Please feel free to comment or give constructive criticism!

All pics are CS5/Intous4.. Except for the ones on paper. Which are on paper. Ehhh...

For someone who describes himself as a "total noob with a Wacom tablet", you seem to be doing just fine and have made a wonderfull start here! I like how you bend lines where everyone expect them to be straight. The ghost castle and caravan interior are my favorites.

Keep it up !

Thanx Mila!! It´s really a joy to feel inspiration flowing and see how things approve the more stuff you do!!!

I like the mood in your work. There's obviously potential here, but you should consider doing studies from life to understand better how light and color really works. Keep posting.

Monster bite. (Can´t win em all...) Tried to learn a little about how to make clouds/skies and a little fiddling around with color dodge. For some reason, I really hate this one.

Hi ! Glad you're still posting :] I like the ideas and moods, but have to agree with ismo. Crank out some studies and post them here!
