    I am very impressed by your rendering skills, you should pick up digital painting . Very nice work.
    The advantage of being a beginner is having a much greater amount of teachers.
    Sketchbook?

    nice pencil rendering.

    the animal studies are my favorites. they seem to have the most "life" as a drawing.

    i think the rope in the orangutan pic could use some more "ropelike" texture.

    keep going.

    thanks SOLORPOWER... I strted out in comics and than slowly moved into trad-art , I like to blend them both together to the extent that the comic look stays a bit dominent on the trad-art rendering techniques,...A couple of years back I couldn't even draw more than 2 or 3 poses of a man... And now NOW I can make "4"
    Prehistoric: thnx man I like drawing animals too specially birds and mammals... and that thing about the "hairy-Monkey".. I will try to fix it...
    Here is an enviornment I did. The idea was to blend bones and metal and machinery together..it was intended to be the Start-up screen of a personal video game project..

    Some nice stuff, but I will still highly recommend going and working the foundations as I said in the previous, you need to take that next level up or else you will become stunted and bored.

    These are great. My favorite is the start up screen picture. My only criticism would be the use of a dark outline against realistic shading on the orangutang and the girl with the head wrap. The two styles just don't belong together. I've seen it done by other artists, maybe it's a fad. Why is it done?

    Thanx for the replies people : I needed that...
    draw: thanx ...I am not a fan of anime myself but for some odd reason people always say that my stuff looks like Anime..

    Videodragon: thanx buddy....I have saved those tuts on to my disk and will definately follow them in a day or two..

    sajad126: thanx man ...looking forward to see some studies from you too..

    Magic Man: Sure thing !! ALL the stuff above are oldies.. I just wantd to show everyone some of my best stuff...But am doing regular sketching nowadays and most of the time it's anatomical and propotional studies..

    armando: well I do that with almost all of my drawings...But you are right, use of a hard outline with trad-shading does look odd, but only when you are making stuff like children, flowers and other things that have certain amount of tenderness to them. On the other hand I can't agree with you over the "hairy-monkey"... the out lines ARE there but they don't tend to be prominent enough to be noticed...

    Wow. I like your style. I love animal sketches and paints. Just finished a polar bear bear scene on the water so opening up this and seeing the silverback, etc was awesome.

    Keep going!

    Edited to add:

    Haha! Caught you posting. Nice work, again.

    It's not boring. I'm interested in knowing how and what other people are studying. On the woman with the cape the legs look flat, lines around the knees should overlap. The pose looks awkward, like her torso's staying still but her legs are trying to walk. Is there a specific book or something you're using to study the face?

    Edit: "is this getting boring" , crap were you refering to "fire at will"?

    You can go ahead and keep writing "fire at will", everyone needs a catchphrase. Sorry but I don't know of any online sources for anatomy besides saveloomis.org that everyone knows about, almost all online tutorials are crap. Personally I don't really like Loomis for anatomy, lots of cats rave about him like there on an infomercial, I'm expecting to here someone tell about how he saved their marriage and helped them quit booze. The book I'm using now is "Figure Drawing" by Richard G. Hatton, bought it on amazon.com for $1.50!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Been almost a weak since the last upadate..
    Here is the stuff that I did over the course of the weak...I also did some more head studies( line flkow and other crap)
    but the scanned images didn't came out that well so Iam posting only these..

    Detials..
    the girl head was done in like 10-15 mns
    the 0ldman took a longer time..I wanted an persian look..It's up to you guys to decide whether I failed at it or not..
    The last head was copied off a wallpaper of (wwe's) steveAustin..( 30 mins)
