Zombie Gorillas!?!?!?


Practicing texture and value, I feel a constant pull between simplification and just deep rendering, however when this tug-a-war is over I've settle for something, or maybe never settle for anything. I think it's the comics I've been reading lately where the simplification of things makes for really good story telling, but then I began looking at Charles Vess and Frank Frazetta, which is on the opposite spectrum of David Aja, etc.


More to be on this page... I think.


Hmmmmmm, good enough, got other stuff to do, I'll probably add more value to the path leading to the dark spot and the ground that the elephant is on.

I think this page needs color...

Ketchup Sundays (Fanart)


Trying a brushpen / croquil combo
I don't think it's dynamic enough to exaggerate the arm like I did...


Introduced to me by my friend Yulin




Another one, fuck hands!

The Killer Is Dead


Roughs




Pleasure and Violence


Could keep a Black/Red/Yellow/White color scheme



Liking the dynamic-ism of this one more, and just funner for me to draw in general, now to work on the final pencils and get the pose/villain right.

Ink Brushing This Shit In a New Sketchbook

Why didn't I do ink and brush sooner?

This will be where all the ink stuff will be placed.

Dynamic Figure Gestures

All of the poses can be found here, great for studies:







Update: Dead, and have been in extreme vegetation, no seriously. Slowly making a comeback...



It's more noticeable with the back one, but I make the bust more compressed in height than it really is.


Ashby if you're reading this, yes I stole your bust. Cause I knew you would never notice. Is it called stealing, or charitable refuge?...


Feeling meh about this one.

Stephanie Brown

While it's probably not healthy to start many projects and not finish one and then start another, it's kind of how I like to do things right now, jump from one to another in hopes that I learn something new in one that I can apply in the other, trying a different process with this one than the Will Graham one, see if it takes me anywhere. If I do any updates to either of the 3 projects (let's just keep it at 3....) it'll be on that post.










Update: Sometimes I wonder if the images in my head are way over my skill level...no I know that they are...

It needs more structure, lighting to be solidified, forms fleshed out.

Gonna head home... and probably work on the UFC fighter...










update: Gonna eat dinner...

UFC Fighter Tonal Study

Quick Study before bed (gotta wake up at 4... *Grumbles)

Using Alexandre Zedig Diboine's brushes, I think I have an easier time understanding laying down tones/paint with his simple all you can get brush, it's rough and just a rectangle, so I'm liking that aspect, might use this brush to go over Will Graham's face tomorrow using that and then do the tight clean ups using Dan Luvisi's. Keep this one updated the more time I spend on this one.
