Hi!

Here is some new & old work i did mainly as concept art. The Desert Sea picture has been redone a few times. Oh well, here is a little more info on them... =)

Gladiator Master
This is an image created as a concept during development of a game. The main goal was to capture a certain mood and to find something which we could hold on to during the entire production. I was inspired by the movie Gladiator and Ben Hur. Making this sketch was pretty fun and was completed in aprox. 2 days as i like to jump inbetween paintings.

Desert Sea
This image was something i had in my had for a long time. I didnt really know where to start on this one and i had some troubles with the perspective. People have asked me if i created 2 focal points by intention and the answer is yes. I wanted to eye to be busy =) and the composition is based on guiding the eye through the picture in a circular manner. I personaly see many flaws in this picture but i like the mood. There could be more sharper edges here and there, more depth achieved with help of colors but im still learning.

Indeed. In the first one, the gladiators stand out of the scene. You would need to fix the tone.

thank you guys;)

Twisted Imperia: It took me aprox. 3 days as i said i work on other pieces while one is in progress. I use mainly Photoshop, but I also use 3d software for creating "block models". I like to experiment with different techniques. For Desert Sea I pretty much mixed photo/3d elements with digital painting. But as i said, need to keep those edges sharp at times but im 18 and still learning=)
Thx for your comment, i really appreciate it.

Cheers
