[Wakkawa]

Well hello there concept art. Now that school (ringling, by the way) has started and I have finished filling up one of my sketchbooks, I thought I would start posting here.

now its time for the massive first post. Some lecture doodles in here too, just because.

made them into links so it wouldn't take up so much damn space!

I haven't worked in much digital lately, because well all I have is this crappy little notebook lcd to work on. ugh.

I think that should be enough for now.

[marco nelor]

oh yes, definately. /subscribe

[marco nelor]

and dude...pay attention in art history class...

[anticonnor]

Uh oh... I smell monster porn coming from this. Those are some beautiful girls you got there, especially this one (http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/down.jpg). Looking forward to seeing this thread become more depraved.

[Machineabuse]

I'm liking the hint of Range in these :)

[evildisco]

and dude...pay attention in art history class...


I second that.

Kickass work.

[Seedling]

Boobies, monsters, boobies, robots. . . It’s quite obvious what you like drawing, and it is obvious that you are good at drawing these things that you like. Perhaps you should draw things that you don’t like for a while. If you can find the beauty in things that are dull or annoying, you will go far.

[lord_rabboon]

your pencils are great but i just dig the digital

[Lee W]

ooooooh nice .... a variety platter :) a little of everything

[Wakkawa]

Hey, thanks guys!

Nah, there won't be much monster porn. Though I really do like the whole beauty and the best thing. :)

Also, range is my favorite artist. So I do take some from him.

I would love art history a lot more if it wasn't 3 hours of slides. Especialyl since I have it right in the morning.

boobs, monsters, and robots sure covers a lot, though. And yes, I can draw males just as well, but I just don't that much. I really should do more enviroments though.

Also, Im really tired but Im going to post this anyways. Its one of the doodles colored.

no pants!

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/special.jpg

Im sure when I wake up and look at this tomorrow Ill notice everything thats wrong with it. Right now though. oh well!

[Infinit]

hrhr
nice bunch of works here
for the last one:
the tire is flat
and the flare on her hair makes her look like astroboy ^^
imo her cheek is a bit too voluminous

[Burning Eyes]

some beautiful work here mate, keep it up i will check back later

[frostsnake]

HOT stuff!
how you draw those girls, is inspiiring, and the monsters and robots are cool!
for those history classes does the teacher pose for you or what??:)

keep updating!

[JERI]

nice sketchbook :)

[Fellah.]

Oh, very very cool!

[Supervlieg]

Monster and chicks, all well done! Love the pencils mucho.

[Recursive_End]

Very nice pics. Nothing to crit, love the characters and the colors.
Post more !!!

[BluePencilArtist]

Wow, very nice pencil doodles. I likes your style way you draw females. :bashful:

BPA

[vigostar]

this one rocks so hard

[oma]

this one rocks even harder in my eyes ---> http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/dissolved.jpg

[tgfx]

wow dude your style rocks man. I would love to have u on my crew...props...

[Niels23]

Amazin sb! Love it all. Agree with vigostar - that`s my favorite too. Keep this sb alive!

[Chiko]

Gorgeous art! /subscribes

I agree it is similar to range! Your pencils are super nice though.

[Goodbye..fromthevoid]

This is good work...but I wonder, did you work for these skills or did it come more natural. The clue that tips me off is the lack of background objects. Objects for the shirtless creatures to interact with. If your skill was the result of years of study you would have more things. But I don't really know. Maybe you are the hardest working person in the world.

Listen to an intelligent man. He is around here somewhere, I want to point him out to you when he comes in. He will have good advice for you. I don't know what to do, so you shouldn't ask me. Just because I have the biggest ego doesn't mean I am a genius, I could be subpar intelligence.

Furthermore you should put a warning in your thread title. A warning of mammies. Exposed flesh in line is a brain's interpretation of lust. Are you a girl? It's not fair.

[fedezz]

This (http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/down.jpg) is pure candy.
I totally agree with Seedling's comment. Let us see some finished full pics.
Cheers!

[Wakkawa]

Well, I did have this that I was going to submit to the blizzard thing. It wasn't good enough so I have started a new one since. This one is way too static.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/ibiza.jpg

Also, Ill have more sketches once I find another scanner.

[Seedling]

You seem to be having some trouble with the perspective on that gate. But the glowy light is lovely.

[Niels23]

Absolutely agree - that light is awesome! Very nice pic!

[Neokun]

Your art is beautiful, mate. Keep it up, Im lovin' it more than McDonalds.

Oh yeah, I did a funny.

[Mikko Voipio]

gaveth you them five stars you've well deserved. You draw those girls in a way I can only dream of oneday drawing. The line is simple and beautifull. Keep them pencil sketches coming.

[Tigermilk]

hot DAMN.
that's some A-class sketches right there.
this one is rad -
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/spikes.jpg

post more,
tigermilllk

[fooxoo]

Good book!!!
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/slipthenet.jpg - love this one, strong image.

Good style, the better ones are the less animeish ones.

Sweet, keep working!

[character]

the world can never have too many scantaly clad anime girls. love your rendering style in both pencil and digital. lookin forward to more. as far as crits go, i'd like to see you change the camera a bit and seeing some more action poses. peace out

[Wakkawa]

I figured I would be getting a lot more crap for the anime-ish style. It doesn't seem to be that popular around most art sites.

anyways, another digital doodle.

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/alone.jpg

I really want to do larger projects. But each time I start I give up because of my current monitor situation.

[evildisco]

You don't get shit from it when it is good quality.
People get nasty when it becomes generic anime junk.

[I0N]

Yeah this is great stuff...this is how great anime should be done!

[Burning Eyes]

yea, anime is too much the same with most people, your work is great because u know what your doin and u are original with it! lovely lovely stuff... keep it up! cheers

[Idiot Apathy]

Mmm mm, subscribed. Love the faces and pencil control, this one here:
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/dissolved.jpg
Stopped me in my tracks, nice!

Please promise me you'll never draw on lined paper again, it hurts my faith in humanity. :(

[bumskee]

oh yeah... *subscribe*

just the sort of things I want to draw.. heh. nice stuff man, more sketches!!

[Wakkawa]

Well, I drew on the lines paper between my notes. draw on whatever is there.
and colored this one quickly.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/raver.jpg

[blanquish]

man this stuff is cool.
And your damn lucky to be at ringling!
I notice that they all seem quite short, maybe make em a tad taller.
cool stuff nonetheless

[kuroart]

Really awesome stuff here. I'm not big into anime, but they are still cool. I especially like...

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/dissolved.jpg


Keep up the posting.

[Spats]

Yeah! Fantastic stuff, lovin' it all.

Keep posting!

[Wakkawa]

Just thought I would post up a real early pic Im working on.

more girl, and more monster
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/Other/monsterfantasy.jpg

[Alexandr Pascenko]

woot! woot! i´m glad ur posting , your work is great . i especially like the last update, definetly kewl style! keep this updated ;)

[Idiot Apathy]

Haha, I was just playing around about the lined paper. But seriously, I think they deserve some decent paper is all, get yourself a nice thin sketchbook to carry around; good ole moleskine perhaps.

Digging the girl in this last one, can't wait to see where you take it. Cheers.

[Fishspawn]

Smooth stuff here. I really like your style. Girls and monsters ftw! I would like to see some males in here, just to balance things out a little, and enviros would rock. Love everything, can't crit ~keep up the drawing.

[Wakkawa]

I was going to post this update last night, but I kinda forgot to.

Im going to change the girl, so its completely gone right now.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/whoyouare.jpg

[character]

hrmmm, i think the head should be smaller. it doesn't fit with the rest of the design as far as the pointy legs go. actually, now that i look at it, it's mainly the gizzard thing under it's jaw that's breaking that nice clean slope of the neck. just my 2 cents!

[Kuukulgur]

I like the sort of japanese touch to your work. The girl on the wolf looks great. This latest beastie is also interesting. Keep it up!

[silvestri99]

I love your pencil work and a real sexy feel to your women...keep it going !!

[j a k e]

Lovely. Really like your lines. Monsters are the way to go, trust me :) haha

[zombyboy]

beautiful work, the last creature is my favorite

-Sorry for my very bad english

[kuroart]

nice update. that last pic is coming along very nicely. cant wait to see it finished.

[Moai]

Ooh, but that last monster is nice! I right clicked it into my faves folder without a moment's hesitation.
Despite the slightly repetetive subject matter, you are one of the most well-rounded talents I've seen on this site in a while. It seemed as I scrolled down the page that your art just got better and better. First, it was obvious that you're good at scantily clad girls, then it was apparent that you're proficient with pencil shading, then some really nice robots appeared, then some fantastic digital artwork, and then some pretty good color stuff...Yeah, you're good!:rendered: The only fault I can find is your environmental work. The one you posted isn't quite up to the quality of your other work.

Keep it up! You've got a beautiful sketchbook!

[TheDirtSyndicate]

phew... cool shit.
i've never been a fan of the whole "anime" style... but you take it to the next level and actually make it look GOOD.
i love your work. keep it up.
:)

[Wakkawa]

Finally updating. I haven't had much time to draw lately because I have had more book homework than art. :/

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/yournumber.jpg
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/yeahcomeon.jpg

[Tigermilk]

incredible. ...again.
how old are you?

[Wakkawa]

Im 20.

why do so many people ask me that :(

[Jens]

wakkawa, it's because they're hoping that you are like 40 years old.. so they can be relieved that they still got a lots of years to reach your level :D

Really cool stuff man, that last one has some nice lightning. The anatomy on that last monster could be upped a little I think.

Take care and post some more!

[libor]

serious skills here!!

I dig it all, you got a bright future kid :)

Keep posting...

[one2hit]

nice sketchbook. the last two are my favorites, seeing as how they have more complete pallets, and they are more of a complete picture than just the sketches.

[Victor B]

lovely sketchbook you got here, and nice regular updates. I'll definetely subscribe. Keep posting as you can.

[JERI]

Im 20.

why do so many people ask me that :(

Why, to see if it's legal to hit on you of course.

[Interceptor]

I saw the lined paper and I was like "oh shit..." then I saw your work and was like " OH SHIT!"

Seriously, though this is great. And you're only 20?! That's filthy, keep this up, girl. And do what Marco says, pay attention in class ;)

[Ragathol]

You like girls, I see... I seee......... Totally Ragapproved ^_^ b
You've got a nice style there, keep it up.
But I'd like to see more full pieces, backgrounds, settings, comics? as well, not only characters.

[Wakkawa]

I was going to do a comic, though I suck at story telling. I suck at all written communication actually.

and ..small update, digital sketch i did this morning.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/herewego.jpg

[Call0ps]

really .. really nice stuff!!!! love your style, and keep updating :) plz

[voraz]

Just found another great sketchbook!
keep it up.
cheers

[Dile_]

Just found another great sketchbook!
keep it up.
cheers

Seconded!

Great work in here! I've seen your sb on the front page before but never clicked :S :P haha, Wish I did, you got an awsome style! and you really handle the female anatomy verywell! keep it up!'

~Dile

[Sublimus]

I was wondering why you never posted on CA before now Wak.

Great stuff.

[hp]

your style is exactly what i'm aiming for :) very inspirational and sexy characters

[J.Peckham]

nice style. and the final images have a really solid look.

[MysTiK]

Dig u style a lot man, keep it comin

[Moai]

That last one is hot! Her head doesn't seem quite right, though. Like it's both slightly out of proportion and slightly out of place. Still very sexy, though.

[lowaim]

Oh gawd, I love theese! keep it up :D

[Waffle_King]

Very well done.

So much talent here at CA... makes me head :xpld:

Keep drawing! OH yeah yeah yeah HIT IT!

-Andrew

[Wakkawa]

Thanks guys. I agree about the head on that one. I really need to go back and fix that.

and some new ones.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/sweetmisery.jpg
real early space scene.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketch/docking.jpg

its going to end up kinda like this one.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/sneakattack.jpg

[MrBobMarley]

You're in my top five early sb's now. Creativity is running rampant here. 5 stars from me!

[shaoshao]

really beautiful work! I love the first one of this last batch

[Call0ps]

! fu$%&ing amazing! those last updates ... each update u do, its a party at my house :P lets never stop :P ( PLZ! i beg u

[Camara]

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/sweetmisery.jpg

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Could you do a tutorial about this one,please??That would be really really good!!

[designboot]

It's just I like it

[tekdj]

Wakkawa Just popped into your SB for the first time.
I'll be coming back again and again, some really lovely work here.
Your girls are well cool.
Very inspiring :)

tekdj (http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=77139)

[Vishaka]

Your girls are so cute! Some of your work reminds me a bit of Range Murata.

[paberu]

Really cool stuff, I think it's really great you keep such diversity with your work. Love the space stuff, it reminds me of Homeworld.

Second a tutorial/walkthrough/process thing! Keep it up, really great inspiration for me.

[FalconInverse]

It is as disco sayeth.

If you want to see anime done wrong.. you can look anywhere and find it.
If you want to see anime done right.. this is a good sketchbook to be in.

Many people choose anime as a shortcut, which they feel exempts them from needing to know about anatomy or proportions.
The true champions of anime (According to me, anyway) are the ones who have been able to find that middle ground, bringing Anime and realism together.

Keep em comin!

[Onir]

I always love finding really nice sketchbooks to watch :) beautiful work, too many pieces to name, though I will say all your pencil works blew me away and http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/down.jpg really got me; looooooove colors like that lol. again beautiful work, I'll be sure to check in often ;)

[Wakkawa]

I would love to do a walkthrough, its just that my process is so random. Though I do try to keep things on as few of layers as possible. Ill try to make one the next time I start something.

And here are some figure sketches. I don't do tell well on these, because my eye site is so bad. All I can see are just the general shadows.

[marco nelor]

yo wakka wakka......i love your junx. get off yer arse and make a website, wat tha fuk.....

[Moai]

And you can draw spaceships, too. Damn you.
The girl with the sword is amazing.

[PHATandy]

Really awesome stuff, i find it hard to understand why ure not on 5 stars. You truly make my 4 stars unworthy.
Keep at it.

[character]

some great stuff man. i love the style you've got going on

[edart]

I opened this sketchbook and started scrolling down at first I was mmm this is ok then it got to that's great and now well its like wow this is
Well cool stuff!!!

[Calle_]

Yeah i dig it to =).
on that last one tho, perhaps try to move the mouth and nose a tad to her left perhaps? dno just felt outof place.

i'd give you five but I dont vote =)
peace

c_.

edit: left.. hehe

[Nostradamus]

Argh I'm gonna kill myself ^^
awesome, awesome dedication - 20 years old, wow!
*bow*

[Chiko]

Your stuff is really coming along great! My favorite has to be the piece with the lady and the sword. Very nice!

You seem to have a better sense of facial propotions on your more realistic stuff then your animeish girls.

I really love your shading. The spacey- ship designs are very cool as well.

Mechs are one thing I just plain suck at :(

[kuroart]

awesome updates.
This one expecially:
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/sweetmisery.jpg
those life drawings are nice, too.

[T-lapia]

Really nice posts! i really like your digipaints!

[Matsign]

Oh, I've got a great Range artbook and you've really adapted the style. But then you got this other work that is just mind blowing. I've got that sweet misery up on my wall! Stars and subs.

[Wakkawa]

Oh man its a struggle to get the cartoonish face proportions down. Alot of range's face are really off, but they just look so right.

pretty weak update, but I should have a bunch of pictures done for halloween.
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketchbook/r.jpg
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketchbook/s.jpg
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketchbook/t.jpg

Also, I suck at scanning.

[Moai]

I like the strange limb structure on that dragon. Little imaginative things like that make my day.

[Sartell]

So my friend Greg was like "wakkawa is crazy good".... but this is ridiculous~* That first one (all three rock) on #78 is
phenomenal, have you thought about posting this in the FF? You should seriously~*

I'm showed you to a bunch the Junior CA's at Ringling (hope you don't mind), all very impressed. You'll do well here i'm sure~*
Keep posting.

-Joel-

[Mahdira]

holy crap, wakkawa. I mean, I knew you were good, but I didn't know you were this good. Seriously! And the feather samurai girl is amazing. I love the coloring. Fantastically mind-blowingly awesome. You're going to be one of those guys we all hear about who gets offered a $60,000 job in his junior year.

ps-this is lisa from g.c. <3

[I0N]

wow this sketchbook is on fire and it keeps burning brighter...too awesome!

[Wakkawa]

I probably wont even make it to my junior year. What with the money thing.

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/touchme.jpg
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/witch.jpg

I haven't done much lately. Wanted to do more with that last one, but just can't work on it anymore.

[e-beef]

subsribe.

[Sartell]

3rd and 4th ones are incredible. Honestly, you may not even need to make it to junior year, these are just on a different level
than almost anyone here. Have faith, be frugal, and maybe this is just me but if you said you were already a professional, i'd probably
believe you~* Best of luck.

Oh, and I hope you made it to the Amano presentation:^^:

[Wakkawa]

subsribe isnt even a word! hehe.

Oh yeah I definetely went to the amano thing. As you can tell by the second picture :)

Though, from what I heard my design teacher was pretty pissed by how many people skipped her class to go see him.

[paberu]

Hey wakkawa, sweet updates! Keep the updates coming :D!

Oh, I'd love to see more organic enviro stuff from you (mountains, grass fields and foresty stuff). Since you don't seem to draw much of that, well that's pretty much the only suggestion I can give. :yayca:

[silvestri99]

you have some amazingly beautifful stuff in here. i would also like to see a tut on some of your work and your process. keep 'em coming!!!!

[Fishspawn]

Inspiring stuff. I second rayk, girls, spaceships and monsters are great, but trying some other stuff would increase your potential.

It is good to see the live figure drawing. Keep doing that, and keep rocking the style.

[bhanu]

I think I should admit , that I am a big anime fan.And yes I am abig fan of yours too Wakkawa. I think theres always this notion on many art sites that anime=shit , but I am relieved to see this is not the case here, good art should gets due appreciation . My fav. is the monster in post 48.
keep up the great work.

[Chiko]

Ah the witch girl is really cute. I love the angle that it's at. I think if you were to add sky color and some clouds it would nicely round it out?

[Halifax]

That monsterous pointy legged creature is kind that belongs on conceptart.org I agree with fooxoo the less anime-isque the better the piece.
Great use of contrast and varying line widths make art. I also love that your art isn't completely centered.

[Infinit]

you are crazy good
do you work proffesionally already?

[thirdeye]

Great stuff, pure eye-candy all over :)

[Wakkawa]

I do center my work up a bit too often. I have been trying to stop doing that lately though.

I still have a long while until I can even think about doing this for money. We are starting some basic outdoors perspective tomorrow, so hopefully I can get some practice doing those kind of things.

[Onir]

nice digi. painting, I like the solid colors. must say though, your pencil work just blows me away; very clean stuff, great work on those. also I reaally like that girl in the bikini on the second page, great pose and look overall. keep at it!

[bhanu]

Ahh the goodness,
You said some time back you sucked at storytelling. I cant believe that.But if you think that your storytelling skills are bad the only way to polish them is to practice, and get crits from the wise people here. So go ahead and practice. Good job with perspective btw.
Take care,
Bhanu.

[wirehead]

nice works there ...love them keep em coming

[Shamagim]

Wakkawa.....your stuff rocks, specially on page 2.

[Beelow]

I like that environment. give it a third perspective I would say! Still hip though!

[Wakkawa]

I dont really use any instant message things. Im really bad at them.

http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/cg/whentheskyfalls.jpg

Also, I'm pretty sure I just pissed off one of my friends when we somehow had a a discussion about gerneral thoughts and art. :/ Never doing that again.

[liam.c]

[ArtZealot]

[boomheadshot45]

Boobies, monsters, boobies, robots. . .
Everybody likes them, and add them together, and you get :D lol
Very nice drawings, i love the shading.

[Wakkawa]

Wish I had more time to work on my own projects. Instead I have like 5 god damn essays to write.

An angel wip. So far from being done
http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/other/angelwip.jpg
and that monster, just colored for shits and giiggles.

Awesome and sexy stuff, as usual.

love your work mate, the colours and the chicks! oh the chicks are sweet.. cheers, Min

[afklamer]

The worst thing on ca is that you open another of those 5 stars topics and you get kickassed by someone 3 years younger than yourself, im really jealous, love your stuff.. keep it up cant wait to see more

[cakeypigdog]

you are achieving a great level of solidity in your digipaints. very bold and impressive!

Whoa! 5 stars immediately!wicked SB!

-d

p.s. - Thanks for visiting my SB and thanks for the crit. i'll add some clouds or something in the void.

[Victor B]

great update, my favorites are the eyelash girl and the feather dress, nice stuff. Thanks for posting

[Wakkawa]

dtran - thanks. I totally just did the void thing in my newest sketch.

vctr - That feather dress picture took so much longer than the others. Did a lot of experimenting on how to do the feathers. Glad you liked those.

and a new one from last night -

[nofingers]

So many pretty ladies. Really dig your works, the poses are really interesting, and they all have great lighting

[oma]

fantastice

[tehmeh]

brilliant stuff, subscribed!

[Brendan N]

Wow dude, wicked execution! I've rarely seen a style like this executed so well and handled so flawlessly. 5 stars man, very unique stuff!

ciao!

[AztcFireFlower]

Hi Wakkawa,
I am so thorouhghly impressed with your SB. The quality that I really like about your work is your compositional choices in the female portraits, particularly the girl with the headphones in post #142 and girl with palms up in #159. I love the use of negative space here (The tendrils cutting into the grey is sweet) and in Girl sitting in circle#106. Lovely gestures. You're quite advanced in your digital painting skills. The portrait in post #78 with that negative space in the pattern going into the background is just gorgeous. Sketch/dissolved and slipthenet-Beautiful! Not to ignore your environments, simply outstanding. May pester you with questions in near future.

[tokidokizenzen]

Pantylicious!

[GaryBedell]

wow your stuff is wonderful, I'll give this thread a 5 baby!

[Ian L]

Very impressive artwork with a good clear style ... love it !. Your life drawing sketches and pencil sketches are very nice indeed. :)

[Koh]

I'd really like to see you try different things, like more scenery, objects and males. Your females look pretty similar, you need to work on making them look more unique physically. Just a suggestion, I think it would improve your artwork.

I really like the witch and the last scene.

[motives]

damn! nice works! I love your way to colour

[Sartell]

Great updates Waka. BUUUUUT, kinda more of the same!! You can draw the ladies all day (clearly), I would like to see you take this phenomenal skill into a more practical application or outside your comfort zone, and a dude or two would be cool too:).... The latest enviro's are great i'd like to see more of those~* I keep talkin to your RA about you, and I had a long talk w/ your roommate the other day about your hotfire skillz, keep it up!

PS use some green too. You hate on green:}

[Wakkawa]

Hey thanks guys. I liked to reply to you all individually, but Im kinda not feelin good right now so I'm sorry. the comments and crits really do mean alot to me though.

Ill try to add a few new subects for my next ones. I have been trying lately though.

[Ben_Olson]

Wow! That's all I'm going to say I guess. You are a badass

[Mr.Blonde]

wow, these seem very therapeutic.. very nice update! i applaud you! I would like to see some different kinds of typography, i am fascinated by different handwriting/writing, and I'd like to see what your brain comes up with! Art is better therapy than most everything else. I am completely addicted to it. (i don't post my personal stuff)

[JERI]

I personally think your pencil renderings are very well done Wakkawa. Question: when you do the shading for the bodies (such as this one (http://wakkawa.iseenothing.com/sketchbook/jj.jpg)), do you use a soft pencil or do you hatch very finely with a harder pencil? (looks like hatching to me, but wanna make sure) Whichever you use, I really admire how easy you make it for the viewers to discern levels of darkness in your shading.

Also, very cool idea with the peacock dress concept.

[dtran]

You make it all seem so easy, everything from your pencils to your paintings. You're such an inspiration. Keep posting.

-d

[4rt-r41d]

Fantastic stuff!

[Beelow]

I think that your character work is far more superior than your environments. I am always happy to see new work from ya.

[DeMoon]

I do not have words .... I am only moisten with saliva ))) it is desirable to eat all your girls, they seem very delicious...

[Jason Manley]

I would like to see a bigger range of character types in the body of work...each characters face unique and each attitude specific to the character on the inside. You fall back on conventions well...now it is time to push.

just my two cents....


J

[j a k e]

Great stuff again, I like the interaction of the girls with the monsters etc. But I do agree with Jason. Keep it rockin'.

[maxetormer]

GOOOOD work!!!!!!!!!!!! I agree with Jason, and dam post MORE!!!

[Alex Alexandrov]

woooow i didnt seen your sketch book before very nive stuff five stars from me ....

[Yoell]

subsribe
*its a word now

[Darius the Mediocre]

You're as amazing here as on the AC.

[TheDirtSyndicate]

fucking amazing updates... i haven't checked back here since the first page, man you've seriously stepped up your game. good job... keep it up.
:)

[-leo]

Your practices are inspiring... I wish you could put more interest into environments, right now your characters looks much more vivid and interesting. Anyway, subscribed to this thread. Keep posting please.

[Sketch]

So FUCKING sexy... don't change a damn thing. Just keep rocking it.

[asoir]

I've never seen Manley in a sketchbook before.
Great stufff.
Sketch- you're contradicting Jason, but fair enough ;P

[Wakkawa]

ok, wow had to cut this short as my neice really wants to help me type I guess. some more updates!

Jake: will do! thanks

Jason: I know exactly what you mean. I plan on doing a lot of expressions work over break. Ill just to get those uploaded too.

demoon: hehe, oh really?

beelow: Yeah, my environments still need a lot of work. But Im trying though!

wakazou: thanks!

dtran: thank you! Ill try to keep posting, but I haven't because I have been pretty busy lately.

Jeri: Thanks. With the pencil shading, I use a cheap bic .07 mechanical pencil. Ill lightly hatch back and forth to build up the darker values. If the pencil marks are too obvious Ill just blend the entire thing with my finger to make a midtone then kinda do it again to make it sharper.

Mr.Blonde: Ah, I write like a little kid. My handwriting is absolutely horrible

ben: thanks!

I think this is all I've got. wish I had more.

[tokidokizenzen]

I absolutely love the color work in the last image. Awesome work Wakkawa.

[★slash★]

very good

[makoa]

dude, these are rockin, the sketches look just as good as the digipaints. the faces all look similar though, as jason manley said. keep at it though, i'm liking this stuff mucho

[FactorZero]

you've got really inventive designs..it inspires me to work on my character designs. there is also a real 'softness' to your style, kinda dreamy

[Razorb]

haha love the team rocket pic ! :D lol

man ur stuff is insane .. thats all i can say serioulsy insane !

[Idiomatic]

This is great work. It's nice to see your traditional work as well as the development of your style; all too often people concentrate on the one or the other. I really like the pieces that maintain a graphic emphasis with some illustrative touches. Keep it coming!

[Listing]

You've got wonderful gesture (great quality). But I wish, like Jason above, that you'd vary characters and maybe lose that anime form (wonderful designs are wasted on that kind of convention). Keep going.

[koppa]

awesome stuff man

[Camara]

sweeeeeet!

[Cold]

lovely purple and yellow composition, excellent sketch, as all the rest... heh

[Kaoru]

Hey Wakkawa~

I'd like to see some different types of characters from you. Some more enviros would also be beneficial [true for most of us, I think...]. Also, I think you should pay more attention to the hands and feet of your characters, maybe find some reference for drawing them.

But anyway, nice to see lots of sketches and gesture work here.

[Koh]

You are an amazing artist, keep it up I'm subscribing.

[bumskee]

WACK! sweet.. i love them chicks!. :P cheers, Min

[OntheroadtoACAD]

Wow man I love this style of art, creative anime. Great stuff (Saved almost all of it to my painting/drawing study folders.) Keep up the awsome work man. (I still have 2 years till I have to be up to par with you muhahaha)

[JERI]

I've said before that you manage light and dark really well, in pencil and in full color (and it looks like you've got cell-shading nailed too). I really think it's something you're strong in and I look forward to more finished pieces so I can see your quality in all its glory.

With your latest batch, the only one that stands out is the very last image. I get the feeling that the feet and the ankles look a little awkward. I reckon maybe if you reposition the feet so we're viewing it from the side or the 3/4 angle will make them look cooler.

Keep updating mate :).

[anubis713]

<3
I am completely impressed here!
Your work is amazing!
Your characters have so much life and character!
(ps: the jesse and meowth drawing was hilarious but superb! heehee)
I am really jealous right now...


*runs off and starts drawing*

[Jtho]

Hey Wakka, have you ever spent time studying fashion or clothing, or would you say your costume design is more of a natural knack? This is something I've been wondering for a while, your character attire is always so original.

[Beelow]

Nice character works as usual. That is a great suggestion that manley gave to you about body types. Now lets see Wak get some fat chick in those stockings hehe!

[Wakkawa]

I know this is so late but thank for comments and crits. I haven't exactly had that much free time to do my own pictures lately though. I have been painting way to many colored squares. Really burns you out at the end of the day D: Still mostly portraits though.

[Beelow]

Well look who is back from the dead. Nice new stuff, how is your sculpting going by the way? The first one is my favorite out of this new batch. I hope to see you more often.

[~Faust~]

Well, you got my deepest appreciation. And the pictures go directly onto my HD now.

[DanielC]

[Camara]

We were starving,man!!!Thanks for that update!!That last fairy is just awesome!!

[themissinglink]

wow, everything is amazing, especially your sence of color.

[drd]

Can I ask you how you go about coming up with a new character design? Or do they just unexplainably pop up in your head? I wish I had the creativity of some people, but I don't even know if you can train that efficiently....D=

[TheDirtSyndicate]

fuck man, lovin your new stuff, 3 whole new pages (forum pages) of work since i last commented, thats awesome!
how about some progress shots of a colored piece??
:)

[Wakkawa]

Hey thanks guys! Ill try to update more frequently again.

Beelow: I've been so lazy, lawl. That scuplture has been finished for awhile. Well mostly, since I still have to paint it.

kingkostas: hehe, I just like to keep things a little bit simpler in some. tHanks!

call0ps: thanks, can and will do.

factor zero: I totally did that one has a joke for my friend who just loves nosebleeds for some reason

camara: I spent so much more time on that one. It was actually a really old sketch that I just painted over for shits and giggles. Ill post some pics of its progress since I actually have those for some reason.

drd: I pretty much just wing it everytime... yeah

complete2: ha, this is kinda a progress but eh.

OK so I skipped a few parts. Thought it was kinda boring back then so I changed the pose and chose a completely different pallete for the finished picture.

[voxelfog]

amazing thread
very cool stuff. :)

[Wakkawa]

haha thanks guys. I have been keepin busy over the summer, and I haven't updated in a bit so here are a handful of some of the things I have worked on.

I'll still be goin to ringling. Just 5 more days left, wooo.

voxelfog: Sometimes I use references, but a lot of the times I don't. Its not that Im against it, I'm just kinda lazy on finding them.

supben: thanks!

razorb: Ah yeah I love doin just black and whites. A little bit of colors in those are fun too.

Idiot apathy: Thanks. I really do need to branch out more, I say this alot but never do. I'm really goin to try to focus on some environments, because I really need to do that.

andreas: My stuff isn't super generic anime so I guess that counts for something, haha.

Call0ps: Thanks. sometimes I dont feel like I am improving, but then I look at the beginning of this sketchbook and laugh. Some of these are really bad.

[Camara]

At last an update!!!!And a great one!!!!

[Alex Alexandrov]

lovely stuff i really like the faces of the girls :)

[funfetus]

Wow, beautiful -- great drawing, and I love the subdued colors and crazy textures.

Awesome stuff, i could learn a fair bit from youre lovely use of colours too.... :heart:

[bumskee]

damn nice lighting!.. the second is such a hard angle, you've executed it really well.
