Master and Servant 2D Entry: Kevin Maginnis


#18

a slightly different exploration in the composition. trying to bring things closer the camera. pushing the Sleeper further into the background.


#19

Whoa! You totally changed the composition… Are you settled on this? i kind of liked some of the stuff that was going on in the original composition, with the 2 or 3 heads instead of just the one… Also, Mr. Meat is now turned away from us… not sure if that is the right choice… but i could be convinced with the proper motivation…

it’s Mr. Steak! not Mr. Meat…geez after all the time we’ve known eachother too:) anyhow this is an experimental composition. After some brainstorming with some of our more creative coworkers I think I know where I’m gonna go with it. So no this isn’t the final composition just an experiment to get some feedback. Thanks though Chutneyhead…er Mutton.


#21

Man so many distractions! anyhow what’s new:) I took a week of free time (late evenings) to do a crazy character to warm up for this piece. here he is

So here’s the lineart I’m more or less settled on, going to let the painting process reveal to me what other ideas the picture has for itself.


#22

Finished up some lineart last night, slept on it and decided I didn’t like how open it was. So here is a better laid out version of the final lineart, start painting this bad boy tonite.


#23

NOW we’re talkin. This is an awesome composition. Me likey.

Only thing: Now we can’t see that Herr Sausage-Loaf is chopped in half… can he be flipped?

#24

Started up general color layout, lighting, etc.


#25

That’s quite a change since the last time i was here. The design got a lot better. I like the composition on this one too and the gesture of the characters. Good start on the colours. Can’t wait to see more updates.

cheers :thumbsup:


#26

Love the style and colours, one of the most unique pieces yet in the competition. And the story…well i’ll have some of what you are smoking mate :slight_smile:
Very nice , can’t wait to see the finished piece, I hope it retains the almost dreamy & soft quality, Good Luck!!


#27

Really neat rendering and coloring style, very atmospheric… i like it! Not sure exactly what’s going on, but it’s cool. One note, if you don’t mid: The single eye on the right-most creature may not be matching the erspective on the cylinder itself… It also feel like it’s mounted on a plane, not a cylinder… But anyhow, good luck with it! Look forward to seeing how you refine everything…

hey thanks folks. i was just talking about the eye thing walrus when you busted me on it. it should be all fixed up next post. and yes demonicoz it will retain the dreamy quality, more so near it’s final iteration. glad you’re keeping tabs on it Arc80, I need someone to make sure I don’t get lazy:)


#29

looks great especially the creature ,good continuation:)


#30

Got a little more progress in on the paintjob. Put in a rough of what the other half of Mr. Steak looks like thanks to the complaints of muttonhead. Lookin forward to getting some serious painting time in this weekend.


#31

Nice, that is looking great and i like the concept of the story. Very good choice of angle. It definately gives a kick to your piece (i didn’t notice it before until you put that huge master). Can’t wait for the more detail update of this dude. I really like where the focal point is, but i would desaturate the blue just a little bit. It’s taking too much attention. Maybe mix it with the green colour you have. Looking really good dude. :thumbsup:

Thanks for dropping by me thread laddy :argh:

cheers


#32

Very nice start I’m looking foward to see what you will do this weekend, wonderful work so far. :thumbsup:


#33

Got a little progress done this weekend. Ended up uninstalling a new video game because it was distracting me too much from my art…curse you tactical shooters!!


#34

Looking nice dude. The colour pallete is definately working with the style. What video game are you talking about?

cheers


#35
