Fallen's SKETCHBOOK...lil update 29.4.13

[Jonathan C]

I'll bet you've never heard this: Your pencils are fantastic!

[LtPlissken]

As I said earlier, your pencil drawings are destroying my mind, the way as they are.

[Fallenangel]

Jonathan C Thank you

LtPlissken Thank you

I had some problems with drawing lately just can't find the inspiration to draw and making only anatomy sketches is really boring.
Here are some sketches, i"ll post the cg stuff as soon as i"ll be near my laptop.

Alex.









this is something that i"m making for Penciljack's monthly contest.

[Fallenangel]

double post

[LtPlissken]

Way to go my friend. You are my hero. BTW; you have a double post.

[Fallenangel]

Thank you


Here is a wip for this weeks chow...

[LtPlissken]

The blurry effect is no good if you ask me.
It takes much away from the painting

[Fallenangel]

Thank you, point taken.

wip part II...

[Fallenangel]

the first two are quite old now but i thought of posting them anyway.
and a wip for this week chow.

[Fallenangel]

one more....

[Fallenangel]

Decided to paint something with every brush in painter....those are the main Acrylic brushes.

[LtPlissken]

You are doing cool, keep practicing.
Every step puts you closer to victory.

[Deodatus]

Great sketchbook! I like your sketches, great contrast an some nice character design in there too! Maybe don't use to much colors together in the paintings.
Keep it up!

[Fallenangel]

LtPlissken Thank you for the support

Deodatus Thank you, i'm still new to the colors world and i find it really hard to find the right color....but i"ll keep practicing.

Alex.

The "finished" version, lost the RIF file cause of a glitch in my laptop, but lucky me saved a small jpg file before the glitch. and i'm to tired to start it all over again.

ah and i added a small sketch of some kind of a dinosaur thingy....enjoy.

[Thélema]

Hi! Your pencil stuff is simply gorgeous :3 keep it up! Cheers.

[Nettle_Mountain]

i absolute love your colourful battlerobots over there! if every nation would paint robots like that, wars would be so much more cheerful!

[FraserMcT]

Your studies are looking great. The pencil one up top with the skull is fantastic. I think this one stands out mostly because you have paid more attention to construction, so the objects looks 3-dimensional. Your Illustrations seem to be much more flat compared, but this may be due to your colour choice. Try to restrict your palette for the mean time to help you control this. Try doing some colour studies with coloured light. See how the light source effects the local colour, then incorporate this into your imaginative works.
Keep up the good fight!

[thesorrow121]

Your pencil drawings are truly great, you have a great eye for value the contrast your achieving is far from what i would be able to do keep up the good work.

[dleoblack]

Hey Alex,
your pencils are so solid! i really like the skull image. your faces are so well done.
just need to improve colors. great palette as well

[teapo]

hot stuff angel... you're very persistent with the digital updates, i love it thanks for the pencil tips I really enjoy your graphite rendering ^-^

[Fallenangel]

Thélema Thank you. I will.

Nettle_Mountain Hhhh...i"m just practicing some colored pencil stuff...so far all i can get is those colorful robot thingies.

FraserMcT Thank you for the visit i definitely need a lot to learn especially about painting and using light and color.

thesorrow121 Thank you

dleoblack Thank you, i'm trying my best to improve my painting skills...just need to practice more.

teapo Thank you . glad you like 'em!

[Fallenangel]

after some time without an update here are some sketches and stuff for Penciljack.com...

[FraserMcT]

Cheers for stopping by my sb.
Looking sweet. Now my main crit would be that some of your faces look a bit flat when they are not on the front on view. I think this is mainly due to lack of construction and thought to the planes of the face. Kchen is brilliant to help with this problem (in my opinion)

One of the most useful links for your structure needs!
Nice work though. I can see that you have been getting into it. So good job!

[teapo]

mmm.... yes yes.. that's what i want to see! 8D haha

[LAL]

Amzing works! your pencil works are so great!!enm...Fallenangel,you are a genius!

[Fallenangel]

FraserMcT
Thank you, i definitely will take you advice and work on that flatness problem, i thought of solving it by my own but now i"ll use your link as a guide.

teapo hhh.... thanks.

LAL Thank you...i"m far from being a genius or at least satisfied with my own art level...so gotta practice, practice and practice.

Here is a COW from me, never intended to enter this cow but just started to draw yesterday and thats what i've got.

[surus]

What's about that female face, you're drawing again and again and again? Is this your reference model? I love your pencil drawings. Keep on posting!

[Fallenangel]

Surus Nope i don't use a model or a ref. I just like to draw that face.
But actually you're right - one of the things that i definitely need o work on is drawing different characters and expressions.

Did you ever wonder how looks a soldier that hasn't slept for 48 hours....here you've got the answer....me right now, very very tired.

[LtPlissken]

I said it earlier, your graphite pencil drawings
are much above from a regular level, but
what you have to do now is to train more at
digital art. Find some tutorials about colors and
rendering different materials, plus try to focus on form
first, and do not try to force details until you get the
form right.
I also noticed the blurriness on all your digital paintings,
but I am not sure where does that effect coming from.
Try a sharpening mask/effect on your finished paintings.
I am not sure, how happy are you being a soldate, but
honestly it was one of my worst period of my life.
Keep it together, and be strong...

[Koto]

Great pencils, dude! Love the one of the girl sitting down. I'd say that the guy looks to be a little small but it's pretty minor. Keep going!
