Someone thought I should display my art here. Can't find that much in digital form, but I could start with this very old drawing...
More to come...




Hmm, maybe I should have posted this in Green Dragon btw... lol, sorry =p

very good Nazgul, it's quite textured, could be used as a gaming texture given colouring and the photoshop treatment, you should start applying hand drawn maps to models, this is really good, I love the wooden texture.

[Nazgûl]

Thanks my firend =)
That was a pretty cool idea. It would be rather cool to see this in game actually Throw some wooden color on there and it should work pretty ok as a texture, yeah

EDIT: Found one more. An old scanned photo of an oil painting I made 12 years ago... lol

I'd be hard pressed to tell that second one from any famous paintings...

[Elvenlord]

Holy crap Naz, they're both amazing!
You should definitely apply these skills somewhere

[Nazgûl]

Thanks guys! I'm glad you like them
I'll see if I can dig up some more =)

[m@tt]

11 years ago Naz, not 12...


But nice stuff nonetheless. Both have pretty distinctive styles that I've seen elsewhere but can't remember off the top of my head.

I done suppose you could show us your techniques used to draw that door?
It would be invaluable to know how to do that.

EDIT: Is invaluable the right word? my English is rusty, even though its the only language i speak

GUess so: http://www.yourdicti....com/invaluable

Well... in short:
1) Scetch the contours and layout with a light hand and light shade of pencil...
2) Apply the shading with various force to obtain the different shades of gray...
3) Work on the details with a sharp thin pen, without applying too much pressure...
4) Fill in the darkest areas to obtain more contrast...
5) Add more details and finishing touches by looking at photographs of wooden textures...

That's how I made that door anyways
For the oil painting, the technique is quite different

[Shikari]

Nice work my friend. I may have to make a topic to show some of my work sometime. Love the oil painting, is something I've always wanted to try, but never had the chance so far.

[Mordor Slayer]

Great work, you are a man of many talents. When I look at that picture of the door, I just want to know what's behind.

[Nazgûl]

Cool, that's pretty much the idea with that drawing =)

[Lauri]

well, you utterly failed at that point...

Everybody knows that's it's a smurf behind the door! Duh'..

[Elvenlord]

Not just a smurf. Smurfette
Didn't know you were into that kind of thing Naz
