I’ve been hanging out at conceptart lately and working on some character concepts. Here is the latest one.

Thought that I would do a female bust for some practice. Here is Study no. 01

I finally get to put portraits 09 and 10 up.

C&C is always welcome :slight_smile:

#85

I’m starting to really feel a rhythm.

#86

#87

Portrait 13 WIP

#88

I’m keeping myself really busy. Hopefully I don’t over do it again, and force myself to take a long break. I think I’m at my limit right now. Here is a look at some sketch studies of the Olympic boxing events. These are done for the Hardcore Modeling Challenge. I’ll be posting my updates here and my HMC WIP thread here

#89

Whoo, finally finished portrait 13

#90

I realized that these portraits are starting to take longer to complete. The first five or so I only spent about an hour on. Now I want to spend more and more time on them. I’ll find something new to work on here or something there. In order to move on with more and more portraits I have to pull myself away from them at some point, Lol. This one took a little over four hours.

I also did a timelapse of the drawing session. Here are the links.

Ahh… portraits, how I’m beginning to love thee. :slight_smile: I’m starting number 15 on my list. It’s really starting to feel therapeutic to do these. There is a routine that I’m starting to feel. I just realized that I haven’t been flipping the images like I’ve been wanting to. I need to add that into the line drawing phase. I know when I flip the image it saves me a lot of hassle in the end, I just get too anxious and move right on past it. Next time I guess o.O, Lol

It’s been a while since I’ve been on here. Anyway I want to post some of my work for my short animation entry.

#93

It has definitely been awhile since I was last able to practice or just play around with anything. Today I decided that I was going to do a little work in ZBrush just before bed. I worked on creating a person. I tried a couple of different approaches for each feature. So there was a lot of trial and error here. I think if I want to get back into the swing of creating my own characters and art work then I’ll have to continue to do a lot more of these little sessions. I had a lot of fun and I can’t wake to get back at it :slight_smile:

#94

I’ve decided to start doing quick sketches, just to get myself back in the groove. I might not have the desired time to fully render something, but doing this I think will encourage me to find the time.

Here is a sketch I did in a few minutes.

#95

Gestures… MmhhMMM just did that o.O

#96

well, not bad but i think that you should try to push value contrast a little bit more plus anatomy studies of course… :stuck_out_tongue:

#97

This sketch was a lot of fun. I’m moving on, even though part of me wants to add a crosshatch texture to the pants.

I did try to add some more contrast to the shading, but I think I will have to try and push it a little more and get some better results next time.

#98

Woot!!! I just got my first set of dip ink pens!!! I had to try something really quick.


#99

Started a new portrait today. It’s been fun working on this one. I still plan on putting a little more time into it. Hopefully later on today I can find some time to finish this one up.

As for now I have to head to work.

#100

Working on this one a little more.
