I'm quite lost at the moment. I need some direction with my art, some help maybe. I feel i don't have a style. I need to focus everything i've learned into a certain way i'm comfortable with so i can work on it - i'm kind of all over the place. I think i'm going to be working on more comic book style work for the moment.
Influences: Todd McFarlane, Greg Capullo, Brian Haberlin, Andy Troy, Philip Tan, Ashley Wood, Ian Hannin, amongst others
Elfwood Influences are mainly all the people on my favorite list but mostly Derek 'Hendercrazy' Henderson his work is really inspiring

Favorite Fantasy/Scifi Movies and TV ShowsHyperdrive! Awesome sci-fi series with none other than Mr. Nicholas John Frost. LOTR is an obvious one, both books and movies. Not really a big reader tho. Guyver is an awesome series.

| 24 Jun 2009 | Derek ´Hendercrazy´ Henderson | Loading...Hey there Perrie! Thought I’d drop by and take a look at your work.
I can definitely see the comic book influence in your art.  Glad to see that you’re trying various things to create different effects (traditional and digital) with your work. I especially like the Sabernieth pic and those character sheets of varied monsters.  Keep practicing and trying new art tools like you have been and you’ll notice continued improvement. Also keep expanding on your artistic vision and knowledge as well as visual references... these are all important parts to taking your art to new levels. - Derek Perrie Nicholas Smith replies: "Thanks Derek, for taking the time to come by.
I’m trying to bring that comic book style through more and more. That Sabernieth picture is quite old and i was considering taking it down, but seeing as people are still enjoying it i think i’ll leave it up. Thanks for the advice i’ll do the best with it that i can. Cheers." | |
