Snowfly: That's crazy talk. You rock so much harder than me!
Prs-Phil: I blame the fact that I had artistic constipation with those sketches. When I picked the tablet up again, I think I got over that.
Dfacto: Always loved your mechs! And I love this one too.
dfacto: outstanding one! love the consistent line execution
makkon: my fav ones are : "9-18-07-stranger.jpg" & "9-19-07boldgirl.jpg"... the brush techniques gave them a good portion of life. more from your abstract stuff!
rens: well executed... dont blame for stuff from reference, but a suggestion of me would be: get looser on reference stuff so that you can draw maybe 5 faces in a hour. this way you get much more experience from the thing you study. the rule is just to try to do it the best in this time limit. there is no need to make them good looking or catch the likeness.... you can throw them away if they dont look good... simply give a shit about there look, the goal is just experience. helped me much a thick "fineliner" pen additionally helps, he is so rough that you cant stop for details -> more heads
the first is from my (much too small) sketchbook while on my way home (train), quite obvious which ones are from reference. the woman comes from a photograph of Guenther Roessler - paper sucked pretty much... the last one i started as a "getting my head clear" - doodle at work. worked a bit on it today but my fingers where too drunken so i gave it on hold
Impressive stuff guys !!!
Sorry to ruin the beautiful thread with these... I'm trying to get better with speedy paints, so these are quickies done from still movie frames:
Makkon, love the textures you're getting in your PS paints, and the digital sketches have a nice energy to them.
Chris, hawt. As always.
Couldn't sleep, so did a quickie SP in openCanvas. Mainly trying to get a little more adventurous about hue choices (lacking contrast, though), and getting used to oC:
Revamp on my character. Trying to make him less cartoony and trying to eliminate possible and unintentional similarities he has to Ratchet. Also really pushing the cat-fox combo, wonder if I can take it farther.
What do you guys think?

Nice stuff as always... No offense makkon, I always thought your character was starfox
saw an image of the game Space Ace on kotaku.com and i was bored so thought i might try sketching in the Don Bluth style which lead to me sketching Harry Potter and Ron Weasley on the side.
Hello everyone
I decided that I would post up my latest concept sketch of T-Rex that I might possibly decide to model in 3D soon. My focus for now is to finish the color version for the concept. I wanted to over exaggerate parts of the T-Rex since I want to go for that cartoonie style. Comments are welcome.
makkonz uve been making so much progress, i really enjoy ur posts.
i loved those toned expressive faces a few posts back,
when do we get to see some colors?

snowfly: the black one has a interresting character
ferg: awe- awe some
some stuff from my last weeks; mostly referenced except the heads paper and the statue paper
those girls, specialy the one lying down, are simply awesome!
mad buccaneer!
Anyone remember those lunar lander games where you could only land in the tiny straight part of this extremely rugged 2d vector terrain?
opencanvas+photoshop
~30 minutes
uh, some more sketches from me.
i loved those toned expressive faces a few posts back,

20 minute-ish speedy
I'm not entirely happy with this one, feels kinda dead to me. But I guess I learned a thing or two from making it
Also doodling around, might end up printed as a gift for my cousin. It's some kind of ... levitating dude?
