I absolutely love it. The way you handle your linework is very refreshing. Keep the posts coming, I'll be checking back ;)

[zephyri]

Love the linework on those first couple of pieces, very nice indeed. It has a quirkiness to it that brings to mind a couple of children's books illustrators, whose names escape me, but who had that same slightly wobbly line quality. Great work!

[dadushin]

yosul_gongju- thanks for the comment! nice name too haha

zephyri- thanks man, i think i might know who you're talking about and i can't remember the name either haha

i've been getting a lot of homework lately..which has kind of shat on my attempt to get back into sketching more :^^;:

i have been trying to work on my anatomy(formal) as it is kind of sucky
been doing pages of quick bodies and hands and such, i will try posting them
it would be great if you guys had tips on that subject

[Tigermilk]

ah man I get so happy sometimes. These sketches makes me so happy. :)
Some of them looks a bit like them old metalwinds drawings.
I was just about to quit my little drawing session for this evening, however now I'm stuck for at least an other hour.
I remember your old thread, you've developed lots, congrats. :)
cheers

[dadushin]

Tigermilk- wow thanks, i'm super happy that they made you happy and draw a little bit longer :) haha yes i remember those as well..
actually i found some of them OLDER ones (year and a half?) and it was revolting, i thought they were cool at the time....here they are just for reference haha :nohope:

[Aveh]

Nice stuff, I enjoy your sketchbook pages a lot. I like to see random thoughts put down visually. I'm the same way. That 3 page wide cityscape sketch is insane... It seems like it could have got so confusing, but you still pulled it to a point where it reads well.

I'd like to see a more finished self portrait from you though. The ones you posted were like teasers, makes me wanna see what you would do with more time.

[berf]

you have some great work going here, I love how dynamic your poses are

[ajvenema]

there are some atonomy issues with mainly feet, but what the hell! i love it how u make those scratchy lines without losing detail! go on like this, its very inspiring:) after looking at this i really had to force myself to go sleeping instead of drawing hehe...
and funny to see your into crusaders, i made some sketches out of them yesterday^^

[dadushin]

Aveh- hey thanks i'm glad you liked it...i might try to put more finished stuff here later so stay tuned!

berf- been workin on them, thanks!

ajvenema- yea i do them way to small sometimes without thinking sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't.. gotta practice! super dope that these inspire someone!

Dayum, killer style dadu! <3

[Donovan V]

Wow, those "Charcoal things" up top were very interesting. It looks as if you used some water at the end to run the charcoal. Very fun to look at.

[dadushin]

Divorce- hey thanks man!

Donovan V- yea, i wet the paper before i start drawing with a spray bottle and then start drawing...i spray more water if i need to erase and i also can get a variety of different effects...its pretty fun and it goes pretty quickly

[Yosul_Gongju]

Ahh I love the pieces you posted from the 7th of your girlfriend and her wire project. The charcoal looks like ink on a few of them, I really like how you handled both the medium and the composition.

[dadushin]

Yosul_gongju- hey thanks for dropping by again! and thanks yea i really like the things you can do with wet charcoal

p.s. - thanks for the stars everyone! very encouraging

[Blue Severin]

Good lines, fine shading, and a willingness to experiment, nice stuff. I like the red line sps the best. That's pretty damn good for your first oil painting. One thing you might try is pushing the color more, as it's fairly muted. But it's working as is, so only if you want to.

[Tigermilk]

Damn, that portrait is good man. I can't wait to see it finnished! :)
I somehow agree with Blue Severin regarding the colors though, I suppose those high lights could be more strong. However, I also suppose it's barely half finnished still, and it looks really good, love the lips.
Sketches looking radical too, love the last couple!!

Keep it up, I'm subscribing to this one.
/tiger

[drd]

I like that shading style you've got; It seems everybody is able to do it but me =(

Keep pounding away at this, you'll get better in no time

[dadushin]

Blue Severin- hey thanks for the crit! yea i know what you mean and i'm on it!
thats the next step

Tigermilk- Hey thanks for the subscription!

drd- Hey thanks man, and what do you mean except you? i looked at your stuff and your rendering style is perfectly fine, i would stick with it!

wowowow wonderful pencil work. please show us more!

[dadushin]

invinciblewombat- Hey thanks, i'll try

I'm hoping to get a tablet soon so i've been been trying out digi painting
scanned in a drawing (some of it was already rendered as well, didn't do this from scratch) and tried to get the values right and find the right colors

I did this with my touch pad so go easy!
i was also wondering which tablet would be the best to buy for beginners

Cheers :)

[dadushin]

Coinpurse- that portrait is actually part of series i'm doing for one of my classes, it's suppose to be a tumor or something like that, a disfiguration you could say...the rest of the paintings are similar in that they all have some shit like that going on..its actually a self-portrait as well
anyways definitely gotta jump on those studies!!

[egonun]

you did that last digi with a touch pad...???

great lines too buddy :)

u are sure one of those rare big talented ones , good you found ca and made a sketchbook here. it was already a big improvement from your 1 and a half year old samples to now , and if you stay focused on your where to improve list and get a lot of good crits and feedback here you´ll grow 4 times faster. i wonder how old you are. it´s a pleasure to meet you here. keep it posting yo!"

[Cold]

Good work. Maybe be mor digital coloured peaces, If you want :)

[dadushin]

GOBLINSHARK- hey man, thanks for dropping by, i just turned 19 and it kind of depressed me. I never took drawing seriously until this year and its really sad, i never really pushed my work and never really felt like i improved until recently...I drew back when i was like 15 but then just stopped and never did studies or anything cause i was a lazy ass...so i just wanted to say to all those other teens (and everyone else)...KEEP ON DRAWING every fuckin day!!! it'll pay off and you wont regret it... like i do :( haha i'm trying to make up for it now but man do i have aloooooot to do

Cold-Hey thanks, still looking for a cheap tablet! i hope to do some soon

[aph]

Don't worry man I'm 20 and looks like your miles ahead of me =P

Your stuff is really nice. Very fluid and organic, try to steer clear of styles and cliche though. There is always a long way to go man, art is never-ending, just accept that you can't beat everyone or be the best in the world.

Everyone brings something new to the table.. I like a lot of your stuff. =)

Very cool stuff here man, that sp was your first oil painting, Damn!! love the concepts, watch the size of some of your heads, they seem to be a little small for the bodies in porportion. Keep it going man, good work :)

[Zord]

i'm digging the pages dood. Just don't let others work influence yours TOO much. The thing is to take what you like from each artist and learn from it. I mean hell, i'm guilty of it as well. I remember from the workshops that it's good to be able to do what everyone else does well, but it's even better to do your own thing the best... or something like that. Hope it makes sense man. Cheers!

[dadushin]

Darktwin-Thanks for the pointers

Zord-Hey man i totally know what you mean, I'm still trying to get away from that but just recently(like really recently) i felt like i was on the right track... because now, whenever i draw, i don't even think about it anymore...i used to think "how do i make it like his or hers and make it good as them" the whole time i was drawing...I got rid of that at least and now when i draw i just do it cause its fun and it feels fun and I'M interested in what i'm drawing and focus on that instead of having a jumble of other artist drawings swimming around in my head.. and do it how feels best, instead of drawing to emulate the movements of someone else's hand...i know that its corny haha but yea i realized copying just doesn't work

a good example of that is wes burts way of designing his pages, i mean hes so good at it and i used to try to do it cause it was so cool...but i don't even like drawing shapes and patterns and all that other crazy ass awesome shit he does, it just doesn't complement my flow of drawing, i finally realized that and asked myself if i don't even like it t why the hell am i doing it

why do people have to be so damn inspirational...haha

page of faces because i suck at them have to do more of these
250173

[Zord]

Nice update dood.

I totally agree with you about doing what feels natural. Copying others work can help your own but ultimately it's what YOU do that decides the lines, design, and overall feel of the work. Big ups on that. :)

The faces come with practice; I like going where there's a variety of people, like at a coffeeshop or student union of a school. They move around a lot and forces you to focus more on gesture and form rather than rendering.

The tiny captions along the drawrings are funny, I like the 'fork arrow.'
Cheers man!

[ghoulio]

Doing great on your studies dude. Glad to see you picked up the drawing again. Been there to, didn´t draw for almost ten years and now gotta studie hard(frustrating sometimes haha).so promise to draw draw draw...

Hey there, thanks for checking out my SB. :)

Awesome sketches, love your loose lines. Characters are nice, too.
I like the digi-paint done with touch pad on bottom of page 1, really nice lighting.

Can't wait to see more.

watched seven samurai today and was itching to draw the whole movie...started right after, it has great designs and i loved the costumes
did not render much(although i do want to eventually flesh one out.sweet patterns and designs, exciting!)...trying to learn to draw, get depth with line, it is the foundation after all...plus they were too fun so i just wanted to keep drawing them
probably be awhile till i stop drawing these guys

[DARAF]

Nice pencil render style. I think the face and hands can use some attention. The ear seems a little too high and the hands are small, but that may have been your intention. Nice work though, keep it up.

[Sketch]

I'm stoked you checked out my sketchbook because it exposed me to yours! Damn, I love your work. Right now the two paintings are standing out the most to me. Would love to see more finished paintings from ya! Lookin forward to tons more.

[Goog]

cool cool stuff man, really enjoy alot of your creatures, they seem like they're alive. Not really much to crit, but dood, you have a tablet yet? Cheers.

[JFierce]

Thanks for checking out my first SB :)
Your sketchbook is awesome
I especially like your oil paintings

[loveandasandwich]

Your paintingssss.. grosss!!! ahahaha i love itttt.

Out of all the stuff I saw in here, I really liked this: http://www.conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=232805&d=1194230445 maybe because it's more styilized than realistic? my eye tends to draw more to those. anywho. i like it. & i think you should color it. :D with watercolors or somethign i think would look rad!

[dadushin]

DARAF- yea man i need to jump on those hands and heads been trying

sketch- hey thanks man, i'll try and post the next paint up

goog- thanks, but no i don't have a tablet yet :( :(

JFierce- thanks for the comment

28chelseaslater- hey thanks, i might have to try that!

been practicing more and more heads it was a fucking pain before but now i can't stop
ive been having trouble putting more details in the faces and costumes especially in that 3rd one(ew), so think i'm going to move to larger sheets of paper, faces are so much easier to draw larger i'm heading out to buy a bristol pad!

Hey, it's amazing how much you've progressed in three short pages. And all within a month. Inspiring work man, love your crisp drawing but especially your precise tonal rendering. Really brings your characters to life! Curious to see where you'll be in another month or so.

[berf]

your an amazing artist/ Ive seen so many good concepts scrolling threw your pics

[dadushin]

Rabid Peanut- hey thanks man! i'll take that as a complement! i hope it does not come of as copies though, as i talked with Zord, i feel like i'm still doin my own thing when i draw and don't think about others, this is kinda where my style has developed, although when i look at it after i feel like it does a little bit :|

Eon- hey eon thanks for the comment! i'm going to get to do a lot more drawing this coming month so i'm excited! less classes and stuff, sweet shit!

berf- wow thanks berf!

this is the new painting i've been doing, its near finished but there are a few things i need to touch up on(crits always welcome, definitely need some help on these!)

Dude, your stuff is delicious~
I love your pencil drawings.. actually, I like the ones on the first page best, I think, because of the bold lines you used. Also, you draw awesome girl-legs.

[Alexandr Pascenko]

i really love this grotesque "selfportraits"?!
especially the idea of it.

if you´d combine that great fluid linework of yours with some anatomy or better proportions, you´d be unstopable foh sho´!

still great to look at.

[dadushin]

lennon- haha thanks, yea the girlfriend wasn't too happy haha

Okirun- hey thanks man, yea i actually do miss drawing girls...gotta get back to it, i just havn't studied female anatomy properly yet...and i like long legs, what can i say ahah, thanks for the comments

[Niva.]

Your paintings are very vividly lit, I think the photo quality is bad... but why the grotesque tumor growth all over the place? Maybe there's a reason, i didn't read your text much just looked at the work. Your pieces with the tumors which are oil paintings are the best but looking at your pencils I'm surprised you're the same artist. Really such a jump, maybe you're improving a lot and the rest are just sketches as they all look unfinished. Either way I would like to see a well lit fully rendered piece which shows correct symmetry not disrupted by a bulbous tumor.

Thanks for dropping by my SB, I appreciate the comments.

[thek]

Really love your sketches - everything about them in fact. Your paintings send shivers up my spine but they're really well done and if they do that then I guess you're getting your desired reaction :)

[bhanu]

the painting is effing nice man....Some crits though(Please remember that I am noob myself)
Okay here goes..
Like the overall feel of things but some values seem somewhat wrongs, some highlights , are out of place like at the the edge of the forhead,the contrast seems too harsh, the highlights on the punched eye....are not implying a snese of form..And you gotta push the contrast I want to see some darks....
Some solidity to the rendering of the fac will give the painting a strong focal point, right now the way the face and the shirt are painted is somewhat the same....

still gotta say that you are so much better than I in oil paints...and the sketches too are rad...
Keep going.

[dadushin]

hey thanks for the comments guys and crits!
i'll reply later since i'm on someone else's computer and in a rush

hey man,
i thought id come by and see wat ur work is like, now that ive got the chance to, especially since uve visited my work on several occasions
when i look at ur work, and then at mine i see ur well ahead of me antomy-wise and head structure (im getting the hang of it now though). also u seem to be very much influenced by asian lifestyle (clothes etc.) and uve used these to ur advantaged and depicted ur images well.
id like to see more stuff.
talk soon

[Blue Severin]

Paintings are looking tight and nice. I think the shadow behind the figure in the last is a bit light in value, as the face looks like it's getting hit by a fairly strong light source. The tumorous growths are alright, but not reading as strong spacially as the rest of the faces. The pencils look nice with cool anatomy. Bhanu hit some good points.

[RABIDTOOTH]

man i really dig your free flowing sketch style.... saved the samurais! Good shot for a first paint ....keep it up and thanks for the crit...

[Draniel]

hey, thanks for check my sketch book.
your paintings are interesing, why the theme is always youself got hurt?
and also, 3 hours for that is pretty fast :)

[brandon.leedy]

First, thanks for stopping by the sb, thought I'd return the favor. Second, you've got crazy good pencil work, I love seeing it. The three page landscape in the back looks like it should become a digit paint, its got great depth. Also the later pencil work with higher contrast really catches my eye. I'm in I.D. and we're all about strict line quality, so seeing looser sketches always is interesting to me. I like that I can see how you moved about the page, etc. much like in the wet charcoal stuff you did. Finally, those paintings are tight, are you doing the series for a class or just personal work? Either way, I like that the disfigurations seem like legitimate tumors and don't lose the great style you have in the rest of the painting. Love the lighting too. Solid.

[Timmy the Turtle]

I don't know if this was said before, but I see alot of Marko Djurdjevic in your drawings. He's an inspiration to me too. But try not to copy the style, but adapt it to what fits you best! Tight shit, by the way! Cool stuff here! :D

[Peetaer]

I like your style. Keep developing it. It's looking good so far.

[B-Man]

Hi! Great improvement in here!
Looks like you really dig markos work! ;)
The only advise I can give you is to spend more time looking at anatomic errors in you drawings. On thing I see happen is that you make the thorso and midsection of the body to big. Cheers man! I enjoyed your SB and Ill be back for more.
Mahalo!

[TheGnoll]

very nice work man!

i really like the paintings ;)

the characters design have a nice rendering style, but yes, you should try different designs too...find inspration in anythng, and transform it into smething else :)
practice drawing hands too, i see you do't usually liek drawing them (hand and feet are bloody hard, but they are needed i a finished character :))

nice work, shw us more!

ciao!

[purb36]

yo dadu, thx for stoppin by the book. i like the stuff you have in here, especially your rendering style. anatomy is still taking shape, that's ok. just keep pushing it every chance you get. one thing i would think would help is doing some gesture drawing, or "snipe sketching" as some people like to call it. take a tiny sketchbook, go to the train, and just draw whoever you find interesting, either their clothes, pose, whatever; get practice drawing real people and seeing how real bodies behave. how the body balances itself, how weight effects certain body parts, what emotions people convey through their pose and body language, etc. these will help you bulid up a mental library that you can use when drawing from your head. just needs repetition, so just crack at it. biggest problem at the moment (at least with posing), is legs. almost all of them are straight up and down, with no bend. i would recommend, if you get a chance, pick up a bridgman book or two; they have been the best source of anatomical information for me. good luck man, i wanna see madd progress from you! keep pushin! :cheerleader:

[Jakers]

I started on the first page...and I must say WOW good progress though the 4 pages....I wish I could say the same for my SB.

I thought the last 2 guys in this post were super cool:
http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showpost.php?p=1559928&postcount=70

Some anatomy things like shoulders, and a long upper arm, but I know anatomy has alredy been mentioned, or is already on the list so I won't shout it at you! I barely make time for it myself. See ya!

[dadushin]

wow thanks guys for all the replies and comments, i really appreciate all your thoughts :yayca:
i'll reply in a bit though kinda in a rush!

squeezed these in during finals, during work, sitting at the library and checking out books for people haha, thats where the stamp is from..due dates. actually learned a lot doing them, i think i did at least...but i'm done with finals now FUCK YEA! done with all that shit.. so more and more drawing to come for sure...:yum:

[agelaos]

hey nice rendering throughout. Looked through your book, some nice stuff in here. Keep it up bro!

[AztcFireFlower]

Hey dadushin Thanks for your nice comments in my SB. The paintings are well executed. The shadows, in fact, have alot of movement and a sense of air. Am curious as to your idea behind the self portraits. What motivates the deformities?

[dadushin]

gkrit- hey thanks for the comments man, you are well on your way too

Blue Severin- thanks for the crits, definitely see what you mean. I did have trouble with the deformations and i think it shows, gotta keep workin at it.

RABIDTOOTH- thanks yo

Draniel- it was for a school project, more of a spontaneous thing, i think it went quicker because i pretty focused most of the time as well as it was the third one, kinda got more feel for how things work after doing the first two

Leadster618- thanks a lot man! the paintings are part a series for one of my classes, and good idea about the landscape, definitely gotta try that shit out once i get a tablet, if i ever do wah wah haha

Timmy the Turtle- hey thanks man, still working on that aha! i also think it has to do with the designs as well

Peetaer- thanks yo

B-Man- thanks for the pointers, i know what you mean i do have a things for making things to big and too small, especially heads, gotta work on that

TheGnoll- yup yup! you definitely hit hard on what some of my main problems are, i am currently trying to work on it haha...one thing also about the inspiration, i'm really trying to make art my life, well it kinda is being here at school, but i mean in a more mental way. make it a lifestyle...you are totally right about finding inspiration from everything...wherever i go i try to just "see" everything i can...i'm still not trying to force it though...haha long response...but yea still building my library and definitely know what you mean.

purb36- thats a good idea man, i have not been able to draw from life really at all for like lately, really dying to do some figure drawing and stuff. also gotta learn how to apply those to my imaginative stuff

Jakers- haha yea man anatomy is still a top priority thanks for the comments

agelaos- will do man, thanks

AztcFireFlower- thanks for dropping by..the paintings were more a spontaneous idea than a real deep meaning. But they do have some personal things behind them which i will share maybe one day ;)

again
thanks for all the comments and help guys wouldn't be where i am without the :yayca:

[lennon]

Great work man, I dig your sense for costumes, it's very original and refreshing.

[egonun]

getting better and better man!
keep goin!

[Alexandr Pascenko]

hee heeeeeeeeeeeee!
that turtle is so sweeeeet!
the last dude has got an interesting pose , not very convincing yet , still something fresh bout it.
congrats on finishing the finals. now lets see some more , and don´t forget to do practice stuff.

[Mr.Delicious]

nice render skills... I wanna see FINSHHHEEDDD ones!!!

[JPW]

I like your pencils a lot. Great paints too. Growths. Good stuff. Externalising the internal. You do it well.

Flattered you left me a comment. Thanks.

I'll look forward to seeing more.

[invinciblewombat]

these most recent ones are looking very wes burt-ish, which rocks hardcore. i second mr. delicious' comment.

[Dose206]

thanks for stopping by my sb, all traffic is appreciated muchly. Lots o' improvement here, keep it up and i third mr. delcious, finish some!

[Jiang.YiFan]

i love these paints ,keep it up

[Call0ps]

thx u for the comment on my book ^^ and u said u were glad to find my sketchbook ? lol im happy and amazed with your man! beautiful pencils, not much to say since u got all set and on the good direction :) keep it up

[Tigermilk]

hey man, thought I'd pop by to encourage you to update. :) Rendering is starting to look more solid. Good progress man!

edit: love the typemachine-ish look that date got, btw.

[Arthe Xavier]

I really, really dig your style, man. :) Very 'relaxed', so to speak, and confident. Just keep up at it!

In light of those wonderful paintings, I would love to see you do a pencil-portrait - doesn't matter if it is from a reference-photo or live model.

Oh, and I only recently started to frequent ConceptArt ( I even have a sketchbook here which I rather seldomly update, thanks to having no scanner at my current location.. I have only done digital sketches for it so far ), and I, too, haven't been very serious about drawing before. It is all changing, though, since I am loving the whole 'learning aspect' of art these days. I want to learn and improve, darn it! :p

Anyway, keep up the good work. I'll definetely come back to check this SB frequently. You have a new fan. :)

[Dravloc25]

From the looks of things you really don't need to worry about anatomy studies, like your style

[RABIDTOOTH]

hey dude good going

[Clodioz]

hey! thanks for stopping by my sb!

I'll tell you something::. My personal goal being a member in CA is to get a good pencil work,,, as yours :D

I really like it! the way you shade and so on...
and I would like to have the same imagination as you have ,,, your character design is excellent :P

pd. sorry about my bad english...

cheers!

5/5 from me :)

[UnSharpened]

Thank you dadushin, though I knew you've got loads of thanks here lol.
Having been saying my painting, you're definitely right on the advice you gave me!! I always find it is awkward defining the edges in my painting.
Your work is imaginative! I am damn that I haven't visited your SB until you posting in mine, shame on me~~
I'll do as you suggested, let's see how the work I'll come up with tomorrow...

Cheers!

[AsaB]

Hey, thanks for checking out my stuff!

Sweet drawings. I love the detailed shading you've got going on, it looks amazing. Nothing for me to crit on here, not really qualified, but I definitely like what I see. Keep those updates coming!

[Davio]

Nice sketchbook and thanks for the advice, I appreciate it. Keep up the good work

[MattGamer]

Awesome artz man. I have no time to critique anything, but I know when I like certain art and this is the kind I like. :) Cheers and Merry Christmas!

[Timmy the Turtle]

I still think it's too much of Marko in this :D

[That fat kid]

Hey Dadushin,

You've got the ability and potential to really shine, it's obvious from the patience inherent in your renders.

However, it's still early in the game and you've got some kinks to work out. The biggest impediment you seem to be struggling with is how to convey convincing anatomy and you're stuck on a couple of solutions, which is evident where you've consistently drawn the chest and shoulders in the exact same way several times. where the deltoid has nothing to do with the pectoral which has nothing to do with the biceps and so on. Each muscle group has a direct effect on the surrouding muscle groups and a muscle can technically only do one thing, which is PULL on something. Your bicep doesn't push your arm forward, it gives tension for when your tricep and brachialis pull your arm down. IF you keep that simple fact in mind when fleshing out characters, it makes for a much simpler time visualising how things have to work. Also keep in mind symmetry,the body needs both halves to work, front and back, side to side. Throw a punch, feel how your whole body has to react in order for that action to take place. That's almost always true of any action. Draw things as a whole and it'll help you feel out your poses and characters much easier. The whole point of this is that you should avoid systematic solutions, you're obviously better than that.

If you post more paintings I'd love to talk more about those too!

~Andrew

[ajvenema]

hi there! uve learned a lot again, its strange to see how fast a person develops his rendering skills, while another (me) is struggling so much with it! but i probably have other strong spots^^
keep it up!

[UnSharpened]

Thanks dadushin. Always good to hear comments from you.
Your line work is still well-rendered. Just keep your imagination and polishing the work out! I hope will see more to be done, especially colour painting!

Cheers

[dan.man.86]

haha you sketches are pretty awesome man...... I love the blend between realistic and completely bizarre :D I should carefully watch your style for inspiration...I'm going to have to stick around :)

[mrgrumble]

hey man! fellow risd slave :)
hope your enjoying the break for the next, what, two days before wintersession?
well, since you asked for my farty old senior advice, i thought i'd toss some things out, since there is still time for you to get what i failed at doing!:
but first off, just know the last sophomore i talked to about my true risd sentiments i convinced to leave :O ! do you know emmie?

in the short, definitely take any and all opportunities to experiment until you feel comfortable and understand what you're trying to get out of your art. you really have to fight hard to get the good classes and informative teachers (i didnt get anything i wanted until second semester junior year! ) but now i realize instead of doing all the tawdry work for teachers that didnt really care : cough : bill hall ), i should have just said 'fark it!' and focused on my own development that i wanted to see. in the end they should grade you on your personal effort, which so far is really impressive. and if they dont grade you well, dont worry, its not stamped on your portfolio :) and deifnetely try to get fritz for any and all classes, friggin genius!

actually, we should just meet up this coming semester and i can throw a few suggestions around if ya want man! i live in the bowels of provwash in my studio. send me a line ur facebook or something i guess? btw what are you taking for wintersession?
sick paintings btw
-tim

[Fvallejo]

hey man, I didnt forget that crit that i mentioned...just a little late sorry (your drawings are rocking by the way)

In your paintings I can suggest using the background more to your advantage. The few that I have seen have a greyish bg. Try to use more color in it. The best paintings have a tint to the bg's that is echoed throughout the paintings. Try and mess with more reds in your skin tones. I see a lot of browns and yellows but some reds might offer some variety as will subtle blues and greens. Also try and feather some of your edges more and soften them. You can be loose and soft in certain areas and get more hard in areas with actual hard edges like eyelashes and such. Cuz if you think about it the side of the face is a turning soft sphere so it won't really have a hard edge...

Hope this helps.

happy holidays

[dadushin]

hey all!
i'm back at school, where the scanner is, which means i can start updating again!

i have a lot of crap so i'll start with the ones i was able to scan, just a few and are from the beginning of vacation
these are pretty old now (3 weeks?) and looking at them i can see a lot of messed up things, some nice things but mostly really messed up suckiness things

all no ref, did these after watching gladiator though

and I've to say again,,, but your pencils are great!

cheers!

[MarkHarchar]

Dadushin, thanks for stopping by my SB. You have an interesting bunch of stuff in here yourself. You have some interesting and nice linework and interesting. I haven't read everyone else's comments, but anatomy studies will make your sketches much strong. I'd like to see more paints and what you can do with them.

[paperX]

hey dude thanks for commenting in my sketchbook, sweet paintings and sketches you got here! i would suggest perhaps doing some more "action" poses when working with out ref as some of your sketches look a tad stiff atm...but thats one of my main issues too hehe :^^;: keep up the great work!

[dadushin]

finally update

i'll reply with the last batch of comments

posting in chronological order, older to newer

allot of good books tonight, and this one caught my eye. thanks for sharing your work.

[UnSharpened]

Wooah, haven't come to realize you're so young until you said that those are for teen challenge!:D They are all awesome, I personally prefer the first one, nice character as a whole. Just thinking maybe you can add some motion to your work such as distort the perspective or extreme pose?

Nice job!

[skorpi]

Wow, I love your sketches

[gustavo desimone]

Very good picture

[Clodioz]

WOUU, cool update! your characters are really nice!
your lines and shading are amazing!
and I wanted to ask you something (with my limitated technical english :P)
what kind of pencils do you use,,, or what range of pencils do you use? (3b,2b,b,hb,h...??? ) to obtain, for example, the apocalypsis warlord?

[Miles_]

Nice rendering man! Great costumes too. Try doing some more dynamic poses and stuff like that. Lookin forward to the next update.

[monsi]

great work :] love your character drawings.

One thing I'd say is they all look slightly stiff. I don't know if you are doing it or not, but I think you'd benefit alot from some life drawing. Get a bit more looseness and gesture going with your figures and they'll feel better.

Also don't forget anatomy!

[dadushin]

Dravloc25- thanks man

RABIDTOOTH- thanks

Clodioz- thanks man! keep practicing and let the world inspire you 2ndcomment:yea man i fuckin love that movie haha, great to hear i inspire someone, thanks man! 3rdcomment: pencils...i use .5 and .7 mechanical pencils, a 2b pencil, and a kneaded eraser. right now i havn't really used the .7, but it depends on what i'm rendering and i guess what i feel like at the moment..sometimes i draw with only 2b when other times just the .5...sometimes do the line with .5 and then render with 2b...but yup those are the pencils i use............for the warlord i started with .5 for the line and then used both .5 and 2b for rendering, just switching off, don't remember that well

UnSharpened- thanks, your work is improving! 2ndcomment: hey man thanks again, yea in the coming month i plan to do more painting stay tuned! 3rdcomment: thanks for stopping by again! haha, yea i'm trying to get into skewing the perspective and doing more action poses now, we'll see how it goes

Davio- thanks i'll try!

Mattgamer- glad you like

Timmy.the Turtle- haha..hmm what about now?

The fat kid- hey thanks for the great advice man, you really hit on one of my big problems, still working on it as i still am taking the easy rout in some of my recent ones, but i definitely keep your post in mind now when i draw. great respect for your improvement and work. thanks fat kid!

ajvenema- yea man you definitely do have your own strong spots, everything comes with practice!

dan.man.86- hey thanks man, i'm going back into more bizarre stuff as i miss it, stay tuned!

mrgrumble- hey grumble, still need to contact you, i think i saw you once but i wasn't sure because i didn't have my glasses so i didn't approach you haha
ill send you another message

Fvallejo- thanks for the words!! definitely helps, i'm going to be painting a bunch, i'll keep this stuff in mind for sure, i think i was scared in adding in colors into the skin tones because i thought everything would be thrown off or it would stand out to much, but i now realize that just made them kinda bland..thanks for dropping by!

hylandr2- yup i'm really lazy when it comes to getting down and doing the studies...got to get off my ass, thanks for the comment!

paperX- great point, im just getting into action and more gestural poses, thanks

Call0ps- hey thanks for dropping in again, i'll try!

Slav- thank you for stopping by

Skorpi- thanks for the comment

gustavo desimone- thanks

Miles- thanks man, i will as its one of my weak points right now

[Gardener]

you are good at pencil sketchs~ er, i 'm not sure what the bright skin in that man's face? yeah, the bright spot besides his mouse. that confused me ...
keep it up. do some digital works, i think you will do much better than only black and white~

[Clodioz]

coOOL, thanks for the answer,,, Now, I can diferenciate areas with 2b and with your .5 :), btw, nice update as always :)

cheers man!

[egonun]

dude nice work again
i would love to see more actions shots as well maybe some scenes, interaction? would be sweet

[Glory666]

havnt been in this sketchbook in a while. i can see improvment and also some similar things with yours and marko's work. keep it up man!

[dadushin]

Gardener- white dot? i would do some digital works, but working with mouse frustrates me, no wacom(SL:DIFJSDfalkdjf;askdji) plus i don't even have photoshop yet :(...thanks for the comment

Clodioz- thanks for the continued support man!

egonun- yea still workin out them, did some, and they suck really bad, maybe i'll post em...i should shouldn't i...haha thanks

[Clodioz]

hey ! Maybe I dont have your imagination and I will never develope it,,, but I have to tell you that I've been practicing shading as you,,, but I cant heheheh :nohope: doesnt matter...

and ehmmmm,,, I have noticed that you tend to hide your faces,,, even when they're pretty good!,,, dunno why,,, perhaps a few characters without helmet wouldnt be so bad :)
sooo that's all for now.. I go to bed,,, it's late here
good night!

[paperX]

hey dude, great updates....i think Clodioz is on to something here about the helmet comment, also i suggest watch out for the pose of the hands, it can start to get repetitive from time to time as you choose to draw the pose that you are more comfortable with (i know because i do this a lot :^^;:....keep up the hard work man!

[Zarquino]

Thanks! I know about the contrast, the thing is when I try to get darker on shades or just to make a better sensation of volume I loose colours. I still don't know / understand contrast and opacity of colours and the painting loses when I try to get deeper on that.

Very cool desings, I don't know why but I don't remember having seen that sb!

Thank you very much (anyone telling anything from long ago :p)

[dadushin]

Clodioz-yea good point, i think i have a couple faces in this update, not really though, should practice those

PaperX- good point again, practice required once again!

Zarquino- thanks for stopping by

thanks for the visit to my sb. :]

Your sketches look so clean. Your characters look really cool. You have a great imagination. : D They all seem like they're standing around, I'd love to see your characters in action, a few more dynamic poses. :)

[Blue Severin]

Nice rendering and designs. Material texturing is looking sweet. Don't forget to work on proportion, some of your shins are a bit short, and a lot of them have very small feet.

[Tigermilk]

Great sktches man, your progress is apparent. You've developed your lines, rendering and design. Very cool. :) I've got few advice atm I guess, however a tip would be to explore light some more perhaps. You seem to have created a pattern were you introduce light from above in almost every sketch.
looking forward to more!

[snubbed]

Your figures are so cool! Great costume ideas (that's so hard for me to do) and really nicely rendered. Not a lot of messy lines or mistakes being fixed (that I could see at least.) Can't wait to see more.

The only critique I can offer is to maybe start sketching hints of backgrounds and finishing some of the figures. These are just sketches, though, so maybe that's unnecessary. Dunno.

[ItalianHorsey]

Thanks for commenting in my SB...I hate you haha, your SB is amazing, that first oil painting was nice. I love your characters.

[aph]

Your inspired? lol

Dude your stuff is like a slap in the face... your economy of line is striking me, and a great grasp of anatomy and naturalistic posing. Don't even have a clue how you do it. =)

Very scary skill, now, I go to draw. PS, i wish people on my class beat my ass as much as you =P

Hey Dadushin

Thanks for the visit and the advice. I'm lovin' how you render your characters, and the concepts are awesome! I can't wait to see more stuff!

[smid]

Really nice character design man! I really like the shading. There are some anatomy issues though but you have a good touch. Keep em coming!

[Ovad]

Aw. i love your rough sketchs! ill be near for more updates.

Te-Can- thanks for the comment, i'm getting back into figures maybe that will help me

Blue Severin- thanks, bad habits

Tigermilk- yea thanks for the reminder, got to experiment more

snubbed- yea they are just sketches and most of the time i get to into the character, but you are right i probably should haha

Hey Dude!!
U're improvement is out of control aswell!!!
Im loving ur drawings!! ohhh gosh fantastic designs!!
Well i should push myself too to do more from imagine!!
Thanks for sharing and the kind words!!!
Will keep ur advices in mind i try to push myself harder!! thanks a lot!!

[NemesisOnline]

Thanks for your comment in my sketchbook.
Your drawings are amazing, I love the way you give your figures so much volume
and character with so few lines.

[~Faust~]

Wow you have talent! I really like the tightness of your renderings. Also, you seem to have a nice imagination when coming up with characters. All in all great work!

[aph]

Just one things, get away from claw hands syndrome.. not good. Or at least spice them up, not hard to achieve something different with hands imo, just gotta put as much thought into them as the rest of the design.

Sweet pencils though matey, maybe some enviro's?

[UnSharpened]

The shading is as sweet as usual >3.
And I can see you're trying to experiment various poses more often, just keep it up~~ it will be worthwhile .

[elihanselman]

Very nice drawings, and paintings too! Can't wait to see you do with a wacom!

[D@niel]

Hey man, Awsome drawingsrealy love your style, simple and elegant, and your anatomy is imroving rapedly! One question, is it just me or do you never draw abs, almost all your rendered male characters have some sort of armor/clothing covering their stomachs?
ps: I realy dig your oil paintings, very good!

[thesadpencil]

thanks for dropping by my sb. i really like your linework and all your characters are great. really great pencils i would however like to see more in color. definitely wanna see more though.

[dadushin]

small update, replies soon
sry for the lack of updates, gonna push myself again, probably a lot more life drawing now, fun stuff

[kakapoopie]

wow great progress...and great handwriting!!

[Eon]

Hey there Dadaushin. On this sixth page a few of your characters exhibit some small heads in relation to their bodies, same for the feet which tend to be small and pointy (the last one might just be a preference). A lot of your characters seem static, facing towards the viewer and not doing much. It'd be interesting if you drew them from all sides to reveal their side and back anatomy/costume designs. Or place them in action poses to work those particular imagination muscles.

[Clodioz]

yeahh, try to change the frontal view... I like your life drwngs, keep doing more!
thanks for stopping by my sb
ahm! and fucking nice costume ideas, as always!

Cheers!

[dadushin]

Soja- hey thanks for the comments!

Occidental_Martyrm, ~Faust~- thanks guys

aph- yea i should work on them more, i think its because they started as really quick and then i just rendered it mindlessly haha, hands...my weakness

Unsharpened- thanks for the encouragement

elihanselman- thanks and i can't wait either! haha

D@niel- hmm i don't know, i guess i do always put armor there haha, theres a hint of abs in the last one though..

thesadpencil- hey thanks, i'm picking up the brushes again and i'm kinda waiting to get a wacom and color digitally

kakapoopie- haha thanks

Eon- i usually like the small features but i do push it to far sometimes, i do do turn arounds once in awhile, not really in my sketchbook though i guess i should post them. picked up a new anatomy book to help me with the muscles : )

Clodioz- thanks man, i'm doing more haha

[Genome]

I have been following you since day one, and as most of the threads i watch ive been happy to see alot of progression.
Although i dont know what you go to school for, i think you should begin to push yourself. You have a grasp on basic anatomy, and rendering. Now play with it. Mess around with texture and contrast, maybe more line weight. Definitally start to mess around with more body types and poses, right now they are natural, but not as expressive as I think you could make them. This just how i see it and what i think, take it or leave it < :) >

Overall I believe that in whatever field you choose to enter (may it be art or otherwise) you will go far.

Oh btw another thing you should try is a sitting down and making a figure that expresses the emotion you are feeling at that time, or the one you had during the duration of the day(try to limit the word use). This will inhance your illustration capabilites quickly. Take with a grain of salt or just ignore it haha.

Either way you are a star(5 of them in fact) on the rise. It has been a pleasure watching

I appreciate the sb visit--it led me to yours, which is inspiring. Your lines have a really nice feel, and so do your renders. I can't wait to see those promised life drawings.

Claw hands *argahsadgashdgadhasgagagagfaarghhhhhhhhhh!*

Practice them! If you know they are your weakness!

Hello dadushin, you draw and shade very nicely! but, your characters are bit stiff, they don't kind of go into motion or relaxed poses. This is really hard to achieve (i am struggling with it propably years to come) but i think this might be the area you really should concentrate more

keep posting anyway!

[pennington]

hey man you're kickin butt. all around everything is looking good. only thing I notice is some anatomy stuff like how things connect and work together. already mentioned tho.

[AphexTweak]

Thanks for stopping by my sketch book. You got a nice one going here yourself. Crazy characters and nice lose sketchy style going on. Cool paintings in the beginning even with the weird facial growths. Keep it up... looking forward to future updates.

cheers!
chaoO!

Fun, I really enjoy your pencil sketches. A lot of really neat designs and you draw figures with a really light touch that works really well. I wish I could read your notes around the people sitting on the train. I always jot notes in my sketchbooks even when I draw on the computer. It is always fun reading them because it adds a further personal touch.

Looking forward to keeping an eye on your thread.

[algenpfleger]

ooooh fun sketchbook, really good pencils in here sir.

[SQuiP]

I am unbelievable crazy about your style!! I view most of your scetches as finished works. I've always enjoyed an unfinished look in drawing as I believe the fresh movement and structure of scetchbook lines and contours add so much more to a piece than completed, smooth coloring ever could.

[Diego]

really good pencils man.

[Cup of Joe]

Nice stuff in these last few updates! The only crit I can think of is that a few of these could use to have their darks ratcheted up a few notches.
Keep it up.

[aph]

Hey dude! You should give us an update man.. like the favourite sketch from the last month? Come on... only takes 5 minutes to do .. go go go!

Study some feet! and their proportion in relation to other stuff .. seems to be a sore spot. Keep pushing man, some great stuff in the last post.
