[PaintMyBrain]

[AlexEh]

I think your on the right track with this lastest solider painting. Nice simple story.

To add some more emphasis on the bomb maybe a slight amount of red in that area may bring it out some more? Not sure how that would look so give it a dab f you havnt already!

[DANKA]

Really good work on the steam giant! I think you are running to the 5 stars!

[zou]

well thank very much for the gif
now i see how much work you've passed on this
but honestly i meant the enviro

keep it mate

[Metal Fingers]

oooooh tralala, I've been staring at your dudeliness thread .gif for waaayyy to long not to have commented in here. I really dig your painting style a lot, good stuff. In that soldier piece, some of the mark making on the ground at the bottom is a bit distracting though. Cheers.

[Cyberman]

hey man, great sb! its so big I just bounced around some random pages, I liked posts #464,468,537 best of what I saw.

[GHill]

Great book! That painting with the soldiers is looking awesome. Nice colors and atmosphere. I like your pen sketches too.

Im currently working on the month chow, the monarc, ill post some wips of it in my next update... heres a update for the jungle scene and a 1 hour speedie!

[Bendragon]

Mate! You are improving! Keep it up cause I'll be watching
See u in the finals for the ChoW hehehe

[no87]

nice work man!! really liking that jungle piece.

[kingkostas]

i love sooo much this little house!!!!!!!!!!!you need more bonus for works like these
you and your enviros!!!I think your blocking of colors etc is better than the jungle piece because it gives a more tactile surface with better brushtroke or something.The jungle have your nice illuminance style but maybe misses some very focus regions to keep the eye a little more?

[oren90]

great update as always man

[RBeek]

good to have you back man.. though i think im a little late with that ;D


Ill be actively following ur sb once more! Keep it up m8 !

[Lakka]

Little house on the rock looks good with the eye going to the house, and it pops out nicelly, and takes your eye.

With the jungle, I think the you've accomplised a wet, swampy feeling in it, and the palette, I think, looks good. However, I think you need to come up with something to move the eyearound and catch the focus like in the house image. Let it be color, texture, sharpness, reflextivity, or whatever, I belive there's an endless amount of opportunities here, and you should go with the one that you feel right.

Nice work, I help you a bit on your progress to the fifth star..

*btw, nice effort on the steampunkguy. It paid off, looks great!

[Chr. Steam]

Love your colors, man!

[PaintMyBrain]

Your stuf is so nice I love the "cabin" by the shore, great colors and everything!

[monsi]

really nice stuff man . loving the speed paints, especially that last one of the cabin on the beach. great design and mood

[zou]

rich texture ! vibrant !

are you working with corel painter or is it photoshop ?

[Anthis]

Was wondering where you went – but those big projects explain things! Really nice concept on the giant. Wonderful details and design. I can’t shake the feeling he does not quite blend in with the environment,. It really looks like an arctic, snowy environment, but how big are those rocks exactly? Having trouble figuring out the scale. Or perhaps it’s the lighting on the giant himself. The warm light source is behind him, but his front seems lit up. You can argue it’s the snow, but at that size? Lastly from looking at the Wip Gif (nice to add!); seems the snow environment was not part of the original plan (correct me when wrong). Adding this late in the process can be troublesome.
I like him a lot as a character though, to lighten up this seemingly critical comment….

Those speedpaints in 727 and 733 are amazing – especially the portraits. I don’t get how you produce a portrait in such a timespan, considering how good the mood and character are. So loose!

I’m sure you’re familiar with the speedpainting threads at Sijun? If not, I think you'll like it.

Keep it going!

[Diarum]

Man those enviro are sick bro. the soldier one is so! sick and those are speed painting damn lol. Nothing really to say other then they look good.

An illustration for an art battle between me and Randis, heres the topic:

"The brave little toaster was soon drafted into the Appliance Marines after his first outing. Unwilling at first, the brave little toaster was soon thrown into combat to be raised by hellfire and the lullaby of mortar strikes. A now cold, broken warrior, illustrate the wartorn, loveless killer In a shit town saloon reminiscing what could have been."

and a fast speedpaint of a robotic mite, and a wip of an interior project

[BlackDelphin]

That brave little toaster is amazing!
It also seems to be something more different from the usual too.

Envo fine as ever..what can i say?! don't stop posting parsak

[PaintMyBrain]

Thx for stopping by. And I have to tell you then, do you have any idea how much you have improven the last 26 pages? I hope you do! the last posts is really amazing, the toaster looks so sad :/ but so beuituflly rendered hehe. The avsolut last drawing shows what a great interior artist you are, you really capture the feeling in the worlds you create. Keep it up Im glad to see you are just getting better and better for every day.
