Xayide Orthograph

Here's the ortho of Xayide, the painting I posted before this one. I made some design changes that made more sense to me, like simplifying the dress so it's less distracting. I added more details to back in case you play her in 3rd person. I was also thinking of the animation of the cloth and hair jewelry as well as the way the shoulder blade plate scallops to allow more motion when raising her arms.

CGMW Character class

I've been taking a character design from Izzy through CGMW and here are some of the latest assignments from that class. I'd like to make some changes to the final piece here, when the class slows down or I find some time otherwise. I'll be posting more of my assignments as I get farther in.

Dreamscape Final

I'm almost there on this one. After talking to a friend about conflict in an image, (ty Law) I decided to go with a little girl in the scene to balance the evil in the plant creature. I polished this up a bit and submitted it to CG Society.

Dreamscape B&W Comp

I've still got a good amount of work do on this yet but I feel it's getting there nicely. I'm going to fix some contrast issues with the background. As well as fixing edges and general polish. Then I'll get to adding color.

Dreamscape Thumbnails

I'm working on a couple things on the side right now but I'm trying to focus on the "Dreamscape" contest on CG Society.  I'll post my progress on it soon.

Coloring from sketchbook

Since it's a new year, I decided get off my ass and start posting again. Here's some doodles I decided I wanted to color. I'll be posting more in the weeks to come.

Watercolors at the Locks

I've been wanting to get out and paint at the locks for a while but never got to it until now. I'm starting with tonal studies then I'll move on to color soon. Watercolors are still kinda foreign to me but with time I think I'll get use to painting this way. I like how I have to be deliberate with my brush strokes. It's nice to just "nut up or shut up" when painting. :)
