Excellent, excellent work Gladiator27!!!

Hey, I'm wondering if you would be interested in sharing your talents with a Browser-Based RPG I'm almost finished with. I need a few images for the site. See my signature below...

This is Flopeye The Slayer going up against Blutomungus, The Hill Giant, who has been terrorizing the countryside...

Jay was kind enough to take some of my old sketches, doodle art and other assorted "oldies but not so goodies" and make a cool PDF sketchbook for me.

If you wanna see what a bored 911 dispatcher doodles on a notebook at 3:00 am in the morning, take a gander. I claim sleep deprivation on the worst of em'. LINKY

Glad, your work is excellent. I like the ones you did for the web banners in particular.

Demon Lord, Kostchtchie....

I really like this picture...

What size paper do you use?

Colored Pencil I assume?

Gladiator27 · Post by **Gladiator27** » Thu Jan 22, 2009 2:29 pm

I usually use 11" x 14" 100 lb. smooth Bristol on most of my pics. Just depends on how much I have going on in the picture as to whether the paper is cut smaller or whether I go all the way up to 11" x 17" Bristol (like my red dragon pic.)

As far as the Kotschtchie piece, that was water colors, colored pencils and some acrylics.

And thanks for the kind words everyone, it's much appreciated.

What size paper do you use and if it is larger than a scanner how do you get the art into the machine ... Thanks

You scan it in sections and assemble it using photoshop layers.

That, or you buy a flatbed scanner like I did. It will take up to 11" x 17" paper, which is about as big as I go.

I bought a Mustek flatbed scanner and she works like a charm. After I scan my drawing, I usually use Photoshop to tweak it to get the contrast right.

If you're taking requests, how about a yuan ti or mind flayer? 2 of my favorite monsters.

I'm currently working on a commissioned piece, but afterwards maybe I can take a stab at one or the other. I've never drawn either of the two monsters you mentioned, so it'll be good challenge. Heck, maybe I can incorporate the both of them in the same pic.

Mindflayers have always had a cool look to me. Thanks for the interest.
