Ahh cool that youve seen the mag haha I live in Blackpool now. crappier place to be honest Thanks man!

[Mohzart]

Its been some time since I posted or actually draw anything...its been a long summer!

Anyway with this update I include a design of a character for a japanese styled game competition. But as everytime I end up with choices of some sorts. SO CRITS AND SUGGESTIONS ARE VERY VERY WELCOME!!!

(Hyung-Tae Kim heavily influenced this character design)






Trying out different accents with the lower clothing.

[cout<mecha]

This is a nice character and style but I think the posing could be better. As for the clothing I think probably image 2 is better for now.

[Mohzart]

Thanks Cout.

Here's some stuff I've been working on.

[Sulphur]

That Optimus Prime looks ssiiiccckk!

[KingElvis]

yours is one of those badass threads that I cant leave, once I started watching...really cool stuff in here. I like those costume designs a lot, they give me this feeling of anime videogames, and I mean the cool ones :-)
Congrats for being published in ImagineFX. That sure is an achievement!

[Mohzart]

Sulphur - Thanks worked hard on him for weeks!
KingElvis - Thank you so much for stopping by! and I'm glad you like my thread Thanks again.

Update on finished puppet master.

[Mohzart]

More conceptual stuff. Just a quick WIP for a paladin type character

[1 million ponies]

Nice stuff. Great balance of strokes and readability. Nice enviros, too.

[APW]

I have an idea! there should be a "Best Sketchbook of the Year" competition! i think this would qualify

[zeo-x]

dude, your corrupted core optimus prime is friggin sweet. awesome stuff man!

[Ian Barker]

Your characters are looking really tight. Both pretty well drawn and designed! My big criticism for now would probably be that most of these are based on generic settings. Pretty much everyone's portfolio has demons, knights, anti-heroes in hoodies and robo-dudes. I'd be interested if there are things that you come up with that are more unique.

[Mohzart]

1 million ponies - Thanks
APW - Hahaha That would be cool
zeo-x - Thanks man! Theyre undergoing a re-selection of the top 20 2d artists on GA, hopefully I'll get it this time
Liffey - I realised that I am using generic themes...These are mostly what clients want, because it's what I'm good at. But I'd love to try new things! I will search

[Mohzart]

another quick update

[Mohzart]

Random sketching

[Aksel Ludvigsen]

Awesome sketchbook, man. I really love your style! The last paladin concept was great.

And is that a LuVisi-filter you're using on those last sketches?

Thanks man! lol whats a LuVisi-Filter? I know who Luvisi is, he's so cool and very inspiring.

[Mohzart]

OK, sorry for not posting as regular as I have done. Been out of it for a while and paint whenever a competition is on only...

But anyway, here's what I've been working on in the past couple of months!

I've been working on the Pre-Dominance War 5 competition.











And here I'm messing around with the COW concepts for round#199.

[Mohzart]

[RBeek]

Yup.. your stuff is definatly cool!

[Mohzart]

Thanks RBeek

AAAAAnd finished with my first C.O.W concept. ONTO A NEW ONE!!!!!!!

[Aksel Ludvigsen]

Thanks man! lol whats a LuVisi-Filter? I know who Luvisi is, he's so cool and very inspiring.

Your stuff is awesome, that's just how it is. A LuVisi-filter is just a grain filter that he uses, here's the tutorial he put up about it. Looks like you're using a similar kind of filter.

Wooo Dan Luvisi is copying me! XD Yeah that's an awesome filter for finishing touches, but only in fair doses! I also use the sharp filter a tiny bit to boost it up for presentational purposes. Thanks alot Appreciate it.

[BlackDelphin]

Really awesome concepts! The first #319 ones have nice flow!
Your painting style and colour choice in a few cases remind me of matt dixon's.


Congrats on finishing your first COW!
It's awesome, but I think the castle distracts a lot from the main subject.
It has a lots of details, and is so clear, even though it is so far away..

Keep up the wonderful work in here

[hücumkedi]

wow! stunning colors and characters

[Mohzart]

BlackDelphin - Better now? And thanks alot for pointing me to Matt Dixon! Awesome find for me!

hücumkedi - Thanks



Another Concept.... lol DONT JUDGE ME I DONT KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING!!! I'm just outside my comfort zone right now.

[Mohzart]

FINAL. cant be bothered finishing this guy.

[CesarNostradamus]

Your work is Delicious

[Tom Fenton]

Ive got a question for ya Mohzart, when you were at the start of this sketchbook what work did you do, and research to help develop your costume design?
