ALWAYS ON A MISSION…The Sketchbook-GHOST RIDER UPDATE!

[carstenbiernat]

Hey Guys,

I am always on a mission to improve my art…therefore it is time to start my sketchbook on CA! Here you will find most of my finished artworks and sketches. But you can also visit my Blog for all my latest stuff.



Let’s start with some finished artworks and sketches from the past couple of months. It is mostly comic related stuff, but that’s what I really love to draw and paint.


















This is a compilation of my “100 One Hour Portraits” I had done last year.



More stuff coming soon!

very cool stuff, the 1hour portraits is definitely something i need to attempt myself.

[wooden mango]

You have some awesome stuff! I would kind of liek to see wome of your roughs and sketches, just out of curiosity and to get a better sense of how you work.

[carstenbiernat]

@davi Thanks for the help and also for the nice comment about my stuff. The One Hour Portrait Series was really fun and helped me to understand a lot about value. Just try it and have fun!

@wooden mango Thanks! I start with some loose and tiny scribbles and even I can´t read them sometimes But I will post something about my painting process sooner or later.

Magnificent, nothing else needs to be said.

[carstenbiernat]

[NickyBeats]

[Divine]

[carstenbiernat]

@ NickyBeats Yeah, Batman is the best and it is always fun to paint him!

@ Divine Thanks for your nice reply!

Here is my latest Spiderman artwork. I wanted him to watch directly to the viewer’s eye while he is climbing the walls. But there is always some kind of danger in the air…

Hey Guys,

this is my latest Hulk artwork. The main idea was to show Bruce Banner absorbed in thought while he is walking. He always tries to keep the beast in the cage, but the beast wants to break out all the time…

Here is a side portrait of the Ghost Rider!

Amazing dude, just amazing, the way to show emotion on your pieces is great.
I think the hulk one is the one I like the most, I would've played a bit with Bruce's shadow, making it a bit more "hulk-like" you know? But that's just me, of course, "I would've" if I had your skills...., right now I can only dream

Keep posting, these are awesome!

[carstenbiernat]

Thank you for the nice comment about my work, fernandoart! Making the shadow of Bruce Banner more like a Hulk shape is a great idea. I will use it in an upcoming artwork for sure.

[Jyou]

I'm really inspired looking at this. time to start sketching more!

[NickyBeats]

hell yea man, ghost rider looks beast!

[carstenbiernat]

Have fun Jyou and thanks for the beast NickyBeats!

[carstenbiernat]

This is my latest Batman artwork. Painting him, the Penguin and the Joker was just fun!

Great work bro...can u tell me how to make posts and sketchbook cause am a new user here.. thx...

[theUNKNOWNsketcher]

Very nice last one! )

[carstenbiernat]

Next to my digital work I am currently doing a lot of traditional pencil drawings. Here are my latest two pieces…the Punisher and Spiderman.

[carstenbiernat]

Here is my latest traditional pencil drawing…the almighty god of thunder Thor! Just enjoy it!

[carstenbiernat]

Here are my two latest Captain America sketches. The first one was all about the pose and the second one was just a quick and loose attempt to capture some of Cap’s emotions.

[carstenbiernat]

This time it was all about Daredevil. He is such a great character to draw and I think there will be more…sooner or later.

[carstenbiernat]

Well, I guess sooner is always better than later…therefore here are my two latest Daredevil pencil drawings.

[carstenbiernat]

This is my Venom artwork for my villain’s poll on deviantArt. I started drawing Venom, but somehow Spidey showed up and is now trying to stop him from destroying the city…Hope you enjoy it!



I am currently using a mixture of traditional pencils, watercolors/acrylics and digital. This seems to be a good and fun way to give my artworks a more painterly and lively look.

[carstenbiernat]

Here is the second piece for my villain’s poll and it is all about Dr.Doom! I wanted to show him in front of his own banner while he is generating some destructive energy bolts with his hands.

I am still playing around with a mix of traditional and digital. It is really fun and I am curious what can be achieved by using this kind of mixture.

[carstenbiernat]

Here is the fourth artwork for my villain’s poll and this time it is Apocalypse. It was the first time for me drawing and painting him and I tried to make him as big and powerful as possible.





I am still working and playing around with my mixture between traditional and digital. Therefore I have also posted my initial pencil drawing. This time I was using more black outlines within the painting, because I wanted to keep the feeling of the drawing.

[carstenbiernat]

This is my drawing showing the man of steel punching through steel!

[carstenbiernat]

Here is a little head drawing of Wonder Woman. The main idea was to capture her beauty and show a more sensitive site of her.
