Art stuff I did

I thought I could show some random stuff I have done here and there. Nothing to fancy. Still a learner - or lets say watching lots and lots of tutorials.

So some of the recent art work, done with the Cthulu Mythos in mind.

I have a few sketches here and there which I will upload as well but later.
 
Looking good crni! I am really liking the creatures (second one obviously inspired by Alien art? ;) ), but why is there so much glow and "butter" soft edges on? Could look much better without these, IMO, some more hardened black edges I mean. :)

What are the characters on the bottom left ot the first one doing?

What would also help is some slight more shading (like on the bottom left parts teeth) and gradients, IMO.
This is ofcourse just matter of taste ofcourse...

Looking forward for more, I kinda like it!
 
hmm yeah I am not really pleased with it either to say that. I still consider it "experimenting" so I am open to criticism. I don't mind if it is "harsh" as long its not simply a "it just sucks" line.

I still struggle with the correct use of brushes and options in photoshop. I tend to have some idea in mind, but trouble to get the desired effect. But I am for sure not alone with that. Not to mention I am pretty much still a beginner when it comes to colours.
 
lol? :P Your stuff looks really good man. As an artist you should perfectly know that there are always things to do better, and better and better and better... :P Art is about to eventually lose the feeling of "control" of your work, imo.

And the only thing that is really eye catching is the a bit blurry glowing in the first picture and the sharpening issues in the second one. Nothing that you have to defend for, because I really fucking love your "alien worm" :D

On a sidenote, it feels good that people open their own art threads, I thought I was getting lonely here. :wink:
 
Looking good mate. Keep up the good work. Always room for improvement and all that jazz. Good to see you making your own art thread too.


I think the Moon should be tweaked somewhat. Maybe a few craters and a stronger glow would make it look better? Just a thought.
 
yeah I wanted it as eye catcher ... went somewhat over board with it. I should have worked more on the details. That for sure. But after i dont know worked several days on it taking breaks here and there I just simply wanted to say at some point "its done". I hate "finished" stuff anyway. I don't like that process. No clue if other artists feel the same. Hence why I have so many unfinished sketches which I will upload as well.
 
It just sucks :P

Great work, Crni, I love it.
You could also post some of your earlier works in this thread.

Looks good. Any humans?

yeah, lots of. Just need to scan and clearn those as my scanner is not the best one.

also thx for the kind comments all :)

don't be shy about criticism!

I love critic :3 !
 
Those sketches were pretty sweet. Post more of that stuff too.
 
Building sketches are pretty neat. Sorta sucks you used the same smudges on both drawings though.
What were/are they intended for?

Yeah, why the shitty paper effects?

I was working on it for a school project. As example for what a book/magazine would look like eventually.

I think a bit of scales on the first picture's chest area would look cool. Like some gothic plate armor, but organic. The "fins" look awesome.

PS: Not saying "Make it look like this!" Just examples to inspire your own.
 
i like the sketches

coming up with futuristic architecture and such has always been a challenge to me
 
I like that sad cthulhu but he looks a little pale imo i a darker shade would look awesome.
 
Those architecture ones and the "devil" one look very sexy Crni! Maybe could have made the actual outlines a bit fatter, but they look really awesome.
