Bloodsports 15 Golem design

Bloodsports 15 Golem


Took a lot of liberties with the interpretation of this theme.  Some of the development is here. The golem or creature in this case was more in the mold of an old retrainer, technically savvy and wise.    Oh yes, and ready for a nice cup of tea.

I was travelling for a few days which meant I did not get to do these last week.  I missed doing them so I hope to keep going with them for now.

Church Speedpaint

Church Speedpaint
A church speedpaint of 2 hours for the deviant art speedpaint group.  The reference was from here.  Tried to start with linework.  Not very successful.  Colours got muddy and did not control edges.

A lot of the first week was spent on this guy so he turned out as a more developed piece than the beast .

Bloodsports 14 Beast

This was the beast for Bloodsports 14.  This suffered most from lack of time.  I should have gone for the obvious minotaur with this.  I may well go back and have another go at this as it feels like an opportunity lost.

Bloodsports 14 Beastmasters studies

Bloodsports 14 studies
Got totally whipped by bloodsports 13 and as I am a glutton for punishment I went ahead and put some work together for number 14 Beastmasters. I knew I would be travelling the second week so I cut short the studies and committed to an idea probably prematurely in order to have enough time to get some sort of finished product. How did that work out ?  Well the submitted stuff to follow.

Bloodsports returned and I could not pass.  I really ran out of time on this. I only spent a week so it did not leave enough time to polish.  I skimped on the studies.  The one I did to completion I did not end up using.  That was the lizard which was supposed to be for scale mail.  I did spend time on the thumbnails and I think the composition worked but I needed more time to get the contrast. I will return to it.  I am doing the next bloodsports so I will hopefully get a more polished piece.
