Look over here 2.5 Optimized

[Michal Haluza]

Nice! Those pencil sketches of people are great.

[Alex Eh]

Heyyy it;s looking good dude! Hmmm I think looking at your recent work maybe try thinking a bit more about reflected lighting too? But keep it up it's looking good

[SophieW]

I like the last study; the colours are looking good I’m not in a position to really give advice on painting but you could maybe look at trying some studies involving more dramatic lighting or colours, just to push your stuff a little bit further. This is a great sketchbook and I’m still looking forward to your future updates!

[giby]

Epic sketchbook man ... luv ur characters

[tsabu]

Man your characters, and rendering looks just great!

Not much to crit here really - you may work a bit more about stuff like enviros etc. just to don't stuck to much with characters only.

[will123will]

[Velocity Kendall]

While I've enjoyed looking through your SB, I did notice that you don't give your females proper hips; they're more like male hips. Women are built for bearing children and need to be substantial in that area. Sure there are super models that have zero hips, but they're not Lara Croft, who even well endowed, looks female because of her hips. Also watch the head count on the legs, you're not designing a character to model fashion.

Nice updates man, i really like how you blend, that last portrait of your little sis came out great, keep 'em coming

[Natzetta]

dayum, your pencil drawings are great!

velocity kendall-thanks!
black spot- you are right i tend to like drawing girls with model proportions, but thats just my taste i mean of course if a client wanted a hero i probably wouldnt give them some skinny chick. as for the head count idk...i actually measure with heads but everyone still tells me im wrong so??
gpozzo-thank you bruh!
natzetta-haha thnx!
ltplissken-haha idk that little sister too sweet part crept me out :b thanks plissken!

[Candra H]

Thanks for the SB visit.

You're nineteen? Your work is amazing. Keep pushing like you are now and you'll be spectacular soon enough. No crits from me.

[jecelin69]

Man you certainly know how to handle characters! Great updates, the last study came out nice!

[David_a_ray]

Nice stuff you’ve got here man. Now I'm wishing I would have started drawing earlier in life; so many wasted years!

[Kungfoowiz]

Hey, I like the last character =) The sketch looks promising =)

[Immortal Cintiq]

Powerful work happening here!

[j.zhang]

lookin good kevin, i like the hair on the figures =]

[Januz]

Great work here, the face on the right reminds me of Alex Ross a bit.
Keep 'em raining man

[ninaren]

great updates, post #283 really caught my eyes, love it and i also love the pencil art that you do. delicous
The study of your sister is really good, her ear is abit too big but I think she is really cute. The colors and edges are great.
I also like your newest characters. Nice hair but one thing that pops my mind is that the edges might be abit too hard overall on the hair. If I look at the study you did of your sister she also have hard edges but also some soft. Im no expert in hair at all just something I thought about. Hope u dont mind. Keep it up, always great to browse through your sb Have a nice weekend!

kristina520-thanks , hope you do!

some sketches

[Reptile]

man cant believe i haven't left you a comment before, this sb is amazing man! i can see you are improving too, cant wait to see what more you have!

[invinciblewombat]

very nice work in here, you have some very cool designs and nice renderings. your all figures look rather stiff and rigid though. I would try to focus on balance and rhythm when you draw people or creatures for a while. gestural life drawing can help a lot with this.

keep it up!

[Jr.Molcak]

agreed the above said. Though I like that you don't overdraw your designs keeping them easy on eye.

[T-Eight]

hey kevin_

just like to say thanks for ur comment on my sketchb88k

[DSmith]

Wowza, really nice work here! I didn't have time to check all the pages yet, but I definitely will! Keep it up!
Oh and thanks for stopping by my sketchbook!

[Kungfoowiz]

Cool work man, your values are really stylin! =)

[lionheartGFX]

Awesome work dude, your blending and values are just kick ass cant wait to see how you develop, work your ass off and the rewards will be worth it good luck

[Suncut]

I like the structure and colors of the faces a lot! But the hair seems to sit on the head like a wig or just a cutout shape. The fact that the hair doesn't cast any shadows on the face seems just a bit too unnatural. They also seem to have less light hitting them than the faces.

[ja1307]

Love the dedication buddy. One thing that I would say is think about the anatomy under the clothes. What I mean by that is how does fabric flows over the body, how does that effect folds, crease, tension and flow in materials, this will begin to help elevate your work. The designs are good and you have a good brain for design I can tell just blend a bit more real world study with it and it will help sell them more. Keep rocking it.
