February 22nd, 2008, 09:13 AM
Really cool stuff!! :)
Check your foreshortening in the perspective. The poster of the girl in the parking lot image and the roof tiles in the hallway especially. These elements should be more compressed. The girl poster and the exitsign for instance looks like it's pointing towards us moreso than the wall, and the circles in the cieling looks like metre long ovals.
Keep it up. Good designs!

Wow amazing update.
I love your matt paints. I attempted one of my own the other night. I've managed to collect a nice collection of royalty free textures now so thought I should try putting them to some good use! It is a great way to put your ideas across for an environment really quickly if you don't have absolutely hours to spend on a piece.
How long roughly did it take you to render those hallway images by the way?

Yeah, I have to agree, great pencil work. You've also got some very nice dynamic poses, the "neo" character with the sword, the explosion/soldier, I like those poses. I like the variations of the room, but... seriously.. move on! :P You are certainly capable of doing the same style scene without the same base perspective and composition.
I like the rainbow color fairy for it's colorfulness, though if i had to crit, I don't feel like there is any context in the scene to help push the concept. Cool stuff, keep posting!
VanDog

You've got some of the best images I've ever seen. The gritty texture of your environments is what really caught my eye. It makes the pieces much more immersive and real. I love how you veer away from the ultra slick digital look a lot of artists go for. I can't wait to see more stuff!

try these for size:

The cinematic feel to these is really cool, especially the one with the robots and the blurry barbed wire in the foreground. They're very seamless and natural-feeling and even the rough, sketchy areas have a definite sense of shape. I can't wait to see more.

Really rad designs and nice vibrant colors. Sometimes the skin tones can look a little dead, try experimenting with more putting some more subtle hues onto the face. Keep at it man, inspiring work.

last two pieces are really strong man, major improvement there.
I like http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t295/Van_Dog/skuller.jpg as well, great shapes ^^
I would add some more colours to your last piece to add some more interest.
Add some contrast as well to establish a focus, very nice overall though.
Cheers!

Wow breathtaking sketchbook.
My favorites by far are in the first set. The goblin guy in B&W and the gladiator - glowing pieces.

I am officially inspired by the bug series. Love'n it!
This last image with the girl, I think you've got something going on in the rougher top right version, the sharper brushes give it a nice punchy and lively feel. Though there is a better warmth in the bottom right panel. If you can keep those warm colors, and vary between soft and hard edges, I think you can get the best of both worlds on that piece. Sweet stuff, keep on keep'n on!

That mosquitoish-creature looks really cool!
I think you could of tried to do some sharp edges on the last portrait to make it pop, good none the less :)

I like your pencils and quicker digis. They seem to have more energy in them with the marks made and the gestures.
Really cool stuff here.
