[Tyranx]

Nice stuff, got anything newer?

[Smitherines]

I really like the first drawing you posted,really nice.

[Fl3wk]

Post some new stuff! I like to see someones ability that is !NOW! and not in the past as you could have improved tons more by now. Good stuff even though its from the past.

[evildisco]

Solid work, last one is insanely gorgeous.
I pitch in with the choir, anything newer?

[Kan Muftić]

Hi guys,

Now there's more to come but i think it's enough for the moment.

Feedback is most welcome,

[Fl3wk]

I dunno about your enviroments (lack in atmosphere maybe), but your character designs are strong, especially the cyber guy with the cain.

I did a project at college this year, only a small one, that was about primates. What I was doing was just sketching from photos, good excercise to get familiar with the animal kingdom. Hard to do colour studies of them because they lack in colours really (apes), so i think the images here are done really well.

If you didnt use photo reference as a basic guideline then you should, it really helps, helps me anyway.

[Tigermilk]

I think the environments are awesome, actually there's alot of atmosphere in them I think.

the first two drawings are really great too.

[Kan Muftić]

[Fl3wk]

I wonder who inspired who, the Halo Artists, or the Artists for Blade 2.

As for the enviroments, I guess I just like things more solid and vibrant. Maybe just a personal tase where we clash :P

[Kan Muftić]

Hi Fl3wk,

What do you mean with inspiration, i didn't really understand it? Sorry, i'm just not so advanced english-speaking person.. I don't get the connection between Halo and Blade...
Nevertheless, i'm a very sick fan of Halo and had this revolutionary idea: "HALO, THE COMIC"! Being so proud of myself for having such an incredible concept, i found that comic has already being done by some of the greatest masters like Moebius & Co:teeth:
So now i'm pissed. First of all: someone already did it, and secondly: someone much better then me did it.
Sh*t.

[Kan Muftić]

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/elite.jpg

[Fl3wk]

Well just in case your dont know:

Blade 2 is a film where an African/American vampire can walk in the day. He tries to protect humans from vampires. Well, on Blade 2 his foes are...zombie like, they are like an advanced vampire race that were created by the current vampires. Well these advanced vampires look 'a lot' like this dude you are showing, just in the mouth region though.

Crappy short description, but busy doing studies ^^

i like the last one, its a very 'clean' study.

[Kan Muftić]

LOL, the best film description EVER!
And, thanks for the compliment.

Cheers,

[Artguy]

I really like what you've got going on in "Cruiser" and "Scout". The sort of monotone color and the extreme shadowed foreground element. Very effective. Excuse me if I copy that idea in some future sketch!

Great stuff all over! Give us more!

[Kan Muftić]

dude!! awesome stuff!!!! i like the enviros alot, and your warriors are really cool too... keep posting.

[Capt. Sklar]

Wonderful. Your older work is ridiculous and amazing. And I like where your newer work is going. Your characters are really impressive, I'm really intrigued by the boxer-face one. I like the way you obscure things with shadow, very nice.

-Justin.

[Kan Muftić]

Thanks folks, i'm practicing a lot these days...
Best regards,

[wookiedabo]

that 15 min quickie is awesome, but i really like the older work you posted a while back. picture you posted in no. 2 post, looks a lot like the work of conor harrington, although i think yours may well predate his. check him out, ya might like some of it. http://www.conorharrington.com/. anyway, was the first thing i noticed. solid stuff.

[MrBobMarley]

Your technical ability is very impressive. I love the work so far. Would love to see more

in some of them that work well. I'm curious to know where you want to go with everything! You def. know your way
around the mediums:)
Fantastic stuff, I hope to see more soon!

[Kan Muftić]

Thank you very much, sir.

studies for the creature that i built up from the skeleton to the muscles:

[Slaving_maniac]

That creature concept you have going here is very well done, tho id like to see the notes you made. Great work, ill def have to watch this thread.

[Listing]

Good work. I enjoy the first few drawings in the thread, especially.

[Kan Muftić]

Slaving_maniac: Hi & thanks. That is my very first concept design ever, done in the school many years ago. I might get beck to that subject one day again..

Listing: thanks, but the first ones are actually full studies rather then sketches. I have a really hard time learning to draw and especially to paint out of my head because, as you can see in the first examples of my sketchbook, i was trained to repeat the reality and not to design from the blank page. But thanks to this community, i feel comfortable with that more and more every day..

Cheers,

[Kan Muftić]

Sagh-Bendah port.

[magicgoo]

Stopped in here because of your post in my painting thread. You've really got a great eye for lighting and dynamic action-filled poses. Love your work and color choices. Those older pencils are great, too! I honestly have no critiques! You rock! :D

[viramz]

Amazing stuff you got there chupacabra.
Post more of your studies will ya

[ElDavisimo]

Wow! Your work kicks A$$!

[Kan Muftić]

Thanks folks, i really appreciate it.

Best,

[Kan Muftić]

Just going wild with my brushes in the PS.
Cheers,

[retmia]

Hey, your last illustration is amazing, it'd deserve to be some more refined, but it's already gorgeous, I love the light, the geometry, the dinamics, the composition, it's a great work we have here, keep-on!

[Meatsworthy]

Drawings throughout this book are simply awesome. Nice to see some brush play too, that 3 prong ship might make for a pretty cool concept, folding when it lands :).

The space port reminds me of martiniere's ringworld painting (http://www.martiniere.com/imagepages/ringworld.htm). Perhaps the depth and scale could be pushed by bringing the hood into view more.

Great work all round!

[Kan Muftić]

retmia: Thank you very much. It's a bunch of messy paint, as i was aiming to loose control and let "things happen":)

Meatsworthy: Hey, thanks for dropping by. I think, that ship will be reconcidered when i need one. And i simply LOVE that ringworld stuff..

[Kan Muftić]

And here some recent sketches.

Cheers,

Khan

[Kan Muftić]

I painted this one out. Check it out in the Critique dept. later.

[Kan Muftić]

Just a wrap from my SB.

[Kan Muftić]

I just realised how i suck in the figure drawing without any refs.
So i punished myself with a training.
Here is it.

Here another ripp-off:

[Kan Muftić]

Lesson on holding the weapon. Will need more practice on that.
Cheers,

[Beelow]

Nice sketches dude. Keep them coming mate! I have always been watching your progress dude! Keep posting! XD

[armando]

I've never seen anyone's skill level jump around so much, God damn. You've got like these five star sketches, then every now and then stuff like this http://conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=24587&stc=1&d=1158569880, and http://conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=18554&stc=1&d=1157224516. Then you've got something with good rhythm http://conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=17377&stc=1&d=1156958191, then turn around and draw http://conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=25593&stc=1&d=1158766302 like you'd never heard of it. You can kick ass when you want to, but I don't know, maybe those were just throw away sketches.

[Kan Muftić]

Beelow: Hi there! Thanks for dropping by. I had a great time on the "Journey" contest with you and the other guys.

armando: Hi and thanks. Yeah, i'm a very moody boy. And those ARE really very, very shity sketches. But unlike many others, i like to show my junk too. Because, we all make bad drawings and not all of them are a full success, right? IMO, It belongs to development process.
I'd like to see the others do that too.

Cheers,

[Kan Muftić]

Is there greater paint then to get stuck because of a hand?
No!
So, i'm giving myself a lesson on hand after many years.
If i really want to understand a form, i always use geometric shapes like those here.

Cheers,

Khan

[Spats]

VERY cool stuff mate, keep it coming.

Looking forward to seeing more.

[armando]

I respect you for showing your shit sketches along with the masterful ones. It would be nice to see more peoples flubs, but as long as the majority shown is still their successful ones. I went ahead and gave you 4 stars, more like 4.49 though.

[Kan Muftić]

I am very greatfull!

Here, a nude study. Still on this geometrical track.
Cheers,
Khan

[Kan Muftić]

Characters... Practicing the faces.

[Kan Muftić]

Robot. Started a concept but never finished it.

[Kan Muftić]

Another nude...

Study on torso.

[Beonarri]

Your stuff is awesome Chupacabra. It's always funny to see artist be self deprecating in a sketchbook.

"No! Bad drawing! Bad drawing!" *smack with rolled up newspaper*

I also looked through your site. It's nice, but I won't have the music on by default. Music on websites is really annoying. Especially if you're someone like me who has his speakers up to blast metal music.

Keep up the good work!

[Kan Muftić]

Beonarri: Thanks for dropping by; will keep that in mind.
Here's today's study on foot.
Best regards,
Khan

[Alexandr Pascenko]

the mysterious goblinshark wants to comment on the legendary chupacabras thread:

good you have started to practice anatomy and form as i can see. on post 90 i can honestly help u with saying , never! draw the faces so little like on this one draw them big enough to put all the flowing lines in it, to find rythmn in it much better, that it would help.
the composition of your eviourments is good, they got potential just work more on the mood in there and try to make those space ships a bit more dynamic, like i can see "yeah they´re flying fast, !" so put more action in it and work more with effects , just try it:)

[Kan Muftić]

GOBLINSHARK: Thanks for dropping by!

Here another hand-studies.

Cheers,

Khan

[bradley]

i enjoyed browsing your book very much, environment on post 71 impressed me alot, i like your blocky style of drawing

[maxetormer]

One more cool place to get inspiration, :D see ya later!

[Beonarri]

Great to see practice on hands and feet.
Hands especially, because I think they're one of the keys to showing emotion in art.

Good job!

[nineself]

Nice Hogarth studies and really good stylised gestures. The legs look a little blocky and stiff but thats nothing that cant be solved with Hogarth. His diagrams of legs in Dynamic Anatomy really helped me with their shape and dynamics.
Keep going, man!

[Kan Muftić]

bradley: Thanks, mate. the #71 was really about going crazy with the brushes and then trying to figure out something with that mess.

maxetormer: I'm happy to hear that.

Beonarri: Hi! Hands are really a pain. I studied anatomy in the school ten years ago but have to repeat all that now. 'Cause i never had to deal with drawing out of my head before; now i started doing concept design. But you know that already, right?..

nineself: Hi there! Yes, Hogarth is a great help. But when i'm doing studies on him, i make it pretty difficult: the goal is to draw everything mirrored. Meaning, if i'm looking at the left hand, i draw right hand. That way, i really get to understand the shape and the logic behind the anatomy.

So here's something completely without any ref, just trying to remember stuff from the book and to make up stuff.
And btw, tomorrow i'm going to the zoo and will spend the whole day doodling beautifull creatures.

Stay tuned,

Chupacabra

[Bonfire]

Really , really nice!
the landscape sketch (15 min) looks like it´s from ALien-the movie.(my opinion) nice.
and the anatomy studies are also really nice and awesome and intresting.
I´m forgotin something...oh yes, NICE!

[Kan Muftić]

Bonfire: Hey thanks! You're right it looks like Alien. I guess that's something i carry with me. I went to same school as H.R. Giger did (creator of Alien) and was extremely inspired by him during the studies.

And here's the result of my visit to zoo. So tough. Haven't done this for years. Just a few moments to catch proportions, drawing mostly while standing, surrounded by screaming kids, letting anyone stare at my sketches.
And those creatures can move, i can tell.
Try drawing a swiming fish and you'll know what i mean:)

Cheers,

Khan

[Beonarri]

However fun it is to draw gnarly and rough hands with bones poppin' out all over and they look like they are ready to totally rip apart whatever they touch, it's rarely the case where hands actually look like that. Especially with women. They have very soft and delicate fingers.

I got berated by a teacher for make a girl with he hand clenched in a fist, kinda edgey, like I would draw with a guy.

I'm going somewhere with this.

Draw some smooth and delicate hands for practice...unless you've drawn some already and I just forgot your previous posts. If so disregard everything I just said.

Keep up the neat sketches!

[Kan Muftić]

Beonarri: Hi! I make it look like this for purpose. That way i understand the shape much better.

Here some studies on Rubins.

Cheers,

[embee]

Hey! I cant really say anything bout the anatomy-studies, but i gotta say that holding a weapon is really great and that the zoo-page really rocks! everyhings alive. great job

[rmore]

Really neat stuff, I particuarly like work in pencil. It's just one of these sketchbooks you take your time to look right through from start to finish. Keep up the good work!

[Beonarri]

I understand, I'm just pointing out that girl's hands aren't like that, unless they are older...or witches. Then they can have gangly hands...and hooked noses.

The shoulders on the anatomy look off. It's a smoother curve betwee 1 and 2. There isn't a dimple there.

I had to break out my Peck book to see that.

[blanquish]

firstly, thanks for dropping by my sketchbook, means a lot to see a kickass artist like yourself looking at my stuff!

I saw your stuff in the imagefx magazine, very cool. Congratulations for the achievement.

the zoo drawings are very good may i add, considering the conditions.
Keep up the anatomy, and do some more paints, they are great!

[Kresh]

http://www.conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=18551&stc=1&d=1157224406
I love this! Reminds me of all thos 80's animated movies that came out

[Fellah.]

Cool stuff, dude - really nice to see all the studies too!

[foofoo]

hi there......the last of couple paintings are very obviously Sparth inspired...i'm a big fan of Sparth's work too. Btw...cool stuffs...some inconsistencies here and there...but well..i know u wil keep working on it :D. cheers

[Kan Muftić]

Hi!
Thanks everyone for dropping a comment. I'm really grateful for that.
Here, something that has been rejected for a video game.

Best regards,

Khan

[Beonarri]

That guy is cool as a basic tough-tribal guy. He looks a little static and a little generic. But I think that is what you were going for, right?

Keep it up!

[embee]

i dont like that last ones static appearance, but i realy like the concept itself... maybe you should develop a finished pieced from this one.

[Kan Muftić]

I portrayed a good friend of mine to use him as a character for a horror survival game. I didn't quite copy what i saw to make him look mean and badass.

Cheers,

[blacky]

Really liked the oil picture (one of the first of the pics you posted), enviros, boxer dude and last update.
Great scills unballanced

[Beonarri]

That's a nice portrait. For a survival horror theme you need zombies. Lots of zombies! Or one uber-zombie-thingy, in a trenchcoat. Some dried blood spats on his shirt, too.

Good work, keep 'em coming!

[Kan Muftić]

blacky: thanks. looks unbalanced 'cause i post all of my crap in here:)

Beonarri: Thanks! Here they are (although already posted in another section):

[Beonarri]

Okay, you shut me up for a while. XD

[Spats]

Your knowledge of anatomy keeps impressing me. The last piece is strong.

I wish I had the patience to do studies ;D Anyway, keep it up!

[Vulgar`]

Aye, chup.

Those monkey designs and the undead pitbul are all sensational. I see that you also included a few science fiction futurustic landscapes that hint at your talents in that category of art. I would advice you to continue to draw nature - animals, creatures, orangatang lipstick. You're great at it. The attraction to a calmer selection of colors can leave the smoke diffused - only for a short amount of time. The path of the tornado continues.

Sorry for the mistake in COW.

Keep doing you

[Beonarri]

Hey there, hi there, ho there.

Just swinging by to Spam a message to yous!

Happy Holidays!

See ya later!

[BANCK]

great studies!

i can see that you are doing progress..

cheers

[stine]

wow, great sketchbook! love the variety of topics and materials. the oil painting from your college time is impressive, but i think i like your drawings most - lovely clean, still very dynamic look. and i envy your hogarth studies - they look sooooo much better than mine. reminds me to go back and study him again. :) thanks for the inspiration boost! cheers,

stine

[designboot]

hey dude! your last artwork is great! I like the motion

[Kan Muftić]

Hi folks and big thanks for kind words.

Here are some of the samples of a recent workshop that i gave for a film school (Matte Painting fundamentals):

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/matte_excercise_02.jpg

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/matte_excercise_01.jpg

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/matte_excercise_03.jpg

It was about understanding and respecting the given footage and extending shots based on the realistic photography.

And unfortunately, i didn't want to use any custom brushes. Basically two layers: original shot and the paintover, that's it.

Keep inspiring me guys.

Best,


Best regards,

Khan

[marioucci]

Ohh man.

Those last few manipulations are especially good.
hats off

I would go for the vanguard/offbeat style rather than the every day concept work.. I see you are doing both most of the time... deciding??

cheers man

Mario

[Kan Muftić]

marioucci: Hi and thanks. Well, i kind of try doing both avoiding my head to explode. Both are very challenging...

So, here's the beginning of my despair. I tried to make some sort of a super-muscled-badass thing and made this:

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/diverse19.jpg

CRAP! Not nearly the thing i had in my mind.

[Kan Muftić]

Ok.



I S.U.C.K.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can You believe that i actually went to art school for about five fucking years?!
Anatomy seems to be a never-ending issue for me.

Whining around won't help, so back to basics again. Opened the books, draw the stupid arms and legs.

Here is the embarrassing result:

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/diverse17.jpg

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/diverse18.jpg

Shit.

[Envisor]

Hey Chupacabra, great pencil work you do. Lovin your comic characters. Cant wait for more.

My Sketchbook- C&C very welcome
http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=85772

[Beonarri]

Anatomy is a never ending issue for almost everyone. It's like, you get down one thing and you thing you're gold, but another thing is pointed out to you. Usually, it's not pointed out to you until some months of you making the mistake.

The matte paintings are pretty awesome, and that's not a word I throw around often.

Great work, keep it up!

[Kan Muftić]

Envisor: Thanks for cheering up. Cool SB, btw

Beonarri: Word bro...

[Kan Muftić]

Totaly off the subject. I'm totally passionate about the skiing. We developed a style that we call "snowsliding", which is basically whiping the slopes with your ass. Here's a pic from one of my ass-slidings:

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/kan_slide.jpg

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/kan_slide2.jpg

Shameless self-wanking, right?

No serious, in case some of you guys happens to come to Switzerland at some point, feel free to join me in the beautifull Alpine slopes.

Let me know.

Cheers,

[Kan Muftić]

Some of the images i made for the second workshop i gave in a film school.
I've given full credits to Maestro Sparth and Vyle for bringing the techniques of speedpainting to us here.

Hope You like it,

[Kan Muftić]

BTW, go and buy the new "Spectrum" - book. It's wonderfull.
Peace,

[Beonarri]

ooooo!

Very neat. With the Photo edits, you sampled colors from the pictures, correct? Then just painted. Did you use anything like Photo Filters or a Grain Filter...you know, color correction stuff, or was it just paint?

Also, did you use some of your own photos or just some you found somewhere.

Very nice.
*coughstarscough*

[Envisor]

Man these ships scare the hell out of me. Especially the one the mechanical arms and crows flying around the top.

[AztcFireFlower]

Hey Chupacabra, You have a really nice SB going here. I am really enjoying your environment pieces. The thumbnails in post #45 help me to see how to simplify my enviros. Thanks for posting those. Yep. I totally understand the frustration with knowing just under enough anatomy. Can get by, but to really design and create shapes with realistic but stylized forms, need to understand anatomy like a mechanic knows a car. Admire that you set your site and than run for it. Great studies and I'm sure great results when you put it all together.
Keep posting more good stuff.

[Kan Muftić]

Beonarri: Hi and thanks. No, i din't use anything actually. I was sitting at the computer, showing these techniques to students. In case you mean those b&w images...

Envisor: Well, that's a big compliment. Thanks!

AztcFireFlower: Many thanks, mate. I'm trying hard...

Here's one of the recent characters i created for my "Wild West 2'500 A.D." thread. If you'd like to see the rest of the gang, please go HERE (http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?p=1189727#post1189727).

Thanks for feedback,

[cgoz]

you got it all buddy, characters, envis, lighting, composition, just everything.especially post 129 rocks.

[thiagocosta]

Hey man,
the oil on canvas in the first page is amazing, impressive technique.

[Beonarri]

I meant the ones up higher, with the buildings. The photomanipulation stuff. Any special treatments or just painting over them?

*EDIT*
I could tell the B/W ones where just paint.

[Kan Muftić]

cgoz: Many, many thanks. I'm trying to do it all since i get bored by doing just one discipline.

thiagocosta: Thanks, i wish i had more space to paint with oils again.

Beonarri: Sorry, got you wrong. Here's what i basically had as the material to work with and next to it is what i made out of it.

Thanks folks!

[Delmar]

MAn!!! The last character and the enviros are dope ass.:x
Very inspiring, keep it up!

[Helcom]

Wow your work is stunning.

I love your animals sketches and that "slaugthered-zombie dog" rules!!!

[Beonarri]

Ah, gotcha. I'm only grinding this a bit, because I was thinking of doing a couple myself.

Actually the third one was the only confusing one to me in regards to process.

Thanks for sharing!

Hello.
Great stuff here, love the speedpaintings and matte paintings, but all artwork is cool.

[Envisor]

These last digitals are really cool. Wondering if you could post some of the steps you take when creating a new enviro. Do you use ref from photos and from life, if so, its something that i need to start to do also. Got to say my new favorite pencil from you has to be post 142. Awesome character design and great rendering.

[kischi]

Great sketchbook you got here dude! The firts post on this page #121 has a very good mood. And after your lecture of mattepainting, I'm a little less scared to this matter :)

[JAIR428]

not too bad here

with the matte paintings try to duplicate the textures on a luminosity layer to give youre creations a better more consistant feel to them...

-keep it goin!

[poise]

Hey Congrats Chupacabra for getting a job at Weta workshop!!
Your Sketchbook is great, your enviroments are lovely. :)
Again Congrats and go have fun. :)

it's great!

[Kan Muftić]

Hi there,

Delmar: Thanks a lot!

Helcom: Thanks! I also liked him, but it doesn't seem to be anyones darling. And it was such a hard job to do, believe me...

Beonarri: You're welcome!

Jorge Gecov: Thanks! But I'm recently trying to stay away from the custom brushes though.. Makes not much sense for a real job. Well, maybe sometimes...

Envisor: Thank you, sir. Yeah, i do have a look at photos and movies a lot. That's why i just told Jorge Gecov that i'm not really into this crazy custom brush thing anymore. Mostly, it's like client telling me exactly what they want: time of the day, vegetation, geographic situation, camera position, etc.
So i don't have too much freedom to go crazy and wait for "Happy Accidents" to happen.
Maybe other people have that freedom. Maybe they also like working that way. But i prefer being in exact control of what i'm painting.
I'll be posting some steps very soon, so maybe that'll help.
Basically, it's working the way you like it. Not only the way we see it on some DVD's even if they're quite helpfull (i made that mistake myself).

kischi: Thanks a lot. Yeah, i kind a dig that dude too.. And concerning MP, it's a wonderfull thing to do - takes very long to finish but i like getting hypnotized by the image. Go for it and let me know, i'd love to support you with some friendly advices.

JAIR428: Thanks! What you see here are just fundamentals, not the finished mattes. After i finish the concept, i add photographic elements over the painting the way you mentioned.

poise: Thanks Tiffany, but that's nothing for sure yet. I'm just going there to introduce myself.
God help me there!

designboot: Hey buddy! Thanks a lot. Oh, i'm so sorry for not having time to work on your fantastic project. But who knows? You have some great ideas there and i'm sure there will be some serious echoes about it.

Thank you all guys and girls for supporting my humble design skills, i can't stress enough how much that motivates me to keep on the track.

Best regards,

[Kan Muftić]

I usually don't present my illustrations on ca.org but i'd like to share some of it in the future. Because they're also made with all my heart and require just as much love and care as any concept- or matte painting.
This is a cover for a band that plays balkanian gipsy music combined with modern electronica. Loving them so much, i decided to make the whole package for their new CD. Here it is.

Cheers,

Khan

[Chris Noeth]

Hey Khan,

it's nice to look at your different artworks. I will come by more often ;)

Best wishes,

You've got an amazing sketchbook man - I usually go through and pick a few favorites, but there are far too many of em - seriously!
Though the one at the very top of this page (guy with scythe going after the mutant-thing) is particularly nice imo...

I will be checking up on this one.

This is why I love you dude. Keepin everyone on there toes. Good explantaion on robot design. Helpful, helpful, helpful. And the robot for the workshop is really cool with the sick looking body attached to it. Kinda like a cyborg, right, or just a robot with the skin pulled over it. But that would rot tho. Now thats sick dude. Lol. Oh yeah, I started a new SB, wondered if you would stop by and crit some of my works, not very many and wouldnt take too much of your time, but only if your up to it. If so its in my sig. Really great and inspiring pieces in here. Cant wait till Im at a level of this magnitude.

[PeGGO]

Wow man.. your work.. it's really good.. I like your deformation schemes and creation skills.. and now I'm listen some of your tracks.. it's a good and relaxing music.. special for work..!! and well man.. I don't know much about all that.. only i know that it's so good..!!

lirica: It was the war that brought two of us together but i'm very grateful for all we've been through. Much love, Kan.

Here's some off-the-subject illustration i did a while a go. I planned making a short in the "Miami Vice" and Chuck Norris style. Maybe i'll do it one day.
This is the poster / teaser i made for it:

love the variety in your work ,
the linework is very much different from teh digis , btu they are all so well done.

last piece reminds me of the Grand Theft Auto art. Only the women in th game are little more volumpsous.

Hey dude!

A good few years ago when I first decided I wanted to become a concept artist, I found your website while fumbling around looking for where to begin my path. I thought then, "I want to be as good as this guy man". I'm still working on it. Glad to be on the same forums as you man, keep inspiring.

[Kan Muftić]

YO!

WhaSap!

bhanu: Thanks, i use different mediums for different tasks.

Envisor: You probably won't believe me but i made this BEFORE that game was published. I was soooo inspired by the bad-ass 80's action films like "American Ninja" and all those Chuck Norris crap that i decided to start my own project called "Khan & Ninjas of South Paraguay". This is going to be a B-movie one day, i hope.

ronaldK: I'm touched. Thank you. No, i don't speak spanish. Chupacabra is something i really dig. I even made a spoof documetary about this mythical creature. You can watch it on my homepage (http://www.streamatica.ch/) under "Videos" and it'c called "Creature Quest". My friend Graham plays the main character and i'm playing his local guide. We were so drunk there that i got banished from the Zoo in Zurich and am not allow to go there ever again. Hehehe, fuck'em, i'll go anyway and do some more guerilla films...

MattGamer: Hahaha, dude you rule!

deltron05: Man, your words make me want to marry you:) Thanks a world.

camou: FABIAN!!!! Teaching you and your friends in the school was a pure pleasure - and you mister are a talent of its own. Gruess!

Noukah: Finally someone to praise me for that damn pooch! I almost killed myself on that. Thank you so much.

matejkovacic: Dudowsky! Great meeting you. Let's stay in touch here.

ATAnderson: Oh dear. Is there a better compliment? No. There isn't. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Sorry for taking so much time for responding. I've been faced with some wonderfull things coming my way: a game, music video and a movie project.
And, my painting video is published in the current issue of ImagineFX (http://www.imaginefx.com/). I made it without any of those fancy talkings, just down-to-earth walktrough, explaining my own personal struggles and problems by creating a creature / character. It's from a fellow-designer for design-fellows. Here a screenshot:

[Wasker]

http://www.streamatica.ch/sketchbook/diverse19.jpg

Why are you saying you got anatomy issues? :) I find them close to perfect.

The speedpaintings a la Sparth and Vyle are pretty neat too, but i'd like to see some color on those.

Yes, great stuff indeed. Cant wait for more dude.

[Kan Muftić]

Hey folks,

Thanks for kind words. I thought, i'd post some old stuff here again.
I was at my parents place and thought that some of the paintings that hang in their appartment were made with huge ammount of effort. All trad.
The nude was a study i did in '97. and the lion was made in '99.
Size of the nude is about 1 meter high (european measures) the lion a bit smaller.

Hope You like it,

This here is a painting I did for a contest:

[Envisor]

Nice oldies. The lion looks great, not finished tho. Nice to have you back.

[Beonarri]

Paintball, the grownd up version of playing war in the backyard.

Or, if you want a darker, more psychological approach. It's like saying, "I want to hunt down people and shoot them, but I don't want the hassle of a trial."

Er...good painting, nice motion, nice clothing, gun could use some work though. And I think the rock in the middle ground is a bit too detailed considering how much detail is in the person. I think toning back the texture would fix that.

BIG THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope, I'll be posting often enough in here. But if I don't, have in mind that I'm very gratefull for all the crits and comments given in this little sketchbook of mine.

I'm pretty new to CA and You are such an inspiration! Your enivronments and industrial design are beautiful! The color and line work in your paintings are unique themselves and open my mind to a new place. I've always been afraid to experiment like that. Is there a name to the technique? Thanks so much! :)

[Chermilla]

Hey,

So how are you finding the new job in Brighton? Brighton's an awsome area! Buzzing! :)

Brighton! I saw Sugar Rush and they lived in brighton :P

[Kan Muftić]

Good morning,

Thanks for such a feedback, guys. That's a great starter into the week.

bradley: Hi! Well, it's much better than I expected to be. At least for now, I know I'll be longing for my sunny swiss mountains in few months:)

Helcom: Thanks, good to hear that. I can't tell how much animals I drew as a kid and the passion is still there. These days it's more characters and machines but I plan to get back to them again soon.

Dabaers: And you just earned a drink from me, sir.

crimson13: Hi and welcome to the best school of the planet: CA.org. The technique is called Draw-Fu. Just kidding, I draw so much and I get better with each attempt. That's how things work, I guess. Thanks for your kind words.

Chermilla: Hi there! Brighton is Nutterton! Full of crazy people, beer monsters, cheap harbor food and hot girls. Me likes! The job itself is a dream come true.
Really. You around here too?

Clodioz: Yeah, it's a crazy place. I still fight to accept that fact, mate:)

[Kan Muftić]

Ok, so this is what happened due to lack of my beloved XBox, without bed, without anything a geek like me needs to survive. The reason for missing those props is that I just moved in a new (hahaha, new... the oldest phuckin flat in Brighton, I think) flat and was sleeping on the floor.
So, instead of trashing myself with beer, I decided to stay home and draw.
Here's the result.
Cheer fellows!

ChaoticKnight; Thanks, means lot to me.
