got a new job...

[P]

Hey kasblue, portraits looks nice on first two, somethings odd about that figure though - i guess u need to workout with drawing a torso a bit more. I'm a bit envy about ur shading skills, its great. Post more! Good luck!

[kasblue]

thank you pijus!! yeah, ur right. i've been working on anatomy now and i hope to improve. i'll post some of those sketches as well. the problem is that i dont have any teacher here, i just learn from the great artist here on CONCEPTART.org
you should see my shading skills before i joined here... hahaha... awful and horrible!!!

[P]

I dont have a human drawing teacher either, its all in the books or ca.org, well its not a problem to me.

[kasblue]

I was just checkin out ur sketchbook... and its just given me a huge inspirational boost!!! the way uv improved is magnificent!!! awesome work pijus!

[kasblue]

working over it in photoshop.

[Stevan]

Nice work. You are good in transfering what you see on paper, just work a little bit on anatomy and of course : draw, draw .....

[kasblue]

thank you stevan. yes, definitely the anatomy. i'm trying. thanks again for stoppin by!!!

here's a study of David's head, by the great master Michelangelo!

[kasblue]

i'v been trying to work on anatomy too...

[kasblue]

aaand... hereee we go...

[kasblue]

i'm working on more... i'l upload them later... learning... i'm getting alot of help from Alwyn Crawshaw's 'ultimate painting course'. this book has taught me tons of stuff, but i'v got a loooong way to go.

[J.Hansen]

i really like your anatomy studies. well done. where do you get your reference from?

[kasblue]

love the pastels

[kasblue]

thanks HAnsen. i'v got a book called 'Body parts' by Simon Jennings published by 'North Light Books'. it doesnt have very clear or big pictures as its a small book but still its very useful.

[kasblue]

just a few... for the moment

[kasblue]

the master... bernini

[kasblue]

i'v just started doing oil paintings. they are definitely not as easy as i thought they would be. but they are sure loads of fun!! i'm trying to learn their application through books. and another watercolor plus a rough study of Michealangelo's pieta.

[kasblue]

a study of drapery. just a drawing of a cloth on my chair. the other is the first enviornmental painting i'v ever done. it was a black and white picture. i did the colors from my own memory. i think i should have used refrences

[kasblue]

i know that i'v just done very little of concept art in my forum, but i hope once i get better at drawing and coloring, i'll start it. just a few very quick sketches i did while waiting for my 3d rendering to finish in maya.
thank you!

[kasblue]
