Discovery of a Fallen Giant

I'm done! So this was for the Imagine FX art challenge, "Illustration for an RPG game". This illustration is of a made up RPG, so don't go trying to guess what game it's from.

Next up.....! Fairytale Illustration for a Movie poster with a celebrity as the main characters. yummmm.

I guess I'll speak a bit more about what has been going on:

I had my low for the month, but things are looking forward! I learned alot while being unsure of alot of things. I figured out my process a little more.

Need to do 12 paintings for class still. My finalized theme for the paintings, is a flowing and continuous naked figures that is disappearing into perspective. yey!

Learning alot about painting in my figure painting class, fortunately! In my painting class, it's more like painting practice time. Learn thru experience.

Almost Spring break, and I have lots of plans of enjoyment with friends and my cutie dearest!

Til next time, every...bodyyyyyy!

few more adjustments...

...but almost done!


I wanna give a shout out to Andrew! Who help me and kept me going on this. Best art director and friend I'll ever have. :)

This was a frustrating piece, but thru all the struggle and attempts at doing this illustration, I believe I've come out of this alot more knowledgeable and stronger. Lets hope my next illustration will come out alot more smoother than the last. hehe.

humm..

Almost...there...

A wip....

...thats not going very smoothly. I can't seem to color this. I've hit my occasional "colorist's block".


:(

I can draw stuff, just not color. This is due on Monday for the challenges I'm making it for, but it looks like I will miss another challenge yet again. Self peace within myself is at a low for today. I am so overwhelmed with all the different brushes out there. I would/could do things traditionally, but I haven't done traditional since.... over 3 months ago. And my memory is not the best when it comes to short term learned skills, like water coloring or gouache-ing. I may have been good at it once, but after not doing it for a long time I've forgotten.



Here is my still life painting that I've been working on for the longest time for painting class. Teacher seemed pretty pleased about it. I'm actually content and feeling 100% sure that its done.

And last but not least, some panels I drew in for Film Language class. That class is fun btw. Would not wanna major in it tho.

FInished poster and... a wip

A challenge piece for CG Hub that I didn't finish on time.

Men in the Moon Challenge @ CGhub WIP

Need to work on the girl more. It's getting there!

Wip 2 of the Hellboy Assignment

This is due Wednesday! AhhhhH!!

Oh and I just found out that the Portfolio Review for Megacon is next Tuesday. Oy, I don't know if I have enough to show the judging panel.

To make this clear, my illustration class just got the word last week that the Megacon Trip was back on. This trip is a highlight for Illustration students to show what they have and possibly get money from it! Limited number of students are chosen to represent Ringling. Mostly upperclassmen, but they do try to take atleast 1 or so sophomore(s).

Daft Punk inspired art!

I just can't get enough of their stuff sometimes. Especially with the new Tron movie looming.
Oh yea, and I seriously just did this instead of hw. *gasp!*

Color roughs for Media on 50% size drawings - after rendering drawing completely, and then progress on hellboy illustration.... Need to redraw pose! Look for reference! Serious business.

Revised Hellboy Illustration!

Regular Brightness

Adjusted Brightness

We are now doing a color version of the Hellboy assignment. We had the choice to just color our old black and white illustration or come up with another concept. I decided to draw another. This time I decided I wanted to make myself into a summoner. I have a lion-like mount from which I cast arcane magic on. hehe.

Having some trouble with color, since I have a certain handicap in color theory, but with help from friends and my instructor, I believe my progress is coming along nicely.

Oh yea! And my Illustration teacher really liked my Red Riding Hood illustration! YEY!

Red Riding Hood Final Illustration

This is the illustration before I added lettering onto it.

Mixed Media: bleach, pastel pencil, color pencil, goache

process work...

...for Red Riding Hood assn.

Illust Entry

...Which didn't get in, but was fun to do nontheless.

Made out of paper cuts. I dedicated this piece to my roommate.


I am currently reading, "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" and so far I am enjoying it. I ended up buying 4 issues of the comic book version of this, and to be honest, I think thats all I am going to buy from that series. Because the comic book is word for word from the book with illustrations. The illustrations aren't bad, but they are so spectacular that I'd wanna buy the comic book series just for that. Especially since I can just read the story thru the book, and in a way not ruin the visuals I have created in my head already.

I also started reading the Surrogates, which is what the movie is based on. As far as I hear, the movie doesn't do it justice. My opinion on the graphic novel itself is very positive. The style that is used inside is a mix of what looks like ink pen and photoshop. Now talk about art that gives me a reason to keep reading - this graphic novel has it. Very interesting concept too for a sci-fi genre. People that adopt android bodies and use that body instead for everyday things instead of their fleshy selves, which lays in a reclined seat the whole time as they are doing VR in their androids.

As for artist inspiration, really digging Adam Hughes style right now. If you haven't heard of him, his art is very awesome.

And speaking of artists, I still don't get what the hype is about Frazetta. Not attracted to his art style at all, nor do I see anything amazing about him compared to the other artists of 'ol.

To end this unusually long post, my next project is Red Riding Hood for Illustration I, and I think I have a pretty good idea going. Updates will be made for that shortly!
