Tried out MyPaint with these ones


Forgot to mention he's a dwarf

You never cease to amaze me with your paintings Madmax.

Thanks man, happy you like em.

The stock of that gun looks a bit too long. Might be just me, though.
Amazing job as always, madmax.

You're probably right, especially for a short man such as himself. Thanks.

Madmax, that's really impressive. I love how you drew the head, and the clothes are nicely wrinkled.
The gun and the way he's holding it is just perfect.

The trees were a little distracting and blobby for me once my eyes wandered away from the wonderful dwarf in the center.
Gotta finish touching up dem backgrounds, bro.

The feet seem disproportionate to one another.

All in all, it's really great, nice job man!


I actually got in an artsy mood yesterday and decided I'd do a self portrait that didn't suck. Or make me look Chinese.
So here you go guys, my glorious visage in nineteen colors, counting black. (The official color count is 26 however, there's some duplicates hiding in there somewhere...)



God I look like a smug bastard.

Thanks MLC, that's some good CnC. I'll keep in mind about them feet. The background was very half assed because I only used one layer for the entire thing so I couldn't really get behind the areas behind him.

Your self portrait definitely shows a step (or maybe leap) in skill from the last two. My only complaint is that there isn't a great range in values, your shadows are a bit lacking in depth and there aren't any highlights, a strong lightsource will make everything pop more. Grab a bright lamp and turn out other lights next time you do one.

Did a quick little edit, not much but should show you what
range of colors you should try to aim more for.

Lizard, I hate to say it, but it needs more contrast.


Madmax I can always use PIXEL MAGIC to create contrast and highlights without the aid of a new photo reference.
WORKS EVERY TIME.


Oh, and I got a little carried away with dithering.


...

hey that looks like you MLC

Don't like the explosion at the top left but whatever.

Reminds me of my place in Terraria, a nice innocent cabin hiding a nuclear vault with several inhabitants and multiple stories several hundred feet below. Just an idea: maybe you could shade the underground dirt and rocks and have it slowly get darker as it gets deeper.

Yes, that I had planned to do but decided against as it would then blend in with the rooms, unless of course I gave the rooms walls... But tbh I can't be bothered to do almost half a page of shading anyway.
