Mark's Official Sketchbook

[stormrider85]

ok ive posted some smaller crapier sketchbooks before so some people might have already seen some of the work already but this is a more of a fuller collection.

Im a 19 year old graphics student who hates graphics and would rather be a concept artist or illustrator but theres not much jobs for that here in Australia so im doing graphics. i started my own group on here called beginners corner which will be starting a whole new year with new stuff its in the community activity section if anyones interested.

most of these works are shit but im still trying....very slowly

btw does anyone know how to make a link to their sketch on every post they make i really wanna know how to do that.

ok here where i started doing digital stuff, i use this brush called smooth paint which i found on this site but i recently want to change to default round with opacity set to pen pressure because all my work never ends up smooth.

theres some self portraits somewhere in here

the last one is a painting i spent ages ago but it just looks like i tried to over detail and shotty painting, cant really work out where i went wrong i have heaps of trouble understanding colours for some reason

yeah! thats a great start! I think you should work a little on the anatomy part. like the ribcage, it contains 12 ribs :)

i really like your stuff though!

keep it up
