Rogue Trooper Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I really love this picture (this is actually atleast the fourth time I've clicked and taken a peek today). My only niggle (and please take it as such, I'm not capable of recreating this in any capacity whatsoever) is that the brick wall is a little soft; a touch more contrast, especially with the red/orange used on the Battle Sister, would really help seperate the SoB from the Daemon. Honestly though, it's a really great piece. Nicely atmospheric.

Chaptermaster Graymantle Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Darn nice work there Colrouphobic! Your definitely one of the best artists on the B&C. Still hoping you could make a couple off images for the Nestir V AoD. To bad I have no job or income these days or I could pay people to do so. - These days though all I can offer is to be part of a greater B&C project and to have peoples art energy channeled into a larger project rather than random pictures. Ah, well still hoping. Oh, again, excellent work! :D Looking forward to seeing more!

Chaptermaster Graymantle Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Yeah I can understand the sentiment. I haven't had any income at all since February now so now all the reserves are about to run dry. Your lucky to be a good enough illustrator to actually get paid to be one, I only wish I had your talent! Now show us some more pictures! :D :huh: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/174530-artwork-studio-colrouphobia-221009-still-on-page-one/#findComment-2065376 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostbear_100 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 As always Colrouphobic, your pieces are excellent, combining a great art style and creating a very intense mood. The scout killing the eldar piece is by far my favorite, because it is so different from the way 40k art ussually is:Big dramatic finales, while this one is anticlimactic, and has a feeling of humiliation for the eldar, having to die in some nowhere creek at the hands of a scout without being able to fight back. Extremely original. Can't wait for more.

I loved to be able to do this particular subject because of it's theme, but I can't take credit for it completely on my own...

Brother Nihm Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Hey Colrouphobic, I'd just like to say that I'm no artist, so make of this what you will. :rolleyes: There's a few things that stand out, -Most importantly is the lighting, comparing the lighting on the fallen Eldar, the marine scout's left leg should be in more shadow than it is. as should the right side of his face (it's hidden by the hood). I'm not talking much here, just a greater difference between the two. -The tree and vine that is next to the fallen Eldar could also benefit from more sunlight. -The last thing is the water, if you look at the slight fall and compare it with the almost still-looking water in the forefront of the image, something doesn't quite fit. The water in the forefront should show more movement. But, like I said, make of it what you will, I suck at highlighting so what do I know? :P Yours is a very dynamic piece and it really conveys both story and atmosphere. The leaves, trees, respective uniforms and lighting combine to make it very powerful and well painted. Keep it up.

The leaves, trees, respective uniforms and lighting combine to make it very powerful and well painted. Keep it up. Hey there Nihm, Duly noted. Some of those hings where done on purpose to emphasize and strengthen a weak composition. The trees, the difference in colour from foreground and background, the leg of the scout. These all have a purpose to bring the viewers eye to the focalpoints- the eldar and the face/chest f the scout. But noted and I will take into my book of learning more :) Glad you guys like... I'm available and if anyone is interesting in me, my studio or anything art-related, feel free to PM me, look for me at my deviantart-account or just do a google-search for Studio Colrouphobia and I'm sure you will find some answers (or I will answer them as best as I can).

Prot Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Colrouphobia, Personally as someone who has studied this stuff professionally I think the lighting is excellent. I used to get stuck in 'is this real enough?' back when I drew professionally, then after I sought training I realized just how 'bizzarre' real lighting can be..... sort of a 'truth is stranger than fiction' sort of thing. An artist I greatly admire said to me one day, 'The "accidents" we draw -intentionally- are called STYLE.' Now we both know trees don't defy gravity, nor do vines, and the standing scout does not seem to be 'leaning' at the angle the earth around him would dictate BUT it makes the nature part of the picture come to life! It adds to the scene. The creek, and the trees frame this scene beautifully. The mood is well set, well done. I really hate to do the 'what I would have done thing' but considering we are talking 40K.... if only the vegetation gave me more feel of an alien world. Nothing crazy, just plausibly 'other worldly'. The poses are good, and again in my opinion, what could have been a very boring 'forest' scene is instead contributing to the piece by use of dynamic lighting, and creative tree positioning. Now the only part I don't like is....let's be honest, the eldar would have been fine with his camo-cloak easily absorbing the shot, then springing from a faked death, the Pathfinder pumps the marine scout with half a clip of "Eldrad's finest shuri-bullets", leaving the marine scout stunned, and... dead. (sorry, I'm a big Alaitoc player. :P ) Well done though! Possibly my favorite of yours in recent memory.

AWESOME! Great picture! IMHO it's much better than some official GW pics. :D I like the momentum that is captured, how the scout is leaning out of cover to check his victim - it's really great!

Yeah, orhe is walking up to the eldar after having shot him from afar, keeping his target in weaponsight all the time in case that sneaky sob would jump any second... ;) Here is a new piece I did for TheReclusiarch: Captain Constantine of the Emerald Knights. MiniMasterpiece ( = smaller paintings, a fraction of my normal commissions ) http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e44/colrouphobic/Commissioned%20Work/Minimasterpiece-Constantine-done-fo.jpg Hope you like.
