Excellent images..... I have a project in the works you might find interesting.
I need and artist to create a 12' x 32' foam core backdrop for photoshoots at hot-rod and car events and shows.

Get in touch for details.   Will be deciding on the artist for this project in about 6 weeks.  In the mean time, I need a couple sketches and the like.  illustrating this kind of set.

Later.

I know the feeling. All I have managed to catch so far is a part-time, temp, training position. But, it does pay and I am building up a relationship with someone who can hopefully be a good professional referral for my future endeavors.

Definitely an improvement. I think you could push the depth further, though.

Are the tones still a bit too dark on the monster?

Inkthinker In reply to DanHowardArt [2012-09-07 11:38:13 +0000 UTC]

Specifically, in the composition, there's a lot of dead space on the left size and the bottom. If the final layout was going to include a lot of text or something to fill up that space, that would make sense. Otherwise, you've got a lot of real estate dedicated to his plain torso and arm. Like, if you ran a line from the upper left to the lower right, what's in the lower space that deserves half the page? Everything interesting would be above the line.

Heh... you do good work, so for all I know this is just a bunch of noise you don't need to hear.

Inkthinker In reply to DanHowardArt [2012-09-07 11:32:20 +0000 UTC]

Not on my monitor. The contrast makes the well-lit parts pop. I'm mostly thinking about the character/composition depth... she could express deeper, dynamic perspective (but not without a redraw). It's a great improvement over the composition of the original, though.

keight [2012-09-06 22:57:33 +0000 UTC]

This is a much stronger piece. Everything in it is working and flowing together to focus on the main action while guiding the viewer around the image. Well done. Good ideas shouldn't go to waste.
