    Very nice man. Your figures need some work, but that MechWarrior piece was an excellent comic-book style illustration. You bump it up a notch (especially the lighting and composition) and you'll have some serious portfolio stuff.

    Keep posting!

    Hey there BludHund, thanks for dropping by! You're right about my figures, it's not really my strong point and I'll definitely be practicing more on that

    Overlord for the Xbox360 was released a few days ago. It's a boat load of fun being evil and ordering your minions to do your bidding eheheh. Too bad I cant order them to draw for me, and hence i was distracted from updating


    A self-portrait to make up for the lost time

    I think you should more work/study on the construction in drawing before you start add colors or effects

    Jason Manley said I should look at Bierstadt and works from the Hudson River School. Those are really good master landscape painters! I shall now attempt to do a master study/copy from one of Bierstadt's work. Posting it step by step and hopefully get some good advice from you CA folks along the way


    This is the Original Artwork

    and this is my Work In progress. Doesn't look like much but bear with me

    Bierstadt Work In progress. Still struggling with it, sometimes I feel overwhelmed and laziness would creep in but whenever that happens I would just save it and chill out. Beginning to wonder why there isn't much comments although this SB has 200+ views, should not let this discourage me from trying right?...


    Fight on!

    The detail in the matrix online piece in post 15 is really good, must have taken a while to do all that! I also really liked the thing in post 2. Keep it up.
    The stranger things appear the more real they usually are.

    Putting the Bierstadt project on hold for the moment hehe. A friend of mine asked me to colour her lineart. I was happy to oblige.

    Special thanks to:Aimee Chow for her awesome drawing
