Sup Dan! New Sketchbook - awesome. Can't wait to see what you'll be pouring into this one. Skull study is cool - studies is probably the best way to get used to a new medium.

cheers Dan hope to see more soon!

Merci beaucoup everyone !!
About the tablet.. actually it's not a wacom, it's a genius a5... :s yeah i could find any cheap enough so i had to take that one.
No digis for today though. I havent touched it. Still need to fill my head with all those colors... sorry.
Hope you'll like this one, even though it's not finished yet.

Hey, Nice graphic qualities in the skull. The fighting scene looks nice, hopefully you 'll finnish it!? The back and hip of the guy on the floor looks a bit strange to me.
Nice work
...Et merci pour le feedback!

**Trashy** · October 17th, 2006, 06:42 PM

Hello,

I actually left a comment in your old sketchbook too. Your pencils skills really are great. So did you just get a tablet? In anycase studies really are the way to go. If your using photoshop you might want to check out a thread started by Bumskee- http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=47859

I'm going to keep a eye out on this sketchbook for sure! That fighting scene is intense!

**DanielC** · October 18th, 2006, 05:29 PM

Thanks alot for the support guys!
Darktwin: thanks !!
tiger, thanks man !! Though no digis for today

...
Deodatus: Merci beaucoup!
Cup: thanks ! i'll try
Spade: hehe..colors... man they're driving me crazy

Silvestri: thank you
bhanu: hey my friend! thanks for dropping by
trashy: thanks for the link, it's been awhile since last time i checked his stuff.
i'll start some studies first since i'm a bit lost with colors.

Ok. Took me a bit of time to update this one. Havent touched the tablet though

.... i'm starting right away. So next update will have mainly digis in it. Sorry if you were waiting for some now.
So, in this one, two caravaggios and an sp, approx. 1 hour.

**skullsquid** · October 18th, 2006, 05:34 PM

Gahhhh.

Horrifyingly good Daniel.

The master copies are beautiful and you are finally getting the range of darks that you needed to get to the next level.

Great job!

**Dile_** · October 19th, 2006, 07:15 AM

damn, beautiful sketchbook work! damn!! I suscribed to your awsome sketchbook, keep it up please!!

**Alexandr Pascenko** · October 19th, 2006, 08:02 PM

ouw yeah dude, you have awekining my will to get rid of my blunt artistic senses somehow, jus tlooking at your work. don´t worry about not posting digital, cuz the better you will understand values and ligtht , the better your cooulours will look like if u relie on that. good u studie the old masters because of their contrasts and also u´ll find some interesting armours in them and memorize them if u should draw some from mind.
my fav is the skulldude, looks really interesting and is a very creative idea , jus t only thing that could had been better i think are the eyeholes , i just cant figure out what this dark black in em is maybe make some more dark into them more contrast, but maybe u already know since its not finished, but i hope to see it soo

**Cup of Joe** · October 19th, 2006, 10:47 PM

The first one in that last update almost rocks TOO hard. SP looking great too.
Keep it up man!

**Stonec2** · October 19th, 2006, 10:50 PM

**demented** · October 20th, 2006, 02:51 AM

**bhanu** · October 21st, 2006, 01:16 AM

WOah man great studies,I second what Evildisco sadi, the darks are improving a lot.The skully SP looks kinda cool, I didnt think you'd have bling on your lips though.Wish I could churn out stuff liek that. our composition skills are great too.
Take care bro and yeah waiting for soem digis.

**llothcat** · October 21st, 2006, 06:48 AM

**Meatsworthy** · October 21st, 2006, 08:01 PM

That SP is just too awesome.

**j a k e** · October 25th, 2006, 03:38 AM

Hey Dan. The SP is rockin. I wanted to have a little play with it if that was ok. If you don't want it up just say the word my friend. I hope you like, just added a bit of jake flavour. I hope I didn't kill it

Lovely stuff bro.
