Nice stuff man!

Makes me wanna bust out the pencils again... I've been spending too much time in photoshop...

Keep up the solid work!

[NickyBeats]

your pencils kick ass bro!! loving your lines, and your your smooth transitions in values. but i agree with whoever up there said you could probably go darker, render em out a bit more, but then again im just getting picky.

[Ramalooke]

Like they say: nicely drawn chick is good. You made my day

Beautiful pencils. Makes me want to break out my ones. Great sketchbook

[S3CTR4]

What's your schedule this semester? I got mondays and fridays off so we might have a better chance at coordinating random sketch days here and there this term.

[bpic]

heya, good critiques you guys. Its kept me busy for awhile and helped me work on some weak areas for that I love you!!! I will stop by and see if I can give some crits back.

J-P, MarcSampson, Ludic, Emil_, Delmar, Ramalooke: thank you guys so much for commenting!! Been working my tail off so its good to hear that its paying off some... even though sometimes I feel like the same level as when I started.

Mischeviouslittleelf - your stuff is amazing. Thank you for the critique, it has made me start pushing for some more full range of values.

NickyBeats - for sure, thanks man. More fully rendered stuff incoming!

S3CTR4 - love to sketch with you on mondays, so long as the hw load isnt too horrible for us. That would be sick! Ill call you monday if you dont call me.

Sublimus - you should man lol. I am the opposite though I need more PS time.

Mitze- yeah you should, tis' fun. Thanks for visiting me!

here is some crap I been working on... theres more but I wont post lol. I will be doing some photoshop work starting today I promise!!! Thanks for visiting.

anyone know how to say what each of these images is above the image? I cant show if its reffed or non reffed or what... They all just post one on top of the other. confused lol.

[Ludic]

anyone know how to say what each of these images is above the image?

Pretty sure you gotta use the [ IMG]http://test.com[/IMG ] Thingy to do that,
but then again, i could be wrong.

Keep up the good work, looking forward to the digitals .

Man the study of the knight is pretty damn intense.

I see you got out a PS study, don't be scared to jump into some colour as well after all those pencils.

Also with the latest girls you drew a little critique generally women have more pronounced cheek bones and their nose bridges dont normally lay so high (ideal anyway) however I'm only learning myself now to draw girls well, so take it with a grain of salt.

Keep it up man its always nice to drop by your sketchbook.

[Ramalooke]

Hoh I see some pretty intense studies here. Good, good There's some issues with the knight. It looks correctly drawn, anatomy and perspective is ok. But he looks a bit flat. Well yeah you convinced form quite nicely but still i can't see space between his arm and torso. I think this is because to small value range you used. There's also no focal point, I don't know where I should look first. But still this is very good sketch, I'm sure that it could be great drawing if you decide to refine it more. Anyway nice update. Cheers.

[NickyBeats]

always love seeing your newest stuff man. i thought i was getting sick of doing traditional stuff lately, but damn, your making me want to go shred a few more pencils...awesome stuff!

[bpic]

Hey hey, sorry been lazy.

Thanks for the crits fellas! I love crits. I wish I had more time to post but im back in school so I don't have a lot of time lol. Always on the go. Here is a screencap. Ill post some more shit when im finished with it, and some pencils.

Edit: decided to just add some PS character in here, rather than make a new post. Going to paint it later.

[Erick Willand]

Cool stuff dude, thanks for sharing.

[xxshadowedsoulxx]

The sargent copy is very good. the quick sketches pretty decent I think the only way to get good, elegant quick sketches is probably just years of exp.

[bpic]

xxshadowedsoulxx - yeah for sure, cant wait till I get done with school so I can just build the xp everyday rather than waste my time learning some of the crap they teach.

Thanks for the comments!

Here are some things I painted for my practice website for a class. The ground beef label was cut and pasted.. because im lazy. Hand is all painted from mind.

[no87]

some nice stuff man! your pencils are real nice.

[NickyBeats]

oooo thats a good price for human meat!! i gotta get to Hannaford next time... its like 10 bucks over at stop and shop.

[Aveh]

Ya school comes with pros and cons thats for sure.
But im sure you'll get some time to do some raw shit, take it easy dude.

[zenichi]

[Ramalooke]

Yummy update I can say xD I don't know why but perspective of the plate and hand are not matching. Can't check it right know. Anyway nice update

NickyBeats - 10 dollars? outragous! Are they at least organic? Thanks for visiting man.
Aveh - thanks for visiting. Yeah I think it will pay off in the long run.. but not now lol.
zenichi - o really? Whom? im curious lol. Not a surprise though there are a few people whose work I spend a lot of time looking at. Ill wait to see if its noticeable though lol.
Ramalooke - hey buddy. Yeah your right about that. I wish I still had a copy to tweak it real fast. Oh well. Thanks for visiting me!
Ludic - you are getting better
Loathsome - thank you (blush).

Here is a character.. spent more time than I needed to on it, didn't really get it where I wanted it but whats new? I have some sketches to show too seriously.. I just need to stop being lazy.

[NickyBeats]
