Cold, very cold here

More Perspective

Got to work more on the perspective. they take longer then natural environments and it's a little more ridged. However it's another discipline to practice.

Green Metal

today's efforts.

Got out of a rut

Re-designed agent red from yesterdays post. Had a couple of days there of slow production. So I went back to basics and did some anatomy gestures to loosen up. Also went through the proper design process for myself. yesterday I wanted to paint straight to colour and to put it mildly: I got in my own way.  I got to design then render. I admire the people that can do the 2 at the same time. I'll work towards that, but for now here is what I got today. I wanted to do a quick one, this one took a little longer then I wanted. Got to work harder.
Had a good day today ;)

Ink metal

A image I have had in my head for some time now. Ink metal!!!

oh come on!

Another in my favorite subject: unfair fights. Struggled with this one. It went from a walker climbing a cliff to one standing in the water. Finally found something interesting and I was able to put this one to rest.  I need to work harder to not have this happen.

Film Studies

"all good things must come to a end"

Lost my job on Monday, here is a couple of things not really related to my job. A coder, and designer, and a artist got together and developed a idea. It wasn't Krome related it just happened at work. Here they are, the first 2 are the direction the guy in charged was happy with. The third was the original direction but after it was done it was decided to "darkish". he didn't want that much colour but colour full. The top 2 are how I tried to solve that problem. There was suppose to be a 3rd one in the set, a witch. oh well...

Nautilus

Nautilus speedy, got to do more speedys

Frustration thumbs

frustration thumbs, working on composition

alone

Trying to figure out my brush set. experementing with texture, and controling the focal point.

"it's so damn hot"

 "It's so damn hot.... " couldn't sleep yesterday night so for some reason I thought of this.

"Maybe tomorrow I'll find a home"

The littlest Hobo... sort of

Cold spring Mech

Recently I got a good critic on my work. And one of the things mentioned was how I have a hard time  over working every part of the painting. I think part of it is insecurity over the painting not looking finished. The other is not planning well enough. So here I am trying to loosen up and control were I want the eye to go.
Also doing a lot of photo texture I had the impulse for some brush texture.
