Thanks!

A recent creation:

i have to agree, really nice style here. you should create some text to go with it...i think they would make brilliant children's books. (i hope this doesn't come across as negative - it's just the fact that the images seem...cute i suppose, and...am i digging myself a hole here? i hope not...

!)

I'll take that as a compliment. At the moment I study graphic design, but my actual purpose is to become more illustrator than graphic designer as I'm more passioned about that 'topic'. I believe that's why I collect children's books..
But I'm still not satisfied with my results yet. Somehow they look too shallow.. Anyway, I still 've got two years to work on that part.

Nope. You've got your whole life to work on that part. You need to develop your skills all the time.

I mean I'm still at school for 2 years to develop my style, before I start in 'the big world'

Thus I've got spare time.

Woah Shadowshocker!

That's amazing man, very detailed, especially the glasses effect..

It's 100% Mahatma Gandhi

Nice work Shadowshocker. Brilliant job on shading and texturing the skin. How big is the actual drawing?

Shadowshocker · Post by **Shadowshocker** » Wed Jun 18, 2008 8:27 pm

Thanks everyone! The actual drawing is 8.5" x 11".

Very impressive. Nice choice of subject too.

Today was so hot so I was mostly in my basement listening to some music. I found some colored pencils, so I did a little sketch.

A picture I first made in paint and then edited in Photoshop.
I'd post up my drawings and sketches but I don't have a scanner. D:
