Dutyr WIP

Getting there... still some work to go into it, lol.

I really do not like starting with black and white unless I plan on doing it all in black and white until the end. Now I have to keep pushing the values and colors in many directions until I find the color that I like. I guess it is more like actual paints, but it's a pain and very time consuming. :\

Other than that, I like it so far. :)

First day of ENV studies!

Since I felt like my characters and animals are pretty solid for the most part, I would go to one of my weaknesses... ENVIRONMENTS!

I tried searching for structure and architectural tutorials, but everyone just goes the easy way out and does some snowy mountains or something for tutorials, lol. I figured the next best thing is to pull up references and start doing that everyday instead of my life studies (well, maybe I will go back and do those ever once in a while to make sure I do not get rusty).

All the top half was done by reference. The last one I did out of my own head. My head started to break, so I defaulted to some characters for my comic at the bottom. :P

I hope to stay motivated to keep doing this. If I do, I will post more as I go! :D

Lizard (Now with a new brush!)

Testing out a new brush. I will play with it a little more before I decide if I will continue using it or not. :)

Realism VS Idealization

I randomly stumbled across this interesting article on Realism VS Idealization.

It is interesting to see what they try to sell us and what is actually being sold.

Hellion WIP

I saw a few magic cards as I was surfing the web and decided to take a stab at their format.

Still fiddling with it as this is just a WIP and still have tons of stuff to add that I think would add more to the mood! :)
