Story

Been working on some university work this week. I was task with doing a story board in a group project so i spent a long while doing different parts of the story although admittedly i don't think the story was great my landscapes were kind of cool.

 

Really struggled doing interiors and this was the first time i've tried to make the focus of my landscapes characters so that was another aspect that i've struggled with. It's definitely given me something to focus on.

 

  A random concept and a very quick study from I am Legend nothing special. :)

  

Check back next week for another update

Take it slow

Been working hard on 3D stuff for some friends university work this week. Managed to fit in some quick studies in preparation for some pieces i will be doing for class. Japanese architecture is really quite complex! So i'm doing some story boards for a group project that is based in Japan so i decided to have a go at a few Japanese buildings and stuff just in case i decide to include that sort of stuff. I really like the colours they use in their designs.

This is the first part of my story board, spent about 4 or 5 hours total. Really need to work like this more often. I don't spend enough time on my studies sometimes need to work longer and harder! :)

Hope you like this new pieces, will post again next week!

Photomash & Studies

Been working hard lately on 3D stuff and some other game related things. However, since the start of April had a bit of free time to catch up on my painting studies!

These first 3 were done with my usually techniques, nothing special really, just some nice colours of rocks and greenery!

Tried out a new brush for this study, i don't often do buildings and stuff. So this church was way more complex than any buildings i've done before, i think i came out not to badly! Need to keep practicing things like this because it is definitely a week point.

Now for something completely different! This image is a concept that was created through photo mashing techniques and painting over, but i think it definitely came out a treat! The only thing about doing things like this is that sometimes you lose some of your freedom when focusing on using photo textures.

Will update next tuesday if you want to look my thread over on Conceptart.org you might see some things that you haven't seen before http://www.conceptart.org/showthread.php?t=259655#.UWRjDpOyB8E

Hope you liked this blog update!
