/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I've yet to see a single example of a painting with modular workflow that doesn't have muddy, uninspired colors and extremely basic compositions ITT. It seems like a bunch of extra steps to arrive at an inferior results for people who don't want to study the relationships between value, shapes and colors.

In fact, even Nurzhan's works that were done with minimal use of color overlays (mostly for bloom and glowy effects) are infinitely more interesting, intricate and have better color harmony.

And his ambient occlusion studies look a lot better without color. Such cases.
