I'm a bit of a newbie here but I've seen your work around CGTalk a lot, and I just wanted to say I love it. You've got a great sense of light and colour, and it seems to me that even though your strokes are fast and few, you put them in just the right places. I wish I could do 1/10th as well as that. Big respect, subscribing to this thread.

Woah man you are killing me with those speed paints! They're fantastic, I would pick a fav but i can't.

Sorry, Ive got nothing but asspats. I love it, keep posting!

**stuter** · May 23rd, 2006, 02:30 PM

DANG! these are fkn good!

**RES** · May 23rd, 2006, 04:50 PM

Your speedpaints are just sex on legs....thats all I can say.

**Conchobhar** · May 23rd, 2006, 05:00 PM

The perspective on the towers and torches in that last one is off… way off T_T but I still love it besides that. My design teach would have a fit, but it really doesn't ruin the piece.

**m@.** · May 30th, 2006, 06:38 PM

broken : thanks!

asgardian : thank you

stuter :thx

RES : hehe thanks

Conchobar : ok

**Art_Addict** · May 31st, 2006, 05:47 AM

Fantastic piece that last one. I love the feeling of depth you created
without actually drawing something representational.

If I may ask, what exactly do you do for a living?

Cheers
Tom

Tyranx : thanks man

glad you like.

Ledd :

Sartell : hehe thanks.

Vahn : hey man, I gotta work too :p

Kian : thank you

Merlin : thanks

Icey : thanks. Actually I use less and less different brushes. 90% of the work is done in hard or soft round brush with opacity on pen pressure. I have some variations on that , some brushes with on side hard and another soft, so I can do some little gradients and stuff. I have some brushes in scaterring too to add some quick chaos.

Art_Addict : thanks thunderdome-opponent

I do concept art / 3D modeling and all kind of 3D stuff as a living. Changing career though, gonna start working in concept art only for video games in a couple of weeks... I'm kinda fed up of 3D.

marioucci : hey my friend, glad you like it!

**loomer** · May 31st, 2006, 09:57 AM

your work is really awesome man. Great color and atmosphere. And damn..you are fast too. Always looking forward to your next image
cheers!
