Workshop

Hey guys, its been too long since an update once again. Today was the first day of the massive black workshop, which was a lot of fun, met a lot of great people and looking forward to the next couple of days.  Here are a couple of assignments from class, creature design, digital illustration, self portrait in charcoal and an old isometric piece from perspective class. enjoy :)

27.10.11

Here is some stuff I have been working on this week, a figure drawing in graphite on illustration board, I am currently trying to build up a bit of a portfolio of both concept design work and traditional work, and seeing I havent done much digital concept stuff, im working on producing some character sheets. So there is a work in progress of a character sheet, all in different stages of development. Our class assignment this week is to do a full illustration, I decided to to a battle scene :) It has been alot of fun so far, the challenge will be to keep it loose, and not make it look to rigid. I think I will go with the color scheme in the top right. enjoy

hatching

A couple more cross hatching studies. Both great models, the poses were about 2 hours each.

sketchbook update

 A small sketchbook update for you guys. I went and drew my mate scott while he tattooed on the weekend which was alot of fun, seeing the whole process and set up. I painted in watered down gouache, all in a small moleskin, one is just a sketchbook and the other was a landscape watercolour book. The gouache worked alot better in the watercolour pad as you can see. Some head studies that I have done in the coffee shop and the life model portrait from last week, which was about 2 hours. The head studies are about 5 - 10 minutes done in ball point pen :)

Conquistador!

This started off as an in class portrait done in graphite, approximately 2 hours. Which I then photographed and played around with it in photoshop. Its still a work in progress, so hopefully update it soon, also have been doing alot sketchbook drawing this wkend, so ill be scanning that and posting it soon.

steampunk!

The assignment last week was to design a steam punk hero, gladiator brute, or a witch doctor villain... or any of these combined. Here are the thumbnails and character paints for my steampunk hero's. I worked on some others which ill upload a little later.

Figure Painting

Took a figure painting class over the summer with Zimou Tan, which was alot of fun, and I felt like I learned alot. First time I have really sat down and painted the model from life. The smaller oil studies are 11 x 14 canvas board and the 4 figure composition is 32 x 46 inches. Enjoy!
