Gloominatis stuff -march 5th

**p sage** · December 12th, 2012, 01:09 AM

Well, congratulations Cristof on the Deathline goals! Seems you really made some big changes, and your work has gone up in quality quite a bit.

Hope you're finding your smaller apartment fun and that it's an easy place to stay and draw/work.

Looking forward to the next big year for you and where your art goes.

What a beautiful painting I love the flow of it. The skulls are great too.

**Flaskpost** · December 13th, 2012, 03:58 PM

Fuckin sweet work, lately! Really impressive level ups!
I like the last one alot, looks like it has a red underpainting almost. Really cool!

**Gloominati** · December 13th, 2012, 06:40 PM

p sage- thanks man yepp I'm looking forward to that too

meteorcat. thank you very much

flaskpost- hey thanks man!! Yepp I actually tried to paint it like an actual oilpainting, so the red underpainting is really there, not just fake. Really cool handling stuff like that like a traditional medium

Hey guys. so here is a little update with some pencils and some more digital experimenting forcing myself out of that nasty comfortzone!

Sooooo the thing is that I would update this sb with my daily sketches on a daily basis iiiiiiif I wasn't such a lazy piece of shit, so I will update this thread once a week from now on. I will, however post my daily stuff on my facebook as I finish it (taking a photo with my phone and updating it right away is just so much cooler than this forumstuff).
SOO if you do want to see daily updates and some more blah blah please feel free to friend me on facebook riiiiight here: https://www.facebook.com/christof.grobelski

yepp thats all for now. seee ya

**Gloominati** · December 15th, 2012, 06:56 PM

so here we go with todays digital sketch. Ah man I feel that this is exactly what I need to do right now to push myself further and further. These are so mcuh unf and I'm learning so much, crazy!

**lionheartGFX** · December 15th, 2012, 07:07 PM

amazing digital work

also i got a question are those skulls from head? if they are god DAMN you got a great eye and execution :0

**Yemi775** · December 15th, 2012, 08:48 PM

beautiful man, absolutely beautiful!

**MeteorCat** · December 16th, 2012, 08:31 AM

This image has so much emotion and drama. The characters expression is excellent. Gloominatis, you just never fail

**Gloominati** · December 16th, 2012, 06:22 PM

lionheart- thanks man. Nope those skulls are drawn from life

yemi- thanks dude

Meteorcat- thank you

Sooooooo for a start to get back to pencildrawing again I drew most of the stuff from reference just to get used to it again. So now it's time to push things further and get some drawing from imagination going. so there we go

sorry for the rather bad shots, I think I might have to get a scanner afterall

**Flaskpost** · December 16th, 2012, 06:42 PM

You´re definitely taking big steps foreward! I sense that you´re kicking it up a few gears! Good shit.
Doing freelance full-time now?

**MeteorCat** · December 17th, 2012, 03:02 AM

Am I becoming stalkery by posting almost everyday here?

I love ze pencil work!

**Gloominati** · December 18th, 2012, 07:02 PM

flaskpost. yea time to jump on the improvement bandwagon again. Nope not fulttime freelance yet but it'S so cloooooose

Meteorcat- haha feel free to visit as much as you want

sooooooo little update with the usual speedpaint and one sketchbookpage. Sticking to working from my mind, and boooooooooy those pencils right here are CRAZY bad, but hey it's a starting point and I know where I want to go with these so I'm well on ym way I guess

**MeteorCat** · December 19th, 2012, 03:53 AM

The lighting is great on the speedpaint. Very dark, gloomy and mysterious
I also love the strokes on the pencil but it seems like all the girl's have really big noses. Nonetheless it looks good

**Gloominati** · December 19th, 2012, 05:47 AM

yepp those pencils are completely off. getting those proportions right with this kind of foreshortening is incredibly hard for me right now, which is just awesome, soooo much to learn, I love it

**magicpudding** · December 19th, 2012, 05:55 AM

You got it all going on here, especially your most recent posts. I really enjoy seeing all those tight pencil studies in combination with your more painterly digitals. Light and shadow for emotional drama is something I pick up very strongly in your work. Looking forward to seeing more. Good going.

**RaphaelLuebke** · December 19th, 2012, 07:34 AM

meteorcat- thank youuuuu

hellouuu people. Soooo I dug out that crazy old scanner I had somewhere in the basement for years now because I believed that I could not make it work with windows 7 buuuuuuuuuut as it turned out I did work after fighting with it for a bit. So yay for that and here we go with some more pages. I will try to actually paint something to put in here but to be honest, drawing in my sketchbook is pretty much everything I want to do right now

**Gloominati** · January 30th, 2013, 07:38 AM

**meticulous** · January 30th, 2013, 12:32 PM
