It almost feels like you're concept style comes from a comic book background. Thanks for the motivation to pick up the art pad tonight.

[BoBo_the_seal]

[Jay Evans]

wow, fantastic work. I really dig your clean line work in those barbarian hair pics. Whats your secret besides your obvious skills, haha. What program or tools do you use for your super clean line work? is it vector based, or just patience and a steady hand in photoshop. I think I need a mini-tutorial :)

[b1ll]

Dig it!

Stunning work, dude! Solid line work and great proportions on your characters. They just beg to be modelled in 3D!
Looking forward to seeing more work from you.

[monkeyboy_garth]

Popov-SM - cool stuff, mate! I see a lot of J.Scott Campbell and a little Adam Hughes in your work. The silhouettes, hands and linequality are definitely Campbell! Awesome work.

[Popov-SM]

[monkeyboy_garth]

No, I just meant that I can definitely see the influences there. Your stuff is awesome.

I realy love Your work, hot stuff !
All Your shapes are clean and precise.

more, more please.

[MALicivs]

amazing stuff dude!

[pior]

Still a real pleasure to the eyes!!!
May I ask you what tool you used on these, and at what scale? I love the sharp yet inky quality of your linework. It feels like paper media (not photoshoppy) but I may be wrong?

[Popov-SM]

.

[pior]

Hi there! Thanks for the clarification!
Yeah I totally agree on tablet work being such a pain fur stuff like this. One of the reason why I asked is that, is because sometimes I see artists painfully drawing/erasing/drawing again using a default round brush in PS just to get that result instead of simply grabbing a pigment liner and scan!

Keep up the awesome,

P

[Popov-SM]

.

[sub_roland]

as always, popov, the work goes right into the inspiration folder. keep up the beautiful work.

[Thegodzero]

I love it! Where have i seen your art before? Its going to drive me nuts! I know i have seen some of these before, or something with this same style. Do you do comics? I know i have seem your art before!
