Nice structure, Klox ;) :-D.

You know, I wonder if the "lighting" comments turn up so frequently because that's the thing that jumps out most strongly at people - maybe because it is something that lots of people have trouble getting to look right? Just a thought - I'm only a tyro dabbler on this site and in art in general, so that might be way off base :P~. Anyway, I love your stuff!

i always like your use of color, and how you can see the "strokes" of the picture, it seems to flow and carries great texture.
that and the interesting twisted features XD

My turn.. I have to say some of us don't have much knowledge of art, and its terminology..so we say we like this or that about a particular picture just because that's all we know how to say. I like this too, I like the exaggerated features, and yes.. I like the light too.. You rock , Klox...ok I'm done too

On the other hand klox, one could comment that lighting is the only thing that makes any picture good. if there were no light, the image would be blank. a lot of our understanding of shape, form, and texture is based on how light reflects off things. of course, if one were to make an image represent form, shape and texture without light (ie, just abstracting the physical feeling somehow), that would be a whole other animal (arguably modern/abstract art attempts to do this, though maybe not with the same intent).

I think people like the fact that you tend to use more than one light source or have very little ambient light, giving your pictures a more dramatic feeling. Something that I think more people should try doing (self included).

Safety save - about to start mucking about with the colors. I think it lost something from v1 to v2. Going to see if I can get it back...

Couldn't stand it - went back to fix it up a little bit... Blimey, I notice that you can't even tell the difference. Man, it's rough to fix gradient boo-boo's after the fact...

Messing around with 3-D (inspired by Yates!) and playing with the gradient tool - three cheers for the gradient tool :) :). Nice to be back - couldn't find time to draw for the last few days...

Oh it's so pretty, the top look like yummy cotton candy.

More practice with the brush adjustments, some of it's off but who cares. It's so pretty.

3d-pattern. Containing: 3 hexagons. Each hexagon has one triangle-hole; The missing triangle is glue-ed on top. (and rotated 3 triangles. (Rotating 2 triangles is more interesting tho, but the image above doenst show that version.) There are several ways you can connect the layers in eachother: Creating multiple optional patterns,... Aah-well... just to let you know..

Nice rendering, almost vector, I'd love to know how you did this.
yates (Jan 9, 2007)
