Thumbs up Mike's Stuff(updated: 10-14-09)

NEW STUFF ON THE LAST PAGE

Hey guys,

I've been registered here for a while but I finally decided to make my own sketch thread. For the most part I intend to post daily/weekly sketches and color studies, but to start off I'll post a couple of random works. I always find it inspiring to have other talented artists comment on my stuff, so feel free. You'll find that my style (if I even have one) is extremely varied, I never liked being tethered to one way of doing things. Thanks for looking.

Thanks Spats. Here's another couple of pieces, after this I'll start posting some daily sketch work! I thought I'd give you guys a preview of what to expect in this thread. And hopefully, over time, you'll be able to see some improvement.

Thanks B-man.

Today's Color Sketch -- actually this was supposed to be a quick coloring practice piece but it took me a total of 5 hours! That's why I am so impressed with those who can produce fully painted photoshop masterpieces in less than 3 hours. How do they do that?!

Anyway, I may be posting other sketches today, as I get them done, so stay tuned.

Thanks, I rarely paint anymore so I'm having to re-learn certain things whilst applying them in photoshop. Although, my art instructor once said I was a better draftsman than painter, I hope to change that. And with all the resources and inspiring talent on this site, it's like being back in class again.

I like the post from the 20th - great Superman, and great drawings overall...your teacher was right about your draughstmanship - it's top notch, and I'm sure your painting will improve leaps and bounds if you stick to it.

Would love to see more
