Some Images I've Made Recently
I'm trying to develop my painting skills with a tablet. So this month I started making images at a leisurely pace. I've decided to post the results here so that I have a reason to keep making more.

In chronological order:

A view of my tearful farewell at the airport



A woman with a lion, on a train.



A couple of mechanics and an x-wing



A bison in the winter (sourced from a photograph from the Natural Unseen Hazards Blog. I don't know where they got it)



And finally some sort of space battle between a Dreadnaught class cruiser and a Strike class cruiser.

Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
We've gotta get the X-wing and the battle into FotG.  Keep it up!

 
Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
I like the X-wing one, has this WWII vibe. Is there a source for it, or did you draw it yourself?

Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
It was a dry Christmas art-wise. I got a bit done, and then I got Starcraft 2  ;). I only just got started again today with the picture of the rock trucks.

Chronological order:

Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
Your skills are rather commendable. It's not often one comes across this particular style (it's been a few years since my last art class, so I can't remember it's name) and especially one that's done well.

She was watching Community, and I had to draw her. I directed her pose, obviously. Nobody watches tv like that. :)

As for the style, I have no idea. I always like Manet. He had some nice light in his paintings, so maybe I'm drawing some inspiration from him.

 
Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
Some work from the past week. I'm trying to put together a portfolio/ build some skills, but it'd very tempting to just do nothing. I get to work in the morning and and can't choose between reading a book, playing SC2, fiddling around with various 3d programs, drawing, doing nothing listening to music, watching a movie. Somehow drawing seems to filter down to the bottom. So anyways:

This is a concept for something I want to make, possibly my first foray into zbrush. His heads not small, the armour is just big. It was inspired by marines from warhammer and starcraft both. Their bodies couldn't possibly wear that armour without being seriously deformed (ie widely spaced arms, legs that are really long) So I figured, hey, why not just stick the wearer in the torso. The final effect is rather bizarre, which is nice.



And this one is just from a blurry photo I took. The lighting was cool, so I drew it.

Now that you mention it, space marines are freaky.

Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
Your style reminds me a lot of Kimmo Lemetti's work.

Re: Some Images I've Made Recently
So here's some more work from this month. Went to a couple model sessions, and picked the best from them.

First session, done with a sharpie:



The session I went to today, done in Photoshop:

Apparently that's what people liked to look at before computer screens.

People still like looking at naked people :)  A lot of those old masters' paintings were just softcore pornography dressed up as classical mythology. After a while it just became the quintessential artistic activity. Plus, model sessions are cheaper than going to a movie.

Not much to show lately
