**ErikR** · September 8th, 2011, 10:14 AM

some arm studies i did a while back

**jonafunart** · September 8th, 2011, 11:06 AM

I like your sketchy brushstrokes on the enviro with the police car. The purple guy looks neat, the armour reminds me of Garrus from Mass Effect. *is watching the live stream*

jonafunart: Thanks ;D, and thanks for watching my stream ^^

I really like #5, lovely texture.

**m0uS3r** · September 17th, 2011, 04:12 PM

You appear to be very confident in your ability to put color down i just wish to see some finished stuff

**DvrJeroen** · September 17th, 2011, 04:31 PM

nice paintings! can't wait to see #8 finished! i like the use of color

**ErikR** · September 17th, 2011, 04:34 PM

A beach study

I could use some critiques on this so if you find any major problems please let me know

**ErikR** · September 17th, 2011, 05:45 PM

Irate Fetus: Thank you

m0uS3r: i will try to get something finished but i usually tend to stop after a couple of hours but i will sure sit down and try to finish both the veichle and my purpish creature

.... hopefully
Jarkuzy: Thanks a lot glad you like em and i will post all my major progress of that painting whenever i get back to it.

Here's a pretty rough value sketch and im off to bed.

**Elz** · September 17th, 2011, 05:52 PM

That last sketch looks awesome, hope you finish it up! Great work so far, keep it up

**shambok** · September 17th, 2011, 07:00 PM

Your line work makes me want to dance ;P ... so vibrant!!! I love how much life and movement those lines breath into your sketches. Thanx for posting. This new sketch is looking amazing ... cant wait to see the finished pic. Thanx for sharing.

**DariusDs** · September 17th, 2011, 07:13 PM

beautiful work

**j-ace** · September 17th, 2011, 07:19 PM

Your concept art is somewhat reminiscent of the early concept art sketches Alien. Very interesting character concepts yet somehow very similar to eachother. I understand though that its your style but I think you could benefit from branching out and trying different things to enhance your portfolio, this would also showcase your versatillity to employers and open up new avenues. Keep it up though.

**glaudarien** · September 18th, 2011, 10:49 AM

Hey man, welcome back! You've defintly improved a lot since i last saw your work - some great line / brushwork you've developed.

I agree with what J-ace M0us3r have said about finishing your work and branching out a little more - this would help a lot atleast for hte purpose of your portfolio and to keep you focused on seeing things through to the end.

Keep it up man, loving what you've done so far.

**m0uS3r** · September 18th, 2011, 06:20 PM

like the last one looking good, i know the feeling of letting something go and stating on something else for example i find laying down colors very boring and that makes me wanna give out on stuff but after i have that nailed and the painting starts to take shape it becomes a lot of fun.

Keep it up!

**ErikR** · September 20th, 2011, 11:43 AM

Single update of the creature

i will reply to everyone in a later post
i will make a gif of all my progress on this one when im considering it finished.
