Okay, that Chun Li is incredible.

I'm eating soup right now, and when I got to that image my mouth hung open and some soup dribbled down my chin. :/

bengal · Posted: Sun Jul 20, 2003 10:58 pm

texta>> nope, i use photoshop only to change sometimes final color balance and to get a good jpeg in the end ; but all the color is made with painter 7, and the sketch first pencilled on white paper...

thx!! :)

Some of these I haven't seen, very refreshing colors, and your girls are always appealing. Great work, you.

I love these. The characters are really interesting. People I'd like to get to know... the type of characters that would draw me in to a story.

But I'm especially moved by the sense of grandeur that the "outdoor" shots create. The way you've composed the image makes me think there must be a lot going on that just isn't in frame. Again, it makes me want to know more about the scene depicted.

wow - I have only one thing to say:

STELLAR!!

I love it - keep it coming.

Awesome stuff, the colours are great and the compositions are really good. I really like the looseness of all the line work as well, top stuff.

eyewoo · Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2003 5:54 am

WOW... your work is so together! wonderful!

thank you very much, really. i'm quite happy you enjoyed the line art, it's not easy to find a place on sijun amongst such killer digital painters.

thx, really.

mmmmm, the cafe is sooo good. i really love that piece. i wish you sold prints of it because id have one on my wall.

Question... what tools do you use in painter? im trying to get the blendy, low opacity (or is it low resaturation?) effects that you have in some of these paintings, like the blending of the half cylinder with the water and feet, and the circle in the joint of the robot, and im achieving it, but only marginally so, with acrylics and a blender. im sure theres a better way.

bengal · Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2003 1:14 am

ikaika>> i mainly use liquid tools ; not watercolor!! :) thx!

dsoul>> well, i guess borrowing it is not a problem... except that having my 'own style' (may i say) allows me to have a job and get well paid, so please don't steal it too much! ;)

all>> thanks!

Man, you have just a wonderful style... in my opinion i wouldn't have any idea of how to improve it without kinda destroy it.

This warm and gentle art... seems that is something just a frenchman can do... *sight*[/img]

flushgarden>> i'll take that for a compliment!! thanks mate! :D you'll be in my links soon, i have not to forget.

qin & badoli>> i really hope i will improve, i'm not old enough to stop evolving!!! LOTS of balance issues to learn, focus and colors, i'm FAR from good i think. but i enjoy doing my stuff, i guess that's the main thing to have! :) thank you!
