*** Guillom's Sketchbook ***

[guillom]

Hi everybody !

I've decided to work a bit more on my 2D skill this year , since i've been doing ...... hummm nothing
I'll post some new stuff , studies ( mostly ) concepts and maybe some 3d
My old sketchbook sucks , that's the main reason for a new one

[xsdk01]

Are these people related to each other? Most of them have pretty short calves.

[guillom]

...And some studies ( in color now ) and few concepts

[guillom]

xsdk01 : Actualy they are since they're all from a photoshoot session about street fashion ( check it out on google if you're interested )
About the calves i must say that i'm not really good with anatomy yet, that's why i try to draw as much as i can .
The fact that some are wearing baggy trousers doesn't help too

here is another study from ref and 3 concepts from me

[yaowangdi]

Man I am waiting for you new posts.............good works

[guillom]

yaowangdi THX MAN

[Joce]

really nice portrait.

[escape2mars]

Wow! I didn't see your old sketchbook, but this one is looking great! Are you using photoshop or painter? I still have difficulty sometimes telling the difference.

[guillom]

escape2mars : Thx man ! I use Photoshop , i've tried painter but it's still too bugy and slow

Joce : Thanks a lot

a study and a concept i've done for a 3d model...

[carlosranna]

Some nice paintings here!

[guillom]

carlosranna : thanks a lot man

here is another study i'll try to finish , just started really
this time i've used painter

[mik.c]

I would watch the symmetricality of the faces- some look a bit lopsided.
Keep up the good work!

[algenpfleger]

Your pencil characters are sweet man! Hey when you're doing color studies, do some from life too. Helps way more

[RandAlThor]

Pretty good start to a sketchbook. Keep working those figures and faces and make sure you keep posting.... you'll look back in a few pages time and really see how far you've come, which is always inspiring. ;-)

[Jorge Gecov]

Very cool sb, you did some great portraits!
Keep up the good work.

Cheers,

[guillom]

Jorge Gecov : Thanks a lot !!!

RandAlThor : I hope you're right , thx for the support

algenpfleger : Thanks man , I will follow your advice ! I like your thread too !

mik.c : I will be more careful of this next time , thanks for your crit

Ok i finally took the time to scan few of my hands studies... first are the most recent

First i've just finished this one

[guillom]

the first one is without ref and the portrait is from a life drawing session

[D@niel]

Lots of great work in here, good work with all the studies!

[guillom]

D@niel : Thanks a lot , i really like your work , some great studies in your SB too !

Here is a very fast sketch for a quick update

[gkrit]

seems like u got good control with your hand. you got some nice portrait works also.

only ... with the guys mouth in post 16, i think theres something wrong. unless that was the awkward position he was actually in. but just have a second look at it and see whats wrong with it.

[Reject-D]

keep up those portraits!!

[guillom]

Reject-D : I will

gkrit : thanks dude, i wish i could have even more control on that damn hand ! The guy you just mentioned in post 16# is a study from a photo, the shot was taken when the guy was opening his mouth and at the same time shaking his head. The very fast shutter speed of the camera just froze the movement which gave this odd shape to the face.

[Peetaer]

good shit man. you've got a wicked cool style.

[guillom]

thanks a lot Peetaer

Here are some 3d stuff i've been doing , finished and not finished

[guillom]

up some doddling

[guillom]

[guillom]

here is the quick sketch done

[AlstonInk]

Nice work G, good sketches and studies, (you can never have enough practice). The 3D work is stand out, the models look fantastic. What software you using for the 3D work?

[Sublimus]

Awesome stuff! the 2d will catch up to your amazing 3d very soon im sure!

[harachte]

Good stuff, Guillaume!! Glad to see that you're getting better by the day. Keep it up, man!!
