Damn nice sketchbook here! Lotsa good stuff to look at!

[SEVANS]

Ape with a pencil - Thanks man. Nice Hulkish update too.

[Maerrick]

Hey man awesome work! I love the style you have going on there. Its pretty awesome looking at a page just filled with anatomy. Keep up with your style, i can honestly tell you that your style is going to make you very famous =)

[SEVANS]

Maerrick - too damn kind. Will have to check your SB thread now.

Just moved house and job, haven't done alot lately, will hopefully post some more sketches this week.

[SEVANS]

another update... finally.

[SEVANS]

more pics.

[SEVANS]

Couple more.

[SEVANS]

Some updates from a comic idea I'm collabrating on.
Just some quickish 'problem solving' sketches.

Any crits on the upwards shot of the female would be much appreciated.

Hopefully alot more rough and finished images from this project to come.

[Draniel]

Thank for visiting my SB, your work is really stylized now, and it's sweet!
for the woman...that's a difficult perspective to do, i would find some reference and it will help a lot.
keep on with your cool stuff

[SEVANS]

Thanks Draniel. Still haven't found a good reference, but I just fake it for now.

Gonna try and post some different mediums next, just to break the ink up abit.

[fragmentedchimp]

YEah boi, thats the spirit, different mediums rock the house.
although, your stuff still rocks. maybe splash some color on some of these and see where it goes, could be an adventure.

thanks for stopping by the thread!
cheers and keep it up!

[MeTaL-Mike]

hey man, thanks a lot for the nice visit. You have some nice stuff in there. work on your anatomy and watch those proportions. and keep posting!!

cheers

[SEVANS]

Well heres the next post.
Playing with some hatching and basic digital colours.
Yes, the red females face is too flat.
Plus, a few pages that I didn't scan last time, featuring rough cartoons of Jim Morrison and Elvis Presley.

C & C away.

[Shod]

Your lines are awesome man. And its great to see you giving so much love to the markers!
Also, hell of an improvement since you started this thread!

[SEVANS]

Shod - Thanks man. I can't see the improvement, but you know how hard it can be to be to see your own work with fresh eyes.

[SEVANS]

Here is a pencil to digital colour pic. Started of as a sketch of a skull, I liked the sketch and decided to add colour.

I saved some of the progress.steps too.
C & C away.

[SEVANS]

It's been a few weeks now (i think), so away....

Another bunch o-crap from my sketchbook. Mainly markers and pen, but a few pencil pieces as well.

[SEVANS]

Holy Sh*t, 2 posts in one day. Something must be wrong with me.

[Arrogant Thought]

Hey man thank you for the comment, I have always known my anatomy is a weak point of mine. But! I have been trying to work on anatomy. For me I feel lost looking at actual images. I'm not always sure which lines will give me the desired detail I am always looking for. But I'll have more up soon and I'll probably be working on a lot of anatomy from here on out.

[Arrogant Thought]

Alright man thanks for the tip. For me it's not so much shapes, I get all of that and the 3d construct of everything, i just more or less like to make things my own and I draw right from my mind. Nothing you see in my sketchbook is drawn from a referenced image. If and when I don't forget to bring my Book with me tomorrow I can show you some of my more recent studies. I tend to keep things on a very artistic blend rather then keeping it close to Realism. I like realism but sometimes I think to myself, "if I wanted to paint a perfect or sketch a perfect person I would rather be a photographer."

I don't know if that makes sense.

[Arrogant Thought]

You are very right. Well hey I hope to keep in touch and as soon as I can get some new work up I will drop a reply..
So tomorrow I will try and have something so I can get a little more guidance. Thanks for all the kind help and motivational words.

[SEVANS]

Here's some pencil and pen sketches that I decided to lay some very basic colours under. A page of random stuff and a page of different Batmans.

[nasheer]

Great linework dude! Love the way you making your characters don't look flat dot's using any shading - just the appropriate shapes and lines. BTW: your website is a wip? Coz it allows me to see only homepage no matter which link i click.

[SEVANS]

nasheer - Thanks for the nice comments. As for the website, it's all up and running. Don't know why you would only get the homepage - maybe I was updating it. I'll get my friend who designed it, to read this message.

[nasheer]

Oh i got it. It works just fine under IE. It's not working under Firefox though. BTW: Great cars paintings you got there!

[SEVANS]

Thanks, I've got a few more already sketched out, but just haven't had the urge to finish them off.

The tones on 'ArnieWeb' are beautiful. Airbrush isn't a common material used in this type of forum (that I am aware of ) but you work with it really well. The pic that looks like Hulk split into four on post #17 is brill, the teeth are very small and a bit too plentiful but again the tones of the skin are superb. Keep it up, your style is sweet!

Lou Naylor - Thanks for all the kind words about my airbrushing (the arnie and the hulk pic). I need to do more. I have a half finished pic at the moment, so hopefully that will be posted in a week or two.

Gibb - Thanks for the kind words, and yeah he was exagerated enough.
