I totally feel your pain Capt. Fred.

Here is another unicorn. I'm doing these sketches to work out ideas for this painting I want to do for my mother for her birthday. She loves unicorns.

I have been watching this thread off and on ever since the first version. I can always count on it for inspiration. I hope no one minds if I start contributing every now and then. I won't say on a ...

Man! That's the most blaitent rip off I've seen yet. He didn't even erase out your name very well, sheesh! So what can you do when someone does this? Does the fact that he's in a different countr ...

Another thing that might help is to use construction lines to set your vertical and horizontal axis. I know I have had to overcome distortion problems as well and I found this to be a big step in doi ...

Thanks Lunatique. I'll try that.

Thank you Mon and Socar. That is definatly something to keep in mind when printing from the computer. But if I'm going to be just working in black and white, I will most likely just use ink and wash ...

I am looking to submit some work to some gaming companies notably White Wolf. In the submissions guide they specify that they want work with a lot of tone variatin and detail but at the same time the ...

Hey, that's pretty cool. It's actually very similar to the way I do it. Only I paste the line art into a new chanel and invert the image and then load it as a selection and fill. It's about the sam ...

Sounds like your just talking about practice inwhich case it's not only acceptible it's expected as just part of the learning process. Just don't put it in your portfolio.

Yeah, white gouache and brush is the most common way to go. I wouldn't advise jel pens as they don't seem to work consitantly nor can you vary the look of your mark too well.

I hold my pencil between the tips of my thumb and index finger. It's become such a comfortable hold that I write like that now as well. But the stylis too large to control like that so I hold it in ...

Yeah, the pic is dark. Like I said I had no planning going into this. I was just matching the tones to an an old photo. But due to the advice here, I will give careful consideration to value range ...

I welcome any feedback Especially from you matte painters out there. While it wasn't my intention to do a totally photorealistic piece or a matte painting for that matter, I was still going for the ...

Thank you VERY much, Socar.

Does anyone know how to find out when the next competition is taking place? Is there a website, mailing list or phone number? Or do they mention it in the previous edition?

Thank you

You seem to hinting that you are somewhat disapointed in these works. How could they be better? I sure can't tell.

As you all can probably guess, I altered a photo for the background. I'm lazy. Daredevil done with dry brush on card stock. He ...

Very nice work, indeed worthy of a portfolio piece. I would suggest though that the hole in the sky is a bit sharp around the edge and the volume light could be a bit more intense given the surroundi ...

OOPS! Did not know that Embarassed

Most often AC/DC or Lenny Kravitz. But also a Star Wars soundtrack is good too.

I didn't notice if anyone else mentioned this or if you already know about The Mill but you could try there? And I don't know but does Disney still have a matte department?

I like those depcitions of Electra.

And that animation is superb Anthony!

I sure hope she's wearing the red scarf in the Daredevil movie.

Blackpool's dead (not that I expect anyone to recognise me Smile

)thanks to that piece of shit that was the previos forum. Oh, well, I like this new name better. It's more personal Smile
