[bradley]

Koppa Style! stunning oils and pencils, prob my fav oil artist on this site.

[Larriva Art]

I love your drawing style. It's almost like brush strokes. Also, the paintings are absolutely killer.

[tensai]

new paintings look hot man. supermooth but with looseness. love the dark palette too. i'm damn curious about the new stuff....

[clogik]

paintings are looking HOT! do you spend a lot of time on the paintings? they look so loose and expressive.

[Sleepy_Head]

The two girls with tats look good.

This last one is shaded really nice. Makes her look like she's made of clay if you look at it closely. Really neat style.

[bhanu]

[Darkside]

[Mr-Joe]

I really love the way you paint faces - you get a lot of personality into them. Cool stuff!

[bhanu]

Bhanu.

[koppa]

Gryphon - thanks mate

bhanu - hehe i know i know

[bhanu]

Waiting for the big art dump.

[Tigermilk]

looks incredible as usual!
arrgh I really wanna see the last one finnished and positioned in the right angle!
lovely, keep posting!

[bradley]

beautiful, makes me wish i had the space to paint like that, love all the drips and the watery under layers

[enthombed]

cool, you really rocks man, i hope learning something from your stuff, like shading in you drawings.

keep posting

[tensai]

that left one looks great the way it is with the tight painting of the head and the big empty space there. would be a cool piece like that. looking forward to see where you take that thing though.

[toolo]

amazing amazing work!!

[ccsears]

i really like the oil paintings (and the watercolors a few pages back). very subtle rendering of the tattoos on this page. the way the values on the tattoo change with the form, etc.

i like that last sideways redhead one too. as a vignette it's fine the way it is.

great stuff. 5*'s from me. keep painting!

[tensai]

as a vignette it's fine the way it is.

ah yeah - that was the word i was looking for. not to try to take away from the painting fun but i think it would be super strong if you just leave it like that.

edit - next time you're in japan, give me a shout. perhaps we could do some peep sketches on the train or something.

[koppa]

bhanu - ah cheers champ, my comps off getting fixed right now bear with me a little longer

Tigermilk - thanks matey haha it is at the right angle

bradley - thanks man, dont let lack of space stop you, if you saw how little room i had to paint you would laugh

enthombed - thanks mate im glad your getting something out of them

tensai - hehe yeah i know the guys at work were having a debate as to whether i should just leave it like that or not one guy offered to buy it so i wouldnt ruin it haha
and yes you bet next time im in japan (early next year ) il be dropping you a line so we can go do some drawing i might sleep on your couch and eat all your food too

toolo - thanks buddy

ccsears - thanks a bunch duder i appreciate it

ok so my comps of getting fixed il post all this finished stuff soon and a whole heap of new sketches... in the meantime i found another shot of the last painting

[paperX]

sweet updates man! the paintings just get better and better...keep pushing it
