Nux however sees penis patterns.

Oh, that isn't my penis. :P

Nice stuff. I can see a lot of potential in that last pic. Maybe add some grizzly details.  8)
Here's some of the stuff I'm seeing in the Alchemy shapes: http://collaboratenow.cozimo.com/collaborate?url=http%3A//fc00.deviantart.com/fs51/i/2009/262/7/5/mission_f_______failed_by_Nrekkvan.png
^ Spoiler: It's all DeathSkull's fault.

It's a collab, which I only contributed dragons to.

I am well aware that you would never draw a dick into someone's else picture dear Nux!

Here is my latest, its a speedpaint so don't zoom in for too much fancy detail. But I hope the mood is right. Gimp, no layers, about 2-3 hours.

Overkill, your landscaping is absolutely breathtaking; it is well composed and pleasant to look at.

I would recommend getting some books on drawing figures though: it seems you suffer from many of the problems you had with your earlier artwork when I see that last picture.

Quote

The human figure is one of the most difficult things, if not the most difficult thing to draw.
If you have any spare money, I would invest in a few books that could help you take your art to an even higher level and start adding living things to your work.

Keep it up man!

To play devil's advocate, Killer Whale isn't completely correct. As with everything, drawing the human figure comes more naturally and easily to some people than others. I see that landscapes come incredibly easy for Overkill (lol stfu pervs). I have this thing for noses. My friends find it really difficult to draw a somewhat okay looking nose, while I find it incredibly easy.

However, I think your cartoonish people is less a question of what your style is and more a matter of lack of understanding of the human figure. If you look at some anatomical diagrams, it might help you, even, get an understanding of how muscles and bones interact and their proportions with regards to the rest of the body and such.

Hey guys, thanks a lot for feedback again! The guy on that pic is not human, or at least not anymore. Check the fullview please: http://nrekkvan.deviantart.com/art/Edge-of-Sanity-138469108 I should have made the figure bigger, that few details that make him clearly unhuman are sort of hard to see. And could you be more specific about the anatomy of this specific picture? Thanks again!

I think they mean that the human-like creature in the picture looks a little stiff and flat. Unlike with walls and landscapes, the pose of a creature is very important visually and subtle changes in the positioning of a body part can mean the difference between a relaxed posture and an alert posture.

It's particularly the head and shoulder which look uncomfortable in this picture. You could achieve a more natural pose by having the head face more toward his forward and have his shoulder dropped slightly, showing more depth with the arm by facing the elbow slightly away from us. He needs to look like he's carrying the weight of that sword in a meaningful position (e.g. Resting, Ready to strike or Making a gesture)

It's always best to take a look in the mirror if you have trouble finding natural poses.

Hey guys, I have been offline for like two weeks. Weird, especially now that Finland made 1Mb broadband access a legal right for everyone. I made a lot of pictures, but at this point it's all just one huge practice so I won't be showing them all. Here are three I almost like. Hope you like, thanks for looking and any feedback is of course welcome.

Warzone: 3000
Soldier, ruined city on the background and two spaceships. Around half an hour. Gimp. It's not detailed but I hope you like the mood or something.





Brint It
Full of hate and pride, a warrior descents deeper into the lair of the beast. Holding tightly to his magical sword, he believes he is ready to face anything that should lurk deep in the shadows of the old tomb. Hence the name. Gimp+mouse, around 3 hours, no reference. Oh and sorry for the blue hair, I couldn't help it. I promise I will do plenty of standard blackish hair in the future.





Connection: Lost
Spaceship facing some weird apparition. Gimp+mouse around 2 hours. Could use some more fanciness but I got tired of it.

The last one is the best but could do with something in front of it to give it some context. Something like silhouettes of rocks and stuff.

Greetings!

Thanks a lot for feedback, Nux!

A few little speedpaints (5minutes - 1hour) - right click and "Open Image" this forum won't let it show in full res





Dragon and Knight (too difficult for me, I admit, but some parts are OK)




This stage I'm in now is sort of hard, because I see most of mistakes I make but I'm not technically efficient enough with Gimp and mouse to correct them all in sane time. So I don't really like anything I make, but I sure love practicing. Thanks for interest and have a nice day.

The knight is ok, the dragon looks a bit like the cross bread between a dragon and a dragonfly.

Amazing! It's funny if you look at your original pics and compare them to these ones.

You know what you should do? You should do artwork for some of these tremulous maps instead of having an in-game screenshot when loading.

I also realize that this is the internet, but even more so this is the forum for a video game on an internet, then even beyond that this is TREMULOUS forums the Satan version of all video game forums for a video game that is ON the internet.

Thanks for nice reactions all, really encouraging! Just the kind of motivation I need to hear at this stage.

As for the Tremulous artwork, I'm more thinking about a wallpaper (battlesuit in the middle, next to him 2 soldiers, they are all in the cave, outside the cave there is plenty of bugs [soldiers can't yet see them, but they are with guns ready as if they knew] - some sort of harsh desert planet) - Any suggestions welcome

Thanks a lot Nux, Demolution and everyone else for comments!

today's fun in Gimp (You can't really take it as a picture, I was just fooling around trying stuff I normally wouldn't) Two speedpaints combined, then adding details and effects. (and snake, erm) Right click and "open image" for full view should you wish.






I will probably be doing a Tremulous wallpaper, but I don't want to promise anything quite yet. If you'd like that, I'd love to hear some suggestions, such as what should it portray and how.
