Thanks, guys. Sorry about the image softness. This was supposed to be a sketch, but I got a little carried away. images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif I think it should look okay when it's printed with a ...

This is my take on a character by Enrico Casarosa. I don't know the name of the character, but he was a favorite of mine. The book this is for is black and white, but I added the sepiatone for a nosta ...

Thanks, y'all. images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Akolyte - Thank you very much. It's hard to have hard edges without things looking too digital. I'm constantly fighting with myself over how defined things should be. Glad you think it's working. ima ...

Rockin! Love those big fat brush-strokes! Wish I were better with painter. The interface just pisses me off to no end. This is really amazing, though. Can't wait to see more! images/smiles/icon_smile ...

These are great! The first one is just amazing! The light is like looking through a stained-glass window at sunset. Just beautiful. These are very nice and loose - especially for using a graphire! Tho ...

Wow. I'm in awe of the atmosphere you've achieved in the first two paintings. They're just beautiful! Your sense of light and depth has a romantic quality like the fond memory of a place you wish you ...

dixter - Thank you!

icannon - Thanks again, Chris. images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Hey fleab. This is really nice. You've juggled a lot of information and managed to keep things from getting too busy. My only real crit would be that the wall under the steps feels a little too lit. I ...

Sorry if anyone has already seen this elsewhere, but it's the latest thing I've worked on. It's for an article about an engineering team that invented an electric coat then tried to figure out how to ...

Hey Socar. Nice work as usual! I really like how you treated the water and the folds on the rats skin. Makes it look hairless. The subdued colors are really effective too.

Wow! That's simply amazing.

I like the big jaw - more like Morpheus, less like Fishburne. The ears are pretty raw compared to everything else, and he's missing that little nose clip-on thingy on his ...

Tanis - Thanks! images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Boom - As long as it oozes! Thank you! images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Cool! Nice model!

Take this with a grain of salt as I'm not a 3d person:

I think the values of the background are alright, but the figure doesn't have any real dark shadows on her (other than the h ...

I think it's a nice layout, although a little left-heavy. Is there type that hasn't been placed yet to help balance things out and fill dead space?

It might be nice to reuse the viewmaster reel shape ...

Drimmen - Ha! I never even considered which direction the sun would be setting from, but I've never been to the west coast so the sun has always set inland for me! images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Worked mostly on simplifying the figure and pushing the color further. Also toned down the money in the water a little.

Beeeeautiful. Really nice pages! The page of sleeping commuters is so funny. I've pissed off (or just freaked out) so many people sketching on the metro North, it brings a tear to my eye. images/smil ...

renren - Well, thank you! Maybe one day my process won't be quite as haphazard. images/smiles/icon_smile.gif Oh, how I long for that day... I'm hoping to add a second page of illusration thumbnails ...

Man, I totally misread c's original comment. I'm such an idiot. I'm with you now, though. :P

Overworking is probably my most common mistake. I'm going to have to sit back and think about this now tha ...

Really nice work, subliminal.

The concept drawings are quite stunning. I'd also be curious to know if they were for a particular project, or just some brainstorming. You've got a pretty good handle ...

Photos are a good place to start, and you definitely want some reference material to help you add those little details which give a background personality.

I watch way too many movies, but learned a ...

Thanks, psy. images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon. Great story that involves comic books during the 1940's.

What kind of work do want to be doing when you get out of art school? Something more specific than art with computers, right? images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

Graphic design has more to do with designin ...

Hi nil900.

I did a quick color sketch of what your image made me think of. Hope you don't mind...

This thread started in the Finished Work/Gallery section and got moved here.

That's great, Red. images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I keep wishing the colors were bolder, and then I think "Why? It looks great!" And then I wish the colors were a little bolder, and then I think "why ...

Didn't have time to get through your whole site yet, but the stuff in the digital section is really nice! I really like your sense of color and composition.

I'd say more, but I'm in the middle of an ...
