ok, some woman study directly from my head before I go to sleep...

**Azrael** · October 9th, 2006, 09:13 PM

Your lines above are loose and confident. I like the color variations in the painted piece too. Ipost some more man.

**mant-raz** · October 10th, 2006, 07:47 PM

..few more, I'm not really happy with them. Maybe I should start with some references...

**ZombieSheep** · October 10th, 2006, 08:16 PM

I love how smooth your line work is, and I hope to see more soon! The colouring on the sci-fi cop definitely sets a post-apocalyptic mood.

**madhatter106** · October 10th, 2006, 09:33 PM

The painting on the first post is great - just looking at it, you get a great sense of the volume and shape, even though much is in murky shadow. The background is a nice touch, too...look forward to more...

Welcome to the forums! I really like the light effects. I can't still do those on my computer properly lol

**mant-raz** · October 15th, 2006, 03:32 PM

...few pencil sketches made during my illness (I'm still ill)...please give me some advices about pencils and paper (what should I use) and of course c&c will be appreciated...

**mant-raz** · October 26th, 2006, 05:42 PM

ok, I'm back. Finally I've bought my first sketch pad! Here are some sketches:

**max xiantu** · October 26th, 2006, 10:55 PM

Interesting style. Your line quality is excellent.
I would definitely like to see more like the first post :.

**mant-raz** · October 28th, 2006, 07:49 AM

few more:

**Olle Werme** · October 29th, 2006, 08:30 AM

Nice studies mant-raz. Keep up with the pencils and post some more digitals, those first ones really blew me away.

please give me some advices about pencils and paper (what should I use)

I haven't tried all too many different brands but my favorite so far is Derwent, 2B, I love 2B. As for paper, I haven't found anything that can match simple copy paper but that's probably just a question of taste, use whatever works for you.

Awaiting more

**mant-raz** · November 4th, 2006, 06:04 PM

thx Olle, but sometimes it's hard to get real dark with 2b, I just started to explore this field and I realised I need to put black 4-5 times before i get good effect...something beer driven here:

bad style, but gave me some good studies with 2b black...inspired lil' bit by berychon...started to admire his works...

**mant-raz** · November 14th, 2006, 07:26 PM

**mant-raz** · November 15th, 2006, 09:06 PM

ok, another one, still waiting for your feedback...:/

**Niva.** · November 16th, 2006, 01:33 AM

You sir are a good artist, I like what you've done here. Especially like the work in #4, I need to do that myself! I need a vacation damnit!

**mant-raz** · November 28th, 2006, 09:55 PM

night sketches (from references):

**max xiantu** · December 5th, 2006, 04:45 PM

Really cool environments. I like the colors a whole lot.
I'd like to see them developed even more. Maybe some details, alternate angles etc.
Good arting :.

**mant-raz** · December 7th, 2006, 12:38 PM

it's like...who has banana?

**designboot** · December 7th, 2006, 02:33 PM

Heh .. skąś znam te prace

pozdro

**mant-raz** · December 7th, 2006, 07:08 PM

hahah yeah I know all about sever changes. I just changed domains so I have a ton of broken images

Anyways, your environment pieces are great! I love the sense of depth and the use of color you have. They are definitly your strongest pieces. I haven't seen enough people drawn from you to comment on anatomy and such, so for now all I can say is great work and keep it up!

**mant-raz** · December 11th, 2006, 08:00 PM

and again, fighting with composition.

**designboot** · December 12th, 2006, 05:24 AM

Co ten koleś z nią robi?
W każdym bądź razie teraz to mega dziwnie wyglada.

pozdro

**spudstudios** · December 12th, 2006, 06:16 AM
