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.

 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.

Still working on larger pieces so more sketching fodder.  The rat king was playing around with a traditional feel in photoshop.  

The ship sketches are traditional.

Did the obligatory self portrait for Nov 1.

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.

For those who are sticking through this diet of quick ink sketches - thanks.   I am working on other stuff but I cannot show it  and a lot of my bigger personal work pieces are taking a while to do.  I am trying to make a big push to the end of the year to get some regular work  so that has to be my priority.  In the mean time some inky breadcrumbs. .  . .

 Actually used a ruler with this one - paper was not flat when I took the pic.

And for some colourful relief - a photo I took this week.

 A quick study.  Something I have not had time to do in a while.  I was really busy combined with a hard drive failure meant there is not a lot I have to share this week.  
Below are a smattering of character sketches I did during the character design sprint I did in August.  All were from D&D prompts.

Moved over fully to the vehicle concepts.  I will do a few more of these then practice doing iterations of them.
