The progression of open_sketchbook's drawings make it seem like his images are slowly coming into focus.
Is there a particular reason why you are that liberal with your blurring techniques? You definitely have talent (way more talent than I could possibly have), but the blurriness of the colors/shades is a little off-putting.
Because I'm not comfortable with hard brushes yet. Right now when I use hard brushes I just get crappy lines all over my drawing. With each drawing I've been increasing the edge hardness of my brush as I get more confident with it.
A skirt? Seriously? Also, is it just me, or does it look like that skirts is way too high. Or is her upper body just non-existent?
EDIT: Katawa Gundam Senshi?
All my paintings have been units from my Red Alert mod. The Japanese Empire in it are super-anime, and the design idea for this unit, the Battle Psychic, was basically "Technological Sailor Moon".
Been awhie since I drew her. Seem to be every few weeks. I worked on her story and design for years off and on. I think I'm almost ready to do it. I invented her 4 years ago. It's on the first page of the thread still! WHOA!
Whoa! That one looks so good! I remember you drawing her way back when. I think I even did a fanart sketch of her, but this is by far my favorite version I have seen.
WIP of a Doomgirl space marine for a 90s style retro FPS cover. I used my best overly soft shading and monotone colour scheme to really get that mid-90s cover art feel.
While the soft shading looks fine, wouldn't that smooth shiny armor have specular highlights on it? Why is it so matte? I like the visor, and that it has a lot of different tones in it.
Sketches for some of the Archetype profiles in the Hardboiled rulebook. The Professor and Sleuth are based on characters played in the very first Hardboiled test game, and the Dame is based on another playtester's character.
I will never tire of drawing robots with personality/robo-facial hair.
Don't put the Statue of Liberty there, that's not where she is. She is way far away from Manhattan. I mean, it's weird, because when people change the buildings I'm like "yeah, sure, alternate New York" but somehow moving the whole island just breaks suspension of disbelief.
(It always cracks me up when Japanese artists put her in the skyline.)
This isn't New York though. It's like, actually alternate New York. Like, pulp fantasy universe alternate New York. If you look closely, she's got a shield, sword and badass pose, and doesn't have a pedestal. It's not the Statue of Liberty, it's just it's weird fantasy analog.
She's also, uh, a lot bigger. Those little things around her feet are full-sized ships.

Princesses:
"You Can Fly, You Can Fly, You Can Fly"
"Once Upon a Dream"
Villains:
"A Special Sort of Death"
"Who's Been Painting my Roses Red?"
"The Elegant Captain Hook"
"Maleficent's Evil Spell"
Well they work really well as Zbrush Alphas!

Some done by famous people, others by really good artists and various all around cool people.
The sketch for the Prologue section of the Hardboiled book, and basically the first art people will see.
Inking this is gonna be fun.
Not sure what I'm planning to do with this one exactly.

@Andrew
Done in my new note 3, it's well equipped for random sketching. Just big enough, IMHO.
