Might be useful to someone for sketching landscapes and things, pretty straightforward and quick way of doing perspective grids though not super precise.
- Ignore, much better way down below.
Man your art is stunning. every single one of your pieces a love them, the colors, the composition, everything. I can't wait to see more of your artwork. 
Why not use the polygon tool instead Jes? Like you can do it at a much faster speed with the polygon. Not sure you already knew of that method.
Hah god damnit! That's way better, thanks for the tip ^^
Your artwork is so good, the amount of detail is amazing. I would love to see the process in the making of your art.
Thanks ^^ I have a few process .gifs here https://www.artstation.com/artwork/xB6vm
You have some beautiful colors and environment design, not much to say other than this 
Oh geez, look at those mountains. Even back when you first started you were amazing. Too much talent.
It'll be fun to see how your animation turns out in the end.
Its phenomenal to see the amount of hard work that comes into play from starting where you were and to where you are now. We're speaking about how many hours of practice her on a daily basis since the time you started?
Many hours but it could have been better, have had a few long breaks for painting, you know the everything is shit kind of breaks and you dont paint for a few months. but in the last 2 years-ish, it began to click, now it's just finding the time to actually paint that can be trouble hehe.
Also just letting a painting take the time it need to get done, if it takes a week or something I think its really good for ones process, slow down and enjoy it and listen to a good audio book.
No prob, still looks amazing.
Wow, your backgrounds especially are so lovely 
I hope you find the time to continue/finish this. I would love to see where you take this~ It's always great to see where artists have come from. Looks like you have put in a lot of time and effort ^^
@pixelsnplay Thank you very much ^^ Will finish it at some point for sure, just dont have a timeframe.
Heres the next painting, Wanted a pan across so had to add a bit more on the sides, might need a little more depending on how it works out, and of course some really great drawing over the base 3D render. Don't really have any preliminary sketches for these other than a quick storyboard, so im just making it up as i go.
I am recording the process of painting and will post it here when its done, have not done a painting video in over a year so hopefully it turn out alright.
- added a screenshot with color ^^
I love how all your paintings have a form of glow to them in their environments. It looks amazing!
It's refreshing to see other peoples' process for creating paintings, eagerly awaiting that video.
Are those 3D elements created directly in photoshop, Blender, or some other 3d software?
I know everybody HATES this question, especially when it says so somewhere on the page the comment is asking it. Been scouring your Youtube and here for the answer. Will be embarrassed if it says it somewhere obvious.
Wow, your environments are absolutely beautiful... I love the colors and the way you render light in such a mystical way! I can't wait to see more stuff!!
@stealcase think the video will be done sometime next week ^^
No problem, I use C4D - you can get a free student license if you are in a relevant school(design school), they a pretty fast with sending them out as well. but for just blocking a painting out, i'd recommend sketchup, its really fast and easy. Did this city thing in sketch up a while back, just doodling tho it's rendered in c4d. its good fun just flying around the model and finding a neat little spot to paint over
@sanguine @thunderdumpling thanks guys ^^
Is it possible to do more natural environments-ish in sketch up as well? Like just simple building blocks to build more nature based designs.
