heres COW 41.

Something about his legs doesn't look right... but I like the texturing XD

Thanks a bunch, fetusdoctor! I tried to give this one a bit more contrast, I definitely see what you mean with the character really standing out in the picture, even though its not tough to decipher from my usually under par backgrounds.

This was COW 41, one of my best yet I like to think.

Maby you should make the sword a little smaller, and instead add more details to it?

you shouldn't add more detail to one part of a picture, it makes the rest of it look bad

It looks good, but if I might add one suggestion, seeing as it's basically made of metal, you might want to add more highlights and.. I dunno... metalic looks? Haha... yeah.

I'm all alone in this thread :(

Well then make the COW 50 voting thread XD

True, I can't seem to grasp how to make it too shiny yet, I'm getting there though!

Wow, you are right, I never did get around to doing that :( Ill jump on it

it all has to do with the speculars.
he explains it alot.

its also the reason that 3d face looks like plastic.

WOW, sick tutorial site! Thanks a bunch! I read over a few of the topics already, and it seems like it will be very valuable in learning to color properly. As for the 3-D face, I know its all shiny, it was because I used a Phong texture material instead of a Lambert. Unsure of why my teacher told us to do so, but it was pretty funny seeing the classes faces look like toys haha. I'm pretty much done with 3-D until next year when I start animation, so I will keep practicing the digital painting.

Well, haven't been around here in a while, and I have a bit of stuff to show.

-That's what my class told me as well. Its all because of that back mountain, you should be able to see the top of it a bit, but I doubt I will go back and fix it.

-Thank you good sir, I'm hoping to get much better by the end of next year's animation class!

Any fans of Battlestar Galactica? Used many references for this, took some time.

That looks really good, but it would look a lot better without the spiral galaxy or the box showing the guy's face. The composition of the piece would benefit by removing both of those, too.

Other than that, it's very detailed and technically, it's a well-drawn piece.

Looking through your art, I can see that you're very good at drawing some things, but other things you either have no practice with or tend to skip over or rush because you know you're not very good with them.
