[theUNKNOWNsketcher]

Bravo! 5 stars! not much of wannabee to me! keep up the great work!

[NickyBeats]

thanks unknownsketcher! i dont know about 5 stars...but i appreciate it!

[AustenFM]

Hahah, pretty cool shit! love the bisected soldiers head, and that screaming face in your most recent update is awesome. great character in your work.

Have you done any in depth anatomy/figure studies? If not, i suggest you download everything from this link and begin studying. http://processjunkie.blogspot.com/20...ooks-ever.html

Try starting with Loomis' 'Fun with a Pencil' and work your way up to George Bridgmans books.

Nice start to your sketchbook, I smell a ton of potential in here.

I look forward to more from you

[theUNKNOWNsketcher]

yeah i know... keep it up ;D

[NickyBeats]

Austen- thank you man, big time for that link!! i dont have very much experience with figure drawing, but i just started my first class for it in school. im pumped, very excited about that. ive always been a self tought artist, and always felt weird drwing people in public places. so my figure drawing is definately more stylised to compensate for that, but hopefully soon ill have some real figure studies to post up on here. thanks again for taking the time to look, and comment!

UnknownSketcher- hehehe. you had me hyped for a second. ps. your sketchbook just rocked my imagination.

[NickyBeats]

doodling while drinking. i wish i was better at drawing when im drinking, i always try to impress random ladies with my artistic skill, but always fail miserably when im out drinking. haha o well, its never really worked anyways...

[NickyBeats]

tonights warm up sketch...

[AustenFM]

Updates are looking good, but lets see some more full body shots! Arms and legs are a must.

Keep drawing!

[idnorant]

you ve got a very cool style and your lines are great
Keep doing like that

[NickyBeats]

Austen- ha, you noticed... i usually dont sketch 'whole' people because im not great at it. ill start trying to though, itll be a good way to force myself to focus on full bodies. (actually since reading your comment, it made me want to make these sillhouettes)

Idnorant- thanks man, i shall do.



trying some sillhouette workouts. i think this is the easiest way to construct the body, seeing it as a sillhouette usually makes mistakes jump out at you.

[NickyBeats]

i forgot to add this one to the last post.

-sketches of Roland Deschain from The Dark Tower. i did these in ball point pen, while looking at the comic.

[NickyBeats]

anyone remember Mimic from x-men like a long ass time ago?? i think they should bring him back, because there are soooo many new mutants he could look completely different. anyways, i wanted to draw him, he pretty much looks the same except for wolvies claws, and colossus' arms.

[NickyBeats]

another random doodle...

ENJOI ! ! !

[NickyBeats]

random character concept. his name is Epoc. (the name is probably taken already, but im no good at thinking up original names) i just wanted to make up a cool looking guy, i ended up writing up this whole backstory for this dude. i didnt even start drawing for like an hour after i thought this dude up. . . although i have to admit, i think hes a pretty cool dude. hes got a bad ass story.

im gonna clean these loose lines up, and paint him up too. but for now, heres just the loosie goosies. . . . .

[NickyBeats]

quick greyscale

[Mikhail Faulken]

Dude, your art is wicked! I like the energy of it.

However, might I suggest studying a bit on body damage? (The dude who gets the top of his head lopped off should have more of a jagged tear, as Wolverive would have to make an L-shaped swipe and then swipe again to take it off) Unless, of course, that's a different guy, but then his head'd be ribbons!

But I love it, still. It's gritty, unique, edgy... everything I love in comic work. Keep it up!

[NickyBeats]

Mikhail Faulken- thanks, im glad you like it! im not 100% sure what you mean about the guys head, why couldnt wolvie just slice through it in one blow?


heres an update on how im painting Epoc-

[mariusz]

[NickyBeats]

[DaStreets]
