blaaaaargh!




*rips hair out*

This piece is driving me nuts!
Been attempting environments because for whatever reason, I'm sick of drawing people and I need to get out of this self-imposed rut I've put myself in.
It's supposed to be some underwater command center or something..
any crits at this point would be great, because this has been stewing in my HD
for well a month now, and it's coming to the point where I'm losing interest.

Hey Everyone thanks for all the comments on my last post. That piece was just a sample i did and finished just in time for spectrum. I need to be done with it for right now and move on, but I'll probably come back to it and do all the things you guys suggested soon.

Anyway i made a new post so all of you who use a program to monitor the blog would see it. I'm a part of www.ohger.com, which is like the site www.drawger.com but for up and coming artists rather than well known professionals and its still really new. The people who get in have to be voted on by the people who are already members.

This unfortunately means that sometimes there's some idiots voting down a lot of good people and I'm starting to think its because they don't want people who are better than them on the site. There's a much better chance of getting on if you're invited by an existing member.

So I want to extend invitations out to everyone on here who wants one. If the site takes off it could be really cool and a good way to be seen. You guys probably know a couple people on the site already like Francis Vallejo (he seems like a cool guy but it gets under my skin that hes so famous already...) Anyway, shoot me an email or a comment on this post and ill set up an invitation for you.

And keep posting on Tasty Paint! We got a good thing going here and its seemed to whittle down to only a few people posting. I think back to how awesome it was in Sal's class and sometimes it makes me sad. Miss you guys.

Thanks!

melissa-

Hi guys! I'm glad I was invited to join because for some reason I can't figure out how to get comments on my own blog, so maybe here at least have a chance at a little feedback.

I really want to start painting again, and I just know I'm going to be doing it a whole different way so I don't know what they'll look like. I was thinking of painting one of these drawings, but I don't know which?
