Sketchbook: Walid Feghali

Feroyn

Hello Polycount Forum!
I've heard great things about this forum, so now I'm starting my own little journey here.

Name: Walid Feghali
Age: 23 in Nov.
Residence: Sweden
Occupation: Studying mechanical engineering, mastering in Sound&Vibration.

I'm also a composer for media (TV, Games, Movies, Commercials).

Let's get some artwork rolling here to get the critique and comments going, I can maybe showcase some of my music here too if people would enjoy that (and possibly critique on that as well!)

All right then!

I thought I'd start out with where I am today after my 1-2 years of a bit more serious digital painting. Never gone to school for it, just good old practice at home while not studying!

Some more stuff! (I've basically done these this last half year, I've noticed a lot of improvement so far!)

And yet more... I love to do speedpaintings to keep my motivation up. It's hard to keep up with music and concept art while studying engineering... But I'm trying my best!!

So here's where I am today!! Not sure how to post these images though, seem to get quite crowded in here... Correct me on how to do these sketchbooks if I'm doing anything wrong! Critique very much appreciated.

Remade an old speedy, Are there too dark values here? I also tried to make the image balanced, to not let one eye wander too far out to either side.
