been playing a lot with photography as it's the only medium i really have time or the resources to do anything really fun with right now. i really like playing with color correction i've realized. i need to improve on my masking a bit though because the effect i'm going for (actual colored materials) can get a bit ruined by inaccurate masks.

cell, you should draw your characters in environments or interacting; i like the direction of the last drawing but none of them tell a story

sometimes style trump substance, cell is killing it with style

Another wip for the video game i'm working on

Did some concept art for a game I am working on.

hm the perspective is all screwy. elements above the horizon line that are parallel to the ground should not be horizontal.

there's some wonky stuff, yeah. mostly with the cliffs (there's one in particular where it kinda draws attention to itself which makes it way worse)

i do like the bionicle-y focal point. it's super gross! and i mean that positively. that gives me a gross vibe.

reminds me a lot of michael deforge's work

I do agree the perspective is a bit off, maybe I should desaturate or move some of the cliffs from the left a bit to make it work more.

Never heard of that guys work, but I definitely see the resemblance. I was thinking of putting more detail in the face, but maybe I should keep it simple.

How do the colors look?

tbh it almost looks like you painted it in black and white, then overlaid a single color on a separate layer without thinking about hue shifting, atmosphere, reflection, etc. that method works fine if you know what to do though.

I would add more variation in the hue of the shadows and midtones and stuff

Actually, I did the sky first with various kinds of desaturated blues and greens and then started to work on the ground by making it a similar color for some stupid reason. This is a big issue for me when creating paintings with color in general.  I mean, I was going for a gloomy depressing look, but I kind of want to improve my colors and make the painting more interesting to look at. I mean, there's nothing wrong with monochrome, but I want to add more color into my pieces because that's kind of what I want to do. So, I should add more color variation to the shadows and midtones and see how it looks. Thanks for the advice, Blambo!

Also, I just got the James Gurney Color and Light book, hopefully that will help me improve.

EDIT: Added and fixed some things, hopefully it looks better.
