What movie is that from? Don't think I've seen Perlman with a goatee.

The shadows on the girls skin are maybe a little too desaturated? She looks a little bit like she's rockin' a 5 o'clock shadow.

I love how you use some pretty bold lines but still keep it painterly. And you're always so good at making the characters feel alive.

Man this stuff is awesome, your style just totally works with sci-fi. And fantasy. And everything come to think of it, but I think the sentiment still counts.

Space scenes with the peeps in their fancy fuckin' getups are at their strongest when you've got said peeps interacting with the scenery - eg. standing on it. Much as the poster-like quality is all well and good, that first scene with the two chicks is easily the finest.

Continue to be excellent, man.

Is all the space stuff for an upcoming game from you?
Cause the design and layout of those characters on the backgrounds feels the same as in other games you've done.

Hey guys, thanks! Yeah, they're for an upcoming game, it will take place in the same 'universe' as my Wayfinder games, however the gameplay will be considerably different considering both of those games were huge failures. :P

Excellent backgrounds and art in general, if you ever have the time I would really appreciate it if you could do a step by step or explain the process of how you create them, indoor backgrounds specifically. You do them very well.

Going to be doing some background drawings for a game project at http://www.livestream.com/hyptosis if anyone is interested.

Just part of a series I'm doing for practice.

nice, looks very realistic

Thanks dude, they're both from Fifth Element, although the first one didn't turn out looking very much like the girl. She was the president's assistant, had kind of a vulcan thing going on. The second chick was easier to spot because she's stunning, I'm also MUCH more happy with the second one.

Hey man cool stuff.

Now that i got that out of the way time for a critique. I think you should draw from life and do alittle realism with you drawings. That will help you in understanding how things are percieved in 3d form. Then you can take the lessons from lighting, tonal values, shape, form, even composition and apply them to your digital works that are not realism. This will benefit you and any artist alot. I personally think all artists of any skill caliber should do still lifes at least once a week for practice.

I noticed in some of your scenerary you have some unnatural linework in your rooms. One of your rooms looked as if it was in outer space (if that was intended good job) because it was tilted. While another room you had drawn it wrapped in a cuve around a wall. Your curve wasn't in its correct perspective and looked like it was elevated instead of flat.

These are all things you learn from darwing in life. When you draw in life and not from photos more often you will begin to recognize these misstakes and correct them. Also, even if you photo copy a photo perfectly there is still a chance that it will come out looking disporptionate or skewed. YOu need to have a strong understanding of life drawing while you work with photos in order to produce something that is believable.

Hope that was helpful, keep drawing you have some cool stuff.
