the rendering a bit smoother with less visible brushstrokes, especially on smooth surfaces like the sphere for example.
Otherwise, good job and keep it up!
@cedricgo Hmmm, good point, thanks. I really like painterly approaches and want to avoid that airbrushed look, but I agree that pushing brush strokes too much is not the right answer. I'll try for a smoother balance.
I'm sure there are a lot of things wrong with it, but I've stared at it for too long, so I'll throw it up and keep moving forward. Hopefully come back at it with fresh eyes in a few days of not looking at it. Feedback welcome. Have a good day
WIP for a propaganda room. Feedback welcome. I'll go back to the characters and the building renderings soon. Just need to keep varying it up to stay motivated.
Another study and some character Sketches. Feedback welcome.
I've gotten some nice feedback on this piece so I will go back and work on it some more. For now I wanted to show the WIP and also see if you guys had any critique you wanted to share. Have a good one
Hiya!Your latest piece is coming along nicely ^_^As for feedback, I think you can add a tad more hue/color contrast on the parts of the house you want to make your focal point(s). And I think adding some greenery (moss, small bushes or smth along those lines) will give it a bit more 'life'. Looking up real life refs of mines and houses in these kinds of areas will increase your visual library, so i deff suggest doing that and see what other elements you can tweak/improve (:
@soluxos SUCH a good idea with the greenery. I will try that out as well as look up more ref. Thanks!
Druid Character Design + Study
Finishing up corrections to the house and character I recently added, but in the meantime here are some scifi buildings I sketched out. I've only had time for a first pass, so I'm missing a lot of detail. I tried to get the major forms in there though.
Hand studies in between character rendering practice. Buildings are still in progress as well. Taking the feedback I got from here and from friends and redoing.
Character Study
More studying. Should be finishing up some characters that I can post by tomorrow. Pushing to have them done by then Still working on the buildings but it's a bear of a project ^^
Some more sketches from today. Not very happy with these and would consider them a failure. Was trying to find a way to optimize rendering process, but they still took too long for not a great result. Oh well, I'll have to analyze what I can out of it and try better next time.
just some hands
suppp dudes. Still Working on hands, my nemesis.
Portrait study. I did the study first, then tried from memory, then took notes and corrected based on those notes. Learned a lot and won't make the same mistakes hopefully. Really embarrassing to do but everyone says it's good to fail as long as you learn from it soooooo
hey dudes. Still studying people. Trying to do portrait studies and then immediately turning off reference and trying to recreate the image/close to the image (like if I rotate the head a bit or change face a bit it's alright as long as I do good proportions and try to apply the lighting correctly). Then I fix whatever I screwed up and try to find out why I screwed up so much -_-
