the second one is just wild!

it looks like it was taken by a camera with focus set on the door making the outer object blurry and unfocused <3

[Zylos]

You know, I'm going to have to dig up someone to be some competition for you. You're just too good. 

Also, +rep for the awesomeness of the second picture.

[garygill]

Wow, thanks a lot.

You don't have to find me any competition, by the way; I have plenty.

[DeathLock~]

Both are great, I wonder how the monster will be responding its visitors.

[garygill]

Typically, the monster greets its visitors with a crushing head butt. =)

Here's some friendly criticism.

I'll work backwards lol.

The interior, is awesome. I feel like it's a bit more than concept. Also my take on art is process so I love seeing where artists are coming from and working to so it's nice to see a more fleshed and worked out, 'refined' even, background while the foreground more simple and started.

The beast is really neat. He appears more in the final stages. I don't think he feels quite so grounded yet. I feel like he appears lighter than he is. His back two legs appear grounded fine, it's the foremost that seem less grounded. I think it's a lot to do with lights and shadows, as light has that effect on things :/ .

Overall, it's amazing. As I'd expect from ya 

[garygill]

Hey man, really appreciate the crits!

I agree, as stand alone pieces they do lack a lot.  I painted these more for the sake of presenting an idea and wasn't too concerned with how they looked as actual pieces.

[Ocean]

That's a very cool tribal interior thing. I think it's interesting that you did do the back more detailed and front blurry, what led you to make that kind of decision with the artwork?

[Grafikal]

It's not actually blurry per se. It's his process. What you see in the foreground is what his background did look like until he worked a more. Asides from the given effect, it's nice to see process.

[garygill]

Yep, grafikal is correct.  I usually refine the focal point first.  In this case, I just never got around to defining anything else.

[Zeriab]

Amazing garygill. I love them :3
Will you show us some pictures of the 3D versions when you are done with them?

[Leventhan]

Please do :3
Great job gary~

[garygill]

Yeah, I plan to show the 3D works when they're done.

what do you call him?

[garygill]

I call him shield-face. =)

[Nessiah]

Oh man it took me a while to load them but it was worth it 
I hope to see the 3d version soon! They fee like matte painting <3

[garygill]

Thank you!  Both paintings were painted from scratch in Photoshop.  I posted a work in progress shot of the model that I'm currently working on.  A couple posts back.

[Grafikal]

Very talented. One thing I haven't learned yet was any 3D software.Very cool.

[DeathLock~]

Awesome, can't wait for the colored version of shield-face.

[garygill]

Pretty much done the modeling.  It's 5,996 polys in total. =)

[ahref]

your second sketch looks very myst-esque. Has Cyan Worlds hired you LOL.

[garygill]

Dude, I wish...

[Zendah]

Wow, those are really cool!  I didn't know there was a 3D program for public use...
