[RandAlThor]

Nice loose sketches, good atmosphere in environments. Looks like a good set of texture brushes, care to share? Keep posting dude, im sure you will stand out around here ;-)

[SEVANS]

That blue pic has such wonderful colour.

[teho]

the first one and the last one are damn kick ass! keep it up!

[Vulgar`]

The first painting is phenomenal. Is that a futuristic soldier?

Keep doing you

[mellongcreate]

strong figure and portrait work. Just started my first SB, how long did you have your old one up for? keep the work coming everyday...

[ovset]

Your paintings are amazing. I'd like to see more of your concept work.

[Jokisalo]

VanDog: Thanks a lot, and sorry man I've should have known better..
ghoulio: Thanks a lot
Dan Valkar: Thanks for crit!!
xabian: Thank you
RandAlThor: I'm willing to share my brushes as soon as someone tells me where I can upload 'em!!
SEVANS: Cool, you like it! Thank you.
teho: Thanks
Vulgar`: Defenetely it is ;)
mellongcreate : Strong figure work, you think? Thank you man. Dunno kept uptading it quite some time, then I kept drawing more than uptading. Then I thought I should start a new one as I had improved a lot since last thread.
ovset: Coming, coming :)

And here is stupid speedpaint.. Somekind of futuristic cityscapeview with snow.. yes, those tiny white balls are snow, stupid concept....

[Vulgar`]

Those hive patterns are held within winter seclusion. I'd like to see you design an all out winter battlefield, recombinations combined for a clash of solidity. A suggestion for your latest: A central pattern could be marked at the center of the horizontal cityscape - maybe one signal of symbolic significance that rises above the city and the atmosphere.

Keep doing you

[Pascallo]

The first post is awesome already, keep posting!

[Mitchell]

Hey man, you have some pretty cool things in here. Especially like the little sketches in your book. Enviros are pretty sweet as well. Anatomy is your weak spot, just keep studying those books, drawing from life and you'll be well on your way. Waiting for some more.
-mitch

[XaNverse]

The images in this SB and in the site are great. I'd like to see more.
Thanks for the comment in my SB.
Happy drawing!!!

[MeTaL-Mike]

[Jokisalo]

Vulgar`: Thanks for advice!!
Pascallo: Thank you
Skeiff: True true, always been afraid of anatomy.. Just lately I've got some courage to battle my weakness!
XaNverse: Here is more for ya! Thank you
MeTaL-Mike: Thanks :)

Here is lil speedpaintconcept thingie.. random castledoors idea.. :oneye:

[gkrit]

hey man,

love the enviro pics .. they r awesome coz its like u can feel wats going on in em ... ur an inspiration to me for my enviro pics. u get so much detail and it makes sense which is wat i like. dont really have any negatives coz they capture everything a picture should... GOOD JOB :D

[themissinglink]

awsome sketchbook, the speedpaints are really impressive, the only suggestion i have is to maybe add some subtle color shifts in your images.

[towy]

nice speed painting; Beautiful textures

[Jokisalo]

gkrit: Woot, thank you a lot pal!
themissinglink: Thanks for advice, you are totally right in that. I'm kind a new to coloring and sucking hard in it!! Trying to study that shit hard!
Towarlock: Thanks!

[lennon]

Oh man! It´s so sad that there´s so little!

[Dan Valkar]

nice castle entrance...nice colors and texture!!

[Flipnastywebby]

nice progress
I love the textures

Slainte!

[Jokisalo]

lennon: More to come ;)
Dan Valkar: Thank you
Flipnastywebby: Thanks

Here is couple of fan art/competition pieces.. Never done really fanart, just couple of times and I have to say it was a huge challenge and hellowafun!!
Hope you guys enjoy!

[c@s]

Nice sketchbook man, I really like your enviroments, I need to try something like that

[stoph]

the fanart is a little indistinct, i would suggest some further sharpening of details, push your highlights and shadows, dont rely on textures to carry the image. keep it up mate :)

[Jokisalo]

c@s: Thanks man and good luck with your enviros!
stoph: Thanks for crit!

[Jokisalo]

todays speed 10min..
drunkengayzombierobot...

Drunken gay zombie robot,, It could happen LOL
very cool, reminds me of Ashley Wood.

[Jokisalo]

DARAF: Why not, why not? ;D Thanks for looking.

[Flaskpost]

Flippin sweet robot! Good you´re back, man!

[ICH]

Jokisalo, thanks a lot for visiting my SB.
I see some really great works here, man! The blue piece have a great mood, so evocative. I like your freedom on using brushes, really nice brushstrokes.
I'm pretty jealous of your capability to sketching on tiny surfaces; i LOVE the moleskine, but every time that i try to use it, i'm go crazy!

[clawhide]

Really enjoy the Castle Doors. Intense.

http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=74806

[iwantjelly]

Nice stuff, I like your very lively brush strokes and speed painting style. The 10 mn robot is pretty impressive for such a short time

[ghoulio]

He realy looks kinda gay haha,great updates...

Cya...

[.:J/A\X:.]

you have some very good pieces. keep it up.

also, it looks like you're using m@'s brush set. I always liked his brushes.

[Vulgar`]

Homosexual robots - this is the next step. Continue.

[bwitzke]

I like the texture in your environments... very rich... I'm also digging the geometric abstract elements in a couple...

[Jokisalo]

Flaskpost: Thanks!
ICH: Thanks a lot pal :)
clawhide: Thanks
iwantjelly: Really? Thank you.
ghoulio: Defenetely it does ;D
.:J/A\X:.: Yeah some of his yes.. He defenetely have some of the greatest texture brushes I've seen/used. Thanks for him for sharing.
Vulgar`: Hahah glad you like it! :D
bwitzke@cca.edu: I feel like you are first one who really undestands me, than you!

[Cold]

Goood all round skills, except workload, where are dose pics?:O lol

[Jokisalo]

Cold: Thanks :D

Sorry for lame uptade..

[Jokisalo]

Todays random concept, trying to expand my portfolio..
Hopefully you like.

[Morgoth_AR]

Hey, thanks for posting in my SB. :)

These latest ones are killer, a huge improvement over your others. In the insect one, you should shade the legs in the background a bit more, they look a bit too prominent. Also, maybe you should add some minor imperfections on them. Right now you can tell they were duplicated.

Otherwise, really nice. Keep it up.

[Henchman 21]

rad environments man, very cool colors as well.

[zeroe]

I really like the way your sketchbook pages are so busy and great looking....my sketchbooks always look really bland because I always get bored with crappy little drawing I do so I just often simply move on and leave alot of empty space...some really nice work you got here tho!

[SixPrism]

Hey, thanks for stopping by my sketchbook.

Love your ink sketches and stopped by your web site, you have some incredible pieces in there! Can't wait to see the next update.

[Antropos]

I checked your website...great stuff there! I saw some of your anatomy studies are from the Barcsay anatomy book too.
Thanks for stopped by my sketchbook.

[Jokisalo]

Morgoth_AR: Thanks for crit!
Henchman 21: Thank you
zeroe: Thanks, just keep hitting that book, don't put too much energy in details, more lines less details!
SixPrism: Thanks a lot pal! And here you have a uptade, hope you enjoy.
Antropos: Thanks :)

Here is todays speedy, hope you enjoy!

[Jokisalo]

Today's 1 hour speedpaint..
It's already 6am -_- I think I need some sleep now.

[liam.c]

looking good man ! balence out the textrues with non textrued bits <cloth slick metal and plastic , concreet ect > will give the textured and non textured bits more punch ! contrasting them like that !

[XaNverse]

The last post is great. keep it up

[Krist]

I really like the fuzzy detailism in your drawings and paintings, all them lines and shades create a very very dark and chaotic enviroment, cheers mate

[Jokisalo]

liam.c: Thanks a lot liam!!
XaNverse: Thank you
Krist: Thanks

Once again it's 5am and I'am drawing.. Shoud be in bed by now, tho I had to post this latest speedpaint I just finished. Somekind of ammo carrying gaymonster. Go figure it out..

[Flaskpost]

Bloody awesome gaymonster! I want to do one as well! Really pretty textures mate!

[liam.c]

[Jokisalo]

Flaskpost: Don't you think he is kind a gay!? Thanks :D
liam.c: Thank you

Selfportrait and todays 30min speedpaint.. once again 5am -_- sleep sleep-->

[ped454]

All your stuff has an interesting texture to it. Very slick.

[Davio]

I really like your environments, Great texture and compositions, Thanks for sharing

[Carbono]

Nice sketchbook man, i love the last guy, all the colors and strong lines are really nice!
Keep it going!

[Jokisalo]

This one is flippin´ good! Falls in my taste perfectly! Love that crazy graphic style!
Keep it up man, and happy new year! =)

[Farvus]

Cool sketchbook. I like some of the designs.
All those textures are interesting to look at but be careful beacause sometimes form is lost under them like in the last pic.
Keep it up!

[Henchman 21]

that dude up top reminds me of people from tron.

which is good

cause tron rules.

keep it up!!!!!!!!

[dkounios]

love that last one man.
you got a kick ass style, all dark and gritty. at least
I think so. keep it up man!

This one is flippin´ good!

I agree. I like how the facial features and everything still came through very accurately while keeping the almost chaotic style.

Nice job with these, keep it up.

[zeroe]

I saw how you left me such a wonderfully nice post in my sketchbook so I thought I'd check yours out too, give it a little dabble if you know what I"m saying :P

Anyways, I like your art very much, I see a great deal of things in there ranging from gigeresque to cyberpunkish aswell as some great fantasy style elements combined into one dope style...I also like how you make your sketchbook have that "cool" sketchbook look with nice looking scribbles and full pages etc...mine always look bland and empty because I often times am very impatienty and move on after failing to get a drawing to look right after 2 mins...ah the frustration :P....anyways enough waffle....great stuff ye got here

[Jakers]

Good style developing, something tells me your going to take what you know now and hone it into a more perfected use of texture...but your off to a great start.

Are a majority of the textures brush combinations...any photo use? Have you done a lot of general value and form studies? You have some great works in your webpage also (check it out if your looking over this SB). Time to post more new stuff!

[marioucci]

Yeah sexy sexy!

A bit on Snygg with somewhat of M@ no?

Still an original style forming up in the horizon.

Love it all man

Congrats

Mario

[tokotewhero]

hey, nice work. looking forward to seeing more

[Jokisalo]

Speedpaint eow entry, replies later.. now to bed--->

[Lakka]

Hey hey, it's nice to see you doing some more colorful work, quantity wise that is!

I got to say that they are looking pretty sweet, Nice stuff :)

The suggestion I'd have is to be a bit more careful when using textures, like that fly-like creature became awfully flat thanks to the texture just being slapped on it.

Kipitup :D
