Trying to get back into drawing again

**Inquisitor Kallus** · 12-03-2012, 19:05

Ok, I was an art student back in '98/2001 and I loved drawing at times. I didnt complete my degree in illustration it kinda fell by the wayside. However just recently I have had something in me wanting to start making art again. I've been out of it for a while and found a couple of different art programs that are really nice. The other bonus is that theyre free....

Anyway enough of that heres a couple of pieces I started.

The first is an expermient with different marks on 'paper', getting used to the program.
The second is something of a jungle world mood piece

Please feel free to leave any criticisms or comments

Not a single comment? You can even tell me that they burn your eyes... , though some constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated

That jungle pic looks very nice. Reminds me of the graphics in Shadow of the Colossus (that's a positive thing!)
Interested to see how the WIP's progress

yeah, the stories and art sections isn't as frequented upon as the others...I suspect a lot of people don't know it exists.

Kind of hard to see what's going on in that first 40k WIP images.
The second one is a marine killing guardsmen, but the first...warhound titan repair bay or sniper on rooftop?
I'm intrigued and look forward to more.

Thanks for the replys guys. The warhound one is going to be in a broken 'church' like building with the two guardsmen at the front hiding from the Chaos titan

EPIC! Want to do something like that myself...
what programs are you using?

**Inquisitor Kallus** · 09-05-2012, 18:27

Thanks, I used Sculptris for the Bloodletter head. Its free, which is good. If you can afford to though I would recommend picking up Z-brush

Not done anything in a while and caught the creative bug again tonight which resulted in me starting up some 'artefacts' which i will be using on my site in the future.
