...giant robot

Something I've been messing with the last few nights.  I wish I had a clear direction in the beginning.  It would have eliminated a lot of headache.  

more knife

another pallet knife study and some sketchez

Rooster

              Another quick pallet knife study...I also used a brush in places but tried to keep it very minimal.

Rocket sauce?

I've been playing through Borderlands again in anticipation for the sequel next month.  This guy is heavily inspired by that game.

sketchezzz

1.5 hour speedpaint

Speed painting from a couple of weeks ago.  The assignment was to use a large brush the whole time to avoid going into detail.  From the movie "In Time"

Sketch Dump

Sketches and gestures

Some speedies from tonight.  Didn't have any real direction just trying to be spontaneous.

Scribble

Still in work...

This first one was the initial doodle I had before trying to turn it into an "epic underground cave castle" with the dead city all around it.  Still trying to solve lots of problems with this one.  

I am going to work out some different costume design iterations for the chick because she's a little too vague.  Still need to figure out the story.

2 Hour Studies

6 hours / Acrylic on Board

Mindless doodle

Nearly Finished!

Acrylics on canvas

Been working on this for a while now and it's about finished.  Still need to work on the guy a bit more and then I will call it done.  It's been a very challenging painting but overall I think it turned out pretty good.  Not sure about the exact size but I'll post that and a better photo when I post the finished version.  Thanks for looking!

City Fishin'

Morning sketch turned into something...  still needs a lot of work...

Sketches / Doodles / Gestures

^^Maxim Revin study ^^

I love all of his work!!  I was trying to work on edge control and indication of form without over rendering.  I  have to tendency to noodle too much so I am trying to break that by doing these studies.  It was a fun study but I am sorry I ruined his beautiful space ship...

Loenid Enin study

I really love the way Enin paints so I wanted to try a study to see if I could learn more about being impressionistic.  It's a laughable execution but I did learn some things.  I plan on doing more studies of his work. 1.5 hr

and some concept homework...

more homework

giant sketches

Trying to understand and convey the proportions of something massive.

more things

Joe Mad style study

Some sketches and rough story beats.  I also tried a Joe Mad style study.  The guy is a bad ass!

sketching with a rough brush I made tonight.  I kinda like it maybe it will allow me to be more impressionistic.  

And a work in progress
