[All i want for Tankmas?]

A beautifully warm scene on a cold night.

TheExtreamH responds:

thankyou

[FOXCLAW: Peacekeeper]

Love the dynamic angle you used! Fish eye can be hard to pull off.

Rochaku responds:

thank you! im glad you liked it

[Gunkpumper]

As a major Geiger bio-mechanical fan I very much enjoy this.

Maggot-Milk responds:

my man! thanks

[The Huntress claims her prey]

I like the line quality and contrast of this. I wont comment on the anatomy because it looks like you have an extreme stylization going on, but for the cloth work if you search "6 fold types every illustrator should know" you will find some great resources on how to make that look really good without a lot of work involved.

Dooffrie responds:

Okay! thank you.

[#roguestar]

Beautiful work! Loving the old style movie poster feel and the nice gritty airbrush texture.

eazay5000 responds:

Thank you!!

[First Boot]

Brilliant concept, the mood and environment setup is established perfectly, and I really get a sense that this has a story to it. A perfect example of the illustration style vs portraiture.

Havegum responds:

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate it!

[The Necromancer's Son]

This is a great example of a visual blending technique where the image is meant to be seen at a much smaller size then it is painted which of course is pretty much exactly what the industry demands of most illustrators. Your work on the creature and battleground are remarkable.

Where the piece falls flat is the castle's isometric design. Isometric perspective is a valid style and can produce some great effects especially when working in retro styles or rpg/adventure games. The issue here is that all the main focus of the work is on a more realistic perspective of the battleground and creature. Make sure you set up your points of perspective beforehand to avoid this. It's easy to make an organic shape look right in space without laying on points and lines, but geometric shapes tend to slip towards isometric views otherwise.

Jenou responds:

That's actually what I'm told more than anything else about this. I'll admit, organics are my strength, but do you think its not too late to go back in and fix the architecture? I havent touched this piece in a long time

[Welcome to the Madness]

...and thus Hank did say. "Hey Bro, do you even lift?"

Very nice color use!

ZaneZansorrow responds:

Thanks Artist-Lost! :3
