MihaiRadu · 04-14-2012, 01:23 PM

Looking good. Nice use of textures. Just the right amount, doesn't attract too much attention and serves the purpose.

You still at that workshop? Hah, i don't even know how much has passed since you went in. Days start blendin' into each other. x D

DUDE!, this looks SOOOO GOOD, I love what you did with the shield and grass, everything looks great, and colors look pumped up just enough, well done!

[Edit, the increased scale of the flower is nice too, I think it pushes the tie between the character and the flower more, nice! ]

Hey, that one's coming along pretty darn well.

If you still have the guts to push it further, how about adding the missing joint into his thumb ?
I dunno about you, but my thumbs have 3 bones each.

Or generally trying to be a little more acurate with the anatomy of the hands and how they hold the stuff.
You have hands yourself, why not use them as reference a little more ? Or ask somebody if this doesnt work.

NICE WORK bro!
can't wait for the next pic

monstertree · 04-20-2012, 12:17 PM

Hey that last one feels really different from your other work. Really like the subtleties, especially areas like the hair.

kevin- · 04-20-2012, 06:20 PM

Hey man, can't wait to see that traditional finished! I should really dive into that again :P
About your logo, I personally like option no. 1 and 3. Number 2 feels a bit lonely, However, Ive always been terrible with logos so don't really mind me :P

JoseVega · 02:58 PM

@amaakir - thanks man - lol i went with something totally different hahahahah
i kinda wanted a more graphic symbol.... so... yah reused the mushroom.... but this is the last time i promise lol

Sweet update, thanks for the before pic on the traditional piece. Cool to see you thinking about logos / branding, great stuff

I love mortal combat too! I used to play that in the arcade a lot, I think scorpion was my favorite. Love the sub-zero piece, minor crit his fingers seem a tad larger on one hand. Keep pushin!

Thanks for the vid too

JoseVega · 04-27-2012, 04:11 AM

Jose, you've really improved a lot, I feel something changing for good in your recent artworks, getting in touch with the traditional medium really seems to have boosted the way you work, man! Those are some great pieces, what are you planning on doing next? You should definitely try doing some Warcraft Fan Art, hint hint, I'd love to see you try Sylvannas

I envy how well organized you are, I take forever to sit down and just work on one thing at a time, you know? The sub Zero video is awesome, how long did it take to actually finish it?
I think your logo could still need some work...If you don't mind, I can take a look into it :P I work full time as a graphic designer so I'm kinda into that kind of stuff and I'd be glad to take a look into it if it's ok with you

JoseVega · 04-27-2012, 02:54 PM

hey man thanks
yah i think it took about 6-8 hours.... something around that on and off....
yah man im up for some suggestions for my little log... i want something simple but more like a symbol instead of just a signature type.... go ahead
