    These four things can cause more messes than anything I've ever worked with. Ever.
    Portfolio update/sketch dump is go
    Note that some of this will be reposted; some of them I finally got better pictures of.
    CnC & stuff?

    You already know most of this but I'll still post it.

    First one. IS SO GOD DAMN AWESOME EVEN THE GOD DAMN BATMAN BREAKS DOWN WHEN HE SEES THIS.

    Second one. I really love this one, it's so... real? If that makes sense. I can't draw dogs so it's amazing to me already but it's really good.

    Although, I've barely played LoZ I could tell what it was without reading anything. That is how it should be I believe. Also, the skull is awesome xD

    I still love this one. The combination of dog and machine (from what I can gather it's Zoid mechanics) is awesome. Reminds me of Ravage but semi-organic.

    This really reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it. It's still pretty cool.

    Your Lugia is awesome, I already explained this in greater detail on msn xD

    And this is probably the best combination of Mando and animated character ever.

    I love the shading in the first one, it's so realistic. I'm such a sucker for good shading, I love how it looks so much more :'D

    The coloring of the second one is beautiful, the perspective is so well done. I especially like how the fur is colored.


    And LoZ = <3 nice job on the skull especially o:

    I believe I already had a very detailed comment on the fourth picture in another thread for it xD not 100% sure, I can check :'D

    There's just something I really like about this robotic dog idea xD a very cute sketch c:

    Lugia = <3

    And that is the best combination ever, I really love how you drew it as well xD and the font looks really awesome O:



    Good job on all of these, I'll be looking forward to more from you soon 8D

    I really do like the first one. The shading is great. The Command Wolf is really good, I love the detail put into it.

    Belle is really cute xD. The fur is drawn in really well and really does look good. The eye detail is great too.

    The skull's teeth look weird, but its not a huge deal. Overall it looks really good.

    The full color version of this looks amazing. It looks better than the original in my opinion. No problems here I can even address lol.

    This one is pretty good. I happen to like the coloring. The only thing is at first its a bit difficult, at least for me, to tell if the bottom jaw is completely bionic or not. Not a huge deal, maybe make the mouth open next time for clarification.

    Its Lugia and its awesome. The end.

    This next one made me laugh. I really do like it though. The right hand is a little weird to me but the left hand is really great. The entire one looks very much like the artwork style of DP.

    Ah yes, I recall the first two from a previous thread - I still consider that ant's eye view rather interesting.

    The pen and watercolour piece strikes me as rather interesting, a Terminator Dog is the first thing that comes to mind. The bone sections of the dog leg look rather accurate from what I may remember indeed.

    I indeed recall you allowing us to view the Lugia on MSN. Proportions appear to be slightly off in some places but in general it appears to have come out very nicely; the Danny Phantom Mandalorian concept however, I must say, is absolutely amazing. I would enjoy seeing more of this sort of crossover in the future, in fact.

    Very commendable as always, Wolfie. I must also point out that the level of detail in some certain pieces is excellent.

    Dogs (and animals in general) seem to be easier for me to draw for whatever reason. >>
    I'm probably going to do more characters as Mandos, just for design experiment. O:
    But thank you <33


    I've had the concept of chiaroscuro drilled into my head since freshman year, hence why I have a ton of values in any "official" portfolio piece. xD

    Yeah, I was trying to figure out what to do for a setting, and I was like "...LoZ will work".
    And thank you, the font took the longest out of any of that. @_@

    Hm...Terminator Dog, I might expand on that more.
    And yes, I was looking at a dog skeleton online as a reference for it.

    I was trying to make Lugia look more...mystical? and legendary than what is portrayed in the game and anime. After all, in the game universe (which I consider to be the main canon) the protagonist is the first one to communicate with Lugia in ages.
    Then again these are the kinds of things I think about at 1 AM with sleep not being an option. xD

    I definitely will be adding on to the DP Mando concept; so far it has gotten good reception from the DP fans I've showed it too, and with practice of other characters I might make it entail a short comic series. We'll see. >>
    But thank you. :]


    Yeah, it's thanks to that piece that my art teacher has let me get away with putting my own "twist" on things.
    Basically she's okay with me drawing robots/mechanical things in pieces where there usually are none. xD;;
    That might be because the acid didn't eat away the part that had been drawn in, I might actually go back and check the plate I printed it from. >>

    You are such a fanboy. xDDD

    Another thing I noticed, then kicked myself for doing black on black lines; some essential lines are lost and it ends up looking like that. I'll probably be buying white out in order to fix things like that. xD;;

    But thanks.

    And now....MOAR ART. But just a little.

    My Mandalorian in a DP-ish style. Reason for the fire is that the name I've given her literally means "Hell Fire".

    I don't know what to call this. Might finish the concept tonight if I can't sleep.

    Pen sketch, we had to draw pushpins in "a loose manner". Meh.

    I love your Mando. In all it's drawings you can tell that it's fire for it being red and the tribal markings somehow get across the feeling of fire. The surrounding fire in this picture helps too xD

    That's really cool. I can't tell if it's a logo, a robot or a painted animal but it looks cool xD

    Pin ftw xD I thought it was a weapon of some kind at first, then I realised that it's a pin >> Silly me.

    I love the Mando, its just amazing. The fire has a really good color to it, but as a suggestion to make fire look more realistic, add some wisps of flame that don't actually touch the fire. Otherwise its pretty awesome. I love the helmet.

    This better have a Transformers influence B|. The only thing I can really say about this one is that its kinda blocky, but I know its supposed to be a robot. The eyes also seem sort of out of place, but maybe I just cant draw xD

    This one is pretty nice. I like sketches alot sometimes, and this is one I do like. It just looks really good to me xD

    The one where it says "Confidential" , with a design blocking out the words making it look more appealing was fine, just something I'd recommend for a next photo of the sort, is to keep your letters a little more evenly spaced out.

    Does it? I'm glad it comes off that way, then. xD

    I don't even know what it is, I'll develop that concept...eventually. >>

    Silly <3 but yes, it's quick sketches done of push pins. Annoying as hell.
    But thanks. xD

    Yeah, the DP style's not that big on detail. The main point I was trying to get across was "it's fire". xD

    It doesn't. xD Just some random sketch. Again, no idea what it's gonna be.

    Thank you. ^^


    Don't really have a good reason for that, all I can say is that it was the day before spring break and I just wanted it done. I got a bit lazy. >>
