It's good man. Excellent use of Palette I think. Shading is good in some places, needs work in others. And Eyes and Mouth, but you knew that. On the whole the pretty damn good... better than me... I should start using my tablet again.
Mm, I couldn't be bothered to draw a proper face. It's a terrible habit of mine. :/ Eventually my dribs and draps of practice working on faces will actually get me somewhere. Thank you for the kind words! It's nice to know my practice is paying some level of dividends.
Poor guy needs eyes. Well, either that, or pull a Darkest Dungeon and make the shadow so violent that no eyes are ever drawn. :v
Anyhoo, doin' pretty good! One question though: Does the shield have a pointy top? Because if not, the perspective is waaaaaaaaay off. Also a bit of an odd pose on the legs, but i reckon that's a bit too late to fix now. Gotta say though, the folds on the pants are really good, so extra props on that!
Like I said, he does need eyes. Just imagine him like one of those horrifying mannequins some clothes shops have, where there are defined lips and a nose but just smooth plastic where the eyes should be.
And I retroactively ruled the shield to be pointy a couple of days ago, when I noticed the same thing...
Thank you, too, for the praise. I'm really proud of his left leg. It's omfortably my favourite part of the piece.
More specifically did i experiment to see if i could make thick lines and painty shading work together. I like it myself, but i don't know what the common consensus is. :U
i have no idea how to paint fur
I really dig it. The thick lines and high-contrast, heavy brush strokes work together well.
The best way to do fur IME is to shade lightly several times with a narrow brush. Might not be best though. vOv
And quick anatomy quibble, there should probably be a bit more of the back right haunch visible. Not a
huge amount, just a little.
Fakeedit: Ooh, Hugo, that is gorgeous. Are you modelling that yourself, or just placing them, or...?
Quick doodle to unwind before bed:
For which I constructed the somewhat pretentious flavour text
Our strongest and wisest go out into the sands, alone. They come back enlightened. They speak to us of our gods.
The weaker that go out… they, too, come back. But they can teach us nothing, save, perhaps how to mix fear and pity.
