Mechanical Studies 1

Train Study
Armoured Car Study


My linework is really poor in Photoshop.  To try and get some practice I started to do some studies of mechanical type things.  Started with linework then rendered.  These can only improve with practice right?

White Witch

White Witch

The CHOW on Conceptart.org was the  White Witch.  As I am in between jobs I for once had some time to give it a go and post WIPs.  Unfortunately the website has been down for the last while but  I kept working on the character. Turned out to be quite a lot of work.  At the end of it my fav bit are the mice.

Bird Watch

Bird Watch

 This started out as doodle and kept on working on it.  Probably influenced by the nestcams that are active right now.  There are some great ones out there examples from Warsaw and Ireland.

Minotour

Minotaur

A while ago I did an image for bloodsports.  I had very little time and rushed it.  I wanted to go and visit that again but just as a straight forward concept.   It is a very literal take on the Minotaur and an exercise in rendering.


By the way this is my 300th blogpost since I started in December 2010.  
Thanks for dropping in and keeping me company!

A Touch of Evil - Bloodsports 16 Final

A Touch of Evil - Bloodsports 16 Final
 This is the final image for Bloodsports 16- The Big Rig.  The Judas Priest track was 'A Touch of Evil'.  Did not really stick with the brief as it was to convey a mood-Not really a big part of this image.  I was not super happy with the alien design.  You can see the fiddle farting that went on with that bad boy in the gif.  I thought about going back and redesigning something a bit more reminiscent of Alien.  In the end I didn't and it ended up looking more like a homage to 1950s movie creature design. Kind of went with the image. Not quite what was required but I had some fun.
