Not too bad there fella. I'd suggest you keep a constant light source. Might be an idea to actually draw a sketch of a light bulb where the light is coming from. As a reminder.

Secondly, you obviously are having trouble shading smoothly, trying to keep in the lines.

(Here's what you do:

1. Paint all the flat colours on a separate layer. (or layers)
2. Take out the magic wand tool.
3. ENSURE you tick the anti-alias box, and set tolerance to 100.
4. Select a flat colour area that you want to shade by clicking in the centre of it.
5. Create a new layer.
6. While the area is still selected, paint your shading with the brush on low opacity and hardness. This way you will never paint outside of the lines, and it looks quite sexy.

Make goddam sure you work on new layers to separate shadowing and flat colour.)

P.S. Sometimes 100 tolerance is too much, just mess around with it. Ctrl-Z is your best pal!

NEW 3D

[Katatafisch]

hey man your art looks cool, you could try to work a bit more with light and stuff by picking a lightsource and rendering out the forms and volumes then! believe me your stuff will look alot better then...that 3d program could be really handy for learning this

[Esn]

I like your 3D works much better than the others. They look great.

I think a problem with your 2D works is that you're not using the right program or the right tools or something... it feels like you're having difficulty getting the right results.

I'd recommend trying out ArtRage and seeing if that makes it any easier (there's a free version of it online that's quite usable). Just speaking from personal experience, I had a lot of difficulty painting with other programs - none of them were really intuitive. (for an example of my ArtRage work, see my Flash submission. Although it can do many other styles)

[Esn]

By the way, what program do you use for your 3D stuff?

[Hogarou]

i use zbrush for my 3d, and i used to use sketchbook pro for my 2d but i just got photoshop so im gonna start trying that

[Hogarou]

shit, piss, mothafuckin ass and blat blat.
