old sketches

Practice

Practice on my cintiq before a big commission. Tribute to a childhood character inspiration :) what sailor moon would look like in my style of concept art. Weird! I think the pencil chicken scratch looks cooler

little less than 2 hours

I needed to not think for 1.5 hours

I'll come up with a story if I ever decide to finish this. I just needed some time to not think about anything. Such a busy week, and big decisions are made tomorrow about my future.

Art dump for the day. I wish I could do this everyday.

Got a master copy, still-life, and another go at a conceptual landscape.

From pencil to photoshop

I did this painting for a class Saturday after the next where I'll be teaching concept art/digital painting for 3D club.  I know, I know, what I'm doing is 2D stuff, but trust me, you don't want to be designing your character in a 3D program. 3 hours, 30 minutes total.

3rd Environmental landscape

1 hour, 20 mins.

2nd environment landscape

1-1.5 hr because I had a lot of trouble with left building.

With my entry:

"Sylvanas stands on a rocky pedestal in New Agamand (post-cataclysm), surrounded by her loyal, reanimated minions with mementos of her past both held in her hand and placed near her feet.

Sylvanas is an icon of success, strength and perseverance from impossible odds, and her story is intertwined with my own family story. In this painting, Sylvanas reflects my parents, who overcame great odds to come to America after being chased away from their homeland. From the strength and support of others, my parents are able to give me the future they never got to have.

Although Sylvanas bears mementos of her past, she recognizes the need to move forward in order to lead her people toward prosperity."
