I really wonder why nobody is commenting your stuff?

Your reel is great, much inspiring for me
Was fun to see how you did the camrides

What i didnt liked that much is the outzoom rides, its like sitting in a train with the back to the driving direction :wink:

Hi, I liked your reel. It shows a varied range of talent from you. From paintings, to modelling to even dynamics. That I think is very good and at the same time your advantage. At the same time you also included a lot of variety in your works, shows your range.

However I have a few comments if you don’t mind:

  1. You somehow based a few of your works from HATCH FX, although thats not necessarilly a bad thing, but people ( and there are a lot) who knows tend to compare. That is not what you want, since obviouslly Hatch’s work is simply amazing.

  2. Some of your works had incomplete patches on it and it looks very sketchy, a few also had a few stretching. Again a not necessarilly bad thing, but placing that on a reel would only pull down all the hard word you did. Supervisors can really be picky when it comes to mattepainting.

  3. Most mattepaintings are boring, lets face it. So images like set extensions or real world mattes would also be very good to see. If you could provide that, your in it man.

Hopefully this won’t let you down. Like i said your works are great, just giving you a few tips so that you won’t make the same mistakes that I did. :smiley:

Cheers man!

I like the stuff you have done, I agree with Eric above.

A couple more real world mattes and you will get people knocking on your door.

Also I like the calligraphy of your written language on your site it is mesmerising.

Thanks for sharing, I do look forward to seeing more.

Nice work, though the camera moves and parallax is a little extreme :slight_smile:

wow,after more than a week finally i got some reply on my post.they are all very helpful to improve my quality in mattepainting.beside i really like mp,i have been progressing my site for 2 years,I m very inspired with the technic only by hatchfx,so i try to explore myself and need ur comments,beside not many tutorial for complex cammap technics,i will note that in the future could be coming on my works for more realistic world mp,this one is more fantasy look as i ve posted on vfxtalk.maybe set extension is a plus.
Basically traditional painting is my survival so far than mp cuz no vfx industries around.wish i still have more power to create more variousity in my mp-reel.
