Description A rather quick portrait painting i did not long ago, focusing on dark mood, concept and colours and trying out the techniques and theories i've learned from traditional/fine art style~ Dark knight~ a type of this malevolent class but he's those weaker, still human-kind of warriors,i kinda like how his face turns out-it suits their type,scheming,sly,yet stil with a dash of hope. I have a few darker , more powerfful versions in my head... hope u guys like!~ take care!~
Dread,peace out~

From the tone, it reminds me of oil pastels on black canvas. Nice execution and illustration style with this. The only thing I see is the unfinished bottom right side, but since this is a quick sketch, I suppose that isn't anything to worry about. Nice

Well for a crit, all I'd do is finish the edges up, and detail out a few points you may want to draw attention to, like his eyes for example. His ax still has a few too many sketch marks, adding a light blending to its colors and going over it with some detailed marks (like adding battel scratches or stains) could make it look a bit more interesting. Other that that, I think Its pretty neat.

Nice! Hey I got a question? How do you get that darkness in the backround, you know, the mood of your drawing?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

DreadJim In reply to WhitelightWolf [2005-03-13 03:36:41 +0000 UTC]

hi there!~sure i love to answer- i started tis image as a low key~very dark base for everythin relli~and my highlights never go beyond a limit~i used e illusion of drawing interest to the face by making tat area the most saturated and lighted~and for e back~i used colors from e char to apply, make the whole pic harmonize~thus e result~

WhitelightWolf In reply to DreadJim [2005-03-13 04:16:31 +0000 UTC]

oooo ok! Thanx! I am so mad though....I tried to make a dragon pic as best as i could...kind of using that dark technique...and..well..I don't like it...it doesn't look how I wanted it too! and i hate constructive criticism...it just hurts my feelings cuz I worked sooooooo long on this...it's in my gallery entitle All Hell Breaks Loose if you wanna see it.
