I'm digging the watercolor a lot. Your studies look good, really solid values and I like the use of a monochrome scheme instead of straight black and white. I'd just like to see some more finished watercolor stuff, from what I see here, you could turn out some awesome stuff with it.
Thanks man! My problem with the water color is: it hides "shitty" paintings. You can turn a medium drawing in a cool looking picture just with some color and what i want to is to learn how to draw "right" and not how to draw beauty...but thanks a lot for your kind words i just want to say why my latest pics are back to just painted with pen.
A new one. Resolution is better in the original but photobucket scaled down it because it was too big.
Did some technique practise:
1. Sketch (Figures as Cubes, like when i do lifedrawing)
2. Fine
3. Brightnes just as gray
4. Shadows
5. Color (Layer with Blendmode "Color")
6. Colorcorrection
7. Glow
Nice figure studies. I just think you need to be more accurate with the big proportions. Pay close attention to the size of the legs and arms. Always compare the two. The box drawings done in pencil and pen are my favorite
Keep it up!

Thanks man! I just saw you drawings and the are really great! Do you have ssome tipps about line drawing for me? Do you follow rules for the thin/thick lines like thick for the "active" side of the body and thin for the passive one? Or something like that?
I had the idea that the back of the fornt "wings" could get a structure like feathers. Not real feathers but that the viewer can recognize the structure.
Turtle is looking good so far. If you're going to do a kind of faux-wing on the underside, I think it'd look more convincing and winglike if you follow more closely the actual feather structure of a bird. It doesn't have to be exact or even functional, but adding some of the different sizes, densities, and spread of the various structures would help sell the idea of wings. As it is now, they don't read as "feathers" and look more like teeth.
edit: whoops, that was a view from the top of the wing. fixed.
Currently i'm working on this. I place all figures (some are missing right now) and after that i'll check the "noise" and make sure that overlapping people are separated better (contrast wise). Of corse shadows and color will follow and some overpaint for the girls in the foreground.

- i'll add a "chair" under the turtle (like in the sketch)
- i'll try to paint it in zBrush to practise vertex painting
