finally got a new tablet, the old one i had broke... and I barely got to use it. So yeah still learning, will post progress. Links to tuts are greatly appreciated.

Just some rock formations. Nothing amazing. Did some blocking, sketched them out. Will work more on it tomorrow.
Trying to get used to the pen and whatnot, criticism welcome.

I like it but the one lesson im trying to apply lately is - Lines kill the shape . Less lines more shadow light balance.

oh for sure, you don't want hard lines like what I did. Its good practice with the pen though :3 Thats the thing im having the hardest time with. It feels really unnatural.
Yours look like you have a better hang of it, did you follow any tuts by chance? I'm so clueless on brush settings etc

I have no idea what im doing wrong, even though im sure it is many things. I feel like i could go faster and have better results with canvas. Which should not be the case :(

Well , yes for starters im a art graduate and now i follow Marketing design academy . The thing is im really lazy ^^ ive been doing this for years - alot of tutorials watched , alot of failed drawings , alot of banging my head to find my style . Still doing it tho :) . When you get used to the pen and the brushes you want to use, the stuff you do will get much better.

Thats nice but maybe try some characters first ?

Landscapes are really hard .If you want them to look convicing

I demand more stuff from you then! I went for landscapes only because i have painted a lot of them in the past. I've been trying characters out, i'll fiddle with some designs and upload after im done with this one ^
Also thanks for the CnC <3

Great stuff odin! Good to see you posting. You nailed those first rock paintings. The sand is iffy but the rock and the linework is fantastic.

Lovely work with the forest and the textures.

I have some good brushes I've built up over a while if you ever want a pack to try around with, but it looks like you're well on your way. Looking forward to seeing a lot more.

thanks so much for cnc <3 Was scared you would never log on :3
I watched a couple of your you-tube tuts to see the process ^_^ they were very helpful!

i seriously underestimated the difficulty of Proper Tablet use. Speed paintings do not do this form of art justice.
