Very nice dude!

[WARHEAD]

You have some cool stuff goin' on and a nice style, clean lines. Let's see more...

[Badger]

As has been said but with a lot more short hand, great stuff!!
These (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/Scan10133.jpg) loose ones are wonderful!
The orange from this one (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/bl.jpg) detracts from your really nice choice of colours because it's so different. I thinks it's just too far away from your chosen range.
Glowing nipples? (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/Untitled-1222.jpg)

Keep it up! beautiful work!

[hEcTic]

Damn, this stuff blows me away,
Keep posting :)

[mentler]

Give this thread the FIVE STARS it deserves

Works still rocking <> love the loose start on your drawings <> what are you using <> environs are just killer <> register over at SoFA and we will Showcase your works.

Saw you fell off the page pretty quick thought I would give your a seat on the front row.

[Tigermilk]

Great stuff! Although I want more pencil sketches! :)

Förresten, jag är lite nyfiken. Förut höll du på med ngt bokprojekt. Du ritade en bunt bilder till någon bok alltså. Den handlade bland annat om folktro eller ngt sådant, har jag för mig. Eller är jag helt ute och plaskar? I vilket fall som helst.. Har den boken kommit ut ännu? Kommer vi att få se mera illus av dig till boken här?

Keep it up!

[Ben Shore]

Great stuff! Love all the textural details, reminds me of Akira.

[tuchten]

thanks all! great having your support..

mentler, atleast i know you will give me five stars..=) thanks for you great cred.

tiger. boken kommer att komma ut strax efter nyår. allt gick som smort från min sida; är riktigt nöjd. kan dock inte visa några färdiga verk som du förstår.

ok, this one is REALLY crappy, but whatever. I must post something, so..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/rockliten.jpg

[tuchten]

k
iv been practicing pretty hard lately, just doing quick sketches.
Not only do I think this is the right way to approach drawing,
its also good to somewhat forget about making goodlooking pictures..

I havent had time to scann it all and these are just photos of the sketchbook.
be warned, these sketches arent much to look at, but practice is practice.

[Art_Addict]

your environment speedy's are really nice. How long does one take?

[tuchten]

Art_Addict. thanks man! some 10 min, others more.

[PHATandy]

Good stuff here man tuchten, you have some great designs. Your enviros are really cool, i like them.

The things i dont like are pobably your characters, you have some good design and stuff but i think alot of them are lacking proper propotions and look very funny, you defintly need to do studies and work on this. The same applie to your faces, you similar to me, being that faces seem to be your main weakness. The proportions seem funny on some, and feature placement isnt perfect either. Proper human studies will help u immensly here.

I like some of your paintings, the colours are great but your use of the small brush comes off really scratchy and sketchy. Trying workin with a bigger brush to get a better flow of colours etc.. dont sort of shade in the one colour, like you would do with a pencil, The ones with the large fuzzy paint brushes would be an excellent start, the colours and composition look great. Work in the details from here gradually, not jumping straight to the small bruishes and they would look immmense.

This said though, i think uve improved greatly from your first post. Looks like all your work is paying off.

Great job, looking forward to seing more improvments.

[neoknocker]

As always Tuchten, Awesome work. Truely inspiring.

Hat's off. :hatsoff:

[tuchten]

neoknocker: thanks alot mate!

PHATandy. Thanks? are you for real? Not to throw away your critique here but. Do you really think that this stuff comes likes news to me? And there is something odd about telling me these things when you are far from half as experienced as i am. You have seen my stuff, and you probably know that one almost always is familiar with ones flaws. I know what i have to work with.
"Trying workin with a bigger brush to get a better flow of colours etc.."
man.. this cuts like knives in my ears.. What are you? 16? 17 years old?
There is levels of help that i cant stand..

About rating: Nice to see that you people have voted high for my tread! Thanks alot all of you. But then again, i had five stars- and 8 votes. And now i have 4 stars and 9 votes. Does this mean that some poor dude have voted like 1 star for me? How does this work, help?

[tuchten]

oh and another thing andy: "and feature placement isnt perfect either"
in my point of view, perfect isnt something to work for. Unlike you, i didnt grow up on CA. I found my own way and i intend on keeping it. In this case im glad you find my work unperfect.

[tuchten]

hope im not being to harsh here.
if that be the case, then im truly sorry. (my biggest problem may be this kind of conflicts)

[Mr.Blonde]

very cool stuff here, inspiring thumbs and markers. However, for some reason, which I cannot place, I seem to like your thumbs more than your speedies. Keep up the seemingly intense practice!

[Moysturfurmer]

Wow. You are a god among some other gods and a huge group of men.

[tuchten]

JackalAnubis: thanks alot! now im back to 5 stars it seems. :rendered:

whoa, that is one swanky city scape there! Technique is awesomeness!

[Twisted Nail]

Wow, great usage of colours and composition! That sketchbook is a joy to look upon. You can handle yourself really well in many different techniques. Awesome inspirational stuff, keep it up!

[tuchten]

thanks all
twisted nail: it one of my goals to be able to master as many different techniques as I can. Before I die that is.. :wink:

dont take this sketches to serious, they are lightning fast and really crappy.

[Yodaah]

Hi,

you did some very cool character designs in your whole thread. Well balanced and interesting. That's good work. I prefer your drawn stuff, not to much the digital rendered, because those are not as fine and detailed as the pencil character designs.

All really interesting characters. I'm sure you'll get somewhere with those designs.

cheers!

[AndrewLey]

Some very cool stuff in here man!

[PHATandy]

Sry if your thought my comments were stupid and biased but im just trying to throw in my opinnion.

Your say this as if your a professional, how am i supposed to now this.. for all i know you could be my age.

From what ive seen of your art, i thought all your stuff was really great. Im just trying to throw in My Opinnions, which i thought you might appreciate, apparently i was wrong in thinking u might be nice and appreciate these oppinions. I do really like alot of your stuff and your could be really great if you improve on these areas.

Sorry again if you think im just being a prick and insulting you by picking up on some areas i immediatly thought was lacking compared to the rest in my eye.

Alot of tlk on this forums is just ass kissing in terms of art(acceptable in most cases), id like to think that even the pros (like yourself ? )would like some critique on lacking areas etc.

Maybe i was wrong...

[BlueMech]

I like your enviroments and your mechs. I'd suggest working on your human figures though, they leave something to be desired.

[character]

i would recommend working on your anatomy some more, just like phat mentioned. your gestures need some more work too i think. you've got some cool design choices going on here but the akward poses of the legs and feet throw off the drawing as a whole. your enviro's are good tho, as well as your mechanical stuff. keep it up. and try not to take criticism so harshly man, it comes with the territory. if you don't like what someone says, don't attack them and thier work. some people never get critiques that in depth. that should be treasured, not tossed back in thier face. peace out

[vigostar]

tuchten- Hey dude... You have some nice works here.. I really like the last enviro on the last page and last set of characters.. they look less cluttered.. But, I must say that your attitude stinks... If your one to not care for opinions because you think you have everything under control then you should state it in your thread.. in large bold print... I HATE CRITS SO DONT LEAVE ME ANY!!!.. This is a forum where artists from all walks of life come to share and hopefully improve by beig in a sort of classroom environment where we feed of eachother and their crits... The remark you made about Phat being not even half an artist as you really stunk up this nice thread.. There are artists on this forum like DSillustration, Fellah, Lewiston, Hurricane and many others that are on top of their game and when you leave them a comment or crit they listen and are happy to hear your opinion.. I guess being a good artist doesn't you have a good attitude also.. Too bad..

[tuchten]

I am sorry. :(
I wich to say this to phatandy and everyone that took my statement as negative. I really have a problem with critique. Maybe this should be at the top o my tread, Il put it there later. I wasnt my intension to act bad or make a big thing out of this. I just coudnt keep it in me. Can anyone understand this? Sorry again for being to most insensitvite artist around.

to my defense:
in my way of looking at this, and analysing my reaction afterworth i have notised a few things..There are, as everybody know, many ways of giving qritique. Was I the only one who felt it to be in a rather disturbing and offensive way? Also, one must consider the need for critique of this kind. Was it well placed and needed? Did i work only with what i am best at forgetting about the struggle? I have in a 3 week period showed extremely many quick studies to get better feeling for anathomy. I also have been doing alot och portrait practising and human studies. Man, I havent been doing nothing but studies almost! To me its like showing up at a gym and telling another man to keep up the work, your looking fat. I am practising, and this kind of talk doesnt help me out.

I didnt say i was a pro, im not. But I do find it strange that the (until now) only person commenting this things is phatandy. (who is doing great for his age but cannot match me with years and thus lacks my experience)
strange? mentler, who is probably one of the artists in this place with most dedication to anathomy didnt comment it. In fact he saw value in my loose and quick sketches. I know its the way for me.
Sure i could sitt 5 minutes longer with each sketch making it more "perfect".
But i wouldnt be tuchten. I put feeling over perfection and i will continue to do so.

to sort out different word that got loaded wrong:

vigostar. "The remark you made about Phat being not even half an artist as you really stunk up this nice thread" He is probably a better artist as he can give and take crit witout problem.. I stated a mere differense in age and experience. Coming from someone else this critique may have been met differently i confess. I underestimate Andys ability to know wich brushes best for me, how i should work differently, and what i need to work with to become perfect.

"for all i know you could be my age" hmm. i dont know if i can melt this down. I just dont think so. sorry :[

I really apologize for my rude behavior. I appreciate all of your support people. I hope a havnt turned you down for good. I think one of the main resons i have problem taking critique is that i push myselfe so hard, that when anyone else puts in a finger and points, it becomes salt in my wounds. THIS is something that i really have to work with. :\ So again. Sorry Phatandy and everyone who got upset about this. Hope you can understand my point of view (atleast a bit) and that we can get passed this debate and focus on my work again.

to top this I would like to bring you a collection of different studies. (this is insensitive i know ;) )
and now to come clean:
DONT CRIT ME ON THESE THINGS, THEY ARE YEARS OLD!!

Again, sorry for this dispute andy. (comment this things and il kill ya) ;)

[PHATandy]

Thanks for the kind reply tuchten, thanks for the hidden comments aswell.

It seems a bit more obvious about the comments, especialy with all these studies. Its quite obvious how much youve been working.. and have improved.

On a side note, i think all the hand studies are real kick ass here.

In with your comments about perfection, i understand your feeling behind perfection, and not wanting to get it.

But there is a difference between perfection, looking good... and just noticably un studied and so on.

I think you dont have to be perfect to be able draw realistic faces that fit in with your style. You can still keep your 'tuchten' style as you like to call it, without being perfect and a completly realistic drawing. But atm, i think and you probably know that it still needs 'some' work.

Just my 2 cents.

Looking forward to more updates, as believe it or not i think some of your work is pretty good, esp your enviros and techy stuff.

Andy.

[tuchten]

thanks man, glad that you replied.
ofcourse i still need to work, thats what i do..

[BlueMech]

I'm glad you're understanding better now. In this thread I don't think the crits were harsh at all, and personally I don't mind harsh crits, the harsher the better in many cases, as long as it doesn't deface the artist's charcacter (which wasn't present here). Keep in mind friends and family are often biased, and plces that are full of artists struggling to to improve will be far less likely to really crit anything. And the last thing: Even the worst artists in the world can crit something; just because he can't do better, doesn't mean he can't see better,

Oh yeah, your last batch of art posted had some really nice studies. I especially like the hand and feet ones.

[john1990]

your stuff is da best i love your style

[Zord]

This is another thread i've bookmarked; i'm really enjoying the sketches of all the studies. Shows me what needs to be done and to keep pushing studies like you have. Very cool sketchbook. Keep it up. :teeth:

Hello, tuchten! Wonderful art! I enjoyed it very much. The most impressive for me were sanguine dragon, nudes, head studies, environments. So thank you

And thanks alot - I guess I should scurry off and update my sketchbook, since the thunderdome embargo's over now.

Motley <> need their addresses <> having a party <> page patrol here <> you were about to fall into the abyss!

[sve]

Hello, tuchten! Brilliantly made pirates. Together they look even more powerful as it should be. They've got flesh on them. They are full of life and weight. Ready to step on pages of children book and cause to some ugly clash :).
I like the meaty fish too.
Sveta Dudetta.

[tuchten]

mentler, wtf are you talkning about? :\
sve, thanks man!

quickies:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/Scan10170.jpg

[sve]

Very dynamic. How quick?
Sveta

[tuchten]

quick quick. i set the timer on 5 min, but i often have 2 och more minutes over..=/

[Moysturfurmer]

Rad figures, but your pirates... Not one of them has an eyepatch. Or eyepatches, I'm flexible.

[sve]

Very impressive. Post more
Sveta Dudetta

[Nutter]

Ahh, your quick characters are fantastic. cheers

[tuchten]

Farmer: hehe, well.. what can I say. =(
sve. prepare to take back your last complement:

fall behind, left behind:

[sve]

Hey, tuchten! Love them even more from the close range :P . Very powerful manner to express yourself and fun to observe. I like the last figure.He is fleshy and very serious about his intentions :). Looks like Brice Willis :).
Sveta Dudetta

[princeofhappiness]

Awesome characters. What medium do u use for your renderings? Looks like graphite or charcoal.

Keep it up!!

[tuchten]

thanks sve, glad you dont give up on me.. ;)

princeofhappiness. thanks! if you are refering to the pirates, they are maid with a very soft (8b dark wash) graphite pen.

[mentler]

Missed a couple of post here ‡ working on DVD's ‡ like the group of thumbnail ‡ coming up with poses from imagination helps to fill the memory banks

[hEcTic]

great update!

[tuchten]

huh im back, but im not in harmony.

mentler: thanks mate! yeh, iv heard about the dvds, sounds great. Where can i read more about these?

hectic, thanks dude, one or two more of these and im back on 5 stars..;) thanks

more studies
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/Scan10156.jpg

[sve]

Hey, tuchten. I like your style! This coarse unpolished shading really adds to their characters. Why are you not in harmony? Go somewhere, see other people, have some fun. Snap out of it.
Sveta Dudetta

[JAIR428]

DUDE!
nice veriety here on all those different concepts!

i especially love those digital paintings with alot of perpective and texture AND ATMOSPHERE AND>>>...!!!!...........!!!

-this is an exciting! iam checkin here more often very inspiring digital paintings! ..........wow!

-peace :bashful:

[Dirty C]

Dude that last page of faces rocks. The way you've indicated the planes with shading is an excellent sign of how you're going to treat it in a painting. Rock on ma badass friend.

[Art_Addict]

Hey,

Man, your proportions are way off man, you should really begin your anatomy studies !!!! lol , just kidding man, i'm sorry , couldn't resist mate. :)
Was fun to read that Andy skirmish. I understand your reaction man . Just don't make that big a deal out of it.

Anyway, love your character sketches. That pirate sketch is top notch! I like your environments too , however i would like to see some rendered more from time to time.

Keep up the nice work man!
Cheers
Tom

[Art_Addict]

Btw , you didn't answer my question before. How long does an environment like that take approx. ?
Thanks

[Moysturfurmer]

EYE PATCHES!
I can die a happy man.

[cartoonfox]

damn dude! awesome work here. are you going to prague workshop? would be cool to meet up and sketch.

keep updating man



peace :7up:

[Azeira]

hey tuchten. havent been in here for awhile, but im amazed with sketches youve desplayed. also, glad to see someone got to the pirate drawings sometime or another. shame you beat me to it though, lol. look forward to seeing further updates.

Woodruff

[mentler]

Love em' <> will update on DVD's in 2 weeks

[van]

Crazy updates, man. I dig your style.

[insomb]

this stuff is sweet. i put some of your stuff on my desktop for inspiration. anyone that inspires you? i know this probably sounds like a dumb question, but im new at this what kind of media are you using in the pictures that are really colorful, it looks like acrylic paint or something similar? its the ones that you said were posted on a speedpaint thread.

[insomb]

p.s. its the ones on the first page.

[P E N Ricklund]

Nice work. You are on killingspree.
Your quick ones are really good.
I this last one the feel a little inspirated by Bergting or maybe Tapia.

Hugs!

[bgl]

shweet designs there. i must say i'm digging your loose work. digging i say.

[hurricane]

very loose and agressive style, i like it alot !

cheers man !

[tuchten]

sve: hehe. your guidence is without limit! hehe, im fine..just a little out of focus :/

JAIR428: thanks alot man! glad you liked my digitals! I havent haunted my wacom for some time now, but il give you some fresh painting within short.. ;)

dirty_c: thanks man.. yeah i feel i found something with that technique..

Art_Addict: haha wtf! Its ok i kind of makes fun of it myselfe in my first post (now edited as promised, be sure to check out the first page of the SB)
Hey, thanks really. Glad you like my work. I thought I already answered that, well.: some of the paintings take 10 minutes or more, but i usually put my timer on 5 min.

Moysturfurmer: hhehe, you cant die, maybe il bring more eyepatches..=) il send you a PM if that be the case :teeth:

cartoonfox: ohman, that would be great, but im not going.. anyway thanks!

Azeira: thanks alot friend! Glad you checked in ;)

mentler: thanks.. Il be sure to check that out!

van: cheers man!

insomb: no problem man! The piece you talk about is a digital painting.

Pencilator. thanks man. shit this is no killingspree, atleast it doesent feel like it..=) the very last picture? the face studies? Not really inspired by anyone. I know both tapia and bergting, demons.. =)

bgl: cheers mate!

hurricane: thanks mate, thanks alot!

Hey, Tuchten! Guidance, OMG, what did I say. No, I don't guide :).
About update. Looks colossal. Together it's like the final accord done with 8 hands in this Beatles song "A Day In The Life". Did you hear it: "I read a news today, oh boy..." So this is my association when I looked at your update
Sveta Dudetta

[Art_Addict]

Wohoooo sweet update dude!!
Love the guy in armor. Nice graphic style. And the little ' tunnel' studies are cool too

Cheers

[Dirty C]

what are the bike game things for, dude? Just an idea? Or something that was actually used? I've only just started drawing any mechanical stuff at all, and environments for that matter. This stuff is totally inspiring.

[tuchten]

sve. heh, so weird. thanks!

Art_Addict: cheers addict! Glad you enjoy the show! :wink:

hey dirty, thanks man. Im glad you like this stuff!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/cowfish.jpg

[Tigermilk]

gah! dopedopedope!!!!11
Latest one rooocks!

aja, ska sluta tjata, du vet ändå redan att jag följer din tråd hela tiden oavsett. ;)
Den senaste är för övrigt riktigt grym, mera sånt.
Staffan

DUDe..... tuchten.... sweet faces. I always have trouble putting variety into mine!

[tuchten]

yeea! as you can see thats my problem also..;)

[cartoonfox]

damn man, im so envious of your skills man. both pencil and digital.
too bad your latest cow was not accepted. it kinda made me angry, it does seem as though the rule book is shoved in peoples faces at random times. ah well, i loved it! ^-^ i think it fits very well with the "arctic" topic.
anyway, did you send me a pm? i didnt get it.


keep it up dude, i love to check out your sketchbook on a more than daily basis for inspiration and eye candy ^-^



peace man :7up:

[Bojee]

Damn, better and Better. Five stars all the way. :)

[hurricane]

great stuff !!

jag gillar verkligen farten och agressiviteten i dina linjer...

mer tack :P

cheers!

[Gloominati]

yeah hot new stuff, dude. I think that one guy already mentioned it but your pieces remind me so much on HPX's stuff. Really damn ass-kicking and inspiring. Keep on rocking, mate!!

[sasco]

Tuchten, your work is simply stunning. I especially like the futuristic cityscapes, you should put up some tips or tutorials cuz I'm dying to know how you do it. :)


Cheers
-Matt

[RasselTassel]

Tuchten's Blitzkrieg Bop!.. hate to say i love the nazis this time... Hey Ho, Lets Go!

[dCepT]

Very nice! Diggin' on the loose style as so many others here do.. Please post more!

d-C

[tuchten]

cartoonfox: damn man, thanks alot. your words made my day. :rolleyes:

Bojee: you think? hope so. i work so much and cant really feel the progress.. :[
thanks!!

hurricane: tack björn (kände att jag var tvungen att nyttja ditt namn) tack som faen! var bor du? vi skulle träffas och kolla bilder och skissa. jag är lite hurricane fanboy. =)

Gloominati: thanks man! I know HPX, but for me its this way; I relate more to Sinix, who probably relate more to HPX than to me.. =) love them both thu..

sasco: gee thanks dude! tutorial, well all i got is 30 steps in the procces of making my troll up there. not really cityscape but..;)

RasselTassel, mitt krig har bara börjat. sorry om jag snor ditt concept mannen, kan bara inte rå för det. (tänker såhär, du är 2-3 månader äldre än mig, jag måste kötta dig bara) haha, =) seriöst mannen, du äger mig and always has..

dCepT, cheers dude, more is coming now..

tuchten- Yeah bro, easy! Are these part of a story your doing? If not they should be. I think the middle one is my favorite. :)

[Lake]

Tuchten, dude, these are sa-weet!

if you don't mind my asking, what size/shape brush are you using? can you Screenshot it?

[kapturowski]

Wow, I really like how you use pens. The pirates are really awesome.

[[DAN]]

aggressive , i like them a lot.GOOD STUFF.

[sve]

I like this rough manner to paint and draw a lot. And colors. A lot of attitude in all your work. Always enjoy looking. Do you have any women or children in here? Would you like to show them to me. I wonder how they gonna look drawn by you.
Sveta Dudetta

[asoir]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/Scan101412.jpg is sublime! Great stuff!

[Badger]

Very nice stuff here, Great range too. I'd love too see a bit more detail on the foregrounds of those pieces, but thats personnal pref.
Lovely work.
-B-

[Diego]

hell man, this is really good stuff. I really like the enviro pages.
Sweet, i'll check this SB more often. :)
Cheers

[Twisted Nail]

What kind of markers did you use on the bike concepts? Your COW is great btw!

[RasselTassel]

Hehe... tuchten, there's a piece of you in everything i do nowdays.. maybe i followed you? ; ) ...irresistible subject anyway.. keep those nazis running.. i like what i see =)

[tuchten]

Bojee: thanks man! not really, but i do like to make many pictures on the same theme just for fun..

panda: cheers! no problem asking, however i just reinstalled PS and forgot to save my brushes, so these are made with PS standard

kapturowski, thansk mate!

[DAN] cheers dude, il add aggressive to my signuture. =)

sve. thanks friend! i dont draw that much women, have to work on that. no problem with children, just dont usually do it..;)

Asoir, heh thanks!

Badger, yeah man, this is mostly sketches. im in a period of less details and more..something else..=)

Diego, thanks alot!

Twisted Nail, the green and orange enviros and bikes? its a filt pen..=)

RasselTassel, aooo! so good to have you around, feel my wrath!:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/tuchten%20begins/angeltexliten.jpg

[Bojee]

Cool, they would make a great comic book. This last reminds me of Apocalypse from the X-men story. :)

[joiton]

I'll be seriously planing to destrrrrrroy your handsssss....

[joiton]

..:)..

[Lake]

good. god... wow. this one is GREAT... I have a new favorite palette.

[Gloominati]

awesome new update, dude!!!
I am currently studying your stuff especially all your enviros and roboter sketches and digital paintings. Since I am studying a lotlotlot of human anatomy I am neglecting all this stuff like enviros and mechs. I want to change that and since in my opinion this is one of the best threads arround here including stuff like that and since I belong to the sort of guys who hate drawing something without knowing how it actually works, I decided to study some of your stuff.

In short words : Your stuff is damn ass-kicking keep up the great work, so that dudes liek me can keep learning :) (Btw: why the fucking hell has this thread only 4 stars ??? )

[shyamshriram]

POWERFUL STUFF as usual !

keep rocking my friend !

btw u can call me just Shyam ;)

[Art_Addict]

The last one you posted is a killer!!!

I think you would sometimes be able to spice those environments up if you used another colored light source in them. Most of the time they seem a little monochromatic.

[sve]

Hello, tuchten. You know all your work could be great for representing a heavy metal music. I don't know, I hear the sounds of it every time I look at your art, maybe you soaked it up or I might be crazy. Maybe both :).The orange painting is great. It inspires me to stand up and break something (just kidding), no, do something, make some breakthrough. Thank you so much for this push to fight.
Sveta Dudetta

[P E N Ricklund]

Oh, nice as hell. Looks like you kill your paintings in a very brutal way :D
Love this last on. Great work man.

Hugs!

[strych9ine]

Love the paintings in here, great thread to browse through.

[Bloodsbane]

Grymt jao!
Been a secret admirer of yours for a while now, cool to see you posting on CA. Been fun to see your pics for Lilja's RTS thing being done in 3D around here too 8)

[BAKI]

holy shit!
i love october 15th work, bad ass i tell you
your a talanted artist, hope i wil get to that stage
be checking so keep em comming

[neoknocker]

Great work. Nice "neo-axises". I really like to drop by. I'm surprised everytime I come here.

[Dirty C]

Dude the nazi bot and the death angel are absolutely awesome. Enough to make even me want to rein my colour choices in haha

And I really love the brushwork you do. So spontaneous and fast. Probably really great for generating silhouette-type stuff at the beginning of an idea.

More.

[hurricane]

tuchten, jag bor i skövde, vart bor du ? högaborg eller nåt? ingen aning vart det är hehe :) antagligen runt götet ? skulle va grymmt koolt o dra en bira eller två och dela skissböcker mellan händerna :D grymma uppdates, mycket inponerande!

cheers!

[Dirty C]

Bud, where are you?

[tuchten]

sorry everyone. im totally down
still working, il be making a grand comeback update later on..

dirty c, much love

[Dirty C]

long time no comeback, bud.

[Hypronost]

wow, amazing works man !
I'm really inspired. I love your bots and samurai type characters.

Bookmarked! Keep updating this man!

[Lake]

s'all good. I'm a little off myself these days.

[van]

Just plain old goodness here. :)

[blkn]

damn, very atmospheric work.. hopefully he makes a comeback one of these days.

[Tigermilk]

Unbelievible updates man! I've just got my very own wacom tablet, it's very cool, though it's really hard with the brushes and the right techniques. Do you know of any sweet tutorials on the net? Or can you even give us some interesting thoughts about digi painting too? Would be cool.

Keep this boat floating, it sure is a beauty.

[Bojee]

Happy Birthday! Missing Your Posts around here. :)

[Dirty C]

Heeey - belated happy birthday.

This is the most sought-after update I know of. Dude, get off your ass!!!

[tuchten]

yeahyeah
hello again friends!

Anyway, feels right to show some of the things iv been working on over the last time. Hope my comeback isnt a disappointment to ya.

Jösses!
That is some awesome pieces and studies! Thats a whole load of car studies, I wish I had your patience. (and skill)

[Orozc0]

Very nice stuff you got here. i really like variation of colors and balance between warm and cool colors, something many artists take for granted. The analougous one's are pretty sick too. Nice pencil work with the characters.


peace

[Skureal]

Huhu Tuchten is back with new cool stuff!
You spent a lot of time on those pieces. You spread into all directions of concept art with enviroments, buildings, chars and technical stuff like vehicles. Keep on being creative, because i fell there is so much more possible with your talent.

Henrik

[Dirty C]

Welcome back dude.

Damn it you work your ass off, huh? Those studies look so damn laborious. Every time I do even a few thumbs I really improve - think I gotta show a bit more of your discipline. What are the red dots above everything?

Nice, man. See you soon I HOPE :P

[hurricane]

yo tuchten, AT LAST !!

great update!, i love each and everyone of the pics shown.

dont be a stranger now !!
more more more!

cheers

[tuchten]

morbid: tack man! känner jag dig från någonstans? svensk ju?
Orozc0: thanks alot dude. Yeah you know, colours isnt my better side either. in fact i cant use colours dammit! =(
Skureal: so much more? wouldnt know about this.. =) (thanks!)
dirty c, yeah man, thanks for dropping by. thumbs is great. i mostly practice nowadays. feels good. the dots are just red filt pen, I put them over the ones i want to scan. il drop a line in your SB soon!
Hurri: Thanks! Il try to keep them sketches coming, but it wont be like the old days..

[mentler]

Really dig your work <> guess that about sez it.

[Thanatos]

nah man, no need to fight. good stuff, i like your variety in characters and it looks like u did them pretty quick so kudos.

[tuchten]

mentleerrrr thanks
thanatos, yeah man. thanks!

oi! lovely update!
jäklarns sköna förvridna människor/monster!
vore underbart att se nåt riktigt fett, som du lagt ner asmycket tid och detaljrunk på. :)

kör hårt!

[wi_2]

Cool stuff there man,
I love the way you contrast with values, adds real interest.

maybe you could try to shape bigger parts more. you seem to build up depth and shape step by step using small 'ramps'.
Be more free and shade whole parts at once.
The bumps add interest but make it look noisy.
you can also try to connect these bumps together so they become flatter and softer. less noisy

[Tigermilk]

haha, that's just handsome!

Snygga och roliga koncept på senaste posten. Gillar killen med IKEA-mössan.
Fortsätt posta!

[sve]

Tuchten, you art and you are huge source of energy, you knock me off my feet every time I look at your imagination and performance. Could your draw your self portrait, please? I'm extremely curious how all this impulse got its way in your own features. Really see you with very round from excitement eyes and jumping eyebrows. Actually, this is how I look when I'm in your thread :).
Awesome, unbelievable powerful art. God, I always feel so grateful when I see a real talent. Just feel so obliged, wish I could give you something, some medal, or a race car :). Oh well.
Everything is my favorite, everything carries great energy in it, even little castles. They are static and silent, but lines re strong and very confident. Love your characters, they are very wild and very alive. Everything breathing, moving, fighting and living its own independent, wild life. So cool.
Thank you so much
Sveta

sve: I dont know what to say. I REALLY appreciate your words! thanks so much for your kindness man. I feel warmer reading this. and I will draw a selfportrait for sure. thanks again..

okey. here is my new shit. spend alot of time doing this first conceptpiece. Finishing it off i now see alot of mistakes and perspectiv wrongs. But, it was worth doing. and the old ship turned out pretty nice.

just a few days ago i found a permanent black marker that i tried out. i really liked the way i could get a fast but cool comic/lineart/tuchten look out of it.
the concepts and design are inspired by old swedish military.

Lovely stuff!
Stars!!
Do you have a website or something?

[tensai]

godddamn this shit is hot. just went through your whole book and im all excited, heart is pumping and i wanna have sex with some of these sketches. and im not kidding either. especially digging the rough and not perfectly correct stuff. its all very versatile but still has its own style.

keep it up man

edit: saw somebody bitching about your cars. well, some of my overall favs are - the environment paints, the cars and the loose sketches like http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/tuchten2/mass/ada2.jpg...

[Ganbat-Bad]

Amazing works.

[Tigermilk]

wtf!?
haha, du krossar mitt självförtroende.. Jag experimenterade lite med några rymdskepps-koncept igår och var helt okej nöjd, så ser jag dina spejsade PS-rymdskepp och blir helt förstörd.. haha
man I suck..

skitsnyggt, fortsätt posta!

[tuchten]

thanks people!
tiger, heh. ja fan va gött. kul att du fortfarande gillar my shit.

Tuchten is my mothers hungarian name. We think we are the only Tuchtens in the world but we are not sure. We have some distant relatives in the US and some other places. If this is one of them opening a fruit store, I dont know. I love it

klockren jäkla fruktaffär! du borde kika upp ifall det är en släkting till dig som har affären ju! :)

dom senaste uppdateringarna har varit grymma! keep em comin!

[Artguy]

Where has this Sketchbook been hiding? Have you been keeping it secret? Now that I know about it I will be back often!

Amazing stuff. I know I will learn a few things looking through your work.

[Lake]

Tuchten - what kind of tablet do you use? I wanna get my hands on a cintiq.

[eXplosiveLimes]

Dude, your robotics and understanding of armor is amazing. What aren't you good at? :)

[SHADOW X]

I love the sketchbook

need a game concept artist

go to http://www.geocities.com/xtypecorp/

submit your info.

the sketches are very good
would like to see more.

[ChrisMayernik]

Wow your work is amazing. AH!! I just want to draw now! man I love the sketches. Sweet.

SHADOW X ... hahaha. I don't think anybody is going to take you seriously when all you have is a crappy website on geocities lacking any kind of info.

[Lake]

Shadow X, are you paying people to do this stuff?

because if you are, you might want to consider moving your hosting and paying for that instead, develop a fan base, then ask for staff. just sayin'.

[CGMonkey]

Hey Tuchten - Most awesome ever. I envy your design talent. Do you live in Högaborg around Helsingborg?

et cetera.. :)

- Drizs

[lloorrdd]

Very, very nice... I like the rough and dark feeling that undermines allot of your drawings...
Thanx for the commenta btw!

[tensai]

great stuff man, sweet work

cheers

[Lake]

SWEET stuff. - how do you make your textures, and what kind of tablet do you use?

texturewise, It looks like you're layering on top of rocks or something......

[P E N Ricklund]

Looking bloody damn good :D
Just re-viewed the two last pages. Really cool with such a wide variation.

Hugs!

[mentler]

Love this thread <> 5 stars here *****

[tensai]

sorry for shouting before man. i couldnt handle it, i thought you bailed on us!

love those thick robot paints and character sketches. love the silhouette of the bottom bot, especially around te arms and legs, and how it is offset with the boots. but the top one works nice because of the bg, better than the bright white..

i agree - five stars.

[tuchten]

thanks people!

panda: i use a really old wacomtablet. intous A4 oversize. Huge and heavy.
i just pick whatever texture I like and apply them with Overlay or Soft light. then edit them the way i want them.

here´s some new work. been testing painter for a change. its great. cant say i fully get a grip of i yet but.. feel free to give me a tutorial.

love working on these vehicles. more of those coming up later on.

[PHATandy]

Excellent stuff tuchten, i really love the ship designs you did up top, love the cleaness and sense of volume/form its great. Characters are looking real good, the guestures are ace of the soldiery type ones, the 'character' and facial distinctions need a little work but are still good.

Good stuff enjoyed looking though, havent seen an update in a while :)
Ty, Andy.

[cartoonfox]

[mull77]

Whoa, great work. Those swedish influenced army sketches hit the spot for me - i'm a sucker for the whole old style military look. Love the ships as well. Really chunky looking and you seemed to have nailed the perspective.

Keep it up dude!

[Fellah.]

Always a pleasure watching your stuff, Tuchten. Keep it up!

[tuchten]

thanks guys!

totally inspired by hurricanes sketches (sorry about the obvious rip)

[Miau]

stunning talent - colors, form and mood are great. keep it up

[Dirty C]

Crappy my ASS. The way you use colour to creat form is lovely. Kinda reminds me of the way Bojee paints with his palette knives. And that colour is just nummy :P
