Here's a sketch I di about a week ago... but I'd like some feedback, if any. Was about 30 mins worth.

**CGMonkey** · June 2nd, 2006, 02:25 PM

Aye I like your gesture alot! Especially your faces, keep em coming :-P~~

**Noë** · June 2nd, 2006, 03:30 PM

hey, nice work!
I like how these things sort of emerge from the grey myst.

Would like to see more! (you're bookmarked)
love,
Marleen

P.S. Weet je al van de Dutch Sketchgroup Meeting? ^^ *werft leden* ofzo.

I think more contrast would help. I mean push the values a bit.

**jmBoekestein** · June 2nd, 2006, 05:00 PM

Thx CgMonkey! More is sure to come!

Thanks Noe! Cheers! I'll be sure to check that out.

eazym, yeah you're probably right, I've had problems with that all the time. Thanks for reminding me

Todays sketch

...

I do feel it needs work, but you gotta produce it well enough I feel to present at least something so no highlights but the forms are there I feel.

**jmBoekestein** · June 8th, 2006, 10:11 PM

Bold on contrast! For once!!!

Got some good ideas on where next, for starters higher resolution but then more intricate composition, which I completely suck at.

(ps: excuse the roughness, but I painted this under the influence)

**jmBoekestein** · June 8th, 2006, 11:31 PM

and another

sci fi half life 2 thingy... for a daily sketch at cgtalk, 'stalker'.

**jmBoekestein** · June 15th, 2006, 11:23 AM

Thx Goblinshark!

I'm trying, soon I'll post something which has (maybe too much nudity and) better contrast and highlights.

anatomy test, was certain I was doing it right in the above mentioned painting so double checking.

**jmBoekestein** · July 17th, 2006, 09:46 PM

haven't done much lately, but did this just now to play with a brush.

**jmBoekestein** · July 17th, 2006, 11:44 PM

new brush, and another portrait...

painter IX is really slow to resize my brushes

it's driving me mad.

**Shylone_Breath** · July 18th, 2006, 06:36 AM

nice speedy stuff ! i love your speed faces and the dinosaur. post more because it quiet difficult to comment constructive for me . may be you can draw some mechanic stuff , i m sure that your roughstyle could get that nice.

**jmBoekestein** · August 1st, 2006, 12:25 AM

Thx Shylone Breath, I forget to keep track of forums now that I'm visiting several lol. Sorry about that I'll try and keep...

Did an environment attempt, pretty interesting to do, my first go...

**jmBoekestein** · September 5th, 2006, 12:35 AM

AFtre a bit of a dip and a upgrade to 64 bit dual core I just did this one in 24m 35s (frames counted and then backtracked).

Screencap of me working on it, second atempt is coolest, first one was an empty attempt.

maybe not so good, but I thought it was cool to do hahahaha.

**jmBoekestein** · September 17th, 2006, 06:01 PM

anatomy lesson on cgtalk ... original is charon

**jmBoekestein** · September 19th, 2006, 08:52 AM

Work in progress, a vampire. I really have a thing with vampires lately, I don't think it even has much to do with the undead archetype even. Very odd.

**jmBoekestein** · September 29th, 2006, 08:15 PM

colouring experiment, one of my very first so you've just witnessed the miracle of birth, or sci fi fanaticism :p.

**jmBoekestein** · September 29th, 2006, 08:16 PM

damn cuoudln't edit my post, uhm... here's the full pic...

**Beershite** · October 19th, 2006, 05:06 AM

Cool pieces you got in your book!
I like the dark/shady feel of them a lot. Keep going!
Cheers.

**Deodatus** · October 19th, 2006, 05:10 AM

Nice work. All verry mystical. I like the last girl especially. The contrast of light is the biggest there. The enviroment in pretty nice too. Keep that up! Like to see more!
