pimp daddy

[Denart]

hey man
How do you get all the chicks!?!
heh

yeah, that birdie is cool


so what do you do? Attending college? Living at home assembling a portfolio? Abducting girls?

[Carnifex]

i dunno how i get em girls.i never get em till the end though.
anyways,i'm currently in art school.

[BlackGuy]

you stopped pimpin to make some art? Congrats. I like your imagination stuff and your quick poses, but I think you need to work on your values more to enhance your longer poses. good shizzle man.

[Dirty C]

hey dude. yeah, reckon gauge might have a point there. tonal studies might be a good point for you to start looking into - monochromatic renderings of, preferably, still life stuff. that'll teach you a lot about observation (seeing where things lie in relation to each other via vertical lines, for instance). Great to see the progression since Prague.

Keep em coming

[Carnifex]

thanx for the suggestions.

[Diego]

sweet new stuff...
I really like these composition studies.
Keep this up.
Cheers

[madplanet]

What a stud. Out of all the new stuff that you posted i really like the workshop badge the best. It's just too cool.

[draw]

Good stuff Carnifex. You seem to have proportion issues with hands and feet. You would do well to study a bit on these they help everything else. Hands are great for expressing thoughts. You have like all, improved in Prague. I like n20.jpg even though it has issues. Keep Drawing!

[Carnifex]

thanx everyone.
draw-spot on! i really need to do that.
madplanet-stud,lol.i don't get them further than the dancefloor.

updates coming tomorrow.

[dCepT]

Good lookin' pimp-daddy!

Like dirty_C said, some value-studies might do ya good! The latest COW looks good, but if the contrast was pushed even more, and you lost the underlying lines it would rock!

Keep 'em coming!

peace

[Carnifex]

ohh loosing lines...that's one of my weakest points. can't work without underdrawing (yet).

[BlackGuy]

i think most artists use understructured lines, just try to clean them up as much as possible when you're done. I usually lose like 80% of mine in the shading, the rest I try to erase as much as I can with a kneaded eraser.

[Carnifex]

after a dsg topic:

random doodling:

hand studies:

sorry for not having more to show today.

[Carnifex]

totally forgot those,they're from prague aswell:



made during marko's random composition lecture,and how to pull attention via contrast.

[Carnifex]

done for ch.o.w.

edit: ohh btw i got my first paid art job. someone wants me to do 5 quick portraits after photos for him for about 100-120 euros alltogether. plus he wants to introduce me to some rather important gallery owners. seems rather fond of my work.

[Carnifex]

just being angry at the world...

[Carnifex]

first off,lines for the dragon huntress:

just a simple zombie with alien slime on him:

a minotaur!

and ye old family portrait:

[Carnifex]

*shameless bump*
for those of you who are watching,please mention it at some point. i can't smell you you know,but i'm a horrible attention sometimes who likes to know that kinda stuff.
*end shameless bump*

[Zord]

Nice 2nd sketchbook Carnifex. The zombie sketch you've got is simple but very defined with it's pose. Liking the family portrait too, the family unit's represented by creatures... yes!

[Carnifex]

thanx man.

small full digi today,no underlying sketch.
still unsure if i should submit to this week's c.o.w. but i guess it doesn't get much better than that (except if you have any suggestions).

[Carnifex]

decided to take it into c.o.w.
and a joke entry for same activity.

[character]

hey dude, you've got some good stuff here. you're definitely improving.
here's the paintover i promised in irc. sorry it came so late, lunch crept up on me and i was very hungry, hehe. here ya go. you already heard what i had to say in irc =)

[Carnifex]

thanx for the paintover man.
only thing that troubles me is that she looks less massive,which is what i was aiming for.
well,next time then.
thanx.

[Azeira]

hey carnifex,

idig your crfeatures. formless, unwholesome, nasty things by the looks of them. very nice. and the back bottom girls, as they make the rockin world go round. keep drawing.

Woodruff

[Calle_]

Hey man, looks good, your lineart is good but i have some issues with the renderings ^^ i think u should spend some more time on it, its very scribbly.
good thing u started painting too =)

[Carnifex]

thanx both of you. calle-you're right,i'm too impatient for rendering most of the time. really slow,controlled rendering that is.
anyways,updates:
doodling.

need to study bird skulls again.

ohhh got myself an awesome brushpen(which should actually be used for calligraphy).

doodling during lessons.

yeah,it really gets boring during art history on a thursday afternoon.

and finally,an abandoned pic for ch.o.w. (didn't participate at all because of lotsa other stuff going on).


hopy y'all dig.
peace.

edit: arghhhhhhhhh bandwidth limit i hate you!

[dCepT]
