Artistic SWFUKers Thread as requested by Michael Sith :)

I know this last one ain't Star Wars, but it's the best artwork I ever did and doing all the Star Wars drawing gave me practice to do this last Terminator piece good enough, so needed to include it 8)

Damn Subzero, your art is incredible!

Some really great stuff on here. Thanks all for sharing. Really inspirational.

I did this a few years back but got fed up with it so painted over it...

Not Star Wars but a few pieces I've done in the past (sorry about the quality)...

Thanks mate, I was great with a pencil but always had the painting age of a 10 year old with a brush. :lol: i'm just dreadful with a brush.

That's some brilliant art there, very nice and bold & colourful and accurate, well done! 8)

I love how unique and a little abstract they look.

Thank you. I used to draw with pencil most my life and then around 6 years ago decided to get into painting.

Great stuff, I suppose when you've already mastered the pencil then you already have half the skill you need to paint, i'd tried painting quite a few times over the years and we do not get on well :lol: while a piece would be passable I just for some reason could never get the accuracy down, same with pastels they just make me angry and I wanna fly into a rage. :?

Lol. As soon as I got into painting I found there were so much depths to the colour as I only used to draw with lead pencil (grayscale) and not colour. But you have obviously mastered that. :wink:

That's the great benefit with paints, you can get real nice bold colours with great depth which is hard to do with colour pencils, I always tried to get my drawings to look as bold as possible but had to settle for 'sketchy', a lot of the blacks in my drawings though I did use ink for that to enhance it.

Nice to see the talent that's sat within the forum, Subzero....your work is superb, said before the Terminator piece is brilliant and some cracking detailed work 8)

Ham, those pieces are super, very accomplished, some of your work is incredible I remember seeing some of your portrait/ character work previously, simply stunning work, are you still working on your art?


I've not had time over recent months, need to get back to it simply for the relaxation it affords. Han Hoth had a run in with my daughters Chocolate Lab who decided a great game was to run around the dining room table shaking the canvas!

Repaired it and finished it off, added some raised acrylic "snow" , quite appropriate with the current weather, doesn't compare with the work you guys do, but I enjoyed doing it

Any Han Hoth fans?

 

[Michael Sith]

Need to finish this one as well.

 

[tigerham]

Need to finish this one as well.

Hi Michael and thank you for the kind words my friend. I last did some pieces early last year and have literally just picked up the brush again so starting on something new. Feels good to be back in it.

Your pieces by the way are amazing. I love your style. Thanks for sharing as I always enjoy viewing your art.

 

[Palifan]

Need to finish this one as well.

Yes you do need to finish this one Mike, looks amazing

[grinchy]

brilliant artwork tigerham, really impressed, and mike stellar work as usual, love the droids pic

 

[subzero]

Thanks Michael.

I like that droids pic also, iv'e always liked technical looking drawings of robots/ships etc with all the details and lines.

Thank you Grinchy, appreciated my friend.

 

[Michael Sith]

I just need some spare time at the moment to finish some pics off.

Ham you need show some of your portrait work as it is something else!

Grinch, have you done anything lately? Still proudly have the Yoda bust on display you did, and the Jaws tooth display.
I will be sometime putting a turtles display, and the Mikey bust will proudly be displayed as well...awesome work you did again there!

It's great to see this thread still going, love to see real artists at work, ( I know my place and happy there) but you guys have a gift and it is enjoyed by others so keep posting your pics, and work always a pleasure to see, and it will encourage others to show there talents, as there is no judgement on here, just appreciation

 

[tigerham]

Lol, thank you Michael.

The first is really poor quality (as I no longer have the original) but my favourite for many reasons...

The second is a man I met in Peru during my travels. Such a humble and happy man so took his photo to paint when I returned so here it is (still not finished)...

 

[grinchy]

brilliant work tigerham, very impressed with both paintings
As for me, sadly illness has kept me from sculpting and creature type work, I do plan on getting back to it but for now just taking it easy
Very inspiring thread with lots of talented folks, thanks as always for sharing

They look like phots!

The Peruvian man still needs much detail for myself to believe that, although I have the disadvantage of knowing they're not, lol.

 

[Mini99]

Regardless, impressive, very impressive!

 

[Michael Sith]

Fantastic work Ham, said it before, amazing talent.

Grinchy hope you get back at it soon, just make sure your looking after yourself mate

 

[Michael Sith]

Spent an hour on the beginnings of a Fett, going to have a try at something different applying thicker paint with a knife.
Have what I want in my head, it may not transfer to canvas though :lol:

 

[Michael Sith]

Bit further

 

[subzero]

Amazing paintings tigerham, the detail is superb and you've got the lighting and shadows nailed down which adds to the realism.

Love the Fett too, great thing about Fett is his helmet isn't all new and perfect looking so it's easier to get to look more realistic with weathering and damage, looking forward to seeing the finished piece.

Michael, looking really good my friend. Sharp lines.

 

[Michael Sith]

Little more done on Fett, getting there

 

[Michael Sith]

Bit of fun for my Grandson Luke for his room saw something similar and thought I can do that!

Loving the Fett Michael and that piece for your grandson is excellent!
