Here is my vision on Master & Servant.
Pretty,sexy and dangerous girl with her
servant - "Tender Beast". Not finished
yet. :)

[Jack Youngblood]

Nice quality to your drawing. Good to see how it develops.

[Slav]

really good concept.

the female has a kind of comic feel to it... very cartoony in contrast to the creature... i think as of how it looks now its too early to tell but i hope it flows better when you start blocking out the colors.

:thumbsup:

[grf]

Hey, sweet sketch! Good sense of depth. I like the head on the beast. Feels solid. Keep it up!

Anover version. I think this girl looks beter.

[walrus]

Nice drawing! This should look really nice when you start coloring it. (Not that it doesn't now! :) ) Good luck with it!

[andreasrocha]

Great work...you really seem to know what you're doing. It looks promising!

[elixir]

Great line art! Really has a sense of mass and depth. Your drawing has a good measure of confidence in it. Looking forward to seeing this developed.

:)

[igorstshirts]

I'm liking this as well.

[keko]

Great drawing. I like the moster character. nice design . Also the woman character is very nice. look forward to see color, best of luck

[Dulshad03]

Nicely done!
great line and shade work.
:twisted::cool:

[arLutiK]

Wow very nice style, very Borish. Great work :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Finaly I starting with colors.Fill basic
characters with primary colors & add some shadows and lights.

[W-I-L]

wowoyou rline work was excellent and the design of the beast is really really nice... can not wait for more. i have nothing to crit, but only have question.. what are you going to do with the background? if anything . . .

[SavageCreature]

Very classic. Like Vallejo crossed with Wrightson. (two of my favorites, so it's a good thing :thumbsup: ) I must admit, though the woman you've started to color is fine, I actually liked the first one better. Her stance and the fact that she was armed sort of made you wonder which one was the beast, even if it was easy to see which one was ugly. In any case, I'm lovin it and will be waiting to see how it progresses.

c

[Maidith]

Great sketches you've done. :) I envy your anatomy skills...
The coloring looks good so far. Just a little nitpick: The shading beneath her breasts looks a bit too "black" to me, which makes it look quite artificial. I'd suggest you to remove the black shading from your initial sketch and make it a skintone shade instead... maybe a bit blueish or purple-ish from the reflection of her dress.

[Dulshad03]

Aww, crap this is too good to insult.

Oh yeah what are going to do for the background?
Well whatever it will be, my thaught is making it between forest and desert and mountains. (just a thaught)

[artjunkie]

VERY impressive illustration skills! And the paints are coming along great! Nice comic book-ish style to the artwork. Great pose for the woman and I especially like the beast design.

Keep going... oh, and I also am wondering what will you do with the bg. (tee hee)

Cheers!

[ganta]

it' some kind of "boris valejo"
i like ur art.
keep it up :drool:

i'll keep an eye on ur work!

[Vectorius]

OH MY GOD!!

Sketchs were great..Color WIP is going good!! just a detail..maybe add some dribble to the creature..:)

[MoodyDog]

I like the beast! its look so very lifely and brutal...
Go on, and can't wait for more...

[Samuraikuroi]

Privet, Smyk! I like the pencils very much. And the colors are good. What type of background did you have in mind? :thumbsup:

My Master & Servent (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?t=226306&page=1&pp=15)

[RealCapri]

Nice work :thumbsup: Very fearsome creature u have..

[FutureTense]

This is a really gorgeous piece. The design is really fantastic and the color is wonderful. I really enjoy how calm the lass is considering she's got a very powerful and fearsome beast on the end of a very short rope. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of brush do you use to get those fantastic grey tones, as well as the color? I really look forward to seeing the rest of this piece.

[kornel]

Amazing... this drawing is one of the best in this comp! - for me...

keep posting

cheers: Kornél

[calisto-lynn]

yum! she s hot! put nipples under the chlothes.:)

[J2XA]

Wow, great work, put a background to it, finish it and i think we have a contender for the cover!! You kept it succient and classic yet bold and i think thats the type of thing that makes the cover (If they do a book, which they probably will)

Keep up the good work and good luck

(Feel Free to comment on my thread :) )

[nebezial]

i love it, for now i cant really crit cause u r working on it and i dont know where u r taking it, but ill be back, keep it up:thumbsup:

[fensterer]

Very cool beasty you got there! I also like that you changed the girl from holding a gun to a more nurturing figure. I think that it's a much better contrast to each other! Nice work!

[Smyk Vitaliy]

Thank you guys for your comments. Good luck you all !!!

[LonTree]

well pal =)
as always, great stuff. what i especially like is that your work looks stylish even at the very beginning
respect!

It`s just a color variation but not finaly.

[JimmiMak]

I can't really make my mind up on this one:surprised:

Don't get me wrong.. I like the concept... makes a change from people sitting on the shoulders of a troll or similar:rolleyes: .

The dilema I face... is deciding if I want to see more detail in the woman... or less detail in the beast:shrug: ...

I like the DC.comics feel of the woman... but I also like the detail and the fine short fur effect on the beast...

Grrr... I'm probably gunna lose sleep now lol:twisted:

If I have to choose... I would say put more into the female... but keep it nice and simple... the contrast should be evident between the two parties in this pic.

Looking forward to the next update

Jimmi:thumbsup:

[Nigel-Q]

this is looking great. lovely drawing style and the colours are shaping up nicely.

More detailed Beast head. Feedback please

[Cregar]

WOW... this is looking great :) I love the design of the beast.

[kornel]

Your beast is very impressive! (and she's brest too :thumbsup: )

cheers: Kornél

[spacesnail]

Oh yeah this looks like sweet:love:
Maybe some kind of saliva in the beast's mouth : think about all those guys peeping your delicious sexy kitty He He He
Nothin to crit by now:buttrock:

[BaronImpossible]

Very well rendered beast and woman, both in terms of form and colour. Two things, though ~

1) You seem to have gone straight into the detail on the beast without fully defining its musculature. As a result, its body looks a little cardboardy (although its head is superb)

2) Thin vertical spires (your background) don't suit this piece, they break up the tension and fluidity of the creature and overall make the picture appear very static. Personally I'd go for much chunkier, semi-diagonal rock formations slanting right-to-left to contrast with the position of the lead, but that's just a suggestion. I'd also put a bit of solid landscape in the background and try to integrate it a little more with the foreground, otherwise it may end up looking a bit like a stage backdrop.

Really good job! :D

[LonTree]

'ssup, i like the choice of the background! some alien rocks yo got there, they stack up nicely and correspond to the beast type,
maybe it's a small thing, but it seems that the background and the foreground and lit differently

[Smyk Vitaliy]

At last time i`m working on Beast and replaced background.

[LonTree]

AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!
***k me!

[Nata]

Nice concept, as well as the Beauty and her Beast! I like the lines but you should add some reflex colors to gain a better imaging volume. Best wishes! :thumbsup:

YYEEAAAHH!!:thumbsup: your beast is looking better and better!! Great details!! The background start to look great.. Come back see your evolution soon..

Good luck:)

[MaZzuk]

I like it) good work!)

[LonTree]

come to think about it, Baron was right about the back. the new back is holding the picture together really well.
though the front piece of rock on the old back gave an idea about some deserted or cursed land, and now it all looks much more cheerful. changes the mood alot, heh =)
maybe adding some shading to the beast's collar? right now it's floating a bit

i'll love the final work, maaan =)

[FutureTense]

I'm really liking the new collar design. I'm a little less confident on which background I like better, they're both quite good, but give two different feels to the peice. In the first background with the collums the piece seemed darker and more foreboding with the girl as being the "out of place" element. The new background is much more serene and it is now the monster that is "out of place." I think focus also shifts more from girl to monster in the change of the background. It's looking really great, and only continues to become more detailed and fantastic. Awesome work.

[Agent-Orange]

Looking good!

I like the feel and mood the color scheme gives. This allows the beast to "look" like it is in its natural enviroment.

I will have to agree with Baron Impossible on the beast. You should define the structure more before putting in details.

[walrus]

The rendering in this is really beautiful so far. and I really like the new background that you've put in. Nice work!


The new version of the beast's ribs and torso feel more unbelieveable to me than the previous versions. The top of the ribs beels like it's makde of stone, the bottom half like it's mechanical, like something H.R. Giger would design. Neith texture matches the head of the creature well, or parts like the more-legs with those great veins.

But you still have plenty more you want to do, I'm sure... Good luck!

-mike

[fensterer]

This is coming together nicely. The beast is coming along really good! The background looks like it's going to be beautiful! Keep going!:thumbsup:

[arkinet]

wow, great looking beast dude, your background is great, but I dont know if its appropriate for your M&S, looks like they just pose there for a pix, I'd suggest somehting dark or chilling to reflect the beastly servant, dont be offended dude, but thats just me & you can ignore this if you like.. overall grade A+

[Smyk Vitaliy]

Thank you all guys! Your comments realy important for me. I will keep an eye on it.
Best wishes you all.

[lutzw]

Hi Smyk.

IMHO you took the right decisions for your painting. Good idea of just forgetting the gun, it seems to be such a clichée. And the new background lends a more spacious feeling to the piece without drawing away the attention too much. One thing came to my mind: maybe it could make up for a better story, when there'd be some kind of vessel on the lake or at the shore? Dunno, maybe it would imbalance the composition again...

I would definitely take a second glance at the lighting and the play of shadows. Right now the light seems to be indefferent, coming from "everywhere" and leaving not too much shadows.

Good luck,
:) <- Lutz

[sirBS]

Good концепт, though all traditional...
I too would advise to pay attention to a background, on the sky.
While it not expressive enough.
I wish good luck.

[GhostInTheMachine]

very good. i like the attitude of the beast and its design. your master also shows feeling but i think this could be worked on. gl

[Kamjar]

nice theme, and very well done till now. I like the colors, and your texture work.
Also good job on the master :O , damn, somebody got to learn me this anatomy stuff! :(


anyway, good luck! :)

Cheers Kam

Hi all.I hope this dress is that what you like :) Cheers :)

[LonTree]

great new back... it looks now like this: the upper part is very thinkful, and works excellent with the calm girl. the lower part, rocks and staff, are closer to brutal life of the beast. a great contrast between two moods.

this work doesn't simply look good, but also implies some idea and meaning beyond it. sure lots of details to come, but even now i love it.

'luck!

[demonicoz]

Its Beautiful mate, absolutely stunning. Good work my friend, now get the rest of it looking as good. Cant wait to see it finished, Good luck!

[dloots]

Awesome work, Lontree is right the contrast is excellent.

Work in progress. Nothing to add.

[Squibbit]

fine pic u got there, dude

those grassy rocks look great

and hoorey for yet another set of boobs :D :thumbsup:

[ms@zx]

very clean rendering.welldone for the body texture on the beast.i can feel the bump here:scream:
keep up the great work:)

[Jezzarts]

They make a lovely couple! :) Seriously, those textures look real nice and good job on the masters outfit. I'd like to see more of a story here but this rocks either way.

[abourabe]

WOW very nice artwork ! I cant wait to see the final image .

[moonspell]

very good job, in particular, I like a lot how you worked out
the texture of the wild creature.
good luck!!! :thumbsup:

[TMArtist]

Hi! Great work! I really like the dress. It really conveys the woman's form quite nicely. :)
Best of luck!

Regards,

[agios]

love you caracters, especialy the beast...i think you need to work a little the clouds and the background...very nice job...good luck

[kornel]

Very high quality work Vitaly! congrats!

-but from where comes the sunlight? To the beast from right, to the dress from opposite, and to the face? It is a bit strange for me...
-and the background is a bit too desaturated...? (at the moment)

keep painting

best regards: Kornél

(sorry for my poor english)

[LonTree]

i just hope you have the time to make everything you want to make here... i have faith in you soldier!
:thumbsup:

[ewb513]

I like the beast rendering much better than the girl, but you did well changing her position and look. It's pretty classical now and I love it. Once more, the beast has a super aspect. Well done!

[xric7]

nice coloring.:thumbsup:
cool characters.i love the beast a lot.

I know it`s time to finishing , but i have some time :)

[Vectorius]

OH yeah man that's awesome!!:eek: the beast textures look so beautiful!! very good job man:thumbsup:

Maybe try to add a green rubi on the beast colar..like the woman one..in order to accentuate yet the beast soumission...

Good luck!:)

[Tariq12]

WOW ! I love this piece. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :applause:
Good luck in the final mate.

aha, i see lots of work done. cool lighting! i dunno, it seems the beast is ready. i like the stripes, they are on place.
i wish you had more time =)

[MDN67]

this is a very nice pic, the paining of the master is very good and i like the servant, good work

[MLongfield]

I like this image, especialy the way you handled the light and shadow. The leather outfit on the woman looks very realistic. The only crit I have is that the belt looks unfinished. Perhaps add some shadows to break apart the segments a little better? Other than that, this is an awesome pic!

Good luck!

[anostudio]

Very goood work:thumbsup: .... just small comment about the light source? :rolleyes:

but it very nice I like it ... good luck:bounce:

I have little more time cause it not done yet. Good luck you all !!!

[LonTree]

as my pal here comments, she lacks nipples showing under this tight dress =)
i like the new collar, but inho i still feel it could use some shading on the left side - contrasts too much against shaded beast skin right above it
it seems like you've added some contrast, i really don't know how to put it... the contrasted beast looks more arcade compared to the background, so to say.
...[thinking]...
aaah, forget it =) seriously man, i love this work. it must get a prize, i put my trust in you =)respect!
:applause:

---
what i especially like is that we can see the master-servant relation in two ways - the gentle hand petting the beast, and on the other side, firm tight hold on the beast's lead

Outstanding piece seriously!:thumbsup:

[VisualKing]

Is it just me feeling like some people got robbed? I like Antropus, but his latest work should not have won in my opinion. There are so many other entries here that should have won, but i think sometimes a well established or known artist around the cg community can probably lean judges toward those who are most known to win the contest. Its almost like being in high school where the popular kid gets to be king on prom night except the judges are behind closed doors. I think the best thing would be to have a "VOTE" to decide who wins. A vote from everyone would probably be better than just having those judges pick out what they like.

This piece here is really well done. Nice colors and design. I am wondering will there ever be a 2D winner? or everything goes to the 3D guru guys?

Sorry i don't mean to offend anyone, but i think some people got robbed on this latest challange.
