what the heck is your medium? it looks kinda like gesso and charcoal, kinda like computer stuff, kinda like tempera b+w.

i really like the tone and range, and MUST know what you are using :)
 

Normally I use white acrylic and mechanical 2B pencil. On Galethorn I replaced acrylic with oil as it gives a nice contrast -- but it doesn't give detail and takes yonks to dry. Galethorn was a real tricky one for some reason and I ended up doing an obvious cheat on the foot...

well, i love it.

as a suggestion, have you ever tried alkyds?

the flexibilty of iols and the immediacy of acrylics. they blend like oils, but dry in a day instead of weeks. and they are cheaper and do not (theoretically) age as badly as oil paint.

i am loving your style VG.
 

here is an audition piece I did...

alkyds -- hmmm, I will have to ask at the art store. It's a pretty useless store though -- maybe I can find them online. I am limited to what I can use sitting on the one chair in my rented room (woe is me etc). Hence all the black and white -- it's easier!
 


Darrag - finished, kinda

I haven't quite captured the look I wanted and may revisit this later -- but I will called it finished now.

sadly I am unwanted? sigh

Personally I'd draw in the boring fantasy mold if I could -- I might get more work that way... (double sigh)

but enough maudlin crap from me...
 

Can you draw a creature for me?

The Undervile. Stands about the height of a troll (9-10 foot), purple skin(unless you want to do it black and white), a dogs snouted head (pointy not flat) but halfway to the end it has three tusk/teeth equidistant from each other in a triangle shape. Beady eyes. It has no fore arms but tenacles, and it's feet from talon to talon is about a metre long, the talons are huge. A tuft of sparse hair sits on it's head. If you need any more description just ask, I hate it when I request something and because I don't describe it properly it goes wrong...
