Creature Of The Week

Wed Feb 25, 2009, 4:16 AM
The Creativity Of Creating Creatures

Again I find myself painting on my spare time, and having great fun doing it. Why? Because of the 'Creature Of The Week'-activity over at ConceptArt.org of course. This week the topic is 'Colossus From Hell', a creature idea I simply could not resist trying my wacom on.

If you like designing creatures and take part in a forum full of creativity and constructive feedback I sincerely recommend you to visit the place and join in on the fun. It is probably one of the best places on the web to improve your skills of painting and to witness some wicked life-forms take form, all for free of course.

A guy named Michael Jaecks has just taken over the role as moderator, and I know for a fact that he will keep the activity exciting and happening.

Thanks for the favourite~ I'm a tad honoured that you liked it ^^

You have some amazingly original creatures in your gallery. I absolutely love some of the compositions in your full paintings also =O

Thanks you!
Yes, I'm from Sweden... but I'm from a completely different decade than you are.
(which, among many things, makes my creatures less amazing.)

I wish there were more norse-anglo God-Kings so I could pretend to be them instead. It seems you've covered your bases.
How is Värmland doing?

Well, I'm doing more arty art (abstracts in acrylics) and writing at the moment... but perhaps I´ll make another fantasy piece or two soon, just to stay sharp. I feel it is time to upgrade my results...

I think the world would do better with less arty art (especially in Värmland)
Fantasy is more interesting :nod:
