Rendering Practice

Here is a study using the blurring effect.

pretty neat Human nature. Looks like a spook from ghostbusters.

Nice effect HN. The eyes look great.

This shows great imagination and I think this character has possibilities! Keep going with it, I'd like to see how it develops.

good image and effect HN...tao

wow.. excellent shading.. great job,

Here is the digital painting version.

Im trying to match this look in Xara, I'm very close.:o

That's very impressive HN.

Digital painting version? Which software if not Xara?

And yes, excellent use of shade and colour.
Horrific, nightmare'ish image though

Im just going to make this thread my sketchbook like practice area.

Here is a shape exercise I worked on and created this out of it.
The source file is attached, see what you can do with it.

A man after my own twisted heart. :D

Thanks for the source .xar

Transparency on a heavily feathered shape is an interesting technique, the green "rays" look excellent.

looks really great, I would only allign the green stuff a bit more.

Here is another twisted monster.

PAINTS Photoshop

Now that is a nice looking ugly ole beastie. Nice job on an ugly monster.

Nice drawing and coloring.

I've often wondered how someone comes up with the original idea for a monster like that. :)

here is a process animation

Pretty cool. I think one of the steps in the animation is out of order.

Very slick rendering. Thanks for sharing.
