Phenomenal work :) I can't wait to see more of your work!

shaggyp responds:

Thanks so much man :) I appreciate it

[Mountain Pass]

Absolutely stunning! :D

[DOTA2-Roshan]

Bring this into a program like photoshop and clean it up :) I want to vouch for you but I would like to see some work that isn't "sketched" if that makes sense :) Great work!

DEATHLYZOMBIE responds:

Maybe u r right,thanks!

[Thranduil]

You're really pleased. And so am I :3 Great job!

[Motivational Butt slap!]

Watch you get back onto the front page ;P

I greatly love how true this is. How hypocritical we are, how brain washed we are, how we allow social media to take over our lives. The mediums are awesome and I love that you still applied your own style to the images :)

"i just don’t think i’m up to coloring something like this AND do it any justice with my current level of skill"

But... that is how you get better :P

Overall I like this, just wish it had... more. I especially love the design work on the gauntlets and other parts, very nice :)

PsychoZombii responds:

I am so late with this response, lol. I never got a notification.

I want to get better, but I also want things to look good, y'know? I wanted this to be at its best, but I'm just not at that level. I'll come back to all my old drawings and redraw them if i reach a level i'm satisfied with.

I really don't know how much more I could've done though. I felt like my lifespan would shorten if I continued adding any lol. Digitally drawing THIS was tedious enough ^^;

thanks for the compliment though! :)

[NORDS!]

Love the simplicity of this piece, the texture and hair looks wonderful :D I equally love the lighting and shading as well, like he's in a poorly lit tavern or something and stepping forth from the shadows with an answer or question to a naive adventurer, :D LOVE IT! :D

You never fail to please. Great quality.

Overall the topology looks solid and the colors work well. I don't see the rig but it looks as though its a decent one to "get the job done" so to speak but if you say it could use more work, I won't argue against that. I think for the topology of that character and the overall "goal" in mind (which is based off an assumption of the picture you have on the right upper right) you more or less hit the nail on the head but I think you have a lot of excess geometry that can be taken out and the texturing could be worked a little more :D

crashadams responds:

Yeah the rigging was just to get her quickly posed, and this is part of a daily art challenge I've been trying to put myself through where I try to produce a "game ready" model in as little time as I can without sacrificing too much quality in a single day.

As far as the topology I thought I kept it fairly low...Marmoset triangulates the mesh so that might be it, it looks a lot cleaner in maya without all the cross edges. I also wanted to make sure she had enough edges around the mouth, eyes, and joints so that I could animate her later if I chose to.

Thanks for the note! I feel like I'm learning quite a bit by doing this challenge...getting a lot better every day I think.
