Love your versatility, it's awesome to see how you can be all loose and gestural then 360, and be all tight and rendered. Fabulous work!

Thanks for the brushes! The realism of added reflection is great and the whole audi painting too, congrats! I was a bit unclear, I have your painting of orange circular sky that leads to eclypse of the sun. I like the space, volume in it. It makes my monitor less flat. If you've got that one in 2560x1600 I would appreciate it.

Keep up the good work!

[paranoiak]

oh my..!!!! man your sketchbook is just awesome, your enviro are crazyy!!!!keep posting ^^

[MacTire]

Marvelous stuff jama!! That Audi piece is spectacular. Great energy in those gestures at the start of the last page, and efficiency of brush strokes.

Thanks for reposting the brushes.

[Helio]

I am absolutely amazed by your sketchbook. I absolutely love the way you manage to convey so much with so few strokes and make it seem so effortless yet so crisp and clear. That's the mark of a true master.

I tip my hat to sir. I shall be following and studying your pieces in order to improve my set skills.

[jama]

[NickyBeats]

[Kikoshi]

@Jama
Thank you for the latest brushes and the reupload if the brushes!
Btw, how do you control the length of such photo graphic look of the chromatic abberation? Multiple Filter Passes?

btw, your sketches and studies are a true inspiration! , specially how easily you get a shape out so clean.
Thank you!

[Jessibelle]

just been through this whole sketchbook... damnn, this stuff is mind blowing seriously... just, pure amazing. and the leaps your (already awesome) work made almost instantly after you joined TAD, well; makes me really wish i could afford it. x)
just wondering, do you take the online classes or the irl ones?
keep inspiring dude, awesome stuff.

[Yor]

[mrd33ds]

love the studies.

AND THE AUDI PIC IS AMAZING!

[Geuse]

Thanks alot for the brushes jama
Surely I know it's not about the brushes, but I like the style you get with those and they seem so nice to paint with.

Thanks!

Edit: Oh eh. How do you open the .tpl-file? I guess it's for paintshop pro, and I was after the photoshop equivalent brushes.
Thanks.

[Metal Fingers]

shit yeah jama! lovely work my friend.

[jama]

Guys, thank you a lot for your feedback!

@Kikoshi, i`m not sure if i got your question properly,
but i use only lens correction filter to get proper chromatic abberation.

@The7Artist7, man thank you))

@Jessibelle, thanks!
i am taking only online classes.

@Geuse, just drag and drop .tpl file to photoshop..btw..it is for CS5 only.
open window>tool presets...and you will see them there!


Well,
second semester is almost over at TAD.
it was a wondeful semester..i `ve learned tons of new things..

this week we had Jeremy Cranford from Blizzard...
he reviewed our card sketches done for World of Warcraft trading cards.
Here is the piece that i`ve done...

Also we did work a lot on anatomy stuff... i`m far from being perfect..but i`m doing my best))
