Darkos Darkroom 02/20

**darkos** · December 23rd, 2008, 08:01 AM

I decided to start a new SB for 2009.
Cheers guys!

**meticulous** · December 23rd, 2008, 09:21 AM

Great stuff here! Keep em coming!
*are you using Photoshop or Painter IX? (or are some of these traditional canvas?) [the texture on "margo" made me wonder

)
Again, great submits - looking forward to more! Great job!

Really nice work. I especially like the first one, and the 3rd from last. One thing that I'd say as a crit is to maybe throw in a few sharp lines in, as some of the pieces are pretty blurry. A quick sharp line on the nose or a nice solid facial outline would really focus the eye I think. Either way nice work and may your new SB grow 20 pages long!

meticulous > thanks. I'm using Photoshop mostly but I throw some scanned texture sometimes.

dfacto > thanks for the crits man. Yeah I'm struggling to find a good balance for the edges.

Niice. You sure know how to use your brushes, like the colour palettes too.

**voxelfog** · December 24th, 2008, 12:25 PM

wow, stunning work.
I love how much you capture with relatively few brush strokes. You know just what to details to leave to the viewer's imagination. Awesome.

**donalfall** · December 24th, 2008, 01:01 PM

very nice. Good way to start out for 2009.

Keep them coming!

**Dragonspit** · December 24th, 2008, 01:18 PM

Besides the great painterly feel to these, I really like your lighting ambience in all most all of them. I have been strugglin with that, and to see it done well makes me jealous. nice stuff.

**ashess** · December 24th, 2008, 01:47 PM

Smoothly done portraiture, I like the woman holding her breast with her arm the most; it speaks freedom through her body language and her eyes.

Keep doing you

That robot looks hot ^^

You have a very nice style, but you tend to be just a tad too blurry at times.

Still, your stuff is very inspirational

keep it up :p

**azekariel** · January 8th, 2009, 06:17 PM
