The Art of René Campbell


I am René Campbell, and this is my art blog! I'm female, 19, and live in Adelaide, Australia. I study Marine Biology during the day, work as a bartender by night, and draw everywhere and anywhere inbetween!

Edited various mistakes; looks much better now. Bare in mind I haven’t started shading, colouring or rendering, even for the most of the background. So here’s another sketch of the two main characters. I found a good reference of a Frost Dragon, so I scrapped Alduin, as the background no longer seemed fitting (and he lacks good references). I am aware there’s something wrong with the composition, but I can’t quite figure it out. Critiques/ideas/suggestions would be appreciated!

  1. godofindifference said: I think the composition is fine, I think though with the dragon where he is, he would be blocking a lot of the light along that path. If you were to add in that shadow the perspective would turn out a little more. Just a suggestion though.

  3. galahawk said: The area beween them needs something more going on with it, like dust the dragon whipped up with its wings or footprints or even a little bit of the dragon’s elemental breath coming from its mouth. Just the path seems a little bland.
  4. plasmaterial said: I think it would help if they were aligned along the path more. Other than that, it looks fantastic
