Colors! is fun and all, but you're obviously a pro. I truly hope you're not wasting all your hours on a 3.5 inch 3DS screen. That said, however, we truly appreciate you sharing us your work! :)
Thanks a lot guys. @DrewDraw: Yes, multiple references - an old engine, and various ships. @Graviteur: I'm not a pro, I paint in my spare time. On canvas, in Photoshop, on the DS - it's all the same to me... certainly never a waste, if I'm being creative and exploring ideas. Cheers. :)
Come on Munin stop being modest you are and always will be one of the grand masters of colors someone I certainly look up to and have followed since my first drawings, your detail, lighting and textures are second to none and this is just pure art fav+1 :)*
@Lylo & Micky: You are embarrassingly kind. If my work means something to someone else, then I cannot think of a more rewarding reason to keep scribbling. Thanks, guys. Oh, and Micky... hope your bones are healing nicely and we can see you back to it soon. :)
Incredible. The style and concept are right up my alley,and executed in such a way that it looks like it's cocept art from a AAA game. Great wind effects.
Witch games company you working for? Are you working for Retro Studio?!!! hehehe cause artwork like this you sure are in the games industry or the movies industry....
Still just crazy Drawing again!!! love all your work!!!
Again, I really appreciate all your encouragement. Thanks a lot folks. @Mikejitsu: A4 Inotus 3, but I am upgrading this month. @Botelluki: If you log in via the internet, you can view a few Steampunk images in my gallery I've done on the old DS. @Chris3D: Hugin's brother. Also my brush name ;) @iGreg: Haha... just working on my own stuff at the moment. :) @Master Wolf: The movie playing in my head right now. :)
I died because i learned I'm a fail I should put more effott he should also try making s e x y ladies XD no I'm serious DO IT. DRAW IT for a mature audiance
Is it taking off or landing? Very cool I'd love to see you try your hand at a locomotive full of rebels toting ak's like the guys from your other painting. It would be cool with an anti-airship cannon behind or on top of the engine...I look at your paintings and I have a story that ties them all together in my mind. I would love to see you collab with Senco and make some steampunk vehicles riddled with graffiti, you guys coul make a new genre urban-steampunk. Check him out your styles compliment eachothers, also check me out too and tell me what you think about my ideas, thanks for the great art!
Much appreciated, dudes. @Dark Artists: I almost always use references to pull inspiration from, or to understand some form or function. For this one I obviously looked at old sailing ships and engines.
@Dark Artist: References are a major help to artists. As long as you don't rely on them too much, they can help you solve many problems, and a well stocked reference folder can be a huge source of inspiration for anything from lighting situations, colour palettes, compositions, texture... you name it. I don't copy 1 for 1 (unless I'm doing a study)... It's all about how you use reference. Try painting a figure from imagination with a two point light source with some degree of accuracy. I doubt there are many professional artists with that innate ability. ;)
I can't beleive I found you! You made sample paintings for Colors! 3D. If you tap Extras at the title screen, there are 6 sample paintings in 3D and they are all made by YOU!
