Heyho I need feedback please!

[MasterStryke]

Hi People I buyed a graphic tablet 2 months ago and I need some feedback pls!

http://masterstryke.deviantart.com/


Thank you



/here a small preview pic

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Is it a snake or my lost tail?

Looks interesting.

 

[Volvox]

Looks very nice but the shading in he middle is kinda weird. Draw a light source before shading, that might help.

 

[Nudl9]

Ye the shading seems a bit confusing, but if im right it comes from behind slightly to the right. I like your style btw, keep posting some more please!

 

[MasterStryke]

kk, well here a cave, done with my special style ^^

Cave on summer -sketch by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

 

[Need_O2]

All are beyond godlike imo

 

[Volvox]

I love the choice of colors on that cave, it's plain awesome.

 

[bounty hunter2]

Nice work there, the cave is really nice.

 

[MasterStryke]

yeah the cave has a nice atmosphere

well here a drawing

[Nudl9]

Awesome art, really love it!

 

[MasterStryke]

thanks,

here a newer pic with nice light: Artefact: Living Spawn by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

 

[teh.fellow]

I like your style keep practicing, maybe also some othere pictures? they seem all a bit the same theme like pretty disgusting motives xD with out the cave. But they are nice made. gj so far

 

[MasterStryke]

ok, here 3 forest pics:

First Forest -speedpaint by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

Darkforest V2 by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

Dickicht -speedpaint by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

which do you prefer? ^^

 

[teh.fellow]

well i guess i prefer the second one but there would be also pretty much possibilities to improve it.
For exampel a slitly more detailed ground and in the midle silhouettes of branchs?

I know its not easy because you want to show the spectator the effect of looking in a pretty darf forest so the middle have to be dark, but i think at the border you could add some silhouettes of branch or something like that or?

The first one is also nice but i know the original one so it looses a bit originality for me or did you wanted just to do something similar with digital art? but also nice

 

[MasterStryke]

the idea with the branches is good, maybe I'll do it


some diverse pics,

the first 4 are new

 

[MasterStryke]

a new dark mecha pic !

[CombatTheWombat]

30 min speedpaint is amazing. I can't work fast for shit. Would take me 3 hours to turn somethin like that out.

 

[MasterStryke]

yeah thats a problem of the most artists.... otherwise it's no problem but well....



MY BEST PAINTED PIC TIL NOW: Skulltech by ~MasterStryke on deviantART


.

 

[Nudl9]

Hmm looks pretty cool, i like the reflections of the cyan light on the shiny metal.
I would recommend using references seeing that the anatomy of the skull is wrong.
Im not really into your style (its kinda photographic), but i have to say i love the details of your art.

 

[MasterStryke]

yeah thank you, I'll edit the teeth if I have time for it.
what do you say? is the reflection of the blue data right or wrong ?


ps: HP Lovecraft Concept: Shoggoth -concept by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

.

 

[~Void~]

Cool but uh... kinda boring style. That might just be me, though, but your technique isn't very original. No big deal, it looks good. And what the fuck kind of name is "Shaggoth"?

 

[MasterStryke]

well my technique is not very original, but do it like me! i dont think that you can paint a creature like this so...

but you are right, ive not found my real style (for digital stuff)... i hope that i find him soon.

(on paper with pencil i have a really special style and i am extremely fast)

and shoggoth is the name given by hp lovecraft. a pitty that you don't know his stories.

 

[MasterStryke]

kinda crazystyle: W7F by ~MasterStryke on deviantART

[need opinions!]

 

[Nudl9]

Hmm i would suggest you try add some humans forms into your artwork to make it more interesting.
The contrast between black and white makes it more organic aswell as the contrast between red and green.
I see that you also made the image vertically which makes it more exciting.
What i think you could try improve is using the Golden Ratio like this:

The blue lines indicate the use of the golden ratio.
Try place objects of interest into the crosses.

Personally i think you could try sharpen the lines and brush lines in your artwork, i dislike half-blurry lines in digital abstract art.

You could also try make your artworks more symbollic next time.

 

[MasterStryke]

yeah the point with the golden ratio is good, but this stuff with the symbolism... i ve heard that it's hard to do artwork if you force yourself to add symbolism

well i have a bunch of different new pics! just visit my gallery -> DAgallery

 

[Nudl9]

i ve heard that it's hard to do artwork if you force yourself to add symbolism

It is very true, especially when photographing.

 

[Deleted member 157129]

I like the style, I didn't have time to look at everything on your DA, but I like the Shoggoth concept! Keep it up mate.

update

a running and damaged mech

based on a alchemy sketch

 

[XenoStalker]

These are good. Better than mine (I use a mouse, getting tablet in a month I hope, http://xenostalker.daportfolio.com/ )

I can't wait for a tablet, seriously. Your work shows how much of an improvement they make as a mere tool!

 

[Nudl9]

Your hijacking the thread Xeno...

Stryke, could you get it in a larger version? kinda hard to give criticism with such a small image.

 

[Saken]

They're alright, but one thing that gets me, is that anyone can use a computer program or drawing tablet to make something that appeals to people, but not anyone can pick up an actual pencil, paint brush, or pen, and make something look good. You've made some good stuff, but have you ever tried making something with these mentioned tools? People would be able to respect and admire what you've made a whole lot better if you use something other then digital art techniques to create art.

 

[XenoStalker]

Your hijacking the thread Xeno...

Stryke, could you get it in a larger version? kinda hard to give criticism with such a small image.

Linking people to show them my work done with a mouse? Isn't this thread based on this dude getting a tablet?

I disagree with you. I was only showing the author of this thread my work for comparison. Nice accusation, however - please, find something better to do.

--

I also agree with Saken on some level. It is much easier on a digital program to erase and select colors on what not, and takes the joy of difficulty used in real life pictures where hundreds of colors are mixed together to get one result. Digital art does save paper, though!

 

[Saken]

Saves paper, but lacks real work.

 

[Nudl9]

Saken@It isnt neccessarily easier to draw with digital tools then it is with traditional tools. Theres both ups and downs with both ways. Pen and paper for example has the advantage of being alot easier to draw with, making it the most productive way of drawing.

 

[MasterStryke]

exactly, and yeah saken, I work with pencil often and i am not bad with the brush, i think i am better than anybody of my artclass with the brush.. whatever..

sorry for beeing inactive for so long time, but i tought noone will ever post in this thread again...

well, xenostalker,
ive seen your works and you have a pretty good basis, i think in your case it would be really much better to have a tablet!
some other people ask me the same you did, but often they wouldnt be better even if they had a tablet...


back to my artworks, i think noone wants to look through my DA-gallery, but i ve done a few new artworks since the trash-mech.

let's start chronic:
