Alright so I guess this will be my thread from now on. After snooping around figuring out how the place works (now its all new an shiny), I figure Ill post my A level art piece. Its the last piece il do for an actual art course. Just looking to pursue as a side career from now on

But uhh..I only had my iphone on me to photograph it at school and I cant bring it home until after its been marked so.. the photo quality takes away a little.

That's a great picture. I especially like how you drew the trees.

[Ruther_3429]

Looks really good, very refined and finished. And that flower on your deviant, I'd say even better.

[Scarletlight]

Thanks to the both of you And about the flower, did that awhile ago when I was first learning water colour. Flowers are a nice change from my usual stuff.

Alright I thought the digital editing I did on that piece took away from it a little so I figure the original should be posted.


Anndd some pictures I found on my iphone , two things from my sketch book. Each one took id say 4 hours or so to complete.





These are both unedited originals.

You have a great style with a sort of wicked victorian feel to it. I especially like the one with the woman and tree dudes.

You drawings remind me of the older Grimm Fairy Tail illustrations. Were you influenced by them, may I ask? Also, there are some areas that are spot on with the thickness of the lines but in some other areas, I think you should've made them pop out more by adding thicker lines. The last art you posted for example, I have no trouble picking out like the trees and the human but I have to really focus to see the other animals; rabbit, lion, fox. Anyways - just something to keep in mind, imo, on your future drawings. Keep up the good work!

[Celestial-Fox]

Yeah, your style is totally amazing. It reminds me of a heavy-lined version of Fleet Foxes' first album, which I love. The subtle washes of color work extremely well with your detailed lineart.

Gunzet : Thanks, thats one of my most mixed media pieces. Theres biro , ink with nib , watercolour , marker and I think some pencil crayon.

Rio : Yes I was influenced by the Grimm Fairy tale illustrations. There probobly my most significant influence actually. Ah Ok I see your point with the line wieghts. Il pay more attention to them in the future. Thanks.

Celestial fox - Thanks a lot, glad you like it.

Should post new art..but can't on this computer.. will edit later.
edit :
Just a rough sketch I did in ink, didn't pencil it in first like usual. Iv tried to edit the annoying fold in my sketchbook and crap quality paper out of it.

Iv got a few new illustrations in mind that im working on at the moment so ..soon

seems like I'm looking at some gnalry fairy tale , book illustrations :}
very cool!

[Celestial-Fox]

What exactly do you use to ink things? It seems like it may be ballpoint in some places, but other times it looks like a brush pen or nib.
