I am looking for a good brush, if anyone knows wich one i can use best. Tell me please?

Already thnx

[Aether]

The first one has good brushwork and confident strokes while the other one in my opiniong could use some more blending on the chin area.

But hey for a first attempt your doing pretty damn good so keep it up !

[rWDrk]

well did this one tonight.

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/guyjp.jpg

and this one

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/guyps.jpg

[rWDrk]

Well it didnt turn out the way i wanted but it was a good practice with painter :S . I just use a different brush every time, so i can see wich one is the best for me :tihi:

Well up to the next one :perv:

C&C ALWAYS welkom :tihi:

[styler]

[rWDrk]

Maybe ill work on this one some more.
If anyone have a commend ore hint about the color use, ill appreciate it.
Bye

[rWDrk]

MAde this one in about a half hour. And then it bored me. LOL

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/snel.jpg

There is coming up a pick that i will poste in the finally finished section very soon!

[rWDrk]

I want to do a background for this one. But i really dont know what for background. So if anyone haves a idea...
Let me know what you think

Did my best on this one.
Did it with the pallete knifes in painter.
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/war81.jpg

[rWDrk]

I like to know what you guys think of my work in painter so far and what i can improve. I need tips and tricks if you got some....
I dont know nothing about painter.

And if you help it will go a litlle faster for me to get this program working for me :D

[mull77]

Wow that last one is disturbingly nice. I don't use painter, so i can't help you there, but the although the one with the vanmpire(?) is nice, the lighting seems a bit inconsistant. The metal is glowing with relfected light, making the rest of the scene look dull in comparison. You need to look at how your lighting will affect the whole scene.

Enough nitpicking though! Post more!

[rWDrk]

Ty you for your reply Mull77.
i really like your sketchbook nice works in there

Iam not supose to draw today because of my homework but..f#ck that
I did a qick sketchie thing in painter just to poste some thing for today.

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/sketch.jpg

[Azeira]

hmmm, anatomy studies are advised. but hey, your already better at photo shop than i am, lol. keep up the work, and keep us posted.

[rWDrk]

thanks for ya reply. I know i have to do anatomy studies. Iam planning to do so for a very long time. I think ill start up 2e sketchbook just for my anatomy study's very soon. If ill find the time because i want to update this one 2.
My anatomy studies will be pencil drawings. I have a lot to learn, but what the hack i have still a lot of time......i hope!

[Odds]

hey man... i wanna see some more of your drawings :)
one should have a STRONG foundation in drawing before even attempting painting, imo. so keep it up-

[rWDrk]

Didnt want to go to sleep yet so i started to play with my wacom again :D
Its 4:00 hours now here in Holland.

I spented about 3 hours on this one before i was sleepy enough :zzz: :dead:

I did this one again with the pallete knifes
Hope you like it. IF you dont i want to hear it :yayca:

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/facehairsmall.jpg

This is the close up..
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/facehairbig.jpg

[invinciblewombat]

All of these are looking ver nice, especially the last one, great detail on the nose and lips. As far as painter brushes go, I find the pallet to bethe most versatile, and I personally like the goashe for details and linework. Keep up the painting.

[rWDrk]

Well did this qick today. I dont like to poste this kind of stuff but... ow well its a sketchbook :tihi:
I try to poste every day.

Trying to do a hand here. Looking for the best way to paint a hand
And some weird heads.
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/hoursketch.jpg

[Matt Smith]

your new piece looks pretty interesting. work on practicing your forms of anatomy.

[Azeira]

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/facehairsmall.jpg


fantastic work with the facial hair. the parka hood is quite messy in stroke, but the face holds a very delicate, very real quality to it. now, it may just be my eyes, but is his head at a pivet? it seems like the face slants to his right, and once noticed its rather unsettling.

Woodruff

[rWDrk]

Iam making a sort of clip about Den HAAG (a city in the Netherlands)
In the film there are drawings or paintings and i did this one today of a building in Den Haag. I have a few more of this kind of paintings but its not so interesting, so i will only poste this one :^^:

i hope you like it
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/hofje02.jpg

C&C always welcome
Didnt know if i should poste this but ey its a sketchbook right...

[D.Labruyere]

ghehe, my sister lives in Den Haag and she said she recognised the building, so good job :) I like the rest of your sketchbook also :)

ga zo door! kom zeker nog een keer kijken :)

[gmags]

I like the last sketch you did of the building, rwdrk. Keep it coming. :teeth:

[rWDrk]

Thanks Haldor for your compliments and you 2 gmags, ill will keep them coming :tihi:

Here is a quick painting for the same schoolproject. I wanted to let a stork fly around. So i made this.
Each stork is about 10 to 15 min.

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/Stork.jpg

I hope i finish this project soon. I want to learn more.

Cheers R3M

[loomer]

pretty cool stuff here ...Strong opaque colors..that's brave and bravery is good.
I would suggest dedicating more time to each study...The pic you use as your avatar seems to have taken awhile, and that's good. It shows.
Let's see more of that!
Keep it up man...I wanna see more!

[rWDrk]

Loomer thnx for your reply. I like your sketchbook a lot, really nice work.

Well i am double posting now but i want this one in my sketchbook so.
Finally did a background for this one, hope you guys like it
C&C welcome .

Cheers R3M

[OBX]

u got a decent book starting. Good painter skills. Just need to practice and refine them and ur stuff will look fantastic. That dude in the parka looks ok close up, but wen its all shrunk down as ur avatar it really grabs. Good job.

[Audienda]

Nice!!

Your last one looks very clean and bright and I like that. I agree with OBX about your avatar!
You have the skills and I think we are going to see some nice improvements of you.

Keep it up.

[rWDrk]

Iam making a website for myself.
This painting is going on the startpage.
There is a design around it later on.

I had some trouble with it.
When i was almost finished, Painter crashed, but i saved it 2 min earlier.
So i restart Painter, i try to open the document but its broken :\ :S >:{ :xpld: :frustrated:

So i re done it :tihi:
I think i like his pants and his hands best:tihi:

Hope you like it and C&C always welkom

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/man_geschilderd_klein.jpg

[D.Labruyere]

last one looks awesome!

[The_One]

Really nice stuff. I just started using painter, and I'm getting better as I go.

I do have some crits on the last one. His right sleeve seems unfinished, and it doesn't really match the quality of some of the other parts of the piece.

Also, the shadow stops abruptly when the wall starts, but it should continue onto the wall.

[Coinpurse]

hey, great progress man. I gotta say though, the last one is killer!

[Rebecca]

Whoa....I think I am scarred for life . eek.

Your painting skills are good, but If you combine this with a good sketch underneath...things will improve.

Ps. The last one is GREAT. =D

[rWDrk]

Thnx Haldor!

the One. In the final design there is a shadow on th wall. thnx for the nice words :D.

Thank you thank you !! means a lot

Rebecca thnx for the compliment. I practice a lot on paper since a couple of weaks ago! So i hop i will improve :D I know my anatomy needs a lot off work :S

Did this one very qick for to day, for DSG 1028: Fantasy: WINGED PEOPLE TEND TO THEIR WINGED BABIES IN THE NEST

I am working on a nother 1 but i wanted to do something else, to keep my mind of things :P
Its a little rough and the colors are crap. But just wanted to poste ;)

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/angel02.jpg

If anyone can give me some crits for the colors. I think the colors i use are boring :S. What can i do about that?

cheers R3M

[rWDrk]

Here is the final start page of the painter :D

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/printscreen.jpg

[rWDrk]

Did this one also for
DSG WINGED PEOPLE TEND TO THEIR WINGED BABIES IN THE NEST. So its a sketch :D
I tryed something else this time. I worked with oils for tha first time.
I know that the anatomy suckes but maybe you guys have some tips about color ore how i can make good fur ;)

C&C about anything in this thread is VERY welcome

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/vleugels05.jpg

[JeroArt]

Look'n cool man :D Busy as always haha. You just know how to keep it up, that's the only way to improve ofcourse, can't say that about me :S Hehe
Hey how's it going on the battle ;) quited, or goanna finish it soon?

Cool to see new stuff man, Soon some new worx in my sketchbook 2 :P Did some sculpting and charcoal models. Draw lessons on school are cool now! :D

NIce chick die riekuh ;)

Jero buddy thnx. Yeah tha batlle is on a waiting list now :P ... homework :S yuo know, i know you know :D

Well did this one qick in Painter (oils) sec one in oils..
This was for DSG
"WOMAN CURLED ON FLOOR HAS ELEGANT ANTLERS GROWING OUT OF HER SPINE"

hope you like.. and if ican do something better pleeeaaase tell :D
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/ANTLERS_woman_18.jpg

[JeroArt]

Yow!
Lookn cool already man, nice colors, feels warm :D
Though I think her lower body, legs etc could be a little lower (more down), now they look a bit like floating, feels wrong with the perspective. And her "kuit" (lol) could also be more elegant hehe.
Overall a great images, like the blurred stuff, makes it fotolike, and gives a nice sence of depth. Keep it up, i look forward to the finished one!
U realy should perfectionate this one, i realy like it!

Keep it up!
JerO

[rWDrk]

sort off fixed it jero :P
No i think iam not going to work it out, had enough :P
Glad you like it dude
cheers R3M

[Dutch Badass]

Man I gotta say, this stuff is awesome.
My favorite is the eskimo dude thingy :teeth:

Ga zo door zou ik zeggen :yayca:

[Manimalle]

Wow, many Dutch people together... hup holland :P
mooi werk rWDrk, what are you studying? love the work with painter, I have to get my hands on that program again...
Maybe the shadows on your website design could have a bit more "decay"/"gradient", but I'm not entirely sure... I'll admit its just too hard to find stuff to crit you on :)

[Sybo]

rwdrk, you are really improving already since you started this sketchbook. I really enjoyed the eskimo character and also the last one with the antlers extruduing from her spine has, as JeroArt said, a real photographic kind of depth or style.

Anyways, keep it up!

[rWDrk]

Damn so many Dutch people whahaha. How do you find me haha... i cant find any dutch people. Well ill remember you guys.

Manimalle: I study at GLA
(Grafisch Lyceum Amsterdam) (nu MA *media Academie* geloof ikhaha)
Its my last year, finally :D

Eveyone thnx for your reply's !!!!:P

Here is something i made today/night, 4 in tha morning. Damn if i start i never stop but i need some sleep now :android:
This a my first creature in painter. If i can improve it ore putt something else in it, tell me please :yayca:

This is it
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/creature07-1.jpg

little close up
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d122/Remcowierenga/Painter/creature07-2.jpg

[ogar555]

Not fair! Improving so much in such short a while!
This last creature: Amazing colors!
Some of the things to fix on the Dsg with antlerspine is the hair, it could be spread out in a more dramatic way, and the top of the antlers could use a little rework. Except for that... It's awesome! Really well done! Looks friggin realistic! Meaning, it's completely believable in my eyes.
And the painter you are going to use for your website is kickass! So keep it up! :)

[rWDrk]

Haha thnx for tha compliments dude.
This idea came from and sort of for DSG 1034 but ill not poste it, its way of topic

cheers R3M

[Isobel]

Hi ya!

I Like your art it looks damn good, and as soon as I have a tablet I will start drawing on the computer too, good luck with it!

[mbetteker]

awesome stuff here. I definitely see improvement from the first until now. I would really liek to see some of ur sketching if u happen to have it in another thread. Keep up the PAINTERing!

[rWDrk]

I have some sketches but not online.
Iam planning to quit for a while on tha computer and really study my anatomie, all with pencils. And then open a nother "pencil" sketchbook for all my study's. I think i do this in tha summer :P. Only my scanner is broken :S
Ore just go and do some sh#t on tha comp and do some with pencil.

cheers R3M

[JeroArt]

Quit on computer?? dude! its going so well, especialy lately, keep it up, that last ones freakin dope man haha. Luv how u renderd em, head reminds me of that lord of the rings giant haha. Well done. the folds n shades are clean, but the mud may be a bit too clean ;) could make him a little more dirtier. And if i were u i should remove the typography in the back, can't even realy read it to be honest hehe. Would also be nice to fix something so it's getting bigger, a little human or something next to him? Now u don't realy get it's size u know.

Keep it up, n keep studying it's going good, so why should u suddenly going traditional again ;)

Speak u soon

[Rickert]

Speak u soon

seconded this (die Jer0-gast heeft zo gelijk-lol)l;

You should definitely go all traditional again(acrylic, oils-I know you'd like it, and the old school pencils to study your anatomy -although you doing great already. What I wanted to say is, buddy, keep PS/Paintering too, well at least a DSG sketch once in a while. Stay in the flow. Takeme for example (haha): I most of the time paint digital, try to make a sketch a day (digital or traditional) and sometimes work (or start a new)on a acrylic painting (this weekend start to making a dope(hopefully) oil self portrait (BIg canvas)...Anyway try to keep doing it both but also take your skecthbook always with you doesn't matter were you go (the pub, the park, going to school). You already know this right? True, but just a reminder (ouwe gek)..:P

About one of your latest pieces (the fish-dragon?). This is definitly a sign of hugh improvement. I personally think it's your best piece ever along with the paintguy (wich you spend-I thought- a hell of a more time on, so I go with the creature :needle: )...*hands down*

I don't have anything to crit, I shall try to stare a little more at it. One thing that keeps popping in my mind whan I see it is the 'shing-top-of-the-tail' in comparisment to the rest of his body's shining particals (the yellow/orange highlightings on his body)...the top of the tail gives a nice warm glow in the darkness(reflects in the air and on his body) while the rest of the glowing elsewhere doesn't REALLY glow on the skin wich I think should do (giving the very high contrast in the darkness)... <--maybe something to check out...

Nothing left to say; gotta draw myself now. Your Rockin'!!!:blahblah:

[WiseJ]

Wow this is an inspiring thread you've made alot of improvement
I think my fav one was the painter with the red buckets of paint at first I thought it was a photo when I glanced at it

Nice work keep it up

[Zulle]

yes big progress so far :)
at a glance some of em got that breeze of photorealism
the face with the mug and the painter .. i also like the children - well done faces ... yeah big progress just keep at it!

[Elnady]

Hey man
Nice sketches u are doing pretty good stuff
Keep it up :)

[guilefine]

Thats a very cool start page i wouldn't want to click any other way. You definitely have a vivid imagination, that girl lying down with the antlers coming out of her back is beautiful. Id say some of your work becomes flat like the bats eyes, thats all i can say because it is all really good. Id like to see what s next keep drawing yeah work on drawing you can never do enough of that. Just don't worry so much about improving because if your practicing every day your improving every day, its when you stop is what keeps you from learning. Sometimes you get burnt out alittle so don't force yourself to do what you don't want to do

[rWDrk]

Oke here is a new one. Did it today. I thought the deadline was today :S
So maybe its finished matbe its not.

C.O.W. - #043: The Most Useless Creature
http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/254/useless2pu.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
Augurkie mama is one of the most useless creatures that exists.
The only thing that Augurkie mama's do is sit, sit and sit. They just look around untill they die.
When a Augurkie mama is at the end of her live, they will produce a new Augurkie mama.
The baby has grown in to the red behind. When it gets older it will move to the belly and waits untill the mother die's. The new Augurkie mama will exit true the belly button of the mother. Then he sits and wait untill he/she can produce the next generation.


cheeers R3M hope you like it

Firass (pajaro ignis colossus rectum) is a bird like creature, scientist resently discoverd that this creature is the immediate decented of the legendary Phoenix. Know by his rivals for his fierce and most deadly weapon.....his ass.

The Firasses are banned by the local inhabitants to the mountains because of there tendensie to burn everything that is in there immediate surrounding. They are not aggresive creatures but they have almost no control over there gasses that are highly flammable, the fact that they only are interrested in a plant called the Chillyplant ( plantus verius hottus) does not help. This creature hasn't a long life perspective because the continusly burn infections make him very weak against bacterias.
