Sketch and artwork updates

been doing some paintings and sketches lately and working on more to catch up on my skills so they don't get rusty. I've managed to get around to finish up the crab with a sandy background and some rocks but getting there, will need some white since I ran out so I had to improvise. still working on it and will let it dry first before get some paints needed to add a bit of layering. And will work on the top as some works and bit of shading later.

The latest one is a sketch of a creature I'm working on as a fire-based character from one of my childhood drawings as a kid and decided to go through my old sketches and remake them after all these years, making this character more agile, flexible with his extended tendrils in place of fires and have the body made up of armor and stone-like skin with the fire coming out of the gaps including the head. Was inspired by the balrog when I first saw it years ago when it first came out and made this. 

This one I did recently based on a watercolored portrait from my sketchbook when I was in college and make a new one on a canvas art using acrylic paint. Made certain to use a photo to help know the color and shading to get the texture right for the feathers and trees. Wanting to take more time drawing and painting while job hunting to be a good artist as I can be to get these noticed, so doing more as I can with more sketches for ideas for future projects.

So what do you guya think of this so far, finally got around to finish up the crab with a sandy background and some rocks but getting there, will need some white since I ran out so had to improvise. still working on it and will let it dry first before get some paints needed to add a bit of layering. And will work on the top as some works and bit of shading later.

Will add another post when I get some more touches to it

Winter wonderland

So this might have been later but here was a portrait in blue water colour theme for a snowy winter as a Christmas gift for my grandmother’s friend, she asked me to make something of a landscape for her. Took a thought of what to make but since I thought Christmas was coming up, I thought why not make a winter wonderland theme but use blue water colour paints as a try out. Did a few that didn’t work so decided to do one in the day with faint blueish sky and snow, darker blue for the distance and trees. I shown it to my grandmother and she really liked it, even her friend thought it was really good so that was worth a Christmas present.

Peacock portrait

Did some watercolour using photos I’ve taken from a trip awhile ago and used them together to make a group portrait of peacocks, first time doing one with feathers but like how they look so far. 

The grass I thought to use my brush to make soft texture, same for the rough feathers for the smaller birds and leave some white areas where they have lighter colours

New comic

Been working on a comic for awhile and planned out ideas for characters and story arcs, thought to start out for a pilot issue and see what others would think of it. It is the reboot version of the New Genesis idea but decided to go for an open world setting but a similar story and races, earth will be mentioned as a group of humans or a possible new race evolved after long periods of time away from earth, some would consider it a myth or unable to find their ancestral home world like the other three races brought to the alien planet they inhabit. I will inform you all following my blog when the first issue is up. So in the meantime here are the sneak peaks of pages and a cover I’m working on.

Updats: Water colour portraits.

Been doing some painting over the summer and uploading some now here to show what I've been doing. So apologies for the delay and here's what I've been done.

Basically taken some snapshots of animals like the peacocks and thought to make a flock together using photos of some I've taken. Wanting to get the grass look right and tapped it to make patterns and different shades of green. Working on the feathers and will update the finished version of the portrait.

  

The next one I thought to make a wolf and originally inspired by House Start's emblem using colours and make the fur and background a winter theme. Worked on the shading and go a small frame for it to show how it looks after printing a copy for display.

Demon swordsman and Tank mech (working progress)

so been doing some sketches for certain characters and maybe some advice or help be nice while working on them. based on the original sketches I did as a kid and wanting to redesign them.

One of the characters I drew was inspired by General Grievous from the original clone wars animated movie, and wanting it to look somewhat like a demonic swordsman with multi arms. So for the idea for him be to change the swords or redesign them as some sort of trophies he claimed from previous battles he won and drew some sort of tank mech and gave it a tail (not sure why lol) but for the new version will look better without it. So will work on them more like the others I will upload shortly.
