Sorry for the absence..

Leo thanks for your words, and for the writing tips(i´m a disaster with the english) now is written well... now i´m working a lot and got little time for my drawings, but i´m doing a few things for my book/portfolio, like this one.

Lord regenschirm thank you very much!

Vinay vikram singh thanks, color & values are a difficult things, hope you will control it!

Lateman thanks for checking!

Some updates.

**Ricardo Robles** · January 28th, 2009, 04:52 PM

Some about character design

**Ricardo Robles** · January 31st, 2009, 01:37 PM

More about this wip.

**jedininjaman** · January 31st, 2009, 02:08 PM

cool stuff and nice detail but I think you could improve a lot by limiting your palette to a few select colors rather than just going wild

look at coz work here see how he can get such a vivid painting with less detail and less colors
sometimes less is more

but ya keep it up man

Amazing work, I am jealous of your Water Color skill.
Plus every Fantasy illustration is more inspiration.

**Ricardo Robles** · February 1st, 2009, 06:22 PM

Hey Jedi this coz work is so good! this is a good advice, now i´m trying to investigate colors and yes, I go wild

Thanks man.

Thank you very much Zeus12!!

**Ricardo Robles** · February 4th, 2009, 07:59 AM

More enviro practice.

**fantasyartist** · February 4th, 2009, 08:07 AM

Such nice colors in that last painting man. You kept it limited right? Keep up the crazy work!

**Jasper Flick** · February 4th, 2009, 09:09 AM

Yes, the last one is nicely unified! Blue, yellow, and a touch of orange.

**nOKa** · February 4th, 2009, 10:09 AM

very nice sketchbook...

**Shard** · February 4th, 2009, 12:08 PM

really like that last one dude!! feels like some kind of magic have been taking place in there..

**Ricardo Robles** · February 7th, 2009, 10:08 AM

Thanks everybody!

My intention was to suggest a central explosion from the book (a lot of time ago) overturning the racks and later everything remained like that, though the magic of the book still continues in the place.

It seems that I did not achieve it, all people says that simply they see an untid, destroyed room. I will have to improve it.

Some character designs.

**Merlkir** · February 8th, 2009, 08:52 AM

Nice SB! Lots of cool ideas and I just love your watercolors.

**Ricardo Robles** · February 9th, 2009, 05:53 PM

Thank you very much Melkir! I,m happy you like it!

**JailHouseRock2** · February 9th, 2009, 06:30 PM

matt

**Ricardo Robles** · February 10th, 2009, 10:02 AM

Hello people!
Jailhouserock2 thanks, youre true, I´m just investigating colors and don´t control them too much, sometimes I got extreme by both sides, step by step i´ll get more ballanced. I like strong colors, and I´m trying to incorporate rich combinations without make the ilustration more confused.
Lateman hahahaha thanks man!

**sandeepbarot** · February 10th, 2009, 01:57 PM

amazing!

**Ricardo Robles** · February 11th, 2009, 04:51 AM

**Ricardo Robles** · February 11th, 2009, 08:54 AM

**Ricardo Robles** · February 12th, 2009, 09:39 AM

update

**Ricardo Robles** · February 13th, 2009, 08:33 AM

New update: tribute to Cancerberus, I named this "The path keeper"
Is still in progress.

**Shard** · February 13th, 2009, 12:32 PM

lots of potential in this last one!! I like the strong reds make it for a very dramatic picture..maybe add some blues or cool it down a bit more closer to the warriors for even more contrast!
cool stuff looking forward to see the progress!

**Jasper Flick** · February 13th, 2009, 03:05 PM

It's a cool picture, but I have trouble focusing because the subjects blend into the background and each other. The saturation and lightness is rather uniform, and local hues are also close together.

**Quike Garcia** · February 18th, 2009, 12:01 PM

Me encanta tu trabajo de acuarelas.. en serio

Este sketchbook es genial

**Ricardo Robles** · February 18th, 2009, 04:06 PM

Hello guys
Shardana thank you i´m on it!
Jaspeflick I see something like you´re saying.. there´s a void between the characters and the background calls too much the attention in this place. I will see how to make it better.
Quiquenobi gracias por pasarte, tú tienes un buen nivel también, según he visto. Un placer tenerte por aquí.
Some 30 min speedpaint.

**Ricardo Robles** · February 22nd, 2009, 07:11 AM

Hello guys now i´m trying with zbrush, is amazing. Very good sensations within, it´s difficult but i´m on it. This is my first model, after doing some tutorials. It suposed to be an ancient mayan sorcerer, but the crown-helmet isn´t done yet. Hope you like it.

**Ricardo Robles** · February 24th, 2009, 03:50 PM

Some of an axtraterrestrial series I will post soon in finally finished room. Crits & coms are always welcome.

**Jasper Flick** · February 24th, 2009, 05:57 PM

I have trouble interpreting the big thing. I cannot tell for sure if it's one big thing or seperate objects. Basically I have no clue what I'm looking at, is it a big alien or something sitting on a throne?

**Ricardo Robles** · February 26th, 2009, 08:58 AM

Ahhh... NOW you´re opening your mind

just try to imaginate how an alien can be. It is not necessary that it is a recognizable figure, in fact it is necessary that it is not anything recognizable, and the whole series is raised equally. You know what? I am fed up with doing green little things with antennas and this time am going to bet for a really strange and unknown stuff, This is the spirit that I want to show.By other side, technically in painting I have too much to learn.
Here you have a more complete version and other different thing, a dark shaman.
