Hello everyone!
I've recently started building a world and all that surrounds it, and I wanted to do some concept art for one of my characters.
As the title suggests, this is a first for me to do something like this. I drew a bit 10 years ago when I was a kid, and I wanted to get back into it. I've almost finished my sketch and wanted a few comments before inking, rendering etc.
I'm aware that the left foot (on the right) isn't great, and that there's something odd about the chest and the neck, but I can't quite put my finger on it, maybe I'm a bit too much of a perfectionist for a first. The neck and belly details are not yet drawn. I must say I'm pretty happy with the face, the hair and the rope belt ;)
Open to any advices or constructive criticism !!
Some character design for a personal project I am working on
So here is this image. This is by Jakub Smid. And its a concept art piece for the Game DayZ and its new expansion, which is set on an island in the bering sea.
So my thoughts were: He clearly used some photobashing. But also between the plants that are cleary painted. There is a lot of shrub and terrain that is pretty sure just from an image. Also the ocean is from an image and the sky and lighting as well and the road too. Some houses as well. What seems to be clearly fictional is the red structure and the platform it sits on in the ocean. Though some pats are photobashed and painted over.
Am I kinda right with this assumption? I am just curious because I try to understand Concept Art better and learn it for myself. So I started analysing art pieces from media that I enjoy the most. So would be cool if someone knows something about this "technique" or can tell me if this a usual way of making concept art:
the way = take a photo, paint over it and photobash in some structures.
I recently started a new project and noticed something recurring: most of my references are always other artists' artwork. How is this viewed in the industry? Is it something to avoid, or is it a common practice? How do you approach this?
First time using photoshop (July 2024)
Incomplete/Experimental colors.
(Very Unfinished-Currenly working on it)
More to the image (he is riding moose) but it is incomplete. My most recent project.
TLDR: looking for art critique-- don't hold back
Hello, I'm Zyaire! Many of these pieces are incomplete, but I would deeply appreciate as many critiques as necessary. I'm a 19-year-old guy who hopes to be ready to pursue Character Design soon. I have no community to talk to, and I did not go to art school, so any critiques (good or bad--kind or mean) would be helpful. Along with, if anyone is willing to have me as part of any online art circles that would be also appreciated.
Last Piece is my most recent, first piece is one (of very few) environments I have done if anyone is willing to critique that as well.
Edit: I also want to mention, I have more of a painterly style than one of keeping lineart--though I don't mind that either. I also am often better at drawing men.
Hello I ve been emailed by someone to use my design! I need your opinion Should i charge money?? For context Im an art student who never worked a job yet
Where I can look at other people's threads and feedback given to them for my own learning? Or to even get help and feedback on my own learning journey?
