Jeff Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 @Wraith:> A little enviroment and a couple characters. I'm trying to get my poses to look loose and not so stiff like they have been.Awesome concept art. It reminds me of skyrim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magezhilo Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 @Murdoc: Many of Kusy's critiques are correct, whether he gives them because he's jealous or not I really couldn't care less. The people I remember the most aren't the people that tell me I'm a good artist, but the people that tell me the opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murdoc Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Cool looking Knight.. the tarnish on the metal looks realistic.By the way I wasnt saying I disagreed with Kusy about the proportions. They are off in some places obviously. Just that art doesnt always have to be perfect to be appealing to the audience. Hence why I used Van Gogh as an example. But one could argue that Van Gogh's proportions were often messed up because he was mentally disturbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Your perspective is improving all the time but the slant is still noticeable in a lot of the newer pieces. Keep practising and you'll get rid of it eventually. Looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Crusade Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I love when you take extra time to detail. The battlemage is an example of this. Your research and practice on poses is getting better, particularly hands and heads, but… what is this?I've been following a few artists lately, and I would encourage that you create/find/use more brushes strictly for detail. Materials, and such, so when you work on shorter pieces, or even pieces like the armor, you have a realistic but flexible brush you can play with to quickly add scratches, or rough terrain, or cloth, metal tarnishes, etc.But as I've previously mentioned, your improving fast, and your doing incredible for your age. I wish I kept drawing when I was younger… but I guess music and pixel art is my thing. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murdoc Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 The way the dragon is sitting he looks like hes taking a shit. And the wings dont seem to line up with his back properly. They look nice overall though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawQuart Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 It all looks amazing but the self portrait seems to have a few mistakes. It looks like you have a huge bump on the back of your neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renzo Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 LOVE the Goliath pic, can't see anything wrong with that.Self pic, looks like your arm is jabbing through the table rather than resting on it, your neck looks like it has a dent and no Adam's apple, and the lump on your back as Jungle pointed out. The face, as usual, looks great.The lizard looks good up until the right arm, that thing is a fucking mess, it looks like its broken and twisting out from under the pauldron. Speaking of the pauldron, that thing is strapped on way too tight, especially if its on the sword arm, normally that arm would need the most amount of mobility, and then that sword… best I can describe it is "flat", it looks like it should be jabbing into its chest.Not too much I can say about the last pic, only thing I can nitpick about it is the right pocket, I feel it should be at more of an angle following the hand going into it.Good stuff as usual, looking forward to more from ya.

There is no reference for the self portrait because it was drawn directly from a mirror, the bump is just a little bump in my shirt, shit happens guys, its not a problem with the portrait, it's just what my shirt looked like. I spent 10+ hours on the painting making sure everything was how it should be. The angle of my neck made it look like my adam's apple isn't coming out but if you look at the shading you can still see it, the arm is resting on the table, but the fat I have is hanging down off the table, that's why it looks like the table is cutting into it, try it yourself and you'll see.

mrmiguu Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 For someone with no soul, you sure can draw.Have you ever attempted Minecraft artwork? I'd find it interesting to see painted cubes and the sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magezhilo Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 I guess I've been replying only to the critiques, but thanks everyone for liking my art and bein supportive :)And Miguu I have not, I'm sure if I did my brother would have me be painting all kinds of stuff for him on there -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
