Cutie

Cutie
I have been doing a few different projects - the big ones for my portfolio and some commission work so I chopping and changing between diverse projects. I have the preliminary work for an oil painting.  I worked in stages including a dead layer.   For a larger portfolio piece which is an interior scene I did some quick value studies.  


I started that work and have started streaming on Twitch.  I am currently streaming between 9 pm and 11 pm  GMT weekdays.  Come by and say hello.

 Cutie was a break from all the serious stuff.

Moving on

Moving on 
Been messing around with this image for quite a while.  I am going to accept where it is at and move on to something else.  The good is it was a challenge and I pushed it to learn as much as possible but I am into diminishing returns.  I have another larger piece that is in a similar phase so I am finishing it and moving on to another large image.  All are to update my portfolio.

War dog sketch
 Decided to start another portfolio piece.  This is the sketch which I put together quite quickly.  I have kept working on it and am in final phase with this but I have been busy an have not had a chance to complete. 
Still doing the 30 minute sketches though they too have not had they attention they should have of late.

Ship sketch

Ship Sketch 

Landing 
Did a ship sketch.  It fell out of some loose doodling.  It is in contrast to all the figure stuff I am doing at the moment so some contrast.  I decided to push it a little further.  Not much ink sketching this week which is ironic for inktober but it was nice to do some digital sketching for a change.  The second image is a work in progress.  Will finish it this week and get started on the next one.  The other mutifugure image I was working on got chewed up in a hard drive crash.  I will review and decide if I want to continue it.
