I'm starting this sketchbook to encourage myself to post more often. I have been practicing with a traditional sketchpad trying to improve my fundamentals. I do intend to paint over many of my sketches in PS. Critiques are more than welcome and I hope you all enjoy browsing through my doodles.

Really liking your collection of work
Maybe you could try doodling some of your weapons in perspective or various orthographic views/detail shots to mix things up and push yourself a bit further?
Looking forward to watching these develop, keep at it!
I managed to resize the images before I posted this time. Unfortunately a few images are blurry. I won't be as lazy next time I take pictures. Some are more finished than others, I go back to unfinished pages and render them out, hoping to do that with every page eventually.
Watercolor
Still working on this. going for a futuristic mega city
Complete with swatch, If it wasn't a sketchbook i'd remove it.
Worn down Cobblestone.
I wonder, did you try to reproduce realistically materials before?
I am not a specialist but I imagine it is harder to try to stylize them as you are doing right now, there are still some materials I would have trouble defining from your illustration because their shading is too similar imho.
Anyway, I am not that good yet with painting so it is just my opinion, might be wrong though!
