Portraits

Some more portraits which I had alot of fun doing. As you can see my blending skills were improving and I was able to put some more details on my works :D

Sketches

I was also practicing alot of linearts. At this point I was quite scared to use colors mainly because I was seeing an improvement in my linearts and I was feeling that adding the colors would drag me down again. So for a few next mounts I was pushing my lineart skills as much as I could.

Also while I was doing my lineart exercises I was trying to come up with interesting concept characters. At this point I had seen alot of other artists drawing characters, sketches and props so I started to do the same.

Here I was trying a more "energetic style" after I have watched Feng Zhu's youtube channel. He was mentioning on one of his videos how he prefers seeing the energy in the lines rather than making them too stiff and perfect so I decided to give it a shot as well :) Here are the results.

Illustrations

I was slowly trying to get out of my comfort zone and decided to do some landscapes as well. Second one is the original piece and first one is an overpainting someone did for me.

Because my dream was to work for Blizzard Entertainment I was also drawing some of the popular characters from their universe such as diablo and many others 

Concepts

Here I was slowly getting used with Photoshop and I was trying to come up with interesting character concepts. I was still lacking some of the fundamentals but I was managed to build myself slowly.

I have also started to experiment presentation techniques, as you can see on those portraits. I have tried to see what kind of background fits the best for my characters (grey/ white/ personalized/ etc)
