Undies, opera won't get my love, okay. It never gets any love at all xD
And kakajade, you still have a long way to go. Just texture more and try to understand what exactly looks good in textures of the pros. Try to copy them at first (not like ripping off their stuff, but copying the style to understand what exactly is good about it).
If you need any references, I'm more than happy to help you with that. But be sure to not rip off anyone's works or plagiarize. That's a big no-no.
Also, you could check out some tutorials. We have plenty of good ones now.
For example, I really enjoyed
this one.
I also would suggest you to start browsing
deviantart. Watching (and especially analyzing) other people's artwork helps to get better yourself. And you can look up for some tutorials in there aswell.
Btw, what program do you use for drawing?
Saeq, saying the truth is appropriate at all times, but the way you express it matters. You don't want to scare people off from making art, do you? >:C
It just requires a lot of work. Nothing more, nothing less. There's no such thing as "talent".
Also, we got a little room today aswell( about 4 of us ;o)
But then Undies and me decided to play some gotham city impostors xd
Apparently, he's quite pro at shooters...
eh...
