Well, I shall try to update often, so be sure to check it out from time to time... Thanks for stoppin by!!:D

[Konstruktion]

Ye freakin' arsehole! It's so good! Love the sketches, Gunnar/Herr Kvick/Mats/Miles/McWilmur/McClifford sure looks nice, especially his hand! Not to mention Konrad/Viktor/Magnus! Dig that second one, you've got to finish it! And that dude flying, he's kinda cool. I like the background, the dude in the front, the colors on him looks a bit rough now, but I'm sure you'll fix it!

[Orifice]

Why thank you! I do like Gunnar/Herr Kvick/Mats/Miles/McWilmur/McClifford too, especially his hand. Not that sure abuut the dogg though... I sure will continue on that sketch. thanks alot for commenting.

This update took long, I shall try to be more rapid in the future. If anyone cares.

[Orifice]

Oh yes. I have a question that anyone is free to answer:
How do you link somethin and then make the link say like "My sketchbook" instead of like:
"http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=74549"?

[(c)]

alright go to posting in advanced mode and insered your link then u will see this(just without the points)

Anyway, nice stuff! Reall dig that dude listening to deathmetal! One crit though, who deosn't like ice cream?! Your monster is cool too. Damnit, I really need to draw now... and poo.:x

EDIT: How do you choose what picture is to be shown next to the thread title?

[Orifice]

Ive got COMMENTS now! WOW!

(c) Thanks alot, but I just can not get this to work! Could frustrate the hell outov a fckin llama. Really dig your name, genious.

Sarcophagus! Thanks for takin a look! I do fancy that guy too. Bob by the way. Good crit. Just the kind of tips I want, I didnt really think of that when I did it. So more crits of that kind people! Should draw now too, but who knows..

Edit-answer: I have no idea. Some pics seem to become thumbnails and some not, and it seems like the server or whatever randoms out one of the thumbnails to show next to the name o the thread. Somethin like that, dunno.

Use that, just take away the... mellanrums. The spaces that is.

AAAAAAAHHH! Yea, thanks Johan, I got itall backwards. Yes I think i got it now.

[Goodbye..fromthevoid]

I assume you want to draw like Da Vinci so you're gonna have to do some life drawing and all that.

If you don't want to draw like Da Vinci then what are your goals?

[Orifice]

I guess I wanna be as good as Da Vinci...?
And I have realised that I should do alot more studies and whatnot. Lifedrawings. Draw more in general. So I've descided that the next thing to do is to do some studies.

[born_stubborn]

u have ur way with the tablet dude! keep at it....as for Michelangelo...why not, but start working :)

[Seedling]

Orifice, what are your long-term goals with your art?

[Orifice]

Maieth, Sarcophagus Oh guuuuys... You make me blush damnit! Thanks for that.

Born StubbornWhy thanks alot, I really like this newfound medium. I think I will do quite alot of digital painting in teh future. And I will sertainly start sketchin away on them studies. I assume thats what you mean.:)

SeedlingMan I just dont know. Like my highest whish is to become a fulltime conceptartist, but it is just recently that I have had a slight thought of that that might be an option. It would be real fun to go ful out for that, but it seems a bit risky. I dont know if I have a shot or not... I think that I might have a shot to work in some way with art if I continue to develope in like some years or somethin... I dunno. I might end up at McDonalds.:) I could become one of them wheird old men with 20 pidgeons in my appartment, scareing small children!:D That would be almost as awesome

Hey sorry for teh craptastic english.

[Seedling]

Orifice, are you aware that concept art is just a subset of illustration? Look around: there are illustrations everywhere. Somebody’s got to paint ‘em. If you work up the skills to be an illustrator, you could end up doing concept art, or book covers, or illustrations for non-fiction magazine articles, or paint murals, or sell paintings through galleries. Or several of the above. Being a professional artist is risky, but if you do it right, a broad illustration education can open a whole lot of career doors.

Anyway, these sketchbooks can be particularly useful if you pick a specific goal for them, such developing one particular academic skill or another. Then folks like me can encourage you. ;-)

Cheers!

yup ...study the human anatomy in and out :) and not only

Its an entry in the C.O.W round with theme "highly explosive". Its these things developed from fish, that come in pacs over los angeles in the year 2531. Some of them Kamikaze into buildings, and then the others come and eat the debree created by the explosion. For you se, they can only eat small bits and are forced to blow the buildings up. well thats about it.

B B B Born Stubborn Yeah, I think I've just started somewhat of a new era in my drawing. Studies! I really know what you mean, and I shall try to improve. Though I can blame my crappy H2 pen and crappy scanner just a little bit on the contrast part.:) Thanks for the continous CC:s mate. Cheers!

And thank you indeed Voraz. Cheerio:D

[Orifice]

We got this project at art in school the other day. we are gonna come up with sorta a theme, or be inspired by a certain artist. And in this theme deliver 5 things. One painting one sculpture one print and two random/elective things. So I descided to choose Jon Foster as my inspiration as he is kindova favourite artist and do such cool stuff. So heres one idea to the painting... will come more since I can come up with somethin cooler.

Damnit man! You have to stop getting better all the time or guys like me wont have any chance! Anyway, awesome. Love the lightning, the shadows of the birds are awesome.Really like the overall diry kindoff look. Keep up the good work! Love that you post it from scratch to finnished.

keep posting for the love of mike!!! :P

:EDIT:
HEY wait a second that is MY dream you hear! :perv: >:{
I might end up at McDonalds.:) I could become one
of them wheird old men with 20 pidgeons in my appartment,
scareing small children!:D That would be almost as awesome.
Im the one having 20 pigdgeons not you! j/k
on a serious matter, I do belive youv got a shot,
a lot more of a shot than many other other ppl
so keep working! :D and updating!

[Orifice]

Sarcophagus - the supreme one -> I thank you deeply. I will try to keep up the good work, and you should do that yourselfe. Cheers.
Maxetormer - the one with the spoons.. -> hahah! I thought thatone was pretty stupid myself. I feel an urge to keep postin. Especially when I get these comments!
Hey I envy anyone that have more pets than toes + fingers. But do you actually work at McDonalds yes?:O and thank you very much for the kind words mister, means heaps. I will update soon. I think I'll draw right now actually. Cheerio!

[Orifice]

Just a little footwork. need to work on my feet.
http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/6982/rymdpjrwp6.jpg

This is a style I might use in my comic. might. What I most want to do is to do it tabletwize, though it will probably be b/w so ink n that stuff is probably better. The story and feel I want would be best achieved with tablet though... so I dont know. Well here it goes anyways. Its the same comic-idea as the guy in the last image, in my first post.
http://img464.imageshack.us/img464/1633/arararararar2ec9.jpg

[ArtZealot]

that last post was really nice, u'r kickin ass at those urban environments. that's one of my weaknesses. nice linework too. i cant really think of anything to crit, your stuff looks great. keep it up.

[Dreamworker]

Nice update man :) But I think that the lower legs studies in front view is to wide, other viwes are very good :)
Keep it up
ciao :P

[camilografix]

like the giant fishes. how did you get those small clickable thumbnails?

[Konstruktion]

Hahaha, BAJS! :D And Snopp as well! Awesome anyway. You should try to draw something in b/w and print it, ofcourse it wont be the same quality as getting it at Comixpress, but maybe you'll get an idea how it will look like?

[Orifice]

ArtZealot - Thanks alot! Yeah, that worked out fine. I like the closest powerline. Cheers:)

Dreamworker - thanks! And I se what you meen with those legs. I'll certainly do more, n try to improve on that. good call.

Camilografix - thank uoy! But sorry, I have no idea how to get those... I think they somehow updated the system a while ago, and you got thumbnails instead of the pics. But not anylonger, so I dont really know. They bug me frankly, the only use is that you get this thumbnail next to your sketchbook though ya dont choose which. I wouldent really have paciense enough to click through a heap of thumbnails just to se the pic. So maybe your better of without 'em anyway.

Sarcophagus - Indeed BAJS! SNOPP! Thats a good idea! I shall try it! Yeah, thanks for liking!

[Tobin]

you got some mad ideask, that lat picture looks tight

Ragathol - Thanks alot:) It'll become a space suit if I continue on it. A clownguy in a space suit...

Sarcophagus - Though you say you've learnt stuff, so it must be good nevertheless. Great that ya draw:) We should both get started on our portfolios to Grevie! I have no idea what to do;_;...

Heys Johan! I shalnt keep you from your errends, and I thank you alot for the kind words and visit in general. I had the feelin' that the elusive 2'nd-page-barrier was to be broken at any moment, nice ovya to conquer this new page, not only in this very sketchbook but in my life aswell, for me.







(btw this was written in kindova humerous way if you will)

[Konstruktion]

Thank you for making my life a bit easier to live.

Bu the way I probably wont update my SB for a... whiiile. But you really should update your more often. :)

[Orifice]

Wait now.... you aint gonna be updatin'? ;_; why not? dont ya draw much anymore? ;_; or do ya wanna train and come back with a vengence as you become better? I saw sum stuff at your house n It looked real nice! WHY WONT YOU SHARE!!!?? :$

[Halifax]

Your pieces rapidly improved through this thread. The first few paintings seemed really flat and outlined, but that quickly went away through the progression of your paintings, the painting with the giant fishlike creatures flying over that city nearly made me give birth, an excellent piece. I think you should have posted that last because nothing seemed to impressive after looking at it. I really like your work, please post more, draw more, so I can seeee!

[Orifice]

Hey thanks ALOT Halifax!! Fairly large comments like these really make my day! Cewl that ya can se the development throughout the posts. I actually LAWL'ED cuz of your near bearth experience! haha! The big question is WHAT you nearly gave birth to! I shall just have to keep pushin myself in the future so that every post is greater then the one before it... I have a good feelin about what I've got cookin right now. I have gotten some good ideas lately, n if I can pull it of nicely it'll be great. So hopefully I wont dissapoint now that I have spoken so greatly of it. Oh well... Thanks for stopping by.

[Orifice]

Dont like this that much, drawing comes slow for me right now... though I have this very cool idea in my head 'bout this vehicle that the guy in the bottom left is riding. Its hard to get on paper;_; oh well.

Though this I do like. I started to doodle a face on my sketchbook and I liked it. So I descideed to overwork it and it ended up like this.
http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/4720/1sketchbook3copywt4.jpg

I fancy this too. So maybe it aint that bad. I guess I just have to get to it more often... So anyway this is my take on the ninja character from "Metal Gear Solid" series. I find this character extremely cool and wanned to draw 'im. I think he is called "grey fox"? yes? I'm gonna color him probably in Painter.
http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/992/1sketchbook4ns4.jpg

[Konstruktion]

Man that face on your sketchbook is awesome! Dig the inking ('cause you did ink it right?!). That ninja is awesome as well, you are getting better and better drawing hands. The pose is really nice too!

Can't wait bla bla you know!

[Orifice]

thanks alot Johan, yeah I like it too:D! Though it is penciled, n so is the ninja. I fancy his pose, though ya probably have some stuff to point out anatomy-wize! I would like to know why you plan not to update in a while. Is it cuz you want to come back when your better?

[Konstruktion]

Hm, not really sure myself actually, at the time I wrote that I felt all my sketches was of no interest. You know... boring stuff. I'll try to do some more stuff off my own though rather than anatomy reference sketches all the time! And soon it's time for the selfportrait, it's ging to be fun!

yes.

One more speedy. Its an idea I got to the comic Im doin with Sarcophagus and Fredrik. Its a boss for a giant corporation. And I thought that it might be cool if the main characters fought their way into this massive building and in the end met "the boss" (thats what I'll call him) in the end. And he was a chimpanzee in a suit with a cigarr! He would be really really clever and desceteful...
http://img126.imageshack.us/img126/4358/skisstvazd2.jpg

[Konstruktion]

I think you should try not ho have so much black shadows in your selfportrait, it gets kinda flat. Other than that you know I love it! Awesome work. Your speedy is awesome! I want to see a fullshot! More! And the monkey is one tough guy, you really should do a finnished one!

I got these plastic raster thingies from my moms office the other day. They are dots on thin sticky plastic that ya can attach to paper, like in comics only this is non-computer-y done. They used it at her architect office some 10, 15 years ago... So this is a result of me trying 'em out: (It is called "The beatch sucks")

Holy fuck that is so beautiful with them two-tones! I have searched internet for tutorials to do that with the computer but I can't find any good ones (thought maybe I can have 'em in my comic). I hope you have checked out Nicolas sketchbook! His two-tones are awesome. Dig the hands on your dude!°

[Divorce]

Or, I'd like to thank you for single-handedly sparking my creativity after about a solid month of none.

[Orifice]

Sarco - Yeah, its fruhggin' great to have those, eventhough they're almost used up. My beloved mother told me that she knew this store in Malmö where they probably have these dot-sheets, so I'm gonna visit that store hopefully soon. They have alot of drawing, painting stuff and then stuff such as them raster plasters. I reckon ya could download something to make dots to photoshop. You have asked this Nicolas right? Tell me if ya find something out! Thank-o's for stoppin by:)

Paper Clip Fuckin Clock - Hey thats great! Thats like the best comment one could get, so the pleasure is all on my side heheh!

The store isnt called Dreweks is it? And "this Nicolas"??? I'm talking about Nicolas Klein! Anyways I think I'll head in to Dreweks some day and check if they got some, have heard its the best store in Sweden!

[Flaskpost]

Lovely stuff lately! Do more of those raster thingies! That one´s awesome!
I love your style dood!
I think we´re both ashley wood fans. :)

[Orifice]

Bhanu - Thanks alot mate! I fully agree with the dots, I shall do more of them!

Sarcophagus - I actually dont think they're called Dreweks. I think it was two of the same names... kinda like "Jönsson & Jönsson" or sumthing like that... Maybe they have recently changed their name? Dunno.

Flaskpost - Thanks heaps dude, more rasterthingies comin' up!
Heh, thanks, and yes indeed I guess we are both big fans.:)

Heres a little update. Sumthin I cooked up late last night. Used a little ref from my hand, otherwize none. Probably should have, the clothes look like dough. Kindove lighting n weight practise.

[Spats]

Wow, you're good.

Seriously. I mean when I first set eyes on this sb, I thought to myself 'that's some cool stuff.' Then it seems you opened a can of "skitbra" and cranked it up a notch. Crazy-ass pencils. Very distinctive style. Keep it up.

[mambug]

I like the drawings, especially the flying fish! Looks different and neat.

[TheGnoll]

Spats - Wow thanks! Really means alot man. Its real nice to hear that you like the stuff, I still feel like I have 99,9% left to learn, my composition for example is somthin thatI feel I could improve fast an alot. Hey ya really think I have my own style? 'Cuz thats exactly the kind of thing that keeps me awake at night. I feel that I just steal n stuff, that I dont have any of my own-ness in my stuff... So I'm very happy to hear ya see something stylewize distinctive. Thanks alot for the drop by mate!:)

Mambug - Thanks alot mister, nice commenting!:D

TheGnoll - Hooray, thats great to hear! I've kinda gone back to the roots for a while now, I used to do alot of pencildrawing. Then I got me tablet n used it intensly. So its real nice to hear I still "got the goods";) hahah. Its nice to have ya dropping by, I'll do thesame! seya round.

[Orifice]

A little bit o updatin'. First up are some minor sketches. May be even more nonserious then usual.... dunno if thats a good or a bad thing. But I thought "why not post 'em" I mean it IS a sketchbook. You are supposed to post things you draw. this is what I have drawn. This is what I post.

EDIT: And dont hide the monsters nipples!!

[kuroart]

nice stuffs man. the paintings are pretty much kickin ass.

[Orifice]

Sarcophagus - Yeah, thanks alot Josso! Yeah, n you're just gonna have to live with that. I dont have time to change it now, so I probably wont find it fun enough to do it later...:)
Haha, I'll have it in mind next time

Kuroart - Thanks mister!:D Kudos are always wellcome...

Hey man,
great update. the lighting is good , tight. Background is suiting the pic.Maye the lighting on the tongue could be tweakeda bit .
Take care and keep up the good work.

[Konstruktion]

All right Pidde goes texture-background! Sweet! Did you scan the stuff yourself? The only thing that dont looks really finnished is his right hand and some of the things surrounding it, the shadows on the monsters (hotties?) legs f.ex. And yeah the dark kvadrats! You know.... squares. They are cool I mean, not not-finnished.

[lloorrdd]

Nice! I like the fish-bomber-thing... Very strong concepts!

[Kliment]

lovely works! ;]

[vigostar]

Once u get your anatomy rocking properly... your going to be unstoppable... you have the patience to really render out some nice paintings... I see great success in your future

[Flaskpost]

Bra skit, broder! GO Scandinavia! :)

[Orifice]

Bhanu, adorable a-bomb of awesome - Thanks for the good commenting buddy! Yeah, the background worked out pretty well, I havn't really used textures before... I agree that the tounge need some attention. The light dont have much "realness" to it... Good point out, appreciate it. Take care man.

Sarcophagus, awkward authoritarian of awesome - Heck yes! Worked out pretty good, yes? I did not scan it, I found this guy who does awesome texture packs, "resurgere" at DeviantArt. Link to his DevArt site (http://resurgere.deviantart.com/) Ya cought me as usual. I was pretty stressed when I did this, so I might just clean that up. Good remind bud. N yes, those squares look pretty cool after all! I should take a patent on 'em or sumthin';) Someone else has probably done that before though. ;_; Very well, take it easy but take it, as my granpah always said.

Lloorrdd, academic angler of awesome - Thanks muchly mister! Fish-bomber-thingeys should be more common really. You're to kind man. Really appreciate the time taken, honored to have ya here.:)

Kliment, amorphous agrarian of awesome - Thanks a bunch, appreciate the stop by. Like a drive by only not... killing you.

Vigostar, atrocious admiral of awesome - Yeah, I gotta get my anatomy boat floating. But man oh man you are to kind. Though it's truly great to hear that man thanks for this inspiration. I really feel like crankin itall up a noch thanks to comments like this! :D Thanks for the push!

Flaskpost, aweinspireing layabout of AWESOME! - Tack min herre! Yeah, Troops of Thor - commence battle!

[Beelow]

I see that Phil Hale is a big influence of your work! I like em! Yeah I thought I posted something your sketchbook but it seem I have not yet. Man I must have been on some shyt that day. I swear I post shyt and it disappears haha! Yeah good luck with the self taught vs. art schooled thing. You may knock me out of the park dude! XD

[Orifice]

Hey spanks for the kind words Beelow! Cool that ya enjoy me stuff, I have indeed been inspired alot by Mr. Hale lately, he's such a fantastic painter. And I swear there is somewhat of a conspiracy of kinds in the making. Things dissapearing, they be stealin our comments I tells ya! This probably goes government deep... They're all in on it, its all just one big game. I guess I should shut my mouth before some suit-n-sunglassed fellow duss it for me... ;_; Anywho, good luck!:D

[Nyako]

Lol! Your artwork has a great sense of humor! It is very dynamic! I wish I had a more constructive commentary but, well, er...nope, not gonna happen!

Do post more stuff!

[Flaskpost]

Allsmäktige kroppsöppningen! Give us an update, man!

Top stuff my friend, but yes, another update please :)

Very impressive sketchbook Orifice! I saw the Phil Hale influence immediately (he's one of my favorites as well)

[Orifice]

Nyako - Well, thanks alot for trying!:D Appreciate the likeing ya know.

TaskHoste - Comin up mate.

Jake - I wont decline your command master. And thanks for likeing!:)

Oh you fucking bastard! The last page is beautiful! I love the guy who's getting hit, his lips are awesome. Also the shading and lightning. You talented asshole! Now I'm going to comment on the same piece at DeviantArt, only I will say Conceptart.org instead of DevianArt.

[Orifice]

Yay, thanks alot Jo-dawg! Your honey-dipped words hit the spot, keep 'm comin sir, KEEP 'M COMIN!

[Orifice]

Small update. Started on a conceptlike thing for a comic I'm doin with Sarcophagus plus one more guy, though I did not like where this were goin so I gave it up. Well, thought It might be a thing one might uploade in a sketchbook...

Heres a better concept for me comic! Today I scribbled some storyidéas n whatnot together, and I do like it.
So heres a little sumthin of how it may look. This is the main characters buddy:

[Konstruktion]

That is sweet man its gonna be nice to see the final comicbook. Although I think we all need to hurry up a bit, especially me! Keep up the good work

[Orifice]

Thanks alot bud, yeah, this book of ours will smack some but. And YES we need to crank it up now, I'm probably as far behind as you.

Anywho, heres some more concept. Continued a bit on the same sheet as the above.
The top right and bottom left figure is the main characters only buddy. top left is the main characters dad getting punched in the gut, n bottom right is just figuring out his looks. The guy jumping is the main character. The rest of the stuff is just poop.
http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/4742/aporcark9.jpg

[Discoskull]

I can't think of a word good enough to describe how freaking sweet this sketchbook is. Love your style - I'd love to apply ink to some of your work (since you'd be a killer anything artist, you'd definitely make a killer comic artist).
So yeah! Keept them coming...

[Orifice]

Hahah, wow man! That is absolutely too much mister, ya make me blush! I am actually planning to use a good amount of ink in the comic... Thought I'd somehow try to mix ink and digital painting. Hope I can manage it, I feal kinda like my experience n whatnot is to small. Well, I'll try! Thanks alot for the uplifting commenting man, appreciate it!:D

[Orifice]

Update. Its for the comic again, all except for the robotic arm. Saw it in the movie "smoke" n thought it looked cool...
http://img484.imageshack.us/img484/1087/awoppaxz1.jpg

There's a ton of energy in your pencil strokes, makes for some cool drawings dude. Really like the sketches...

[Orifice]

Jake - Thanks alot mister! I do like 'em too.

Strych9ine - Thanks man thanks alot, good, happy commenting!:)

Now for an update that I pretty much dislike. I kinda like the chair, but the dude looks weak. I tested out doin the shadows more blurry further away from the objects (sorry for the poop english) n in my opinion it worked out nicely. Though in general I loath it.
http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/2267/tilldevartkd4.jpg

great way of drawing chars, really nice. the robotic arm page is tight ass hell, keep us posted my man!

Great thread .subscribed.

He does, he does. He is a very weak man. Though I meant more like weak as in not good. ;_; Ahhh, one can not always be sattisfied. We should do a comic to end all comics!:D
Wow, thanks alot buddy! me not worthy!

Good luck and keep them coming!!

Hey Orifice
Thank you for stopping by my SB. Kind words as well. Thanks. Alot of fun stuff in here. I like the color works you have. The first post has some nice pieces. The android is particualrly nice in mood and render. SP in your avatar is well done. Looks good even without squinting:^^:.

HEy man, buddy list what is that , are buddies then? Its wierd that you put someone in your frend and they automatically become your frends. hehe. still its nice to be your frend . now the comic , cool update . but what would be better is you start palnning for longer term , do rough ,basic sketches of the next 10 -15 pages.And have the basic plot of atleast 50 pages in mind. Dont put details yet, start doodling. After you think the doodles are coming right then go to details. Like the lighting on the bodies. We will defintiely do a comic together. Heck I have even started writing a couple of stories,,,hehe.
take care.

Somewhat of an update. The guy fixing his robotic hand is the sketch for a digi that I'm doin for that same school-project. (Btw, my project-theeme is robots n humans.) My scanner insisted on blurring that guy. "But WHY?" -one might ask. That question my friend, I can not answear.

Pascallo - Appreciate your frequent stop by's alot man! N yes, its comin along... I just hope that I can keep that up. Agreeing that theres sumthin fishy 'bout them shoulders. Will look into it.

Asoir - Hah, wow thanks man! dunno about that though seriously.
Hehe, I've always dreamt of having sumthin on someones desktop, cool! Seya round!

Small update, for the comic. Just thought I'd upload it since I like the figure.
http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/2974/1greyfoxwo5.jpg

Btw, I will be uploading alot for a period now, I have to finish up a 10 page comic within 20 days or so. lots of drawing is needed.

[Jason C-M]

Good lookin' figure. No wonder you wanted to post it. The near foot is looking a bit rubbery, though.
Good luck on those 10 pages.

[Orifice]

Jason - Yeah, I do like it! And yes indeed, the foot looks rubbery, hehe great said, it looks very rubbery!
Thanks mang!

Colors. Its the character for le comique. So this should give ya a hint of what the comic will be like. Though more digital will be done.

[4rt-r41d]

damn nice stuff!
i want to see the last one finished :)
keep posting this awsome work.

[option]

You have a lot of good work in here.

One thing I would look out for though is to keep in mind that light reflects off diffrent materials diffrently (metal, guts, skin, cloth, etc). Shading everything in the same manner makes it look like its all made out of the same stuff.

Keep up the great work!

[Zombie_dla]

Your work is fantastic and I definitely think you should go pro (unless you already have). Lycka till ;)

Wth, Im doin a new post.

I have ripped Ashley Wood of alot here. And I am highly ashamed, no joke. Well, hope it aint bad enough for me to redo the page.
I'll try to tone it down in the next pages. I think I kinda brought the sketch down a bit... but I like the way the "motion blurr" worked out on his leg. Enjoy!
Oh yeah, if anyone spots spelling errors, shout it out to me!

In the third square, isnt it supposed to be "their" instead of "theyre"? Not sure myself. Anyways this is freaking brilliant man! Keep it up! This makes me want to buy a tablet myself...

[bhanu]

Hey dude, liek I said earlier , that is not entirely an ashley wood rip off.There is a whole lot of you in there too. some phil hale as well I might add. like I said an artist is the sum of his infleunces(actually evil disco said that). Liking the lettering. Not what I had imagined , but prolly better. heHe . NOw waiting for the rest of the pages.
take care.

[marioucci]

man the last 2 paintings are just f___ng awesome!

It has ashley wood in it , also phil hale but it also has something new. I love those.

great stuff

Mario

[lennon]

Tell me samething, in page 1 (about the middle), there are some bunch of drawings of robot head, and a guy with a collar. Please can you tell me exactly what pencil you used and how you made those renderings (tho ones above, robot-like heads)?
Great stuff man!


PS: a link to my thread http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=87893

[Orifice]

Bhanu - good words my man, thanks for that. Very glad ya like it too, heh the lettering aint really what I had imagined at all but the best I could find. Oh well, it works good enough..:)

Marioucci - Heh wow thanks meng!:D
Yeah, kindova mend there, it worked out nicely.

Lennon - Hmmmz, cant really remember. My guess is that its mechanical pencil, streangth hb or close. As for rendering, i guess I just do ass anyone... Heh preassuer sensivity!:D Thanks for the appreciation mister!

Page nr2 under construction. I have come out of the zone bigtime. Im pleased with the first board, not that happy 'bout the rest though. Tips and advise would be great! Theres a whole lot left on the middle one, and a bit on the bottom one. So tips are greatly appreciated.

oooh thats looking utterly brilliant! i love the subtle silhouette in the b/g...fantastic. and plus- that first panel on the last one is just sublime.

Great update, man!

the page looks smokin hot brother. especially the first panel , but watch out the shadows the street looks uphill because of them. the texture odn houses looks neat. All hail ash wood. hehe. but I a not getting the feel of a sequence in the second and third panel. maybe an additional inset panel or somethign might help. Definitely 5 stars stuff.

[designboot]

I like another comics page.
In your last work - this portrait it's to much dirty colors ... and nose is in diferent direction than eyes ...

cheers

[Envisor]

WOooo! THese last posts are kicking some ass. Cant wait for more.

[Orifice]

I have serious problems regarding this comic thing. I am real tired of the story I have right now and have a new one. So I dont know which one to choose.

In the first one the main character meets up with his dad and the comic has about 5 pages in blue-ish b/w and a more light-effect-y style. In these pages The character gets alot of story to what has happened and who he is. His dad is someahat of a crook he finds out. N then the comic has a so n so ending, which I could change. Wont tell the end!;)

The new idea is that ya follow 2 people. Both of them are extremely lonersome and has never met another human being. So these two meet by sercomstance, and together they can overwin their problems. Another thing could be that they battle eachother and the reader get to roote for one of them. Cuz they are kind of opposites. Hector is a city man and is kinda reprecenting fire. The otherone lives out on a big sandy wasteland, has white hair and dark clothes. He is representative of wind.

Both ideas are kinda so n so. The second one seem like the more fun to draw alternative right now... But the first one is more worked through n stuff.

HELP! check the poll at the top of the page. take a fuckin stand man n VOTE! make a change...;)

[Envisor]

Hey man gotta go with a mixture, how about as he is chasing his father, or trying to find him, he meets this opposite of his and they fight, and are really like equals, so both of them, beaten to a pulp by one another, find a new found friendship, or rivalry. The new guy agrees to help find the others father, who by what he knows of is still alive and running around the city.
Not sure what you think of this. The ending sentence kinda sucks, but you can figure the rest out or go with one of the other of your ideas.

[Sonaj]

Hey
Very nice style in here, great stuff

For your comic, i personally like your first version. It would be nice to get some background informations about hector, and the meeting with his father seems a good way to get this in. You don't have to make it that long, so you can have fun drawing other stuff after it. Just my opinion

Can't wait to see more of those pages, keep at it

[Orifice]

A conceptlike thingy. This is kinda what the new guys house would be like.

http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5872/1hellish2jn4.jpg

Replies n stuff later.

[asoir]

you gon' get GOOD when you're older. this shit is bananas. need i explain the spelling? ussum.

[Listing]

You have a great handle on form, gesture and all but your digital applications don't retain too much quality. Work on your brushes (I'm sorry I don't have much experience on the computer). Best might be traditional experimentation.

[bhanu]

the second one for sure, it kinda cool ,and the action will keep you from getting bored. It'll be fun for the readers too.

[Konstruktion]

I personally think the second idea sounds cool, two characters to develope, and that house is wicked! Kinda Mad Max feel you know?.. Anyways I don't think you should care about what anybody say, just goes with the one you think will be more fun. Or do both! Two 5-page stories?.... hehe

that picture where you used ref. is awesome! the nose is perhaps a bit crooked as someone mentioned earlier but damn nice. And perhaps try to experiment more with the different brushes! keep up the good work pidde

[Orifice]

Just trying to keep this floating... update comin soon hopefully, I've started a new tactic whitch is workin on many pages at a time, so updates will be scattered.

Assoir - Thanks a bunch for your continous support man! N I hope you're right.:)

Listing - Thanks for coment n crit! Im planning to do more traditionals in the future, but I wont give up the digis, I'll be sure to try to improve the flow n such in 'em.

Bhanu - Yeah, I have gone for that one now. I think it was a good choise. I'll show stuff soon.

Sarcophagus - Yes, the second one it is. Good that ya like it!:)
Yes, I'll go over the nose again. Hmm, brushes is a mystery to me. I'll try!

[Orifice]

Portrait revisited. What do ya think? My opinion is that the first one looks more raw. So I personally like the first one more. Wright sumthin.

Hm hard to say which one is greatest. One thing I do know is that the eyes are beautiful!

[Ben_Olson]

This last one is a keeper.

I found some really old Phil Hale stuff in a use magazine store. I'll try and remember to dig it up for you.

[Ben_Olson]

oops. I was looking at the first page when I posted that last comment. Anyway, I'll still try to dig up that old Phil Hale stuff. Great stuff on this page too though.

[Haxxxor]

the last one is really cool and i like your monsters hrhr.
keep at it

[Orifice]

Sarcophagus - Yeah, its up to me anyways, so I guess I'll just take whichever one I like the most! Har har! He looks more badass on the first one by me...

Ben Olson - Thanks for the drop by meng!:hatsoff: Hey very glad ya like the stuff!
Them Hale pics sounds very very interesting, I find it hard to find his stuff. So that sounds terrific! Lookin forward to it. Seya 'round!

Haxxor - Thanks piles my man!:D I'll swing by soon.

Now for a lil' update. Its once again sumthin for the comic. I'll do 4 of these, futuring Hector carrying a dead Skull(oh YES, he is killed of on page 2. haha no one will care.) out from the city.

Cheers!

Hey Orifice, these digital paintings are looking very solid. Very nice!

[Orifice]

Thanks for tha nice replies people!:)

Sarco - Damn. It aint his home and he aint goin in to the city. Sum text 'll explain it when I put the page together. Cool that ya likezit! Update yo SB soon man, this is starting to become bs hehe! Upload the comic stuff why dontya!

[Orifice]

Tiger - Heh, thanks again bud!

Wow man you're right about that sign its amazing! Damnit man you already have a style of your own and its awesome. Keep up the good work! looking good with the comic

[Pascallo]

Hey Offrice, mate! cool recent stuff!
On the last one the ground looks cool, on the former ones it sometimes tends to lack details some spaces look kind of empty. Furthermore, the horizont on the last could be a bit lighter for beeing farer away than the rest?
The sign is really cool!
Hard working, man!

[Orifice]

WOWSERZ! 5 PAGES! thats a respectable amount I'd say... I'd like to take this incredible historical moment in time to thank everyone who has come with inspirational, constructivly criticsome and motivating comments. You guys have helped me alot! So thanks everyone!:D

Sarcophagus - The sign fits my liking too. Though I'd not say I got so much of an own style. If I do kinda have, its not really what I would aim for... Fits good for a comic though! Spanks man, and really, UPDATE!

Pascallo - Hey long time no see! I'll be sure to swing by soon.
Glad you like the poop. I do agree with ya, the emptyness is somewhat of a problem in the first one the most. I'll try to fix that for ya!;) And very good tip bout the horizon meng! Thanks for that, its the first thing I'll fix. Seya around!:)

[Konstruktion]

I'd update if internet worked in my room where the scanner is (are?)! Though I'm not writing this in our sb, dont want to waste space. "keep up the good work! cant wait for an update! awesom stuff!! Seriously!

[Wasker]

Yeah! The comic kicks ass, more of that please :) a charming lose and paintery(spelling?) style you got there. One crit might be to vary the texture you pop over the image in the end, it stands out abit much as it is.:dad:
Anyway, I'll keep an eye on yer thread :) keep posting

[Orifice]

Sarco - K. Later then. N thank you for your nice comment Johan :)

Wasker - Thanks to ya man! Cool that tha style's appreciated! Horray!:D I'll defenitely follow your advice meng, thanks for the headsup.
Please do come back hehe, I'll be sure to do the same. in... your thread... that is. yes.

Ok, down to bussiness then. I have come up with a new quest for myself, which is keeping me from my comicing since yesterday. K, I'll take this from the beginning. Mr Conan o'Brien once mentioned "www.hornymanatee.com" as a joke on the show and if you mentione a site that site has to excist, so they mede it. And it has gotten several million hits so far. People have also been sending in fanart to the site. Conan has on his show displayed some of the fanart that has been sent in. You are probably getting where I'm hedding now. The quest is to make a fanart including conan and manatees, good enough to blow 'em away so that they show it on Late Night. It would be so cool! I'm a fan o' the show, so if they showed it there it would be so damn awesome. So here's what I've done so far. Its the 6 gunmen of the late show surrounded by horny manatees.

Oh and the Conan image its looking good, double check your
foreshortenings and you should be fine :D

[Call0ps]

!! wow.. that last one os really aswome , im loving how its turning in, the suit, the face those details and rendering are a real joy :)

[Tigermilk]

hey man that is totally rad. Loved the colors and rendering on the middle guy. Great movement on most of the figures. Be carful with the proportions on some of them tho, for instance the middle guy. His head looks too small.

cheers!
