Sol

So Paul’s working on a little project of his own and it will eventually require artwork. This is a perfect opportunity to do some sketching and hopefully, in the end, painted pieces for his little project:

The slideshow above just shows the sort of process I went through to outline this character’s design. I initially started with a sketch, overlayed the line work to blue so that I could apply a digital sketch over it, cleaning it up and applying a green drafted background. The next step will be to apply depth to the character, shading and eventually colour.

While using various images from books (Anatomy for Fantasy Artists by Glenn Fabry), using the model’s poses to build the muscle tones and the facial structure. I used a number of images from google images to construct features such as the old man face, the way the tunic might fold and the stance of the character.

I also took pictures of my own hands for the position of the characters hands. This helped a lot. Next step, Sol-Omnipotent.

Another Art Piece

Here’s a piece that I drew a couple of days ago. It’s an art piece for my card game in design, unfortunately I can’t just show off the game using any old art so I am applying my own. The machine is called a Scrap Giant, mainly because of its obvious size against the cliffs that it is leaning on and also because it looks like it’s about to fall apart and is uneven in its design:

Stopmotion Awesomation

It comes across as the same sort of quality as Fatanstic Mr. Fox. I was just pondering the neither ends of youtube for a number of stop motion animations and found this little golden nugget. Fantastic, plus its got bunnies in it. So watch people and bask in its amazement.

Just For a Bit of Humour

Suicide in C sharp

Crazy Magic Stunt

The Magic Show

Just to show off some amazement and humour. Not relevant to anything that I am doing at the moment but thought you might like to see. If we want to consider as something slightly relevant, then its a small idea of the stuff I take inspiration from, for wacky ideas and sometimes just to amaze me.

Also get to make a new category called irrelevant.
