After going to GDC I realized I need to start posting stuff and I need to start working on 2D art. So i'm going to be trying to do daily studies.

Feedback is welcomed!

Harford

Good start man , great to be inspired after something like GDC.

Thanks Harford!

GDC slapped me in the face and said "Art more !"

Stylized head speed sculpt, I probably should have gave the guy some ears ;_; i'm so mean

yannage

Definitely do some basic realistic human studies and sculpts. Most if not all artists are judged on how well they can replicate the natural human figure. It's easy for artist to hide behind the guise of style and claim mistakes as intended details.

Also don't show renders on a black BG it looks quick and dirty and it's hard to see all the details without proper three point lighting.

The last render of your Pokemon is also a little too dark, hard to see the work you put into it. Don't be shy, about providing well lit renders for critique.

Keep it up!

Thanks Oliver! I'll probably be doing more realistic studies. Also I'll try to work on lighting my scenes better, as well as be weary on contrasts!

Thanks again:)!

was watching a video and felt the urge to draw. I went for a volume study but went way to fast on focusing on areas. I need to work so much more on shape/proportions

you definitely nailed more human proportions correctly with hodor. digging those creases by the nose and the beard texture. these studies will really help you, do them every day!

yannage

Thanks taytahs ! I feel as I observe more I get a better understanding of shapes/differences in 3d space

Hey man, looks like you are starting to nail sculpting, and painting.

Good work!

I would really suggest with your digital painting to try and pat attention to how darks the darks really are in the references, compared to the midtones of the shadows. You should be pushing it as far as the reference or your copy will end up looking flat in comparison.

yannage

Thanks Muzz!

I don't know why but when I'm doing digital painting I always stray from the harsh volume changes. I've been trying to stop after awhile and take a step back and try to evaluate the volume change cause they keep coming out so flat. Ty for the tip:)

1 hr sculpt!

Also, working on making some farm animals - here is a goat I'm working on
