My big beef with this last piece of yours is that there is no clear focus. Is it the broken bridge, the rock structure with a face, the cloud swirl, or even the tiny figure at the bottom? They are all built up to the same level of finish resulting in each of them fighting for attention (aside from the dude, he's just small). Something to think about when doing your next piece.
The little scene you posted up earlier looks fantastic. Definitely saved to the inspiration folder. Did you do a lot of planning before starting on it or did you just dive in?
Spacey, thanks for the feedback man, much appreciated! Im exhausted or I'd give you a proper response regarding the mini scene. Try to get to that tomorrow
DOOM. That's a cool study dude, you nailed the mood and materials. I think you shoulda gone in with a smaller brush on the wood and things -- the surfaces all look a bit too uniform in scale. Where's bounchfx's?
I've been studying the way Brom handles contrast and skin tones, among other things. Love that dude's paintings! Took what I've learned and started reworking this old thing.
Well the pose is weird to begin with. I doubt you'd be able to put your food firmly on the ground being so horizontal, so maybe try resting his knee on the ground instead. With that said, if he has his left hand and right knee down, his right hand would be free to hold something, so maybe bring it back a bit and show a little action. The tangent that the front tree branch creates is also kind of weird lining up with the verticals in his arm. BUT WHAT I WAS SUGGESTING IS THAT IT LOOKS LIKE HE HAS A CROOKED DICK.
I don't usually do fan art but happened to be listening to the megaman x soundtrack at the time and started drawing. There's some slightly wonky perspective and the design's not to canon(oh god!!!) but was fun to make

Would you be so kind as to share wires/ images of individual modular pieces?
I'm moving back home tomorrow, so the project's on hold for the time being.
Did a little painting tonight
*Edit* Fixed link
suburbbum: I was doing some reorg and broke a few links, but all is well now
2nd pass at that painting

@Callesw: Thank you sir!
A lot of this crap's moderately old and probably not super reflective of my current skill.
A lot of unfinished quick sketchery.
This one's palette was ripped from conte maybe? Correct me if I'm wrong, but someone here inspired me
cutesy toons
Some weird, slightly abstract shit
Revisited an old quick sketch of a koala bear in a gloomy forest (what is he doing there?!)
Maybe I need to pose his hand differently or just define it more. Any suggestions?
*returns to the drawing board*
And a very belated thank you to you pixelb. More has come at last!
First up is a little mockup for a Mech Knight level
A study I began after realizing I needed more desert in my art diet.
Inside a lost greentooth temple, unearthed in deserts unknown</mysterious>
Thanks for looking
A study I did not long ago. The lighting conditions changed rapidly so I cut it short.
Bloodseeker portrait and concepts for a set I'll be returning to at some point..
A collection of sword concepts for Dota's Legion Commander.
