learning light and shadow for speed painting / concept art

[kite]

Hi, Iam new here, just got my artrage yesterday as my own xmas present :P

This is just a learning sketch of a knight looking up at this magical smokey sword.. lolz. Iam still learning the software and about some light and shadow directon, and also a character composition.

Do give comment and thank you for your time and suggestion

This is great! I like the way you have the detailed knight against the roughed-in background done with the roller.

I really like it a lot. Very dine drawing, and it's staged beautifully to illustrate his attire heroically.

From the 1124 AD issue of the magazine "Gentleman's Drawn Quarterly"

Good style!

:D :D :D
