awesome sketches so far guys. Really like the lighting and colours in calisto's and the depth and ambience in CodeNothings. Wish I could paint like that.:)

CodeNothing, that is intense! Plus, I didn't expect it so it really made an impact. My favorite so far!

It's good to see you again, calisto. Beautiful sketch you got there.

OMG neatron i love it SOTW from me there
Although a lil crit the right hand guy in the front looks a little unnatrual compared to the rest of the image. Another note how do you get that awesome texture?


picnica thats a cool concept and you got it

there is a lot of good stuff in this one so far, and they are so wide in subject matter

mine is pscs2 about 2 hours, i didnt do it all the way through so i am not sure and C+C would be great. I might go back and paint in detail since i like the composition

ransom thanks, i removed the guy on the right i think you're right, it was throwing the composition off. as for textures i use Barontieris brush pack alot (visit www.barontieri.com) but mostly hard round brush with opacity and flow set to 50% that will give you a natural painted look with broad range of midtones.

I haven't had time to really focus on keeping up with the DSF, but I figured I needed to do something for this topic, since it was my suggestion.

So, here's a pencil sketch I messed with a little in Photoshop CS2.
I forgot to time myself, maybe a 1-2 hours, I really don't know.

Very nice sketches, everyone!

Inspirational as always, Britanny.

Here's my rendition of Scheherazade kindling the king's imagination through one of her many spellbinding stories:

Naetron- Yea, I didnt wan't to go out and say that since these forums do not seem to be heavy on the C+C (which we should change) but, I compleatly agree.The updated version looks much better.

Notice how the two tents on the sides and the third tent in the middle lead your eye into the main character. What i find interesting is that this upside down pyramid is the flipping the structured look of the classical pyramid composition, and it builds a lot of tension. Also, I percieve the man character to be a look out by his body gesture, and the other guy, "Mr. Right, didn't seem to be doing the same action as the scout. Awesome job!!


Those brushes are really nice, I dl-ed them

Nice work everyone!

Well, I was planning to finish this in one go, but life got in the way.
I worked on it in several short bursts, so no telling how much time I spend on it.
But definitely a couple of hours. PainterIX.
