found this in another thread

>>1704151
Love love love that painting, but seriously wish that tail fin was different. It would serve zero function for something that swims, let alone something that big. Makes me think the artist completely forgot about it.

I'd something different, but cghub is down.

>>1704162
> It would serve zero function
a lot of fantasy artists venture into the "would serve no purpose" area though, don't they?

i love that painting. i love paintings of nature with a few people or boats or something to really put the size of nature in perspective.

damn i miss cghub, i used to get a lot of inspiration there. conceptart is a joke (slow, unappealing), and drawcrowd just sucks in general. :(

Hell yeah sergey kolesov is awesome. His brush economy is great

>>1704156
his pose looks so out of place that its not even funny. Like what the fuck is he even doing. Do he wants to sell me this fur ? no hes sitting. Is he a homless ? no hes clean handsome and hace expensive fur. what the fuck is going on. why the helment ? this is so fucking stupid.

>>1704183
I have no fucking clue but i like it

>>1704180
more of his work

>>1704151
we already have a thread like this going.

the fishtail looks like it isnt connected to the body. it's too big to be attached to the top half of the mermaid

>>1704199
that's influence maps, not individual pieces

>>1704201
not your blog, faggot.

One of my favorite paintings

>>1704180
Sergey is a monster inspiration, always doing amazing works

>>1704204
there is basically no difference

>>1704205
yeah, it's the critique board and that's what i did. the pic sucks because there is a huge flaw in it.

now fuck off sergey

>>1704221
There's a huge fucking difference. One encourages people to crop up great painting to fit some shitty pointless template, with one one per artist per template. This thread gives you new pieces to save directly to your inspiration folder without having to crop and back trace everything.

Love Gustav Bauernfeind's work. His marketplace paintings are pretty neat

>>1704233
the inspiration map having the advantage of displaying multiple pieces in a single pic. and really, asking who drew something isn't that hard. are you retarded?
just look at the fucking catalog before you make a new thread.

how do you guys organize your inspiration folder? do you have a folder for each artist or just dump them all in one folder? my folders getting pretty huge and looking for a way to clean it up a little.

>>1704245
ctrlpaint has a video on this. shouldnt be hard to find

>>1704243
I'm not the anon that started this thread, but I much prefer these types of threads than the inspiration maps.

>asking who drew something isn't that hard.
No, but it relies on anons being cooperative, and me remembering to come back to the thread periodically. Realistically, if I see something I like there, I have to copy the file to photoshop, crop out the painting that I want, reverse google search it, find one with good resolution, clarity, and accurate color, then save it. In these threads, if I see something I like I save it in a couple of seconds.

Also, if something looks interesting I want to see the large, uncropped file immediately. I don't like relying on anon's cropping abilities to get a fair assessment of a painting.

>>1704252
found it!

thanks man

>>1704257
you are making it harder than it really is

>>1704264
Making what harder? Is there a faster way that's also more reliable than hoping anons will post the original image for every painting you want?

I don't see why you oppose this thread existing in conjunction to the other. It's a slow board and nothing is getting bumped into deletion.

Sir Lawrence Alma Tadema has some really beautiful paintings. He draws a lot of flowers in his work

Thomas Cole

I would appreciate if someone translated me the name of the painting "Prigione di lacrime"

>>1704875
google?

>>1704204
If you like john Martin you might love Wayne Barlowe if you haven't already heard of him... He broke my mind

>>1704875
Roughly, "Prison Tears".

Thanks.

Eve Ventrue

is it a good idea to study from these images?

>>1704931
Yeah, if you like the style and the images are anatomically correct and in perspective, I don't see why not. It's encouraged.

>>1704151
I believe your version is not finished.

>>1704988
whats the difference?

>>1704878

it's the opposite, "prison of tears".

>>1705085
that's like asking the differencer between a chimp and a gorilla, fucking open your eyes.

>>1705112
There's not really much of a difference.

>>1705261
Not the anon you're responding to, but you're an idiot. Look at the fisherman, the boat, the mermaid...

>>1705261

how you browse / ic / being blind?

>>1705282
Not the anon you're responding to, but the only difference is in polish. Otherwise it's the same painting.

The finished one is better of course, however saying 'there's not really much of a difference' is fair.

>>1705085
top kek

>The box on the left boat is white
>The fishermen have slightly more detail
>The string on the top of the tent thing on the boat
>Got rid of some tiny highlights
Geez it's sooo different.
