    Hi thanks for the critique!.

    So when it comes to the sausage forms I've been trying to keep aware of the sausage form of them since it's been brought up before but i've been having trouble trying to keep both ends consistent while drawing them in one stroke, maybe I should just draw them with the mindset of an ellipse instead? just 1-2 quick strokes?.

    Likewise for the insects when drawing down the initial forms I was sometimes having issues judging the sizes of each body part relative to eachother until after the three main masses were down so I began drawing into them sometimes, i'll try to keep it in mind and keep the initial forms smaller so I can draw out easier.

    Thanks again!

    Thanks very much for the fast indepth critique, i'll take onboard what you said about the line exercises.

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.

The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
