Sketches - Painting training

[RicoD]

Hmm, I see some Hyung Tae-Kim influences in that second one. His work is gorgeous, but you should remember that it's a stylisation of reality. There are some anotomical issues that don't look like a style choice. Doing lots of life studies will help. Most people do like 3 - 5 minute sketches. Those are actually great for getting comfortable with the human form.

Also, you seem to like Japanese and Korean styles. There's a manga workshop here. If you use the search option, I'm sure you'll find it. There are lots of tips in there, but remember: Style should be a choice.

In the second piece u must NOT use blue shadows, couse it's a character concept and it doesn't stack with gray background. U should use gray-black shadows there with a little infulence of reflected colours.
In the last one i think the neck is to bold.
Nice sketches, keep going! :applause:

I Made My Website like a kind of BLOG ( maybe not the best idea I had, but it's easier to post Pics )

You still have bad anatomy issues. Bad drawing skills are not a style.

You are inconsistent in your major skeletal foundataions. Shoulders are misshapen and misplaced. Elbows at different heights on the upper arms (often too high). Heads proportionally too small, features proportionally too large, particularly the eyes and mouths.

Your biggest visual dichotomy is the difference between upper and lower torsos. It is almost as if you dissect your subjects at the waist, and then enlarge the lower part of the body, and then smooth the connection. If this is your chosen "style," you should be aware that it is not an attractive one. That is why you often see the reverse in photo illustrations and art, with the head and upper body larger than the lower torso...

At present, you display a wonderfully creative imagination, with some really promising concepts and characters. But, if you do not tighten up your rendering skills to cleanly and consistently render these concepts, they will most likely end up as part of a large pile of "coulda beens." Your imagination is such, I doubt you will ever have a "dry spell" and need to dig up U.F.O.s (Un-Finished Objects) for material.

Work on your basic rendering skills, to better present your creations. They are VERY interesting and intriguing, but presently cannot quite hold up to their promise.
