whipSwitch: Yeah, that is a problem I want to face in future projects. My compositions are mostly simple. Spot on... really spot on. Really good compositions are not spot on. They lead your view through the picture. Had to learn this for myself. For example in my last piece theres so much space above the main point lost. Yeah, thanks, will remember that next time and give even more time on planning.
This time an oil one:

For the first few pictures I didnt use any references, but I found out when you want it good, you have to use references. But not copy, just understand and learn from it. For the quarry I used several pictures I made while training with friends in it. I had plenty of fotos, but I didn't quite use many. Looked for some stone shapes, value hierarchy and stuff. Or what kind of flowers grow there, what types of shrubs. How are the stones on the ground shaped. Those kinds of things are really hard to imagine, since you never really focus on such things.
If you rethink what types of shrubs and stuff grow on a shore of a river you will notice you have no idea! Thats why you should go out and draw and/or use good references. Best is when your own plein air studies are your references.
You should also not think that your wacom will make you a better artist. Learn to draw! It is important to be able to draw properly, painting will come on its own. It is important to know how things look like and how to draw them.
One big msg. in my own thread. Hope it helps.
The lightning is very convincing. Can't wait to see more.
niiice.
So, an update on the Frame. Got it baked now, Lowpoly is around 1100polys. Bit much, but wanted it not tooo low. It's not an asset, its just a Frame
Diffus not even close to final. Its just 2 colors and an ambient occlusion bake. No Specmap. Will do that tomorrow.
Polycount is 1104 faces.
click image for bigger!
UC is over, so I will post my final stuff here.
and some watercolor sketches from budapest:
I'm curious.

Keep it coming, i like what i see!
The boomer has a girlfriend, so the hunter should have. What girl would fit better than Faith of Mirrors Edge? None!
Love your environment sketches and your Unearthly came out pretty fucking awesome!
Update more~
I like any kind of portals (as long as they look cool). Should redo the gate, perhaps I'll find some time for it. Most fun in it was painting the foliage as you certainly hardly noticed ^^
Jackwhat:
Whout???? She is supposed to be his girlfriend. They should have little hunterbabies and rape every single l4d player ^^
Glad you like my stuff!
Here is one from today, had time and motivation this weekend. It's an additional piece from a private project I am working on here and there when theres time. The image 'The The Sacrifice' is also part of it.
Its not finished, its more like work in progress. Or I will completely redo it, dont know. Na, wont to that, too lazy! I feel like I could implement the gate Razvan talked about into this world... perhaps... somehow... Ideas running through my brain, weird words... ^^
Enough, heres the pic:
Yeah, I like trees and I really enjoy drawing them! Thats relaxing for me!
Overhauled my last speedpaint:
One of today:
