Dile's sketches

[Dile_]

Thanks guys!

Here is something I did for the Teen Challenge...



should've spent more time on it D: or started earlier haha.. damnit

[glaudarien]

Damn man, goodluck with Art Center! I wish i could afford that place =/
You definitly stand a chance, especially if you continue to up your game constantly from now on.

From what i understand Art Center is very ID heavy, is this the side of things your interested in for going there? If so, i'd love to see you approach some ID stuff.

To be honest, ID is what I want to do, the kinda stuff that John Park does is what I always wanted to do, I've just got kinda side-tracked with illustration thanks to this place funnily enough haha! Thanks man! This book will be pretty ID heavy shortly!

[Ven S]

The Teen Challenge is awesome! Good luck with Art Center, hope you get in .

Ah great! I've been very heavily into ID myself too lately, i love how its pure design rather than just making an attractive artwork, which i find much more satisfying. Ahah yeh thats one thing that i'm not that fond of about CA, even though its called 'conceptart'.org the majority of the site seems very illustrative in terms of content and approach - but hey its still a great community. Look forward to seeing what you come up with!

[Gadbury]

Great work, and such beautiful environments! I've visited your old sketchbook a few times for a massive kick up the ass before I do anything the past couple of years, makes me feel so lazy when I see people like you hammering the work! Good luck with the Art Center!

[Ztak]

Awesome sketchbook! I think i have to start kicking my nuts again to pick up the pace. Anyhow i'm rlly confident that you will get in to the Art Center. Produce some more beauty baby! ^^

[lancer_idenoure]

woooaaaah do you mean art center college of design in pasadena california??? i live in that city! (when im not at school) if thats what you mean that would be awesome. and i know a bunch of people who go there and youd definitely get in, maybe even with a scholarship

[Vella C Raptor]

I have a friends that attend there...honestly none of them are even at your level so I wouldn't be too worried, haha. Assuming you mean the cali one~

[nim]

supa cool, supa cool! the fjord one me lieks in particular! will have to start painting enviros myself now finally cause I wont have any money for food otherwise.. (why wasn't it like that from.. even ten years ago? hmm) EDIT: OH!! and CONGRATS and GOOD LUCK at Art Center!!!

[Dile_]

sorry for the lack of updates D: shiit.. I got a lot of stuff to scan though! D:
thanks for the support everyone! I really appreciate it I need to get good enough to solve the financial problem with going to a school overseas as well haha.. damnit.

heres a painting I did today!



which started as a 30 min speedpaint D:

[takashmen]

sooo trad paintings are coming?

talking about your painting
great details

but in my opinion color scheme doesn't match the scene
it's just a feeling, my brain keeps on banging
"sth is wrong with it" maybe it's also about the figure on foreground (it has unnatural propotions)

sorry for being so inaccurate

i think you should also focus on pallet of your paintings

cheers

Hey man, awesome stuff on that latest WIP, loving how your describing the form with the different planes - looks like a stealth bomber? (from my very limited knowledge). Are you using any videos for this ID stuff? I've found Scott Robertson's Gnomon Workshop vids mega helpful for learning the draw-through process. Keep it up man, can't wait to see how this one progresses and more of your ID stuff.

[Dile_]

Ven S: Thanks a lot!

Glaudarien: Haha yeah man i agree! I'll start posting more id stuff from my sb!

Gadbury: Thanks man! I love your work!

Ztak: thanks haha! Its going a bit slow right now tho' D;

Lancer_idenoure: Yes! ACCD! I'll go to cali either way Can't stay away much longer!!

Vella_C_Raptor: Hahha really? Which department are they in? And its a lot about the financial part too D:

Nim: Thanks buddy!

Takashmen: I agree with the crit, I think its the mucho-too-warm in the background that is rubbing off a bit. But one of the goals with the painting, was to push in different fields.. such as value and chroma haha. I have noticed that I leave my paintings a bit too dull. So I gotta practice outside of my comfortzones too
Thanks for the crit man! Really appreciate it!

dlincoln83: Thanks man!

Andres333: Much appreciated! Cool site, looking through it as I type this hahah =)

Glaudarien: thanks man! yeah I have seen those, seen most of his videos I think? D: haven't taken them seriously till now though D:



WIP numbero 4 for the teen challenge:

[Meon]

Cool JET DUDE! would fit a nolan batma movie.

Thinking about playing more with the surface on the jet? make it reflect more its surroundings more?

haha thanks man its on its way, i just want to figure out what every part looks like, and how it fits together not only visually. I still haven't done much with the background either, I just have a rough idea of what kind of light there is in the scene. I did some green bounce light etc, and blue reflecting from the sky (turning more cyan'ish because of the green/yellow that is the plane), but it will have to wait just a little longer till everything is definied and worked out!

Thanks for stopping by mate! Really appreciate the thought

[Meon]

cool cool! cant wait to see it rocking that finish stage, mang.

[Dile_]

arrr deadline is now.

Really happy about the effort i put into this one D: still missing a lot of fundamentals.. gotta study more from life idd.

Got a lot of great crits and help from Slimeface, ~Faust~ and people on the stream. Thanks a lot! I also got a really sick paintover by meon! LINK

[Reika]

Lovely values all around! I like everything here. Dunno what else to say but keep it up!

[ryan mcshane]

yeah you did! rocking dile

[glaudarien]

AWesome stuff man. I would've loved to see you take it even further but none-the-less its a great piece for the teen challenege, looking forward to what you'll work on next.

[xinranliu]

cool updates lately and glad to hear that you're planning on going to Art Center
also I'm dying to know how you're planning on affording the tuition.... freelance on the side? loans (are they available to international students)?

[Forrest_I]
