I've completed some of the cliff now, what do you think? Should I make it more stone-coloured?
That colour looks better than the previous "stone" colour- and when you put some shading, and a few stray grassy bits on it - it will really come to life.

The newest piece looks fantastic so far. Are you going for a storybook kind of look? The soft, low-contrast shading makes it appear that way. If you are then you can ignore this, but if you wanted something more realistic you could probably stand to darken your shadows and mix in some other colors to increase contrast.

I don't quite know what you mean? I want to keep the colours cool and friendly, like the beast in the sky isn't attacking anything. Just wafting through peacefully.
Here's the latest on the cliffs, I think I've got it how I want it now.

I haven't been able to work on it lately because I've been swamped with assignments :\ I guess I'll post that. It's just some pixel art for one of my classes. I kind of rushed it because I wanted to get to my modelling work so it's not that good but whatever. I don't plan on doing more pixel art.

Right, so I had to draw this for TAFE too. She had to be a princess and we needed to search the internet for her outfit, or look in a couple of books we had provided to us, but the outfit we made had to be different anyway. (What?) So I basically took the outfit from the book and made it into something you'd see at a strip club. Having said that, I'm putting it in a spoiler just incase you're in the type of company that is insensitive to seeing a scarcely dressed.
I mean it in the best possible way when I say this; You're the last member on RRR I would expect to be an artist. I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised.
Every one of your pieces wow me. Even the "crappy" pixelart for your class. I definitely look forward to more!

I love "Brobot". XD Is that a moustache I see?! o.o
Was going for a Bender style mouth but hey, moustaches are fucking manly.
Hmm.. what can I show everyone now?
Guess I could post this. It's a full body version of a previous thing (I like the portrait better. It was less rushed). Yeah, I don't think it's very good so I didn't put it on deviantart or anything.
Oh, and here's a Tavern I had to make for TAFE. Had to create, UV and texture each object and then render them. This is one of my earliest renders with MentalRay and it's not that great of a result but it looks much better than it would've without it Also the bump map (I decided not to use normals for some reason) on the floor is a bit messed up.
And here's another assignment we had. We were given the model of a treasure chest and we had to texture it. One texture for a relatively new chest, and one texture for what it could look like 3 generations later. However, the chest model we were provided with was fucking shit as dicks so I modelled my own.

By the way, I love it. =D I think the chest texture and Tavern are simply amazing. However, I'd like to point out that the drawing (that you didn't put on dA) isn't bad at all. I love the hair. =D

Haha yeah we had to include 2 stickers on the chest that showed signs of decay/age. I figured that if the teacher could read that one then I'd done a shit job.
