You hair rendering is already off to a good start, face is looking pretty toon-ish though.

Cool map, Dennis! I have Starcraft II just because I wanted to appreciate it at a slow pace, single player, on easy difficulty because I'm terrible at RTS games. It looks like there's lots of room for different kind of strategy and challenges though. I'd be very worried defending so many openings, haha, but like I said - terrible at RTS games. I get too wrapped up in upkeep of things and stress out too easily :P. On US-Servers, though, so no luck to give it a whirl, sorry!
I'm not very good at multi-player either, still stuck in bronze ladder. :P Meanwhile, I've worked on that map some more, made a few quite radical changes to accommodate for a major point of critique, which was the chokey-ness and yeah, like you, most players were concerned about the defense possibilities. The map is available on two more server regions now(America being one of them), published on those by Akinokaze under the name 'Oceanic Mountain'.

Work really kills art for me, but then doing this I realized again how fun it is to just doodle. Tried to see where I'm at without reference... ouchie. Gonna work towards full body studies and more economic brushins. C:

and some brush pen sketches... horribly arranged.


just floating heads...

Hahaha, love it. Thanks <3

Can't find a bunch of my old dinosaur themed panels, but I did end up tossing the ones that I could in here.

Ref.
Trying to get the hang of charcoal. Third try.
I'm having trouble getting volume right which may be due to me not having one of those rubber erasers and not "getting" this very gestural type of drawing which is kind of new to me.
Does scaling an image blur it?

9_6: Looks nice. I don't think the lack of volume has anything to do with  rubber erasers or gestural drawing; the problem here is specifically the subject matter. It's extremely hard to convey volume with something like patterned fur without a really strong form lighting situation. try some simple still life objects with one light source and see how that goes.

Heres a quick little something for all my deadbird and project entropy fans:
