heres some pictures I did for fun. They arent anything special but I like them.

This picture is, I dont know just a picture I guess. I couldnt get the girl to look any less gothic, which was NOT my intention. I messed around with her for along time but she still looks gothic. Anyways, is there anything I could do to improve the colors of this? I got stumped on the girl.

Heres a picture inspired by Craigs Tarzan picture. I didnt want to lose the mood he had so I basicly added the same stuff he did. I guess you can call it fanart? I really like how this picture came out, to bad its not 100% original.

The bottom pic is sweet. Very moody. Reminds me of the Tarzan redo Spooge did.

Wow! great stuff...
I haven't seen craigs pictures but may I suggest that you should add some mor light on the clouds and ground on the top image? Or maybe you don't want it to be like that...
Whatever hehe...kepupthegoodwork!

Hi there!

I like that picture which is below. It's moody... very nice posture. It reminds me of Isric's last piece.

The rain looks quite nice too, but the water itself is a bit off I think. Looks like it wasn't finished yet.

The moon on the upper picture looks a bit strange.

These a nice tho.

thanks, any ideas on fixing the highlights on the girl?

Shousetsu: Regardless of what you were going for with the first picture, I like it like this.

balistic: no see she's sad cause the grave she wanted to visit weakened the cliff face and fell into the hole.

thanks, I added more yellow to her and got rid of the black outlines. I kind of improves it. Make sure you press reload because its the same image file.

Very moody images. You would proabably be interested in this guy:

Caspar David Friedrich

Search around for some of his stuff on the net.(http://www.oir.ucf.edu/wm/paint/auth/friedrich/) might be a start. His suff has much of the same mood as these two pics - His colors are great examples.

Must be hard to bury someone on an outcrop like that

Nice stuff.

These are just my thoughts. On the top pic, my eyes keep going back the moon...and it just seems like something is off. It's almost like it's pushing into foreground.

Quite awesome work, Shousetsu. Powerful mood in both, especially the second.

You're right, the woman in the first picture looks a tad goth, I think what she needs is a little beige/orange (very subtle) on her skin to suggest she's not a vampire. The moon in the former also looks awkard. A little work there would be useful.

The second picture is perfect. No critique.
