[Ramalooke]

Your last environment is pretty good. but I’m a noob, everything looks good for me xD well, I’m not feeling good enough to give you any advices or critique, so I'll say only 'good work and keep posting! '

Btw. you are doing your envoiriments form photos or prehaps you are going with your notebook outside and paint? ;>

[teapo]

@lasahido: here's some more :3

@qlotzan: thx qlotz. no, they are studies

[teapo]

@Sirkenneth: haha thanks sirk xD that made me laugh :3

@qlotzan: ty qlotz will do!

late night study from a photo and I'm out of it at the moment... I seriously need to get back to colors but values are always good to do :U this took about an 0.50m-1.00hr (yeah i'm slow) also-- need to focus on the edges w/e.. tired! ugh

[ryan mcshane]

dont say your slow, ever

[LtPlissken]

Scary head bust.
Reminds me on Fred Krueger when he
was in a big worm shape, but you should not
have put that in front of his eyes, cause he
will not see, and will hit a lantern.
1 hour for this last naked female
value study is not too much, you are not
slow, being slow is nothing bad I think, do
not worry about that, not yet.

[raminafshari]

Awesome drawings in post #666 , i think you might want to change the size of your second picture in that post . very cool sketch book .

[teapo]

@ryanoir: okay i'm fast. LOL jkjk thx buddy :3

@LtPlissken: haha i don't remember freddy krueger in a worm shape though i just googled it and now i see what u mean xD. i suppose you're right-- speed isn't everything. taking my sweet time ^^

@raminafshari: thx ramin~ yeah i probably should resize that char. sheet

@LtPlissken: lololol plissken D: mel gibson is actually pretty scary when he's drunk. ever listen to those phone convos he had with his wife/gf? xD

@ryanoir: okok i will try to do one sometime this week, ye? ^^


i'm still experimenting with approaching color with the white background (which is difficult), some perspective doodle, 30 sec. gestures from this morning (i want to improve with gestures-- as you can see, they still look like shit as they did some pages back when i was doing them), and a 1.5 hr still life which i can still push some more, but i doubt i will finish this one. it was done with my laptop so the colors look way different on my desktop *sorry* i need to figure out if my laptop's monitor is calibrated with photoshop and saving images for web.

[ryan mcshane]

yay yay yay, awesome update!
nice amount of work youve got here brah
get some reference of a master/another artist and try to pick similar skin tones from them, dont use eye dropper cause that wont teach you.. sooo get some sargent/repin or liek craig mullins or jaime jones and try and get similar skin colors to that, meaning for this bro.

[kiwigarbage]

Yes! There are lines that start to define weight and form in your newest gestures. Do that more!

Oh, and watch your bellybutton placement. I notice you sometimes do weird stuff with it, especially noticeable in the suggestive lass in #683

[cuptow555]

Did I see some Francois Sagat in some of those sketches?!



AMAZING stuff! Keep it up
