sketchbook: Muzz

Guess i should start one up here .

Various hot dickings from various projects.

A.Kincade

Cool stuff you got here. I personally like the 1st and 3rd ones the best. No specific reason, just caught my eye more than the others. While the others are still pretty sweet themselves.

I like the bubble shield in the first one. Mainly the thing projecting the bubble. As for the bubble itself... seems almost Halo-ish imo. Maybe something other that the hexagonal look.

Otherwise not bad. Hope to see more in the future. Keep up the good work.

Canden Picard

I love your stuff man, You have the kind od taste I hope I get to work with in the future.

D R E A M N T

Number 1 and 5 are definitely my favs so far.I hope to see more of you man.

Muzzoid

Cheers guys.

Various form studies and life drawing.

Nizza_waaarg

cool 2d work man. Only thing that's bugging me a little is the really saturated colours all over (moreso in the first few). Looks like it'd be more suited to a fairly desaturated pallete with some more saturated areas where the interest is or just to add smaller bits of colour around.

anyways, last batch of life drawings and especially those two mechanical pics looks aws

Muzzoid

Cheers man .

With the saturated colours, the reason why they look off is because i usually work in a desaturated pallete, it is only as of late that ive been trying to make saturated colours work. It can be a real problem for me though as im a bit colourblind....

Anyways some morning poop... EDIT: touched it up a little more in my lunch break.

Sage

nice work!! always been a big fa. Keep em coming1

Nizza_waaarg

haha, that dude rocks (and the colours are looking awsome too :P)

hoping moar like that appears here

Muzzoid

cheerio .

Rat dude.

Alec3d

very cool style going on although in your first post (the fourth image) there was something odd that I found with the sharpness of the splash around the tire. Other than that AWESOME.

Joshua Stubbles

I love the env/prop stuff. Very nice.

Muzzoid

cheers dudes.

Skull piles are great for form practice.

Muzzoid

well this just highlights how lacking my facial anatomy is .

EDIT: that sculpt was just embarassing....

Alec3d

try having the cheekbones more pronounced and the brow more too.

Nizza_waaarg

haha, that rat dude reminds me of whats his name from teenage mutant ninja turtles (the rat sensai dude :P)

as for the head, try doin 50 more and see where you end up ^__^

srsly tho, might be worth looking into my hero kevin chen: http://www.characterdesigns.com/index.php?sitepage=tutorials (check the drop down menu, then anything by kchen).
Just to get a better understanding of the major forms/volumes of the head. Also try measuring out your proportions constantly too and see if it helps any (not that i can really talk )

Muzzoid

cheers man.

Kevin chen is pretty awesome


Im making myself a new portfolio site, and this is the start.



And lottsa sketches. Some at life drawing, others at sketchgroup. If any brisbane doods are around, come and sketch with us at starbuck in the myercenter at 10 am on a sat. We ended up going froms tarbucks to the botanical gardens and drew, then went to a pub played pool awesomly and drew, then went to another pub and drew some more. All in all an awesome day. The splash tagged along as well .













Site design for student game.



and a sculpt.

conte

doggy rocks!

Muzzoid

Cheers man!


More from tonight

conte

really nice life drawings!

Nizza_waaarg

really cool rendering of light and shadow, second one especially (little bit of bloom up in there? :P)

Muzzoid

mmmm bloom..

Actually that was just me copying the image putting it on multiply and blurring to get rid of the harshness scanning gives these drawings. It isnt an ideal fix but its the best fast method i know off. And they look like poo without it on my poo scanner.

A friend helped me out and told me what gave my faces the 'muzzface™' look and it was mostly to do with the face silhouette so i went and studied a bunch of face silhouettes and this is what i got when i applied it back to my own imaginary faces again !!!

This is a super fast page but it shows im on the path to recovery.

BigHoss

I would have to say there is some improvement in your face silhouettes. Not a lot but enough that you can see a difference. imho

Muzzoid

hehe, well in this thread i havent reall got many face drawings before that so its hard to tell, as all of my faces tend to have a very strange look that no one had really been able to put thier finger on before. I tend to post some generic comments and some personalised comments for each sketchbook thread i run across the net hence why i was talking about improvments over old drawings .

Muzzoid

I like this one a lot, would love to see it modeled up, if only for a good shiny material practice
