Thanks for looking buddies!

[DanijelC]

Cool pencils and studies, but you're really killing it with that last piece. Definitely curious to see it finished.

[Christoffer]

Wow! I looked through your earliest stuff and saw a post of mine from like 3-4 years ago.
Now I see you've become something of a genius. Bravo. I'm deeply impressed, man.

[Sebastian Gromann]

DanijelC + Christoffer Great to hear your warm words, mates!




Here is the final level for our platformer game, which was made for university.


It's called "Super Dash Dude" and you can play it online HERE !
Are you able to survive difficulty "What" ? I'm curious to hear your thoughts.
(One little hint: you just need to press "space" a few times to start and should also press the run button pretty much the whole time while playing!)

[FAST ART]

Characterdesign is very great!

KiBa Yeah, these still need alot more pushn'! Thanks mati mate!



still in progress !
some more pencils sooon!

[kikindaface]

hey dude, really nice skills ! Here are my 2 cents : for the last painting, you should try to find a way to create more contrast around the helicopter, which i think is the focal point, right ? it took a few minutes for me before noticing it ! and i was more attracted by the waterfall next to the helicopter ! also you should put a bit more contrast to better fell the separation between foreground, middleground, and background, to create more depth, right now, you have about the same values a bit everywhere ( exept on waterfall ) ! I hope it's helping you ! keep it up dude !

[Fetsch]

nice work dude, the environment looking dope. Cant wait for all the new stuff you've been up to!

[Tef]

Wow dude ! Your environment is amazing ! Very nice work

[Nikoh]

Tasty enviros !

[p sage]

Man... your pencils are looking creamy http://i686.photobucket.com/albums/v...sdgvsdfsdf.jpg

So much good stuff so far. Love the platformer/sidescroller. We did something similar for our senior college project

Nice job on this last painting. Feels epic. You're doing the right stuff, man. You have some great momentum. Push yourself to Dave Rapoza levels!

[Call0ps]

that environment is looking really good! keep bombarding this thread with more goodness =3

[Tawnos]

I love the pencils! You just always have really nice and interesting designs imho, plus I love the style!
You just inspired me to pick up a pencil again after a year of not drawing!


How did you program the game? Even the menu looks nice and fluid, the game is quite hard, though

[Sebastian Gromann]

Hey guys, thanks alot for your warm words! The Ca.org support is just super!




Aww, summer was great, but I guess I should remove the flour now and get back on track! :3
There are lots of projects coming up for me which will cause regular updates i suppose.





an environment I gave up on, hehe -the clamminess decreases my mood maybe continuing with the previous version at some time.
But a new one is almost finished which I'm much more satisfied with and will post it in a couple of days I guess!





and some sketches

[kevin_]

your character and environment work are both very good! especially like you environments though!

[skMOP]

really frickin' awesome sketchbook. must learn how to paint environments like you o_o

[PieMonster]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!

[Philipp Scherer]

you are looking fresh and sexy!

[zou]

when seeing threads like yours, i wanna practice more and more to progress

[Jenny Jacobs]

Aww don't give up on that environment it was turning out good, but yeah the overuse of rain texture in the last update was a bit dizzing to the eye, but the one before it was so nice! I love the rock textures.

[kingkostas]

awesome as usual mate!!! I prefered the enviro without the effect.or maybe if itr was less. But interesting anyway

[Sebastian Gromann]

kevin_ Yeah i think that they are still stronger, but i wont give up on them though Thanks alot man!

skMOP Thats a huuge compliment! Thank you!

PieMonster Duuuude! I keep refreshing your blog every fjasdkdfsgzacking day :3 ....srly.

Philipp Scherer Thanks buddy!

Jenny Jacobs Yeah, wasn't meant to be very serious though, just experimenting! Thanks alot for that pointer! Take care

kingkostas Thanks mate! I'm totally nodding in agreement. Glad you stopped by again Loving your recent updates btw so keep on posting please!







Here are some more sketches,






an interior study,




and an underwater station ( bigger version http://sebastiangromann.blogspot.de/ )




Hope you dig and would love to hear your critique and notes

[Jovian M]

digging the fuuuuck out of your lines. seems to be a little awkwardness w/ the proportions on those more cartoony figures, but you're still killing it. that interior study is fucking nuts. The underwater station looks fucking killer, too. Right now it doesn't seem like there's much of a focal, though. My eye's being lead by the direction of the pipes/ceiling and the track, but there's a light just as bright as the lights on the tracks off to the left, and nothing really eyegrabbing happening anywhere. It's really well painted and looks sick as fuck, though. This piece was looking promising as fuck, but i think you mudded it up a bit w/ the filters and shit. I definitely prefer the previous iteration of it, but i get what you were going for w/ the mood and shit. stoked to see more, man.
