Maybe slidenride can give you tips since he appears to know everything about drawing, or about everything for that matter.

Wow. Sheer insanity. I can tell you've improved since the R34 drawing...I think I just shorted out the keyboard from drooling so much.

Re: Something a Little Different

*sigh* That is just amazing. Insanely amazing. Even the dirt on the spark plug wires. Looks just like a photo.

Re: Something a Little Different

aha! there's no shadow for the kickstand...... even though it doesn't have to be huge just add a little dark tones on the tip... it should meet the main shadow....

Looks rubish now! no, its you're best drawing yet by far! I can spend about 5 mins just looking at it.

I myself have spent hundreds of hours on drawing cars in color and I still cant. Its not an issue of time at all, its and issue of skill, and natural talent.


yes. this is the brutal reality.

an addendum to it: the more you draw, the faster you draw; the more the skill flows through the resident talent. it is literally, too, a physiological metamorphosis. muscles and neuropaths are built up. therefore, the two must merge: skill must come up to meet the "talent volume per cubic meter," so to speak.

nothing will put a candle to your a$$ more quickly than a deadline. you will fake it till you make it, brother, i tell you that. drawn well or not, you gotta put out.

as for the motorbike, it is awesome. it looks like colored pencil. i don't care how long it took. it is spot-on. you are one helluva renderer.

Re: Something a Little Different

i'm stunned.. you really should be making a living out of this.
Any plans on what you're doing next? I'd like to see something completely of your own design
