Round Two


So this morning I looked at the last post I entered and I was pretty unhappy. It just wasn't what I thought it should look like so I repainted it today. Used some good old Star Wars reference. God those guys were awesome model builders. I still have to finish the model's legs and it has tons of holes to be filled. Any how I really like the shiney gun barrels covered in blast dirt.

mech_paint_over


Went back to an old model i had been working on. Still have plenty to do on the model. This is a paint over of a render of that model, just like the transformer. I want to add that there is a new modeler at work who is inspiring me to get back into high poly stuff. I'm big time rusty.

creature design


Very happy with this guy so far. Still painting on it here and there. I owe a huge thanks to everyone I talk art with at work. Suggestions were made and they all really helped me get this piece to this point. So thanks guys, you all are wicked smart.

portrait painting

When I started this painting I was scared and unsure. I found myself creeping slowly around in my mark making. I HATE THAT MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD. I started over in pure anger. I forced myself to have purpose and even felt some delicate desicions creeping in towards the end. I also had session number 2 with the pirate painting and am pretty happy. Its changing.

Having fun




hello everyone, today I preached a little about celebrating achievements along the way. I can't stress how important it is as artists to do that. These 3 pages were picked out of a bunch. A little sketchbook art contest to celebrate seeing and understanding form a little better.
I think I'm going to pick a winner and paint it. Let me know which one u like the most.................or I could just say here's some more half finished shit........lol

Pirate_designs

Hello everyone. These are some old ideaologies and a painting I have been working on for some time. Something I came up with while working on this is a definition for a geometric plane. So hear it is. A plane is a shelf for light. I like that alot....lol

Frazetta Tribute




Frank Frezetta died yesterday and I wanted to post a little tribute. I like so many others love Frazettas work. If I had to descibe a Frazetta painting in one word I would say masterful. He had an insane ability to depict light and shade. The other thing about his work is it always looks as if he is having fun. That's a strange thing to say I guess but his stuff was so cool how could he not be. I'm also attaching my favorite Frazetta painting.
