Description Well there we go, my first piece for the rage expo, took a different approach and mindset to this piece, focused on a few other things and i guess it payed off
this one took quite a bit of time
and for the first time in a very long time im actually happy with how something turned out

i guess this is the new standard gonna be tricky to keep this up

Great Image, just enough fine detail that the more painterly brushy areas don't make it look unfinished. That in itself is a testement to your skills, this is the only piece of yours I have seen or commented on. So I cannot say as to how awesome your other work is but its obvious you have a great deal of skills.

My only question is why didn't you finisht he plates on the pants? Was it to not bring the eye from a focal point, or...?

Hey thanks for the compliment, and to the question yea, if I over render, certain things, it will take away the focus on the focal point
Although i do think that i could have given it more work but, i kind of ran out of time i guess.

Great rendering, creates a good sense of size and movement. If I can suggest one thing it'd be to make the light inside the monster a different color than what's behind it, as it makes it look like we're seeing through the monster

I love the roughness in texture that everything has here. I like the lighting and contrast as well. Good stuff.

Reminds me of Gaia from God Of War.

RaymondMinnaar In reply to WhitneyCook [2013-11-12 16:03:53 +0000 UTC]

thanks,Β Β  yea im trying to reinvent some of the things i do when painting so art is starting to look a bit more difficult

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

WhitneyCook In reply to RaymondMinnaar [2013-11-12 16:08:00 +0000 UTC]

Well that's okay. When things get more difficult because we're 'reinventing' or learning new styles and techniques, it means we're growing.

So that's always a wonderful thing.

The struggles help define renewal.Β 


Just keep at it.
