The halo and rim lighting are very effective here CG. Looks really good.

Everything's on the right!!!

It's like driving abroad!

I agree, love the fi lights, love the whole I age too, the horse one has come on gpfantastically too, great stuff, although that dragon thing is creepy, have you ever read the 'Necroscope' books by Brian Lumley? It reminds me of some creatures in those books

Can I ask if anyone knows of an alternative to photobucket to upload images? Photobucket is being a pain as of late, it's hard to organize my files there and sometimes it accidentally posts 'doubles' of my work so it's a bit annoying. Any help would be appreciated!!!!

I don't think there's a limit to how many images you can attach to one post right here, by using the add file button (every time you use it it'll add another one to add more pictures...)

Any an all misspellings are henceforth blamed on the cats.

Hmm? I thought that was discussed when the site first came about? And thought someone said there was a limit, but don't recall how many? ... Or I may wrong altogether. Though I don't often post multiple images myself, it would be nice to know., Maybe Banj could chime in?

I get sketchy around pencils! ...=D

Great perspective exercises. I would recommend scanning the images as oppose to taking photos of them. That way they're much clearer to see. Also, some of these exercises look they been done a long time a go, maybe try something new like drawing through? Eg draw a box then draw another one behind that is partially covered by the first box. Then draw the skeleton or lines that make the boxes.

Thanks everyone for there input, decided to stick with Photobucket but upload less images at a time to make things easier, seems to have done the trick!

Been working on perspective non-stop.... I actually mean that literally, lol. Here's some studies:

Looking good cgaddict! Some of your boxes have parallel lines when they should instead converge. Imo as you into more complex perspective studies I recommend using a ruler since you could run into problems with accuracy and alignment. Eg a building with many windows, a ceiling with many pipes etc.
