Wow. I was away for a day or two and a ton of feedback pours in!

In order of appearance:

Transcendent: I have to agree... this piece is definately too monochromatic. I attempted a couple of times ...

Ok I'm fixing the links now... having trouble with my FTP site... :P

Okay... this is the end. I'm at a point with this painting where I'm fighting with mistakes I made a long time ago. I'm just going to call it done, take what I've learned, and move on to another pie ...

Faustfx: Could you describe the process you use when developing the little color pallete that you show off to the right?

How do you choose colors and what purpose does it serve to pre-mix them?

I have to agree about the plane. perhaps I'll scatter it some more and add some broken pieces laying about.

Thanks,

What the?

Wow... I dunno when that "sun moon" thing showed up... I think I just accidentally hit the sky with a big brush. That will probably be gone in the next version.

Doh.

Thanks for the feedb ...

Back again with another installment of the bridge from hell... or at least from a destroyed LA... which could arguably be hell but thats another topic.

Ahem. On with the show.

If I learned one usef ...

I'm really disapointed in the direction photoshop is taking these days. They seem to be focusing on wizards and gizmos and other useless crap (as if web graphics are the only thing anyone uses photos ...

I was just wondering who moderates these boards? Daily I see the most stupid irrelivant posts. (like the declare war on some other board one...) Why is this stuff not being deleted and the users wa ...

You know... I'm suddenly drawn back to the sheridan days when my life drawing teacher told us to do "many bad drawings".

I think one of the reasons Spooge does such nice work is that he does a LOT of ...

Joachim:

Nope it was all done with a wacom in Photoshop... I think i went too detailed too soon.

I'm planning on a major paint over very loosely (though I'm scared) to liven up the colors and adjust ...

It's pretty small, only 400 x 230. I double sized it in the preview images so it would be easier to see.

Aquamire:

I think it could work with lighter images if you were to fill the bg with a middle light color and then load the black as a selection and fill it with a middle tone and then work darker and ...

I agree with plant. I have a heck of a time choosing colors that are the corect value for a given stroke.

What kind of color palette do you use? Or so you just use the picker?

Yeah I'm sorry about the "Paint like Craig" title but this really is a quest to improve myself (and others) not a quest to be just like Craig. I doubt it's possible to be just like him anyway... His ...

Well, I don't really want to paint exactly like Craig. I just respect his ablity to accurately sketch the light / form in a scene and still stay loose and energetic.

I love pixel art too. I think it ...

Heya a few quick responses.

immi:
No problem. I really wanted to start a dialogue based on my experiences. At the same time I hope I can improve my art. My work has always been critisized as being ...

Heya all.

For those of you who missed my first post heres the recap. I'm starting with black and white masses as a way of working towards a full color matte painting.

Here's step 1:

I have to agree 100%.

Anyone can learn software in a matter of weeks. Becoming a good artist takes years (if not a lifetime).

All the big animation houses look for a strong traditional portfolio fi ...

Wow, thanks to all of you for the great feedback! A few quick responses:

Liquid!
There were a lot of areas that I was just dying to put middle tones into. http://www.sijun.com/dhabih/ubb/smile.gif ...

Heya all (and heya Craig if you read this). Ok the title was just a cheap trick to get you in here... I have no idea how to paint as well as Craig but I did want to share my journey trying to get to ...

Francis:

Those are Beluga whales. Well at least beluga whales as best as I can remember them as I try to force myself to paint without reference.
