Great start, practice it's the way that you're gonna get better and better. And you're definitely doing that, so keep working, and I want to see more in a while to see your improvements

i dont like to post stuff often but today i feel like posting something that have done in the last couple of hours. Its still a work in progress but you're free to comment on the current stage.

**=DarkStar=** · July 25th, 2012, 12:52 PM

so here's some progress but i think it will let it that way for the moment.

**=DarkStar=** · July 27th, 2012, 10:13 PM

**=DarkStar=** · July 28th, 2012, 12:06 AM

**=DarkStar=** · August 3rd, 2012, 02:35 PM

here's some 3d made without reference only mind and skills.... Can someone tell me why i can't achive the same quality on paper

.

**Psychobuddy** · August 3rd, 2012, 03:39 PM

It's harder on paper, because you're trying to translate forms into flat shapes. Working in 3d is, more like working in life, the forms are easier to think out. But yeah dude just keep studying!

**=DarkStar=** · December 15th, 2012, 10:02 PM

New WIP for fun since i didnt got time to study a lot in the last 3 month!

**Yemi775** · December 15th, 2012, 11:20 PM

Great start =DarkStar= i really love your value ^ keep updating mate!

**FatMoStank** · December 15th, 2012, 11:50 PM

That 3d model is looking very human - may take alittle while before it sets into your art. But I think it will definitely think it will help you develop faster.
