17 yrs so critique me HARD!!!!!

**Spideriser** · July 2nd, 2011, 09:04 AM

-and wadup.

This is my second sketchbook and I welcome you all. I'm just a 17 year old kid who loves to draw and whatnot, who (like most artists here) is looking to improve. I have loads of previous work I could post but I find that after each piece I tend to improve, so I always hate my previous pieces ]:

Anyhow here is a digital wip a few hours in and a penicl drawing. I'll post more soon and hopefully every 3 days but I was just eager to start a new thread, thus my lack of art at this stage. BUT DO COME BACK, ill post more soon

Also please critique me, SERIOUSLY! critque the crap out of me, but not just yet, maby next post when I have finished more pieces haha. BUT STILL COMMENT!

Also please help me with my less than large view count on Deviant art here: http://spideriser.deviantart.com/

Cheers and please come clickin' backin' ma sketchbook soon (:

^remember deviantart?.... hmmmm

**Spideriser** · July 2nd, 2011, 09:05 AM

edit: that pencil drawing is A4 done with my 0.3 mm

**coonage** · July 2nd, 2011, 09:43 AM

pretty good, cant wait for the digital piece to be finished. sub'ed and 5 stars

**Spideriser** · July 5th, 2011, 11:53 AM

coonage:Thankyou, glad you like it (:

Heres a piece that started out as a speedpaint but im now going to detail this baby out haha. Its a few hours in so I'v still got loads to finish but I thought I'd keep to my word and upload at least once every 3 days. I also have a load of studies and a few comics I did but havent scanned them yet, let me know if you wanna see them anyways (:

Till next time.

Jack Sparrow, Reference used.

**Tawnos** · July 11th, 2011, 11:28 AM

Amazing skills, incredible details in those pencils... wow!

**Spideriser** · July 13th, 2011, 07:25 AM

Tawnos: Thanks for the really nice comment man

Really appreciate it and im glad you like my art

So I saw Harry Potter this morning, 2:30 am... AND so im painting my version of Voldemort. Here it is so far as a block in the colours (:

**Spideriser** · July 15th, 2011, 03:58 AM

a quick update on Voldemort, please gimme some critiques before I go into detailing, Cheers guys.

**twell** · July 15th, 2011, 10:34 AM

Great detailing on pencil drawings! The portrait of Jack looks pretty damn realistic, however there are issues with edges.

**Spideriser** · July 17th, 2011, 06:23 AM

twell: Hi and thankyou for the comment, but what did you mean by edge? are they not soft enough of smooth enough? Thankyou anyways and im glad you like the pencil drawings

been really busy the last few days so iv only done a little more on this picture, but im happy with the composition so its time to detail (:

**Yefim** · July 17th, 2011, 06:25 AM

damn you and your youth....

**Npc Rebellion** · July 17th, 2011, 06:27 AM

Damn! You're unfairly good. I'll try my best not to burn my sketchbook because I doubt I can get this good by the time I hit 17.

RAGE. Y u so good?! D:

**Spideriser** · July 18th, 2011, 10:10 AM

Yefim: haha yeah, cos your that much older than me

Npc Rebelion: Thanks man

Just keep practicing, whatever your looking to get into will go to the person who wants it the most.

Another quick update, your viewing these at 9% of the acctual size btw, cropings a bitch

Also have a few sketches but im so very skilled at scanning so ill give them a miss. Enjoy.

Detailing out the top of the head so far, only bout 15% of the detailing is finished though, *sigh*. Still fun tho

**Spideriser** · July 21st, 2011, 11:39 PM

quick update and an 8 minute speedpainting of on of dan luvisi's characters off Last Man Standing (no grid used)

**Spideriser** · July 24th, 2011, 05:14 AM

so heres my finished version of Voldemort and a 30 minute painting fo Abbadon, a badass villian from Dan Luvisi's LMS graphic novel. Enjoy.

**Metallurgist** · July 24th, 2011, 05:25 AM

Only 17? this stuff is seriously amazing

I think he meant the use of edges to create focus and depth. In the sparrow piece there are a lot of sharp edges. Use sharp edges in the focus and soften them in unimportant areas. Same goes for Voldi so far.

And his teeth are too small right now.
Really good job on sparrow, I wish I could have done that when I was 17... so much lost time. T_T

**Spideriser** · July 27th, 2011, 08:28 AM

Metallurgist: Thankyou, but im not amazing, I just refuse to believe to give up (:
Vaejoun: Ahh I can see and totally agree with you. And thankyou (:

A painting about 1 hour in of a request for me to paint Deadpool~ my way

**takashmen** · July 27th, 2011, 08:36 AM

great start

keep it up

**Spideriser** · July 28th, 2011, 06:25 AM

takashmen: Thankyou

come back haha

An hour or two further in and a few alterations yo! Quite enjoying this one (:

**Nibras** · July 28th, 2011, 08:01 AM

Nice stuff, your name is daniel right? We're the same age. Good going with all the tight rendering and painting. Did you use any reference for that first character pencil sketch by the way, upload more pencils! Other than that just keep going

**jiina** · July 28th, 2011, 08:57 AM

Hey there!
Nice stuff

It feels like you're rushing into the details with some of these though, especially with the last one. It would be nice to see your base sketches before you start adding colour etc. Try doing some studies to help get your anatomy and expressions right

Maybe this will help:

Keep posting!

**Spideriser** · July 28th, 2011, 09:23 AM

Nibrras: Good, another artist my age haha. For the pencil drawing I used no references, but I have the same style as the artist Dan "adonihs" Luvisi, So check him out (:

Jiina Thanks for the comment and the link (: I guess we all have different ways of painting and mine is to get the overall image, then hone into separate parts, I have a very random way of painting but cant help it

a pencil I started today, uploaded for Nebras viewing pleasure

, stupid scanner washes out nearly all the pencil tho

and the lineart from my deadpool painting.

**Spideriser** · July 28th, 2011, 09:30 AM

Oh yeah, my names Daniel, srry Nibras

**Spideriser** · July 30th, 2011, 09:27 AM

Some mindless doodles~ about an hours worth. Its a lot harder than it looks to draw with your hand in the air as you get the the sides haha(as ! was drawing on my lap).

**jdem** · July 30th, 2011, 09:32 AM

Wow, fantastic start, love your portraits! Keep at it, can't wait to see more

**Spideriser** · July 31st, 2011, 11:12 AM

Some people ask me how I manage to improve fast. Without being arogent, its become im never happy with my work. EVER! I can see every single mistake I make. Everything that doesnt look perfect and I compare myself to the very best artists. It really gets to you after a while and although I continue to improve, I'm never happy until my artwork looks amazing, which in my eyes, never will. So if you want to know how I improve, thats how, but I wouldnt recomend it.

further wip

5 hour portreit
