ended up trying to make something a bit tighter than usual, blocking out form and playing with texture - youll see I relied heavily on my ref (http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/6712/venicebridgeofsighs844vz2.jpg) and yea a 1point perspective is pretty weak, but its the first time ive used a perspective grid.

Long time without drawing, took me my sweet time to do this one...
Trying to force myself to be more "solid" and saturated than usually

Eurayo - I really like the organic feeling of your pic
Medhi, Embryotic, Wexter, Danielh, Gulkan and DAw, impressive works !

[embryotic]

Aelwine - thats brilliant! Im in awe of you!
Daniel68 - great expression - the angle looks quite telescopic lens?
Eurayo - beautiful fantasy look!
Daw - scary technology - it will destroy us all!!
Gulkan - very calm - but how did you do that great paintery look in ps? Layer style emboss?
wexter - nice colours and great atmosphere
Nelius - challenging angle man
Medhi - great colour variation - your final work is a great step from your 50min one - nice decisions!
paolodelarosa - a classic bridge! - it just screams DANGER!
Robertt - :surprised I think telemaco would like your quirk for this one! good original thought - I like the colour patterns
El-Rodente - your sketch makes me feel warmth in the darkness
mitchelhunt - forgive my intrusion :D - but I think that overall your pictures show 'loneliness with a hope of freedom' - what do you think? - Im probably wrong,
republika - didnt want to leave you without a comment! - hmm 'dramatic' tell me what is the story behind that?

[gulkan]

daw, embryotic, aelwine - thank you for comments guys. Also to answer your question, embryotic;

it is a very simple process. I start with grayscale document and work out the forms with the standard PS "paint brush oval", set to multiply for dark values / normal or screen for light values. Then I create a new color layer to experiment with coloring possibilities. After that I combine these two layers and use the smudge tool with a simple custom brush to refine the forms and blend the colors. Finally go back to paint brush oval to add some sharpness/contrast here and there. Maybe put it through the sharpen filter couple times. that's all. does not work every time though. ;)

BTW check this.

more or less the same idea.

[mitchelhunt]

embryotic - Hmm...I've never realized that. Is that bad? Does it make me look like I have no personality? Aaah now im worried! :bounce:

[embryotic]

mitchelhunt - lol - man I dont know - but WOAH you're 10 years younger than me, so I was just commenting on how subliminally parts of your personality end up in your pictures - OMG what am I rambling on about.... ? anyway your sketches are beyond anything I did when I was 16

Gulkan - Cool! ill definitely give that a go - thankyou :)

[mitchelhunt]

embryotic - Hehe, well thanks :thumbsup:
