The pencil one on the toned paper is nice.
Do you have any realistic pieces?

**sketcheth** · January 27th, 2008, 11:20 PM

I like what I'm seeing so far, you have some very solid work, keep it up. I liked your DSG entry, by the way, it's what brought me to your page. You should have it posted here, man!
Well anyways, keep it up.

breakdowns, roughs, and others.

More sketches

**Verastegui** · March 3rd, 2008, 11:38 PM

WIPS. Lots of work to do...

**SEVANS** · March 5th, 2008, 07:32 PM

The comic pages of the fight scene have a great flow and solid body language/movement. Nicely done.

Sketches I did for the sake of building a concept art portfolio.

**Verastegui** · March 20th, 2008, 10:06 PM

Some more sketches. Trying to get a concept art portfolio going...

**Verastegui** · April 8th, 2008, 11:15 AM

Some more roughs.

Great start!

I think there's definitely hint of a distinctive style there on the pencil work and facial expressions. Proportions are so consistent that one can tell you've drawn loads and loads of characters. I think your colour sketches still need some photo reference practice though, they don't have the vibrant changes of hue the eye or lense sees. Anatomy looks great otherwise but IMO the abs and back could still use some work (looking at the fighter on post 2 and the cell-shaded dude on 8 ).

Anyway, I really like the style you have here. Armour and weapon designs look nicely original and those enviroment concepts are great, hope to see some of them finished!

Thanks for all the comments. I hope I can have some more finished pieces in the near future.

**Verastegui** · April 16th, 2008, 03:26 AM

new and improved Plague Doctor. Cape not included.

**Euchrid Eucrow** · April 16th, 2008, 03:33 AM

Lot's of cool stuff! I especially liked the on with the samurai (the sketched version).

I'd like to see more, including that comic book you started on up there.

**Verastegui** · April 16th, 2008, 04:15 PM

Here's some comic work I'm doing. I still need to get some work done on these pages before I colored them.

**Verastegui** · April 16th, 2008, 07:54 PM

Here's some a finished illustration I did today.

**Verastegui** · April 21st, 2008, 02:00 AM

Studies and Thumbnails

**Verastegui** · April 23rd, 2008, 04:24 PM

another painting

**Verastegui** · April 25th, 2008, 03:29 AM

A self portrait and another wip.

**Verastegui** · May 4th, 2008, 12:33 AM

A finished painting.

**Nightblue** · May 4th, 2008, 11:20 PM

The self-portrait's energy is very nice, and the anatomy studies are awesome. Your paintings are still a bit too tight. When you have time, maybe try doing some one-hour speed paintings - don't worry if the results look crappy. Rather, just get used to painting rapidly and loosely.

**Verastegui** · May 5th, 2008, 10:16 AM

Chow: The African Warlord

**Verastegui** · May 5th, 2008, 05:47 PM

speed painting.

**Verastegui** · May 14th, 2008, 01:40 PM

More speed paintings, they were done in one hour. All for the DSG.

**Verastegui** · May 19th, 2008, 02:17 PM

Some concepts and illustrations. I did the Ryu Vs. Abel piece for the Street Fighter fanart contest.

**transroboball** · May 19th, 2008, 04:52 PM

pretty good,dude.

**Verastegui** · May 29th, 2008, 06:50 PM

A bit more.

**Frogisis** · May 29th, 2008, 07:41 PM

Oh my god, these are all so cute! You really know how to inject life and personality into every line you make.

You've got all the basics of drawing down - The anatomy, composition, and sense of light and texture are all pretty solid. I might suggest working a little bit on dimensionality, i.e. making things look like the occupy 3D space, which I think some drawings of inanimate objects or experimenting with heavy black shading might help with.

**Verastegui** · July 11th, 2008, 08:51 PM

It's been a while, but I have a few more things to show. There's a workshop coming up and I'm getting ready for it.
