Greyall Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hey all, fair-time viewer reporting. I've been refraining myself from posting, but alas, days of watching work of art after work of art being posted in these forums has cracked my shell. So, I've decided to bring to analysis some of my 40k drawings to date, from the first to the latest (Disclaimer: I don't remember which one is the latest, so I'll leave the best for last).

I do have some more pieces in the oven and head, so it shouldn't be too long until I update this thread. Until then, I'm all for comments and critique. I have a real hard time getting dynamic poses for characters in power armour, so do counsel me. Thanks for checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Don't count on me for C&C on this kind of stuff. I find it amazing though and marvel at your skill. Really. Looking forward to seeing more, if there is more ;) Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Well, your mom is right I guess ^^ It's a comic-y style but I like it a lot. The Lion is probably my favorite. Great job, and welcome to the Bolter & Chainsword! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacekeeper Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Very Nice, the Pre-Heresy Khârn is my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S. Bloodhowl Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Very nice stuff I must say! However, your pieces seem to lack a lot of shading, I mean, there is tonal changes here and there to show different colours, but there isn't much in the way of shadow and lighting. If you added this it would definitely give the pieces more 'oomph'. Keep up the good work though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Mamma is always right. You've got a great eye for detail and I love your weapon & armour designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseDaMoose Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I agree, your stuff is wicked cool man. The comic-book style for the grimdark future might not sit right with some, but it still looks undeniably awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imrahel Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 It's... It's fantastic! The Lion is my favorite, he is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Doesn't really look comicy to me, maybe because i don't read them, but yeah absoloutely awesome stuff. The weapon/armour designs imparticular need to be made into models. Give GW a ring immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted February 1, 2011 Author Share Posted February 1, 2011 Thanks, everyone. My linework is a bit cleaner, now. I try to go with a realist and detailed style, but I prefer heavier proportions in space marines. I've been havin ideas for a Blood Angels successor chapter which I'll try and put on the paper soon. Thank you, once again. PS: Called GW, told them I had some weapon designs. They said they couldn't hear me over my mom's laughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moshutta Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Nice work Greyall! Mockery can be a great motivator I see :( You have a really good linework and your detailing is amazing! I agree with Bloodhowl in terms of the shading, took me years to listen to my art teachers and start working on it, and damn they were right! But take your time and develop your style, that's the most important :) My favorite = Angron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPK Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Great looking work! If you were looking for C&C, the two things that stuck out to me was that perhaps Tarik's sword arm, in regards to the elbow, might be slightly off - with the bend/angle of the arm, I feel we should see less of the elbow pad as it should be more behind. The second is his bolter, which seems thin. As noted, these armor designer are amazing and very creative. I especially like the touch of leafiness to Flugrim's shoulder pad.

dizzy-xc Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 You got skillz. Love the Lion. Want to see more. Can't tell your mom to please be quiet 'till you start making money drawing. ;) Untill then, buy earplugs and silence her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spacefrisian Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 You should replace Blance at gw for artwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boshea Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Really impressive stuff. Really dig your design for pre-heresy Khârn, way more intimidating then other art I've seen of it. My only complaints about it would be that he looks really small, and his axe arm looks odd. I agree with the others that shading would make this exponentially more awesome. The detail is amazing on these, but I found some stuff would run together and shading may help that. You got some serious talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam_R Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 The Lion is the pick of the bunch, always a Primarch i had trouble imagining, your version seems to have a quiet, stoic nobility that just feels right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
