Introducing and sharing some works

#1 Post by Sh4dowsofcolors »

Hello everyone! following my introduction mex let me bother you with some pics of my work too :oops:

These are mostly from last year and half, as you will see I have a particular love for busts (mainly 1:9/1:10) but in general I enjoy everything that gives me joy in painting it! Likewise in regards to subjects, you'll find fantasy, historical, sci-fi and so on and so forth

Thanks again for your welcome, really happy to join this forum and absolutely mesmerized by the passion and the quantity of beautiful works I'm seeing around in the boards discussions!

cheers! Ale

I don't even know where to start - every piece blows my mind. Top shelf all the way.

Absolutely superb, are you an artist by trade? I paint and teach art for a living and your understanding of colour and tone
would translate to paper and canvas just as well!

If you could do a WIP thread some time to give us an insight into your process, materials etc that would be awesome.

Cheers,
Paul

well I really don't know how to thank you all for your welcome :bow: with GK things get different from a 1:10 figure so I will definitely bother you all seeking advice in future I guess!

Thanks Tim! I would love to learn but I don't use oils at all for time being, only acrylics

and Paul that's too kind but thanks for the appreciation :bow: I'm not a professional, just an engineer trying to compensate my artistic lacks by understanding colors' physics
It just happens to me from time to time to do a boxart for a manufacturer or sell a piece or commission rather to pay back my hobby and have the illusion of saving family money for my children (especially when l take a look at my ridiculous pile of shame :D )
Certainly I'm glad to share insights if that might be helpful ... and if in the meantime you have any curiosity please feel free to ask and I will share any info with pleasure!

thanks again everyone for your words!
cheers

I'll just add my kudos, and give a special call out to the woman in the yellow uniform. Yellow is really hard to do well.

Well, if we are going to mention what catches our eyes, I have to say something about that purple-haired girl. The pattern work on that shear teddy is amazing!

Absolutely amazing all the way through! I love every one, what a talent.
And don't worry, we all have a pile of shame.

Now that is one heck of an introduction! Your is beautiful. The skin tones are sublime and the pattern work is simply stunning.

Welcome. I look forward to seeing more of your art work.
