i think you could exaggerate your foreshortening some more


but its very good you're doing some dynamic poses, do more !

[Mabelma]

Thank you for that Lexou, I'll try it out for sure

It's been really long time since I update this, so I thought I'd show you some of my recent stuff. I've been doing a lot of collabs lately so here's some of that. On this particular one I took the lines by the amazing and good friend of mine Alexander Diochon, and shaded his comic Deep Down Interlude which you can read more of at his deviantart.

Spoiler

I've also been helping him out with flatenning colors for his Minecraft fan comic, Called Crafting which you can read here.
Spoilered because it's a bunch of stuff.

Spoiler

A couple more pokemon art for the 151 challenge.

Spoiler

A bunch of Deviantart Request Sketches

Spoiler

A little entry for a deviantart contest to get some exposure to my da page.


A collab with a good friend of mine named Mike Hearn, he did lines, I did colors.


Lastly, I'm also doing some color work for the comic Rapture Burgers
Mostly doing just flats and messing around with shading once in a while but most of the work is done by an amazing artist named Mimi, who I sadly haven't met yet.

Spoiler

All in all it's been a pretty busy time since I last posted. If you like my work and would like to see more, watch my deviantart and I'll try my best to post more here.

I'll try it out, thanks. I'm going to be working on some Portal 2 fan art, so I'll be posting some of that later during the day, I would love feedback on that.

I wanted to work on some portal 2 fan art because I finished the game a couple of days ago, thus here's what I'll be working on now. Here's the layout sketch, more or less just defining pose, layout, and perspective. What do you think? Any comments will help a bunch, I'll leave this here for about an hour while I work on some other things, so if you have anything to say that might help me make this a better image in the end, I will definetly take it into account and re-sketch and fix whatever you find that looks off.

[Mabelma]

Refined the sketch a bit, not working on the background yet but the next update should have some work on the background. Mostly just drew chell in. Any comments would be truly appreaciated. It might look like she's proping herself off with the portal gun, but that's because the railing is not drawn yet so it doesn't cover the portal gun like it should.

[Mabelma]

Everything's sketched more or less, gonna start adding possible values in the next hour to have an idea of the lighting I'll be using, any comments on what's done so far would be truly appreaciated. I'm pretty happy with what I have more or less but I think the background could use some work, I'm not sure how to make it better though.

[Lexou Duck]

well i'd like to correct it but i really have trouble understanding the background and perspective, so try and clean it up a little please

[Mabelma]

Does this help at all? It's supposed to look like she just came out of the portal on that back wall, and the camera is on top of the railing like you are looking down on her, as she reaches up to catch the bottom of the railing. The two lines hanging on the back are just cables.



Thanks mate, I really want to see what you have to say about it, and the corrections you might have on it, I will appreaciate any and all help.

[Mabelma]

Did a bit of value studying, it's all dodgy, and fastly done, because I'm just planning out how the lighting will work, and all that. Thoughts, comments, feedback, anything at all, truly appreaciated.
