Isra's sketchbook

**isra-ac** · June 14th, 2012, 03:54 AM

Hello everyone,

after 3 years working on flash video games I decided to focus on concept art and illustration last year. At the beginning with that common feeling of "I'm not good enough to show my stuff" only created my site and posted on DA. Still a bit lost I went to the Massive Black WorkshopSF and got extremely inspired, then joined the Crimson Daggers, pushed my hard work and now I finally decided to open my sketchbook here.

I don't know what to exactly include in this first post so let me just show some of my work, personal or for challenges/assignments and a few studies.

I still have to improve a lot and keep working hard so any feedback will be welcome : )

Next week I start the certificate courses at FZD for 6 weeks and the idea is to start looking for jobs from August, while I keep trying to get better of course

Very pro concept art, I whish to paint digitally like you, the first 3 works are lovely, I don't really like the rest aesthetically, maybe are just my test or maybe there are some real reason about design, concepts, and structure, hard to say

Wow, awesome start. Would have loved to see your drawings when you deemed yourself 'not good enough' to show your stuff here - I bet they were equally fantastic

!

**Eyecager** · June 17th, 2012, 05:17 PM

Phenomenal! Such a stunning start to your SB! Can't wait to see more.

**isra-ac** · June 17th, 2012, 07:02 PM

Wooahh thanks a lot for all the comments and love.

Well, for those curious about my "crap" here some more examples, vehicle studies, out of my comfort zone (the only one I did before is that bike and took me tons of hours) painted on livestream. The car's not that bad but the plane.....is it a joke? XD

and some sketches on paper I drew on the plane way to SG

OMG it's 7AM....time to get some sleep

**isra-ac** · June 18th, 2012, 04:31 AM

Plane design from imagination with obvious touches from my studies hehe

**SteFlack** · June 18th, 2012, 05:12 AM

Awesome work Isra, great to see you on here.

**isra-ac** · June 27th, 2012, 12:08 PM

Thanks a lot for the comment Stephen

I finally found some time to update my sketchbook so here we go with the stuff done in my first 10 days in Singapore, some of them for FZD others on my livestream for fun.

**Mike L** · June 27th, 2012, 03:44 PM

Terrific SB Man! As much as I enjoyed the finished work, it was great to see some pencils too! Outstanding.

**Royzy** · June 27th, 2012, 04:12 PM

Hot damn! I'd love to see more WIPs, just to see how you get to these fantastic finished pieces. Keep us posted

.

**isra-ac** · June 28th, 2012, 10:38 AM

Thanks a lot for the comments, much appreciated

Here's a random character I painted today on my livestream

And Royzy, I have some wips on my Crimson Daggers sketchbook but it's required to be a member to see them (it's free to register tho)

**isra-ac** · July 4th, 2012, 12:20 PM

**Szynkiewicz** · July 5th, 2012, 12:04 PM

I like the drastic improvement of your design skills! Keep on the good work Isra!
