It reminds me of the concept art for halflife 2, I like the stark contrast between and bridge and the sky, very impressive!!

Wow... so many gorgeous DDs today... I really love the art style, it reminds me somewhat of the Lord of the Rings, only less fantasy-themed... More metaphorical, perhaps... Very nice

The tones are so well used here, it just blows me away. Wait, not away, maybe right into my PS CS sketchmode. The monochromatic greens and the relative low range that is very expressive paints a beautiful picture, grotesque and dark though it may be. And the perspective give such a strong sense of vertigo, of falling into the infinite abyss with one last glimpse of the gloomy world. Wonderful piece.

memod In reply to ??? [2005-05-02 21:45:13 +0000 UTC]

this painting is really impressive, the loose style of it give it a very own touch, and definately add to the creepy atmosphere. I like how everything is fading into the distance, how the dull light creates suspense, how you lead the viewers eye.
the only disturbing thing is that you used a soft brush for a few of the planks, a simple hard brush would have been much better
however, that's a well deserved DD, congrats

thanks man
not sure what plank u mean but i agree,.. theres much i could improve but it was a 90 min sketch i did for conceptart forum,.. never expectet so much nice feedback

and im just experimentin with new photoshop brushes,.. creatin like 1 or 2 new ones per pic guess it takes some experience to use them right n create the structures u want

memod In reply to 20aday [2005-05-02 22:10:11 +0000 UTC]

well, I meant the planks of that hanging bridge, it's sort of odd that those silhouettes of the planks look so smudged/blured.
yeah, custom brushes are a good thing, you can nicely avoid having too regular edges with that, the strokes get a more natural feel, actually. but dunno, I personnally am getting away from using soft brushes in my paintings, except for blending and colour corrections.
but of course, it depends on you
take care *waves*

ah jetz weiss ich was du meinst, des war dumm weil hab die bruecke gemalt, net aufgepasst un alles auf hintergrund reduziert,.. muss ich von zeit zu zeit machen weil mein comp sonst laggt ; P

hab nich zwischengespeichert und dann konnt ich nur noch mim harten brush und de rhintergrund farbe bisschen ausbessern,. is aber definitv n fehler der mir kein zweites mal passiert

wo kommstn eigentlich her aus deutschland?

memod In reply to 20aday [2005-05-04 18:55:03 +0000 UTC]

jo, das problem dass der comp bei großen dateien und vielen ebenen zu sehr laggt kenn ich auch, aber ich vermeide es so lange es geht, alles zu collapsen. wobei es grade bei paintings nervig is, wenn man einen strich machen will und dann zuschauen kann wie sich der strich in 5 sekunden aufbaut...

ich komm aus dem raum leipzig, und du?

yo das mit den 5 sek verzoergerung kennich nur zu gut,. obwohl ich meistens auf 2000 x 2000 mit 250 dpi arbeite was ja relativ klein is

kewl du kommst aus leipzig? da solls ja gut abgegangen sein am ersten mai


ich bin bayer, genauer gesagt aus nuernberg

jo, das is wirklich nicht gerade groß.
weiß nich, ich versuch immer grâßer zu arbeiten, zu mal ich auch das ziel habe druck qualitÀt zu bieten.... hab mir um drei ecken jetzt endlich einen prints account angeschafft. ich bezweifle zwar dass ich groß was verkaufen kann, aber der lÀuft ja nich aus, wenn ich also mal besser werde hab ich immer noch die chance was abzusetzen

in leipzig hab ich bis vor 5 oder 6 jahren gewohnt, jetzt leb ich inner kleinstadt in der nΓ€he.
