Nobody has ever found a unicorn. Details inside!

[Jakers]

You've got some nice skills bud - I especially like the feel of the last 2 little environments. The values are awesome and they have a painterly look to them. Are these straight from reference...modified looking at the reference for a starting point? I practice a lot of landscapes but I'm not good with color, so it would be nice if you stopped by one day Ill be watching

[Shadow Stalker]

Well, we all hope you feel better. You might not be religious, and I don't know what you are going through, but I'm praying for you man.

Excellent updates, love the portrait and the landscapes are very "emotional". Not to be confused with Fall Out Boy.

[tobbA]

Well... That's not what I meant. Just kidding a little... ^^ But if you want it to be grammatically correct it should be 'I hörde there's a flicka who lives under världen'. You don't really need 'the' because the 'en' at the end of världen would be the same thing as 'the' in Swedish 'Hördes' also means 'was heard'

wookiedabo- Thanks, I am working hard to figure them out.

courtyard- Good, you deserve them. I would say that painting is exactly like my real life watercolors, so I am pleased.

sketcheth- Thank you, I hope it is interesting. I am happy that people are into it.

Noro- Thanks Noro, I am stalking you too.

dwardo- I have given away my secrets, the border helps clean them even though I can't draw straight lines.

Jakers- Thanks, some are kind of referenced and some are made up. I like to control my colors though, low saturated blues, greens and purples. I will check out your book, I think I have a few ideas that might help.

Shadow Stalker- Thanks man, I appreciate that. I hope it works. The only Fallout boy I know is searching for the water chip.

tobbA- Haha, "I was heard there's a girl who lives under the the world."


The Rhyth

"Throughout the reign of the Talurian Empire in the West- sightings of the Rhyth were almost unheard of. However, in the time since the Occupation was overcome and the invaders pushed into the sea, a small number of Rhyth, those curious or possessed of wanderlust, have trickled back into the Westlands.

Rhyth have dark brown skin, blue eyes and black or white hair. (White hair is common in young as well as old amongst Rhyth)"

[Collywobbles]

Somebody said that this guy looked like a Bond villain, so I did this.



A WIP creature that I need to work on.



Just a quick anatomy page from this afternoon as I am a little rusty I guess.

[Collywobbles]

A couple of quick black and white studies/sketches. The second one might turn into something good I think. I will not give up.

[Nele Klumpe]

Oh wow, you rock so much! diggin this anatomy page and your portraits!

[Jason Ross]

Wow Collywobbles, these updates are incredible. They look effortless from your hand, like you actually had fun painting these...damn you! Are those textures created in photoshop or do you scan in some traditional textures?

[Gib]

Your b&w portraits and linework are great. Also like the mood in your landscapes. Don't know, but if you think you are better with watercolors just use watercolors?! I would like to see some.

[Kan Muftić]

fuckin brilliant!

[MacTire]

Incredible stuff collywob, damn, you make it look so easy!!
Awesome studies and study based sketches, really liking your use of the digi-paint!!
Keep up the great work!!

[GunTrouver]

Awesome! I love it all! Esp. the anatomy stuff and your protraits. Every face has a great character and expression. Keep it up

[AphexTweak]

Randomly came across you book and took a look around. Really nice work in here. Enjoyed all of your figure work. Nice loose and expressive lines.

The Stuff you've been experimenting with Alchemy has come out really well too.

Thanks for sharing.

[Shadow Stalker]

Oh, nice update! Love it! And I deem you my official mentor.

:>

[courtyard]

I definitely agree about the second one--looking forward to how she develops. Hope you're feeling ok...

[Yanko]

ton art est tres beau, je le trouve touchant aussi, est ce fait numerique??? puis tes modelles de 3D son bien fait pour des jeu video.... bon travaille!!!!

[dU5K]

Cool stuff man. I'm glad i came back to visit your sketchbook.. ill be biting my nails until you update again. i cant wait!

[luness]

Very inspiring sketchbook. I've been kinda low in the mood department but these six pages of pure goodness, talent, skills, you name it, have been good to my soul, so thanks so much for posting. Wonderful work!!!

Cheers!

[Collywobbles]

Im in secondary school and everytime in P.E. i got detention for taking too long to get changed,
so I now go outside without my shoes on, and put them on outside to avoid getting into trouble,
BUT NOW THE KIDS MAKE FUN OF ME, TELLING ME TO PUT MY SHOES ON QUIKER,
SAYING THAT MY FEET STINK,
WHEN IM CLOSER TO ME FEET THAN THEY ARE AND I CANT SMELL A THING!

[courtyard]

lmao...stellar update. That enviro is gorgeous! I have a feeling sheepish-looking Edgar might be responsible for the quote.

[Shadow Stalker]

Beast, dude. Beast. Keep them coming! Need more! Ha.

[Suira]

Putain , mais c'est enorme ce qu'y a dans ton SB, j'adore tes dessins.J'adore vraiment. Je sais plus quoi dire... ENORME ^^

[Collywobbles]

AvisNocturna- Thanks a lot man.

Jason Ross- Usually they are just a combination of texture brushes and concret photos or something, with trial and error layer modes.

Gib- Thanks, I am trying to improve my digital skills for work. As soon as I fix my scanner I will post some watercolours.

Chupacabra- Fuckin thanks!

MacTire- Thanks, I will try.

GunTrouver- Thank you, I really like people's faces.

AphexTweak- I appreciate that, I wish i could spend more time in Alchemy, there are so many options.

Shadow Stalker- Thanks man, I don't think I am really qualified though.

courtyard- Thank you as always. I am screwed up but I am trying to keep this thing going.
Haha, Edgar does look silly like that, I was too lazy to draw the whole thing.

Yanko- Thanks. I don't speak French very well but I appreciate that.

dU5K- Thanks dude. Sorry it takes so long, I am having some issues.

luness- Thank you Luness, I am low in that department as well.

Collywobbles- You are awesome!

Suira- Thanks, I must learn more French.


A WIP battle scene for SOW. These are a race of Germanic/Norse types, lots of facial hair which is fine by me.

[zweiDee]

[Pawl]

WowoOWOowoWOOwoowOWoOWoWoWooOWoOWooWoOW. amazing work. I admire your patience, i find it difficult to draw from casts or pictures for a super long time, even though i have found i learn quite a lot when i do that. youre doodles are amazing, faces, environments, gah...great awesome stuff. cant wait to see moar. MOAR

[Shadow Stalker]

Wow... I almost cried when I saw this one. And I think you're more than qualified.

[vardoburrito]

bahahaha ... self ass-pats ... that's great ...
update Mr Wobbles.

And I still don't get it.
Why are you trying to avoid lining?
For a more painterly approach? Obviously right, or am I missing something?

Well, fi you ask me, all the moods of these I really dig.
And yes to showing the process.
I'm always down for that, or better yet, livestream.com it. [If you've not done so, and are interested. ] I could even make the account for you just to save you the hassle.
Capish!

[Collywobbles]

Thanks people. A couple of sketches/WIP and a value study. I am trying some new brushes and techniques digitally.

[Shadow Stalker]

God man... I would love to learn how you did that armor. You are so talented man.

[theUNKNOWNsketcher]

OMG! Lovely SB!!! Thank You!
