Great works! I really like the artwork from you first post and the landscape! I'm really curious to see more of your work, keep posting!

Thanks also for commenting on my sketchbook, I really appreciate it!

**Bosatsu** · February 13th, 2010, 04:55 PM

Great stuff Kambei! I really like the style you used for the monkey rendering in #3. You should definitely post more of those.

Also love the wip in #16. Looking foward to seeing her finished! Those tattoos seem like it's gonna be a pain to colour

**Kambei Shimada** · March 21st, 2010, 05:16 PM

Kingkostas, Cyprinus and Bosatsu. - Thank you guys!

Ok been a while but i have been busy, will be posting more stuff later this week.

Here's a quick sketch i've been working on..

**Kambei Shimada** · March 24th, 2010, 05:29 PM

Ok here's a sci-fi enviro i'm working on..

Still ca'nt decide what i should write in the roadsign, any ideas?

**Andorz** · March 24th, 2010, 05:57 PM

Very cool and professional looking art. Good job!
I dig the last piece. Great values. Is there any matte involved, or do you just have awesome brushes and talent?

Thanks man, No mattes, just been making lots of my own brushes.

**B-zilla** · March 25th, 2010, 07:15 AM

Hey, thanks for stopping by my sb! Incredible work you're doing here, even more so since you've only been painting digital for a year. I can tell you've got some solid traditional grounding with your brush work and color theory. I've got a lot to learn!

Can't wait to see more!

**PHATandy** · March 26th, 2010, 08:08 AM

MMMMMM this is tasty stuff man, your brush work in your couple of environmentd is reaaally nice. They have a very realisitic feel to them and feel like some sort of classic master painting - Gives it a good atmosphere.

Where did u study illustration btw? Just interested

im studying at Falmouth in Cornwall atm doing Illus.

Keep it up dude, ill be looking forward to seeing some more.
thanks for stopping by my SB too.

Thanks man, always good to get some feedback.

I studied BA 'illustration & animation' in Southampton. Good times!

My brother lives in Falmouth so i know it well, normally travel down from London once or twice a year.

**the ANGRY filipino** · March 30th, 2010, 11:56 AM

whoopee! another Sb to haunt!
Your enviros/landscapes are awesome...I envy you!
And the babes ( the very few babes..we need more! ) that you have posted look very very fine!

**Medelo** · April 1st, 2010, 06:29 AM

Hey man,

Thanks for commenting on my SB. You have some really amazing work here, the digital pieces have an awesome sense of color that I'm envious of

That monkey is also sweeeeet.

Post more!

**Chr. Steam** · April 1st, 2010, 09:06 AM

I like you girl with her claws on so much *_*

**spark_zero** · April 5th, 2010, 06:12 PM

Cool stuff so far. post some more, and not only finished looking professional stuff but all kinds of retarded stuff, like sketchbook pages and such.. those things are also fun to look at:d

**artozi** · April 5th, 2010, 06:53 PM

Please post more!

But from what you have presented I would recommend doing quicker studies. Going into sick detail right on is one of methods but it is very time-consuming... Nice brushes you have! The spaceship in last picture looks pasted a little, but overall painting is great!

**Kambei Shimada** · April 7th, 2010, 06:12 PM

Will post some quick studies next i promise!

Angry Filipino: thank you sir, will be posting more ladies soon.
RedHawk/Chr Steam:Thanks.
Spark Zero: Retarded stuff on the way!

Arozi: Yeah ive been meaning to post more doodles & looser sketchbook work but i dont currently have a working scanner. (I still tend to do most of my studies etc.. in pen and ink)

Ok another drawing.. this is a study from a bronze. I'm actually a working on a full colour sci-fi piece based on the same image.

**JustinBeckett** · April 13th, 2010, 05:44 PM

thanks for the comment dude....cool stuff, like the last one...keep drawing!

**sketchibo** · April 15th, 2010, 09:44 PM

So awesome! Love the landscapes.

**Kambei Shimada** · June 1st, 2010, 04:02 PM

This is not quite finished but i thought i would post it anyway. Dont want to get too tight with this and lose some of the nice accidental strokes. Its hard to know when to stop though as i have a habit of getting too stuck into the details.

**Jonathan C** · June 3rd, 2010, 01:42 PM

Thank you for stopping by my SB. Great work here!. If I squint my eyes and look at the image with the road sign it looks like a photograph! Great and accurate use of colors on that image.

Is the last image using traditional media? It looks good but her right arm looks a bit flat.

Keep posting, Cheers!

**Aresa** · June 3rd, 2010, 01:55 PM

Your landscapes are amazing! So much detail and I love how realistic they look. Your sketches and studies are phenomenal too. Great work and hope to see more!

Thanks Man, No painted in Photoshop (although the initial drawing was in pencil)

Areza - Thanks, always nice to get good feedback.

**JellevdVegt** · June 4th, 2010, 08:46 AM

nice work! Your work has a nice subtlity (is that a correct word?) about it. I think your work could improve by adding more contrast(adding darks more). this way your work has more impact on first impression.

**Kambei Shimada** · October 18th, 2010, 05:19 PM

Hav'nt posted in a while but several pieces on the go.
Will post some concept sketches i have been working on the next few days.

I started this Pan/Faun concept in pen and ink several years ago(inspired by an Arthur Rackham drawing) Anyways ive recently gone back to it and decided to finish it in photoshop/painter.

This is still a WIP but i'm pretty pleased with how its turning out.

**Edward B** · October 19th, 2010, 11:36 AM

Hey there Kamebei, Love that Sci-fi enviro with the sign,the colours in there are gorgeous!
The recent Pan is looking eerie as it is. Gonna be cool to se where you take it.
Looking forward to those concept sketches.

These last two look really nice. I like the expression the model's face here. It directs your attention away from the nude aspect. The ink/paint drawing is working as well although I noticed it seems a bit cut and paste after a few views. The duality between these two viewing experiences is something you might work out to your benefit. One being initially an indirection the other a gradual deflection.
