Icecold's sketch book, Why so Serious!?

[Icecold]

NickyBeats Killer you say, i find it decent Thanks anyway.

wilkerson Thank you, however i don't have a style yet, i'm still searching, always searching....

ThomasM Thank you, will do!

Danny_K Yeah, i've recently started to collect valuable books and other materials, i'm slowly getting ready to walk in the industry.
A year or more ahead tho. There's still tremednous amount of practice/work to be done.

ryanoir Thank you ^^
Amazon mate, they have everything.
In my honest opinion bridgman is a must, even if you won't follow his style he shows hot to simplyfy and exaggarate where it's needed very well.

BlackDelphin Cris my friend, thank you. You and Danny always were there, when i had hard time. I thank you two from all my heart.

lolbbq Many thanks, we're here to make it happen, ya?

B-Man Around 40 min on each, i'm not a fast working guy, haha.
Need my time to do bazylion of changes here and there.

Night Snake Cool post, keep posting ; )

in2eternity Thaaank youu!

Lotet Ah finally someone loves me! You've made my day ^^

AztcFireFlower Thanks.

gen5 Trying, thank you.

flash jordan Thanks mate, i'll work much harder when i'll finish my 3d animation course. It's something i imagined and won't do that in the future, but i'm learning some usefull and handy stuff anyway.

Sooo! long time no post.
We had eh one week break, first semester has come to an end. 3 more to go!
I've spent this week mostly visiting friends, having fun and such, so there's not much to show. But i don't like posting without any image to show so here they are.

quick brdigeman studies, one random girl from imagination ( with messed up proportions! ) and a wip of my world of warcraft fanart. I won't have much time to paint now, but i'll try to finish this when i can.

[LastGen]

Witam, coraz lepszy jesteś Paweł! Jestem pewny ze Ci się uda naleźć pracę jako Concept Artist.

Great World of WarCraft-Fanart by the way =)

[Andrew Sonea]

Sick update. I love the Bridgman studies being done tonally like that...I should totally do some of my own.

[Surion]

Woooo! Painted bridgman hands! Awesome!

Love the fist one man, scares the crap out of me.

[RaphaelLuebke]

wow great sketchbook!

[BlackDelphin]

Well you certainly aren't lowering your game!
Awesome update!
And for a girl from imagination, that looks pretty good. Will do better next time, i'm sure of it! Look at that arm angle one time,and remember it. An indirect ref of some sort? or even better try it, and then paint the way you feel it? Idk, just randomly looking for ideas to step away from the ref haha
You moved another level with those bridgman hands, now rendering them, you're really figuring them out, aren't you

Danny, i guess you knew what you were getting yourself into, but you just can't stand away from it, can't you heh. It's the joy of it all.
I wish you luck! You'll do it, i know you can. Just don't stop. It'll eventually settle in

[ryan mcshane]

great drawings! the colors are lovely in the first and the bridgman hands are brill
keep it up!

[Danny_K]

YEHAAAAWWW!!!!!!
That's what I'm talking about son! the first one made me wow, nice! the colors on her are really sweet and her face is so rad dude, the only thing needs some work is her pose and lower body as cris already mentioned, the orc is sweet and those bridgeman hands make me cry .
It's a pleasure to see you grow man it really is.

[Icecold]

Thanks guys!

Here's a little , very little... stuff i did recently.

few warmups:





And a drawing that did not turn out so well once i've worked on the hair :/



This morning's photo study:



And few photos from the school, so you can see our working environment.





And that's me, i sure do need a haircut ^^'

[LastGen]

Mogłbyś powiedzieć mi jaka szkoła to jest? Cziekawy jestem czy już idziesz do szkoły artystycznej...W kaszdym razie zmienilesz się w porównaniu do twojej DA-ID ^^
Podoba mi się rysunek włosów.

I didn´t write polish sentences this difficult for quite a long time, so I´m not sure whether it´s all correct

[Emil_]

Thats an awesome looking class room, what school is it?

[Icecold]

LastGen

Perfectly perfect! That is

Od dawna poza ojczyzna huh?
Szkola animacji 3D, chcialem zobaczyc, czy mi to podpasuje, no i niestety nie, ale od czasud o czasu rysujemy i malujemy wiec nie jest tak zle. Ludzie sa swietni, a to liczy sie najbardziej.
A zdjecie z devianta ma ponad 3 lata wiec, troche sie zmienilem, to ktore pokazalemw ostatnim poscie tez ma jakies 2 miesiace.


Emil

Drimagine 3D animation and vfx school.
It turned out that 3d is not the thing i'd like to do after i'll finish it, but i'm learning some usefull stuff anyway.

[BlackDelphin]

When did your hair grow so long?! oO
That's no little update, and you know it!
Awesome! Thanks for showing us the photos too. Very inspiring, and might i add awesome environment you're working in. Wish we'd have places like those back here.

And about that drawing you said you messed it up, well guess what? We learn from our mistakes! Success doesn't so much. That's what i personally learned, and i think it can apply in other cases too.
So mess up a few more of those!

[LastGen]

Niestety tak jest. Od kilku lat nie byłem w Polsce, ja urodzielem się w Niemczech i niestety nie naucziłem się pisacz po polsku...nie jest to takie łatwe dla mnię
Sam nie wiem czy iść na studia w tym kierunku.

Pozdrawiam

[Icecold]

Hello people.

Here's a little fanart, started the sketch on my conceptual design class while our lecturer Kamil was introducing peeps to basic digital painting techniques, while it was nothing new to me i bet someone did find it usefull.

Now here's the piece i've finished at home.



I have some gesture drawings, but i'll take a photos tomorrow.

[Nemome]

God, why ate your drawingsthat good?
My ones arent
Love your character paintings

Keep it up and dont forget to do studies!

[BlackDelphin]

Danny_K Hehe thanks Danny, but i should kick my own ass for being so lazy


Zat Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!

raminafshari Thank you.


Sorry for not updating for so long, but i felt like i needed a break from art.


Here's my entry sketch for a character design contest on my homeland forum.
The guy's a sci-fi smuggler. I'll also do his portrait and spaceship if the school work will let me :/




EDIT: Here's a quick portrait.

[BlackDelphin]

OOh yeah! That's an awesome portrait! I really like the colour scheme; though i somewhat don't agree with that light blue on his cheek haha ;/

Character looks really stable, even with all that gear on him, you still managed to keep the pose.

[Odayga]

Wow...I'm simply blown away by your work, love your use of color as well as your concepts! keep on going man!

[Icecold]

Thanks guys, that poertait was done late at night i even felt like i'm on reverse, like forgot what i've learnt :/


Here's today work for school project, still loose as i don't know if team mates will accept my version, i'll find out tomorrow.

[ryan mcshane]

hehe these girls are so cute i hope they get accepted!
and that portrait in your other post is, ace, oh yeahhhhh

[Danny_K]

the smuggler is cool, and the portrait is awesome looks really convincing and the colors oh my oh my you sure got the hang of it

[ImagineTheEnding]

Awesome art. It's really cool to see how drastically you improved since the beginning. You show so much determination and commitment to learning how to improve yourself and keep doing what you're doing.

[Odayga]

Really like the personas that come out of your characters as well as the color schemes and overall idea.

[Icecold]

Here's his spaceship.

[fragmentedchimp]

Sweet handjobs, no really nice studies, all your digis are looking terrific, drawing from life is rough, but man does it pay off, build that natural library of anatomy in the HEAD.

subscribed, interesting progression
