Tank engine study

Tank engine study

Still working on mechanics.  This was a study I did mostly as an exercise in patience.  It was just about observation and modelling.  I could have continued to refine but i think I got what I needed from it.  This is a photo of a tank engine.  Massive.

Tank Study

This is the second in a series of get better at vehicles/mechanics.  This study took about 6 hours also.  I think things went a bit faster doing this.  

Helicopter Study

Helicopter Study

I decided to do a series of vehicle / machine studies to work on my edges and get some workflow going.  I have actually avoided doing these kinds of things but I want to start working on these kinds of things.  Because of the nature of these studies I am going to spend longer than the unusual 2- 2.5 hours I would spend on these things.  This one took about 6 hours I think. 

Bloodsports 12 Final

Bloodsports 12 Final

Here is the final label designs for the Bloodsports 12 challenge.  

Below are the 4 variants plus the labels printed on bottles.

What I learned - I should have printed these at actual size earlier to check readability.  The mountain images should have been larger, reduced the size of surrounding graphics and I probably put some white on the title text to make it pop more. 

Carrauntoohil

Carrauntoohil

Carrauntoohil  the highest mountail on the island of Ireland (3406 ft).  Number 4 in the series.  Now that these were complete I went ahead and completed work on the rest of the label.

Lugnaquilla

Here is the third in the series.

Mweelrea

Mweelrea

Mweelrea (in Connemara) was the second mountain.  Both the previous one and Donaard I had made using a value study then adding colour.  Two more to go!
