Still lifez

Finished this one up, good good. It's a broken Christmas bulb, a diet Pepsi can on top of a little dark blue book thing.

Hope the colors and shit look ok, I was listening to someone talk about monitor calibration half way through painting this and decided I should do something about that. Even the most basic of basic stuff I did totally fucked my screen, stuff looks better now but no wonder all my stuff looked crazy on other monitors!   Hope stuff is better than it was, can't really afford to go out a buy a calibration thingy.

Blah blah

I've decided two things. One, I need to be doing way more work. Two, I'm sick of making up titles for shit.

Here are the first two pages I started keeping of a digital sketchbook, I really should make a sketchbook on CA but I think I'll stick to lurking there a bit longer.  Just more work today, drew a little this morning on paper but got sucked into doing digital the rest of the day....SUCKED IN.

 

Mr. Wings!

Just finished this one up! Onto a new project, maybe I'll spend the next few days doing some intensive studies!

Forgot about this one.

I forgot to ass this one, so I'll just throw it into a new post. Did it a few days ago, just another study.

Studies...wing dude

Look at that girl, with her titt'ays all out saying...hey...look at those titt'ays.

Angel doods, colors coming soon.

Screamy Elf Dude

I finished this one up pretty fast for how long it used to take me to do work. Only about 5 - 6 days, about 20 hours. I could have had it done faster if i didn't have to work every other day and keep up with my studies. But I can tell I've been getting faster since i started doing them in February.

I also managed to save out a half decent progress shot, hope blogger will let me keep the file big, it always seems to make my pictures smaller than I save them as.

Well, onto the next one! Hopefully something a tad more involved with a background and a monster or two! I'll post a working sketch when I get one worked up!

Super happy fun time art!

Whew, been awhile since I posted!

Took forever but I finished up that elf girl painting a bit ago and just hadn't gotten around to posting it on here. Still not much for making progress files so none for her, but I should have something for the next illo I almost have done!

 That's just about the best Illo I've done to date, paint wise anyway. The pose and comp are pretty static but I was trying to focus more on getting a polished paint. I think I painted the thing about 3 different times! lol

In my last post I put up the drawing and b/w sketch if you're interested.

I haven't been updating even with studies because I've been trying to draw more on paper and work more on my fundamentals, and with out a scanner I can't really post those. But I did feel like getting back to the computer and painting studies was important so I did a still life last night/this morning. I need to do way more of these!   I think this took me maybe 5 hours, all in photoshop, done mostly on a single layer.
