    Well I'm trying to be quicker with them.. getting into the idea of 'speed painting'. I do need to tighten up my brush strokes. This one was about 2 hrs ish http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v249/ ... uins-1.jpg

    sweet man! I like this one a lot. You use the polygonal lasso a good deal in yours dont you?

    The reflection of that one building is awesome but yeah I agree that the water lacks. For water my personal preference is horizontal strokes building interacting color. You could watch that one video tutorial someone (probably you lol) posted that had the speedpainting of the craggly rocks in the water and the tree on a teetering rock in the distance.

    I have to get used to being simple with my brushes as well. I use a custom square-ish brush and the round one mostly though.

    I really like your coloring on the linework, could imagine some kind of short comic style that way. The perspective line where the floor meets the wall is curves oddly tho.

    pretty cool man, the perspective on the crosswalk is a little too angled down (towards the foreground y'know?) There probably could be more contrast too but I dig it man.

    Nice shit. The problem with the last one is that the foreground has way too much highlight. Foreground should (almost) always be darker than the background.

    Ah you're right.. thanks for the tip.

    haha well I like some parts about it more than the cave one but I like some aspects of the cave picture more...

    I'm trying to develop my style, so we'll see if ya like my stuff when my style is more refined.

    Jk, I really dig peris style and he's one of my inspirations of course.

    I agree with this

    nice stuff minos! I like those clouds in that environment a lot. The 'middle ground' coulda been a bit better, little bit scribbly now. I need to be better at that too actually

    looks as good as your other maps albatross. Theres a lot of things that still have power though after being bombed hard enough to have huge mounds of rubble. Maybe you should strategically place a good number of broken lights? Sorry if ya already have, just looked like everything was in fine working order just with rubble around it.

    Atmosphere is pretty dead on so nice job man.

    Hey man looks pretty nice.. when I get home I'll give it a whirl.

    Quick question though, where did you get the weeping willow tree? Or did you make it? or is it stock and I never seen it somehow!
