I got home from vacation today, posting will resume shortly, I've got some new stuff to share. Now it's time for sleep as I have a very early shift in the morning.

I'm experimenting with some new techniques when doing my speedpaints. This one feels like it's heading in a better direction and gives me much more variation. Corel Painter XI, about 20 minutes.

This piece is based off of the story of Rex Nemoransis. I think I can push the focal point to be a bit more clear, but I'm happy with the way this turned out on the whole. Corel Painter XI.

These are speedpaint comps for a small personal series I'm working on. A cliff-side, palace-like mausoleum. Each speedpaint took no more than 15 minutes. Corel Painter XI.

An updated version of my space captain character. The face still feels a bit ambiguous to me. I'm gonna sort that out soon.

Corel Painter XI.

I'm graduamated now :D

Updates will resume promptly tomorrow and continue until I'm no longer breathing hahaha.

Finals are next week, so this blog is going to be on a bit of a hiatus until it's all over. Stay tuned!

Sketchbook page of me having some fun with a giant worm monster. The bottom stuff is just bonus silliness. Ball-point pen.

This bugged me. This is a commission drawing I did and it was great in sketch form. When I took it into Photoshop to make it digital, it fell apart. On top of that, it took a lot long time, which makes it even more irritating. After looking at some digital drawings of some artists I look up to, I can see where I went wrong. I'm using this drawing as a reminder to use methods that enable to work more quickly with better results.

The patron liked it so all is well. The character is not mine and it belongs to its respective owner.

When I was working on my Astronomer painting, I started with a completely different idea in mind, one that I still very interested in going back to. These comps represent that vision. It was more along the idea of an Austin Powers-ish evil supervillian labratory. These comps will probably get put to good use in the future.
