update...

[DeKal]

damn dude. i love the guy sitting all hooked up with wires....but, i like the sketch better than the colors! and i like his mouth better in the first sketch. i dont know..maybe there isnt enough contrast in the character? same thing for the the little girls face..but i really love the overall images. a lot

[REDredux]

Delmar, your linework has so much expression in it. Great movement, energy - yet you still manage to deliniate form so well. You really communicate so much with a well-turned line.
Loved the early work in the sketchbook, so by page 12, eyes nearly popped out. To see how far you've managed to push it with colour is nothing short of inspiring. I'm just new in town, so you'll seem me back here often: to see where you go next and when in need of a little inspiration. Thanks for sharing your talents.

Dekal...Hey what's up mate! thanks for the feedback on the last piece, I tried to get more contrast in it . I think the update is much better now...but I'm not sure about the bg yet (colorwise)..

REDredux...hey man, thanks a lot. I'm glad you like my stuff...please come by as often as you want and leave some crits....

here's the update

[RokasButkys]

Excellent stuff man !!
Im impressed and inspired

[Delmar]

DoctorPencil...Thanks man!

Made a drastic but necessary change on the bg.....it really works better now. Some refining and i will call this piece done

[cout<mecha]

Interesting process. It would be nice to know what your are going for with this one.

[Flaskpost]

awesomeness, dude! i think you are losing a bit of contrast in this latest update tho?
maybe turn it to grayscale mode for a second and check the values?
the dark background versus his lit up face was better, than his bright face versus the bright background as it is now, in my opinion.
keep the updates comin!

[jatherip]

wtf arent you updating? we want more of your awesome work!!!!!

[Delmar]

Hey guys, hope you're all doing well!
thanks a lot for the feedback!!!......I've moved into a new domicile so the last 5 weeks i had no internet and hardly time to draw ..... man it's good to be back on the drawing table...wuuhuu hehe .

Some stuff/ sketches from the last days, all from imagination.....I got asked again to make the new "Der Bagger" Cover, a magazine from vienna, the topic was machines.....it looks really cool printed, got it by mail yesterday.!!

...more soon!!

[Koto]

What a great art dump! So many cool sketches and colours. Big fan of the girl dipping her hand in that amazing turquoise water.

[DeKal]

thanks for the words in my sb man. awesome update. really like the tribal chick, 3 up from the bottom..and the girl sitting on the edge of the building or where ever she is...and cant forget that creature too. great sketch work. you know i love your style dude

[Bendragon]

Nice stuff in here! I like your loose sketches. Just the odd time some of your character's poses seem to be a lil stiff, but with the sketches they dont seem to be a problem. Im wondering if this is lost in the rendering process? Anyhoo... Good work! Rock on!

[drd]

Those are some really interesting brushes! I'll have to play around with my brush settings and see if I can get some equally interesting strokes.

Awesome SB man, keep it up!

[Delmar]

Koto, Dekal, drd....thanks a lot guys!

Bendragon....Thanks....and yeah, as I'm not that confident in coloring I tend to overwork some of my stuff. I'll do my best to keep them fresh.!

Here'S a piece I started on yesterday.....kind of stuck in the colorscheme again...we'll see...hehe. and a sketchy girl.

suggestions and critics would be great.

[Delmar]

update....!
sleepy time now..

[blexano]

Love your sketchbook!
Great style! Your faces are awesome!

Your skteches and doodles are very dark and moody so I was surprised when I saw those bright colors!

I liked that dark background better on that burning-head-guy but I see where you're coming from.

I feel adventure in the last one!
Thank you for sharing. =)

[Delmar]

hey blexano, thanks a lot for the kind words!

luness....no no, thank you sir! always a pleasure knowing you're arround.

I had the absolutely great pleasure to have my portfolio reviewed by Jason Manley and John English last weekend.
It was soooooo great and helpfull, not only to here the crits on mine but
also watch all the others getting crits and suggestions on their pieces.
Man this a teaching method right up my alley..learned so much.
And I'm really happy they liked some of my stuffman i swear my heart was in my pants....
.....however Jason suggested to get some more sophisticated character design stuff in my portfolio....

....So here is some work from the last days amongst others a characterdesign for a futurecrossbowsoldier (yeah, i know)
....minor update on the skyrider, I'm not sure about that piece , and other fun stuff......they all need still some finishing and touch ups.

Back to the drawing board!
