So, over the last few days ive done some drawings for the elder scrolls. Half of em svck (i drew 4 of them) But what do you expect form someone who is still a novice artist?


So, for the most part, ive posted these here to try and get some pointers from you guy son how i can improve my art style, general tips and tricks, and ideas, if possible. if it helps, im using the latest version of gimp.

Right, so, here is my first one. its of a frost atronach in an icey breeze. i based it off the one in the recent G4 gameplay demonstration. this is one of the ones that svcks. The only par tof it im happy with is the ice texturing on the body.

This one is my personal favorite. cause to my eyes, it looks much better then my usual work. my only real complaint with this one, is the legs are a bit too chubby.

Here is one of a dragon In flight. I used a cartoon effect on it, as well as a canvas to make it look a it like it was painted.

And here is my most recent one. Of a nor don a cliff doing battle with a dragon... i deem this one the other one that svcks, because allot of the time, the colors go over the borderlines.

Your thoughts?

Pretty accurate dude, nice job with them. :thumbsup:

wow. thanks. i was honestly expecting heavy critisizm. thanks allot.

It's nice to see some fan-art around these parts; it doesn't seem quite as common as fan-ficition or roleplays but I always enjoy looking at it, regardless of what it is.
Being no artist myself i'm not going to give the heavy criticism that you were expecting.
Obviously they're not perfect, but they're good.
Ambition plus practise will bring you closer to perfection, so don't give up.

I'd like to see more too!
:thumbsup:

thank you, i wont be giving up anytime soon. Ill see what i can do to make more, but at the moment, i dont really have the time. Ill see what i can do later, though.

Okedokey, i got another one.

I like how i did the body, but the legs look like they are too small.

Good job on that. Aren't dragons supposed to have 2 front arms also? Another thing, are all of these related to Skyrim?

elder scrolls in general. and if you mean dragons have 4 legs, thats the standard fantasy dragon. elder scrolls dragons have two legs, and wings that can act as legs.

Oh cool, I didn't even know that. What's your gamertag?
