My portfolio needs YOUR help!

I decided to do more colour paintings for the portfolio. I've been collecting reference - all kinds of colour paintings I might learn something useful from.

If you have a couple of minutes, please, post links to one or two fantasy book covers, RPG covers or just colour illustrations/paintings YOU think are awesome.

Thanks in advance!

    @Nirvana: Thank you! It's a nice painting, pity it's not in colour though. :(

    I'm a huge fan of Tracy Butler's earlier work, although her current Lackadaisycats Webcomic is still superb.

    Hope you can glean some inspiration out of there...

    Zdravím, už je to leta, co jsem ti vezl zelený štít :) Tvoje obrázky se mi líbí, už se těším na DrD 2.0. Atmosférou velmi dobré, občas jen pochybuju o správné anatomii. Z mého Best Of:

    http://ravenari.deviantart.com - génius symbolismu, i když trochu monotematický (a lidi má divný)
    http://whiteraven90.deviantart.com - mistr perokresby, úžasné ornamenty a nestvůry
    http://viag.deviantart.com/gallery/ - originální, nevtíravá barevnost a impresionistické vyznění.

    + zajdi si do NG v Praze. Je tam spousta materiálu na inspiraci, vč. architektury. Foťák nebo skicák tajně sebou, zvlášť v neděli tam nebývá ani noha * Sindor
