Great drawing skills and great vehicle designs.U did a great progress over these years.
I loved the sky works, u have done great clouds.
Also your improvement in anatomy is obvious.
mostly i think u have to keep up improving your digital rendering.There is already an improvement there but keep it up !!!

[ThomasM]

really nice value and life studies, and I like the clouds on the previous page. Keep up the hard work and posting as often as you can, I look forward to returning to see the updates!

The kid riding the dinosaur looks great

[Ricardo Robles]

Hey amazing characters here! I like those last post-apocalyptic ones.
Just try to use a more varied color palette when you paint digitals.
Keep doing good man

[Klaus Reinbach III]

Mmmh sadly your homepage didn't work, hoped to see some more finished works from you there =).
Very nice improvement btw! I love seeing how someone evolves over the years!

[Deodatus]

Here is some WIP of different paintings, characters, studies... I don't know witch ones to finnish. Some stuff is almost a year old and I'd better work on new paintings, than trying to damage control old stuff and errors
Maybe thats why I post them, héhé!
Anyway. It is a sketchbook after all.

Hello! Thanks for the comment in my SB. I really enjoyed looking through yours. You have a great imagination. The WIPs look good.

Hey!
Went through all your sketchbook. I must say your pencils are amazing!
Also there is a huge improvement in your digitals, it motivates me to keep up the digital studies. Thanks and keep it up!

This is the second image for a music book for children from 1-4 years.
yess... almost babies - so no difficult content. :p
And drawn and painted in less than 2 hours...

More to come.

[Deodatus]

Yo. Another self-portrait. From imagination.
Little bit towards a cartoon style, I suppose.

[Deodatus]

Yesterday I spend all day painting and drawing in Lucians room. For the kid of two great people and good musician/artists/creative-style parents.
Big black markers and white acryl paint. On a silver wall (yihaa for the opacity). It was fun to do

[Deodatus]

A tribute to all mammy's and granny's!
Cheers

[Deodatus]

New drawing from this week. Ciao.

[Deodatus]

I think I didnt post this one yet. I maybe finnish it up later. background, light, cast shadow and arms still need some workup, but I like his head a lot.

[Surion]

This sketchbook is awesome. Great concepts combined with a good sense of humor.
Thanks for sharing!

By the way: aren't you a lecturer @ DAE howest? I'm currently studying Devine there
Looking forward to the next update

[shiNIN]

Thanks for visiting my SB, I return the favor now ~
Hmmm you improved a lot since the beginning Your anatomy is much better now, there's still room for improvement, of course...
Your SB definitely has a pretty amount of what mine lacks: imagination. Fun characters.
I think Milk machine is my favourite.

[Deodatus]

Here are some steps for shading a vehicle a little "a la Keith Thompson".
Enjoy.

[Deodatus]

[jNeumann]

Latest digital work is looking fantastic man. Really like the drawing you did on the wall as well. Good work, keep at it man.

[Deodatus]

3 characters that could be part of the HBO series Carnivale.
I drew them as a quick example for my students end assignment preproduction. And for fun. Ciao.

[Krato]

doing value and anatomy studies would help you improve

[Deodatus]

Hi all.

It has been a while... Mainly because I focused on a lot of other things last year. (like enjoying the summer for one) Still, there are some updates, sketches, doodles that can be showed.

A T-shirt design for my friends new kid, a birth card for other friends/ other kid, Icons/ game content for a Facebook game, a quick sketch and a quick character sketch. Comments and crits are welcome.

@ Krato:thx 4 the tip. I am working on it.
@ jNeuman: thx for passing bay and post.
@ShiNIN: Thx for the nice words and compliments. I want to make more funny characters soon.
@Surion: yes, I am teaching preproduction and some art classes at howest. I hope the Devine course is going well for you. Welcome any time to drop by.

[Deodatus]

Hey. This is a 'ping-pong'-image between my friend/ colleague. We got bored during an hour and the wacom was standing there.... Painting in turn over each others work is big fun! Thx Nick! (http://www.nickmarien.com/) This is the result of our -hum- mutual efforts.

[Derra]

You have a good understanding of space and perspective in a lot of your studies. great work.
