update on the deployment scene

**Vablo** · February 3rd, 2011, 05:29 AM

Nice paintings mate, I really can see improvement here.

The tankscene is building up looking great, especially the lighting and shadows work very well on that one. Also, nice angle on the intergalactic postman. Keep it up!

**Rotor** · February 3rd, 2011, 06:09 AM

That UPS robot piece is killer!
I also like where the latest setting is going, maybe start adding points of light/interest with a wider set of values? It already has sense of depth to it.
Very cool digital stuff in this Sketchbook, keep it up!

**GEB** · February 3rd, 2011, 06:23 AM

Really nice SB, you've got some awesome designs in here

**MaFeng** · February 3rd, 2011, 07:16 AM

there are so many fantasy work.You sb is good.
post more please.

**Partisan** · February 3rd, 2011, 10:58 AM

study out of imagination ..ATM my goal is to learn from Adrian Smith and Paul Dainton which both have a great stile

I am using a method I call Obsergination ^^ ...its a mixture between observation and imagination ...I start by copying a certain part of the face ( mouth, eyes nose etc...) drawn by one of the two and than develop the face out of this part using my imagination , that way I am learning from them and at the same time I develop my own "stile" hopefully interweaving the two into something new

**brenthollowell** · February 3rd, 2011, 11:05 AM

im seeing definite improvements, keep at it!

**Medusoid** · February 3rd, 2011, 12:00 PM

DUDE!!! YOu gotta try selling that to UPS for an ad or something, I'm sure that they'd at least take a look at it. XD

**Partisan** · February 3rd, 2011, 01:14 PM

your sketchbook is so inspiring! love it!

**Partisan** · February 4th, 2011, 11:18 AM

WRappiii thank you ^^

here is another head from imagination ...though it looks quite sketchy and I would be more than happy if I could say it is a sketch ...I have to be honest this crap took me about 3 hours....I know ...I suck ...*sobs*...weeks of practice ahoy ....

**Partisan** · February 4th, 2011, 02:16 PM

update CHoW

**Partisan** · February 4th, 2011, 03:47 PM

almost finished I think

**Partisan** · February 5th, 2011, 07:51 PM

thought of starting a sum-up of what ive learned on a periodical base ...think monthly it will be.

1. SUM-UP

1. get loose....I found out that I have a massive problem in not working into things to much, I do want to achieve a loose and realistic look in a the foreseeable future

2. I practice to little on anatomy .

3. My use of colors is to much like in a comic, as is my anatomy.

TASKS FOR THE UPCOMING MONTH

1. Mainly studying the work of Adrian Smith, Paul Dainton, Daarken , Kekai Kotaki and a few others

2. more practice on the male anatomy with fixation on the head and face

3. colour-studies as my colors are all to much like in a comic/manga/anime ( I hate that fact ! )and dont work well together

so long
Seb

**NickyBeats** · February 5th, 2011, 07:55 PM

yo man, that tank scene is really coming along nicely! and the UPS challenge piece looks wicked. your getting damn good my man. keep it up!!

**Partisan** · February 5th, 2011, 09:58 PM

so starting out with colour-studies...this on is inspired by Daarkens colour palette and took my about 20-30 mins its mainly about colour and mood

**Partisan** · February 5th, 2011, 10:58 PM

my final for CHOW 231

**Odayga** · February 6th, 2011, 11:12 AM

Your improving extremely fast, love your characters and how you really engage your viewer. keep it up : )

**Partisan** · February 6th, 2011, 05:16 PM

NickyBeats and Odayga Thanks guys !

so here is another study, main interest again as for the rest of the month : colour and mood, took me about 1 hour

so long
Seb

**Partisan** · February 6th, 2011, 07:38 PM

and another 30min colour/mood study before going to sleep
PRO
-very loose nevertheless established a focal-point in the mid-ground
- colour is quite "realistic"

CONTRA
- to little contrast
- overall to bright yet

so see you guys tomorrow
Seb

**~KJK~** · February 6th, 2011, 10:14 PM

it seems like i got you added to my signature afterall! :3 good updaties mate, keepity uppity!

**Partisan** · February 7th, 2011, 12:52 PM

and going further with the studies this time from this picture :

by Kekai Kotaki

it might not look very good and its simply crap compared to Kekais work , I totally know that ^^ but its a small stepping stone ..and for this part I am quite happy with this piece , about 1,5 hour of work

PRO
- establishing loose lines more and more with additional focal point
- colours blend into each other very good
- slightly more contrast and better values

CONTRA
-forms arent very good, I need to study more general forms like armour and stuff as many of my characters do look generic

so long
Seb

**Medusoid** · February 7th, 2011, 01:11 PM

DUDE! Shut up now!!! How dare you say anything even remotely bad about this!!! That lightning is epic, That thing looks like the damn scariest mother fucker ever. Just be sure not to say anything loud enough for him to hear it or your drawing may revolt.

But dude seriously this rocks, and the only thing I'd look at is his left hand, it might be a bit distorted

Great updates by the way

**Partisan** · February 7th, 2011, 02:38 PM

Parsakoira thanks for including me into your signature ! means a lot to me !
Medusoid oh stop you make me blush ^^ thanks mate ! and about the hand the whole thing is very WIP ATM ^^

going further on the last piece

**Partisan** · February 7th, 2011, 04:48 PM

last update for today, hope you all like it cause I am relatively happy ....sure its a long way to go but its ok ^^

so enjoy and see you tomorrow
Seb

**RyanRyan** · February 7th, 2011, 04:57 PM

IMHO you should bring that atmospheric grey in behind the white figure in the middle. There is no contrast otherwise and the figure blends in too much.

**kingkostas** · February 8th, 2011, 07:25 AM

Lovely stuff mate!!!nice training your doing. I like the values u have done in 214#, limited and accurate in many points. I like this last work, i think i would increase the contrast a little. U are improving a lot. Keep upgrading the drawing skills.

**Partisan** · February 8th, 2011, 08:50 AM

RyanRyan you may be right but I tried to make him look like he is actually part of the sorounding nature, will see if I work into that

kingkostas hey hey thank you mate means a lot to me if you like it !^^ will try to edit around with curves and contrast will see where it gets

so here is my start on todays practice piece

see you later
