Hey everybody .
I'm a french beginner. I'm 16 years old, and my name is Thomas.
Please, be nice with my english because i'm not bilingual .
I began "painting" since march 2012.
My deviant http://graph3dungo.deviantart.com/.

Today i'm happy to open my sketchbook here.
And to show you some paintings among the best, which i did during march -> november 2012.

ENJOY !

Wait - March 2012? You're kidding me, right? O_O

In english because english forum,

Great study in general !

A little lack of structure sometime. Like in this last one, watch out for the Ellipses shapes. You can see there is a problem especially on the second from the left.
Same for the faces, they are great, but i'm sure you can be more precise.

Like in this one => http://conceptart.org/forums/attachm...1&d=1353342508

Every parts of the face (the nose, the lips, the eyes, etc) are cool , well rendered, but they don't fit exactly together, more constructions line would fix that quickly, I annoy you with really little details here


Pour 16 ans tu commence bien continue comme ca.

Olooriel:
Thanks !
Yes it's right !
I'd got my tablet for my last birthday, and i'm born in march .
But, i said that they're the best paintings of all.
If you want to see others, you can see it here http://www.graphistes-world.com/forum/?showtopic=10433.
It's a thread of my beginning.

Orkimede:
"In english because english forum" I'm agree, but it's to have more critics .

"Great study in general ! " Thank you !

Oh yeah, taken a lot of pleasure to draw this one. Thank you.

Je ne sais pas si tu parle français, ou si ça sort tout droit du traducteur, mais merci à toi. Enfin belgique tu dois quand même parler français...
Mieux vaut commencer tôt pour ne pas le regretter plus tard .

lionheartGFX:
Wow thank you so much !
You've already seen me in deviant art...
However, what i make isn't very well. I appreciate that you know me before CA.
For the practice, i can draw only during my weekends (when i haven't homework).

Thanks again.

These look like photo paintovers. Post some traditional stuff.

You're here to learn, not to impress.

[Graph3Dungo]

I did not paint directly on reference... I began with a sketch. For the sketch, i help me with landmarks of a grid for to be sure of proportions.
For the colours, i used pipette because it's very difficult without. But it's right that i should do it without pipette.
But I have never painted on the photo directly.

I can't post traditional stuff of painting. But i can with pencil.
I think that it could help me for the building of a portrait to draw it in the pencil.

But really, i here just for improve myself and not for impress people.
My works isn't to the level for this. And here a lot of people are more strong that me.

[Olooriel]

I really recommend *not* using the pipette, just consider it taboo and don't touch it at all, you'll learn so much more.

Very nice works)) For the sake of learning, I'd recommend to forget about pipette and to paint more from life and imagination.
