Welcome LO! Hope to see more of the C9 crowd around here, sad to see that forum go. Alex ran a tight ship, easily tone of the best forums I've seen visually and content wise. I loved lurking those forums.

Hey LO, good to see you here! Nice sketch, the light coming form behind gives it a cinematic quality, mooore!

Exo: Great piece, dude, liking the texture and varying line quality.

Mini dump go:

Thanks, Igo! That creature has some rad detail on it, reminds me of Geiger's work.

Looks like a giant penis :(

just testing some new brushes :D

Igo · **Posted:** Sat May 23, 2009 10:03 pm

Ellow, awesome portrait man, no idea who she is though, I Dont watch that much TV haha.

Sumox, that last portrait you posted is fucking awesome man. Next time push the rendering of the face just a smidge and you have an awesome contrast with the hair and torso.

SKULL!

Igo, sweeet skull! i really like the loose brushwork. fits well!
aand the girl, she´s in the show Twin Peaks! i fell in love with her almost haha.
season 1 is pure goodness, check it out. :]

another study from photo, kinda went too far with the noise stuff maybe...

Osorio · **Posted:** Sun May 24, 2009 5:25 pm

Yeah, the noise is a tad too strong, bring the opacity down a notch and it's gold. Love your studies man, there's a certain roughness in the strokes that draws me in.

Gunstar · **Posted:** Sun May 24, 2009 7:01 pm

Great work guys!
SpyderFSG> That Batman sketch is insanely awesome!

Spyder> Great textures, dude. Second pic is great, especially the teeth.

retina burn

Soulkarl · **Posted:** Wed May 27, 2009 7:59 pm

dude gunstar whatd you use for that like scrapped away effect for the power flowin around goku there? That texture and shit looks great :D

spyder: agreed w/ gunstar friggen great fur texture. Also other than the fact its hairy it reminds me of your badfunk

Gunstar · **Posted:** Wed May 27, 2009 8:10 pm

Thanks man!

Get any old texture with a lot of varied patterns/value/noise etc on it (I used a book cover) then add a motion blur in photoshop to get the vertical streaks, set it to overlay (I think!) and then use a mask to shape where you want the texture to appear. I also added a duplicate adjusted colour of that texture on top of that. Hope that makes sense :dies:

Soulkarl · **Posted:** Wed May 27, 2009 8:35 pm

ahh thanks dude - very creative use of your textures haha, I wouldn't have thought to play with them that way but really good idea - definitely gonna give it a shot sometime soon.

Osorio · **Posted:** Thu May 28, 2009 12:01 pm

Thanks guys, orginally I was going to draw badfunk, that's why the similar structure. As for the fur, it's just like three brushes combined layered over each other to make a "realistic" feel.

ELLOW · **Joined:** Tue May 12, 2009 4:54 pm **Posts:** 12

Spyder, kickass Bombface! maybe some sharp edged dropshadows from the eyebrow and nose to push the lightsource and volume?

Gunstar, love the colorsss, mega tasty! would be awesome to see a realistic portrait from you, with colors like these! please do it. :)

sorry for this one, hahah, i had fun tho.
