Good versus Evil...plus Nahna

This is the finished Nahna piece. I almost have the tutorial part of it done, so I'll be posting that here shortly as well. (Just a few more fun details to make it look nice) 



So as labeled, these two gentlemen are the Archangels, Lucifer and Michael. I did these sketches for the last story boarding project in Barry Kooser's Creative Vis. class - in which I will depict the final battle of the First Angelic War and the following Fall of Lucifer. These are indeed exciting times. ^^

Nahna WIP

This is a Work In Progress: sketches, value studies, and the progress thus far on new character named Nahna (Tentatively). Trying a legit render on this one, so far so good. Not hating it and not missing my line art "soul." About 2-4 hours in for the whole process right now. Also trying to move quickly...so back to work!!!

More Sketches!!


Some Life Drawing practice for my D&D character, Fyedka. Good fun. POSE REFERENCE BY THE LOVELY SENSHISTOCK.
 




 Some photos of the model I built for the Naru Residence. Made of Bristol Paper, Illustration board and foam core base....and lots of tape. As I was building this I was kindly informed that I could just build it in SketchUp, taking only minutes as opposed to an evening. But I had fun using my HANDS and HOLDING it - just more substantial, more of an achievement in my eyes. Of course now I have to figure out how to store it...or finish it...hmmm.






More speed paintings!! My cell phone, my flash drive, my shiny new Olfa knife and the keyboard in front of me. Not really crazy objects, but surprisingly challenging none the less.

Quick Post Before They Tell Me to Pack Up For the Night



Creature from Creative Visualization Project. I was thinking: "...PUKEKOS ARE LIKE DINOSAURS." And that's where my thought process ended. lol


 This is a random character I made to try something more tech-ish. Twisted it into a cheesy advertisement. 


 Repainted Environment and process from Comp. 2. Still not happy with it, but it looks LOADS better than round one did. ><


Character for Grad Portfolio. This is the Emperor from AS:BR - essentially the bad guy. Trying to expand on race, genre, and age. He was well reviewed by my immediate peers which was definitely a nice boost that I needed to suddenly become more productive.^^ Thanks guys!
