i can only repeat kishi's sentecte about the chance running into your works! awesome environments!
a bit of upgrade on the inhabitants would make it perfect :-)

Your digital and line quality is something to behold

[Holland]

[Holland]

Thanks Cesar!

[Ricardo Robles]

Love what i see here, great mood in the environments and very interesting variations in your designs. Your brushwork has evolved nicely!

[Holland]

Thanks Ricardo

[Nemome]

Yeah! Some ass kicking concepts in here!
Nice work dude!
Do you also use some sort of copic markers for doing sometimes without Pc ?

Greetings, Silwynar

Awesome work dude! A friend of mine was looking at your sketchbook today and was like, "this dude's work is sweet", and then i realized you posted in my sketchbook. I dig your thumbnail designs, both landscapes and machinery. Keep it going!

[BHCS]

Amazing sketchbook! love your thumbnail sketches and ship designs. Also how was work experience with Disney?!

Thanks for looking at my sketchbook also, I feel proud to have great artists approving of my work

[LAL]

hey bro, I real like your mechanical concept,For me it is a difficult thing...study from you bro,keep up ,I want too see more great stuff.

[jskotte]

Really nice sketchbook. Very nice vibrant color. And very nice vehicle/robot thingy designs.

[randazzo]

Man these are awesome. Your awesome stuff is inspiring me to start environment painting in Photoshop! You deserve 5 massive stars.
I have a question though: like on your ship designs, how do you keep the lines straight? Practice, or is there a way in Photoshop to do it? I've got CS2 here at home.

[Windmaker]

Uuupdaaateeee... ! And share more of your knowledge with us, oh wise one. The tips you share here and in your DA gallery are much appreciated Also, your designs are great. And your work in general.
Thanks for the inspiration!

[mike butkus]

Great work!!

[Suncut]

I adore the brushwork on your environmental sketches, really makes me kick myself for not trying harder. Your concepts are really fascinating as well.

[Mr.Thorne]

Amazing work man.

[Holland]

Hello! Sorry for the less than interesting update but this is the only personal work i've done in the last few weeks since commissions are eating most of my time.

Silwynar- yes i use copic or prismacolor markers for a lot of my sketch work. I have loads to upload when i buy a scanner
Jasper- Thanks man!
BHCS- Thanks! DIS was one of the best years evuurrrrrr. I got to see loads of concept work for Tron before anyone else which was like an early christmas Plus it really helped my artwork.
LAL- thanks
jskotte- thanks dude
randazzo- Thanks dude! Photoshop top tip; hold down shift or just watch hours and hours of Feng Zhu gnomon dvds when you where 17
Windwaker- Thanks! Glad you find the tips useful
Suncut- Thank you
Mr. Thorne- Thanks!

Right, i really need to finish my submission since i want to submit two designs for the EVE contest. I thought i would do something a bit conventional for the EVE universe and something which i would love to see in the game.
This is the Samalah. It's a huge derelict (1700m) that has been salvaged and repurposed by pirates as a carrier.

I'm a bit obsessed with derelicts

I hope to have the beauty shot and the orthographic views done tomorrow

[wasabi89]

Really great job bro !

Love the space machine and the armor designs !
Keep inspiring bro !

cheers

[ole-x]

Hey Holland, this is really, really cool stuff..... Thank you for posting!!!!
Awesome!

[Ardescoere]

Hi Dave,

Looking forward to seeing more. Your environments were actually one of the first sketchbooks I browsed on CA when I signed up so I've been watching and not sure why I haven't commented until now.

Keep it coming!
