[Pichuerca]

Amazing skechbook!

Do you start form black and white sketch to then apply the colors or you directly use colors? I would like to see some of the steps or your process, can you post any?

[lewiston]

fantastic. gReat technique great light, very inspiring.... Do you only draw in painter or are you using other programs as well?

[young paddy1]

fantastic gear you've got in here, luv the sega shop paintover and the guy wielding the sword at the bottom is amazing, thought it was 3d when I saw the top half.

veh nice

[dextermcspice]

Intense, the lighting is mind blowing.

[Icey]

cool thread, man!

[Tigermilk]

wow, really nice work. Especially your environments, wich I love. Even tho you know your human anatomy quite well, they look kinda stiff most of your characters. Try 'n look in to that.

Keep it up!

Wonderful SB, M@. I really love the way you handle lighting and color. I'll be looking for more!!

[ChrisMayernik]

Holy shit man. Awesome handling of values. Very impressive work. Pc

[Hypronost]

What the hell is your problem man !!!!
This is bloody awesome artwork. I'm a fan from the work you done on cgtalk aswell (assuming that's you :-).

Really great lighting and color in your work.
The character work is awesome, but my favorite is cleft.jpg.
The landscape where you tested your brushes, lol, tested, fecking awesome.

Anyway, very inspireing work. Always nice to see your work.

[dCepT]

Keep 'em coming!

[m@.]

rewind : thanks for your words

Denntanos : I try to post as often as I can! thanks

lewiston : thanks. I don't use painter, only PS and sometimes 3dsmax

young paddy 1, dextermcspice, Icey : thanks

TigerMilk : you're right about the characters I still don't know perspective and anatomy so good to be able to pull out accurate characters in a few brushstrokes and have that dynamic feel.. I tend to work a long time on them and so, I get some stiffness.

ZebzFree, ChrisMayernik, That fat kid : thanks

Hypronost : thanks, and yes , that's me

dCepT : thanks. Well, that one is for you then same kind of style as gold.jpg

[Flaskpost]

Damn man! One of your best works so far imo!
the texture and lightning! whoa!

[dCepT]

Awesome! Diggin' on the reflectiveness of the metal... No crits, man!

peace
