Hey Knacki,
I am kicking myself for not being around lately. Just too much going on. Between you, Zero and others the forum has been busy
You especially have been on a spree. Wow. It’s good to see. Let me see. Where did I leave off?
The River. This is such a luminous and atmospheric painting. It is right up there with your best in it’s own category. It almost seems like there is naiad wreathed by the mist in the very back.
Characters - Its fun to see your symmetrical characters. Looking at them, it would easy to go deeper in a fantasy painting using them as subjects in different poses. The turtle shell made me grin
Cute Girl is giving me a professional animator feel. Well done.
Desert fits right in with your minimalist style and I like it except for the sun. It just seems it would be better with a shade of haze on the rim. It’s too perfect. What I like the most is the actual lighting and the right side especially.
Sea Palace 2 is Mystical, Atmospheric and like Taron said. “Story oozing out of it.” Hmmm. Makes me want to go back to The River and start a story with a Naiad and lead it from River to Desert to Sea Palace and beyond.
GirlPortrait. Personally, I like this. It reminds me of the Blade of the Immortal artist and the chalk effect is outstanding.
Girl Sketch through Girl Afro 2 and your avatar. “But I need these lines, I am not a real painter” thppppttt! All I need to discredit that statement is to go back to the River hehe. You have endowed her with a lot of character A+++
Packed Head - Sometimes tests lead us into the wonderful and unusual. I like the sketch effect you have here.
Portrait Test 6v- The story with the Naiad needs an antagonist and I think this is the one
Blinded by the sun and barely surviving by running into a pyramid she has been tracking the Naiad on her perilous journey through the desert to the Sea Palace.
Character sketch exercises. Everyone should do these for fun and practice.
CuteWeb Ref - Ilustrator Par Excellence!
Sexy! - Wonderful approach. She definitely has “tude”
Splash Mountain - Very topographical and pleasing colors
V4D - This looks very spacy. Nice color combo
Black Composition through Black Snakes - These are just too cool (thumbs up)
Fluid Ocean or Dune? Who cares? It Rocks!
Fluid Ocean through 38 jpg. Great series here and wonderful effects.
26 through 25 series by post. Very minimalist and fun but 39 stands out from the rest with its great use of color. I am dubbing it the Modern Yin and Yang
Two Stroke Poem and the golden stroke. Wow! I prefer 39 but this is only behind by a hair.
Rabbit! What can I say? I love this.
Yoda! I think the force was you on this one. Great style
I believe the word Taron was reaching for was etching. Very crisp.
Vervy Metal banner does remind me of Diablo as Pilou mentioned and Verve Big 2 banner. Spot on and makes me want to try it also.
BernardNdichuNjuguna I like the subject and believe it made for great practice. I am not going to look at the original. I like this one lol.
Concept - Very solid and Vivid indeed. There is a story connection also as the hero trying to find the Naiad makes his entrance
Pheww you almost made me work this time. Great ride you have been on!
