im just saying this in general but for some reason chromatic aberration has become a "thing" and now everyone uses it and it never makes the piece looks good unless the piece is suuuper well rendered and realistic and the chromatic aberration is subtle, and even then it doesn't really improve anything
i just dont like the fact that its become like this "ticket to realism" thing, its almost as bad as grunge overlays

Grunge overlay you said?
As for the chromatic aberration, you either like it or you don't.
I find it to look good on the drawings made by Detlef recently it adds to the feel of the drawing.
Doesnt mean that it will do the same for my drawings or that it's a smart thing, but I cant find that out unless I try it.
@Menter
I like it.

I'd add more to it to make it seem less 2D. Not just shading - it needs a thought out and at least partially visible rear end. I also know that it's very tempting to put stuff on a front- or side-on angle and sometimes it works. Here, though, it's a design for a creature. If we're only going to see one view of it I'd make that view a 3/4 one

I like it though - got a sense of cuteness and non-threat despite being a neat little machine

it's pretty damn cute for combine tech. it was just a random doodle anyway, but i'm deciding to take it further and model it.

This one is wonderful
The others all have pretty alien perspectives which abstracts them, but this one really sets a scene that I can imagine things happening in.

I have such a block when it comes to shit like this too :(

And a bonus doodle to make up for the slow progress.

Knowing me, this will probably never be finished, either. :v:

also, i've put up a livestream channel [URL]http://www.livestream.com/jensesesfarts[/URL]
it gives the illusion of performing in front of an audience, so it's harder to dooze off onto the interwebs. very useful.
streaming rite now

from todays stream!
why the grunge on the wings and the lakes down there? it's totally unnecessary and unfitting. apart from that looks cool.
This morning I made myself a reference for a large 6x4 painting I'm going to start on in a few days. It's a local theater, I am doing a series of 'life after people' style views of my city for an art show in the Fall. It will be painted with oil

It's going to be amazing fun to paint.

I like it
adds a bit of crackly noise to otherwise smooth areas,
adds a bit of energy, makes it static and calm
I don't know, personally it feels like a spiderweb. Like Spiderman sneezed on an otherwise great painting.

But if you like it then okay.
can't please everyone
