Omigawd BG! Edited

Hey Erin, nice work done on your recent attempts on BG. Love the colors and textures you use. Definitely got improvement. Well, here's some comments and opinions. Coz I'm not very good with explaining with just pure words thus i took the liberty to edit from your image, hope you dun kill me for that.
First thing first, composition! I can't stress the importance of that. Coz a composition can influence the viewers to react towards the intented mood you try to bring across. It is also a good way to lead the viewer's eye towards what you want to show. When i saw your BG, the first thing i notice is your 'tank thingy' at the center. If that is what you wan to focus, you definitely got it! Then I after swirling around, i saw that small man at the far end. Immediately i feel that there is a story in this pic. That is another one plus point you got it in. Thus, what i would do is the make that point scores more. I pull the tanks to the lower left and uses the few diagonal lines you got there and put them towards the man, which is now at the top right hand corner. Remember the rule of thirds? Yes!

The second thing I notice is the uses of straight lines. Not that they are bad, if you wan to illustrate a very artificial place and a place very narrow and tiny, straight lines are good. But it will be better it you slant them a bit and try not to let them appears parallel to the edge of the image. Becoz doing so will stop the flow of the viewer's eye.

Perspective as you all know must be correct. You did a pretty good job there. Did a bit of minor tweeking there for ya.

And the rim lights! Never forget those near the tank. The tank give out light thus the metal frame that holds the tank will get the rim light. You can see from the edited images I did.

I am still learning. Hopefully these helps!

Round Robin Time 2

My go at this. Very fun!

Pepper Monarch

Some fun playing around with positive and negative space. The other Kai from IFS did a few pieces of work featuring Pepper as a warlord. So based on his theme, I did this.

Blood Angel

3rd piece of the day~! Frenzy mode! I named her the blood angel. Very rough painting just to get the idea down real quick.

Are you challenging ME?

2nd piece of the day. Its my first piece for my 100 themes illustration challenge. The theme is "Are you challenging ME". Yup, here it is! Its also base on the angels and demon concept for the 'might be' comic book that i'm working on. This is also quite experimental for me coz i'm testing out a custom brush that i made for myself.

Demon Design

Did exploration on some demon character design. Possibly for a comic that i might be working on.

Pepper

Did a rough test for the pepper project. Trying out some method before i start doing the actual one which most prob will be a full body illustration. In the meantime, did an illustration of a dragon for my facebook's dragon.

Futuristic Environment

I tried to keep the time period close to what I guess you had in mind Rinny. Heres one fast sketch i attempt before i go sleep.this is what i meant by trying some interesting angles and adding lotsa light to it. well, i should have added more elements and high gagets stuffs to make it more futuristic but this will do. small human figures should added to the environment to let viewer get the sense of size and perspective of the place. really important! dun know if it helps or not. other folks here can also attempt on it, might have a different feel altogether.

Nothing new from the last work i posted here. cept that i choose to focus on one of the character first. that goes without saying... the demon first >:D

So i colored her. still wip. with a bit more tweaking on the color part.

Kai 14122007

Rough sketch of the day! Lines haven't clean up and not color yet. Just to explore the values. I'm naming it good and evil. Was trying to go after the poker card kind of look. Yah... its not a new idea. Saw a similar idea somewhere. WIP!

Kai 05122007

Hey hey, been a few days since i last posted. Busy adjusting to my new life at Yolk. Like what my boss said, I'm a new Yolker now~! Not much spare time which is also a good thing, only manage to do one robot concept art. Very rough. Using only positive and negative space and a little bit of shading to suggest the shape. Prove to be useful in making the imagination wild!

Here goes:

Kai 28112007 Part 2

After seeing all the beautiful and cute skeletons posted by Nicci and Rinny, my inner most demon tells me that i need to do something. And there is only one thing i can do... defile their drawings by posting my version of skeleton. One that is totally not cute or beautiful. Hee... *Evil smile*

Kai 28112007 Part 1

My RO character, a high priest. I always use her to help ppl to level. Reason for using female character because i think female character look nicer. This is a collaboration with a female intern, Johanne in Blackmagic. She did the lineart while i do the coloring. Rush work that is done is 2 hours. She is very talented in my opinion for someone who is 16 years old. Man... I wish i could do that when i was 16...

Kai 26112007

More WIP for my recent mattepainting. Added texture and change some of the features. Added foreground buildings to bring more dramatic feel to it. More cleaning up to do~!

Kai 22112007

This is my wip for my personal mattepainting. Still very very very rough. Might need to change some of the things inside.

Kai 16112007

I dunno what he is called. But he is the bad guy in Tifa's and Ben's group's FYPJ , Hero. Just tot of doing a fanart out of it. Wish them luck~!

Kai 15112007

Here is my version for Nicci's KojiCin!
Nicci, hope you dun mind me edit a bit of stuffs to ya drawing! >.<

Kai 09112007

Leaving Blackmagic... Thou its an unknown region out there... I still wan to leave this stable place and explore!

Kai 29102007
