Border's sketchbook

[Border]

Here's my try for a sketchbook. i will try to keep it updated weekly, in fact i wish to use the "Fire & Motion" strategy just to force me to create, 2D-3D as long i do something.
I have been stuck in some creative rust for too long, so i make myself a little gift by creating this sketchbook.
I start with some old stuff mainly for video game i participated, pro or just for fun. :D
i need to improve my anatomy and digital art.. one things at a time.

decent work I'd say. Like you said, you should do some more anatomy study, thats key to any human figure sketch. Otherwise your ideas are good, i can see those creatures being scary with a little bit of color. Nice job, keep posting (comment my page too)

DaStreets: thanks those were sketch for an old game i try to make. Doom-like.
anyways, doodles.I try to do some life-drawing, catching my 2 kid and my wife but darn it.. they just keep moving.

More stuff. i as suppose to add sketchs daily... i kinda fail i guess.
Most of it are sketch are tattoo related. I tried to keep my skill sharpen in other media but tattoo is my favorite one. I'm currently looking for an apprenticeship near Montreal.

Hey there Border! I'm impressed with the details you're putting in. I can definitely see tattoos being made out of some of those. You are right, you could use a bit of work on the anatomical side of your works, but I think you are doing great so far. I may have to start forcing myself to draw something every day, too. Unfortunately, I can't even get past the first line I put down without saying "NO. Next..."

I see promise, so I hope you keep it up!

i love the last tatoo .. is it watercolor or digital ? ..

[aronjs]

I love your grayscale marker shading, as well as the color!

[Border]

Mookii: thanks, i agree the hardest part is to believe in one self and to stay motivated.
Rain Walker: none its Touch (http://www.touchmarker.co.uk/)marker. They arent the best but are OK for my level and fun to play with.
aronjs: thanks a lot

Sorry i didnt upload my SB enough so here some new stuff.
Again, its very tattoo oriented, i do have some anatomic studies... i need to gather some courage to show them publicly.
So anyways, more to come soon
