[Lav]

cool! i personally really like how you did the eyes, eyebrows and hair. It's good how you can really see the different type of textures, i like it a lot

[Loathsome]

Lav: Thanks. Haha yeah I wanted to goof around with textures for once Haven't done anything like that in a loooong while.

[Loathsome]

Slightly unserious update I guess.. Today I just had a paint chat with my friends in an oekaki.. it was fun. I'm sure you can see that we did.

Started off pretty serious and ended up a mess when my friend joined in and we started drawing penises and stuff.


Then he went to eat dinner and it got calmer...


...and then he came back


I don't know


"I'm going now bye" And then I logged off


The end.

I like the study in post # 96, but some things look a little flat, like the book, it might be the angle you painted from though and i'm diggin the creature design, very good use of custom brushes there

[Loathsome]

miycko: Yeah I remember that I was struggling with that when I did it. Thanks for checking by again I appreciate it

Pyro from TF2
I know it's not perfectly rendered by any means but it's done in a paintchat. It was fun to do even though I'm not a TF2 fan. It was a themed thing we did.



I'm battling with a lot of stuff right now so I'm sorry for the lack of posting ): I've also been sick.

[Lav]

i like the pyro paint i think your digital paints in general are really improving
Get better soon tho!

[Loathsome]

Thank you Lav



Here's a step by step of a concept of a hero figure. I'll be doing the usual group; the hero, the love interest, the wise man, the evil man.

And if you want me to do more step by steps, please tell me.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Description of the Step by Step:



1. I start off very rough, this isn't the earliest stage but on this stage I try to get the pose as good as possible, getting the flow and energy going. I also add some tone to the design so I know where it's going.

2. This is basically just a cleaned up lineart part where I later on add the same tone as in the previous step and some shadow. The previous loose sketch is put on low opacity as I add these lines, that way I don't loose the tone too much either.

3. Tone and shadow is added on this step. I play around a lot with the design on this step, but I liked the design so I didn't change too much.

4. I decided to go back to the other headband. I added the final details at this final step. There are a few things I liked more in the line art stage which I'll probably tweak when I line the characters up.

[miycko]

my pleasure dude That Pyro looks cool man i agree with lav, you really are improving and i'm diggin the hero figure it's nice to see how other artists go about painting so please do post more step by steps

[Loathsome]

Miycko: I'll try to, I keep forgetting to do it

Work in progress

Trevligt att se dina grejer, börjar få fart på photoshop.
Haparanda, det är långt upp det. Kommer från Örnsköldsvik, så jag hade bara halva sverige att ta mig igenom.

Så hur kommer det sig att du ska flytta till Göteborg, studier någonstans?

[Loathsome]

Sorry for updating my thread without any art, I always feel guilty when I do this..

[Loathsome]

"Crowboy: Symphony of Death"

Been working on this for a few days..

There's actually a story behind this character as well... but I don't want to post up too much about that since I'd love to make this a feature movie. Nothing is impossible, right? But yeah I'll post more about that later I guess. For now I want to keep it to myself since I'm developing it.

But he controls the crows. And crows are a symbol of death.

[Lav]

really grats on that paint man, it looks fantastic!
i kinda first thought it was a girl tho in the first wips, reminded me a bit of the CoW morrigan thingy, but the way you painted his shirt hints that it isn't a woman, nice job!

[Loathsome]

Lav: Thanks I appreciate it And good thing I edited the clothing too lol.

Hör av dig när du flyttar ner, skulle vara trevligt att få se ännu en norrlänning här nere.

Lycka till med måleriet.

[Fiddzy]

Hay, cheers for stopping back at my SB.

Your digital rendering skills are looking great. Its also nice to see that you are also continuing with anatomy study sketches.

I really like that Komodo Dragonoid creature you did in post #97, particularly the rendering of the head and its skin textures.

Good work.

[Loathsome]

Pencilator: Alright! Blir säkert kul
Fiddzy; sure thing man, thanks for stopping by and stuff too

this is an still life from yesterday..
The sun went down before I got to finish it.. next time I'll use lamps lol

[Loathsome]
