Last paintings of the 2013

Last paintings of 2013, and with that I wish you a happy new year!

Lizard faces

I don't think I slept last night and I feel quite tired, but here's my daily post.

Birdies

30-50 mins each. Thinking about changing them a bit later on.

Character design ep. 4: Space people from outer space

Some sci-fi stuff for instance

Skull studies

Boney

Assorted stuff

Quick studies & otherwise more or less random material

" Ohai. "

My first attempt in spitpainting. The theme was " dragon demon ".

Samurai in raster

Was supposed to be a brush try-out, ended up in being a nice print-like illustration as seen below.

Ssssssamurai! And apparently the composition changed a bit but ahwell

Armor, hands and feet

Studies 'n stuff

Cards for a design market

This one will be both a bigger print and also a small card, an astronaut who's picking some blueberries in the forest...

... and the two other designs that I made.

Character design ep. #3: Some nasty critters + extra silhouettes

This was a study about more organic and natural shapes, insects and nasty things in general. Working with silhouettes and trying to create strong characters.

And some process shots above. Plus the extras below. Cheers!

Laughing lizard

Environment study, episode #4

Character design # 2: A lineup of day's worth

So I decided to work on digital painting as a break from schoolwork, and today has been very enjoyable! Feels good to be productive. And the knightly guy below is an experiment on colors, I wanned to really give him massive saturation and vibrance. This was done a little earlier than the picture above.

ZBrush tryout

These are my first proper ZBrush sculpts ever, and I thought that this nymph/forest spirit was just good enough to put online. It was really interesting and entertaining to do some 3D stuff for instance, so hopefully I will find time to do more stuff like this!

Portrait study #5: The Hobbit

He was the most beautiful orc in all of the Middle-Earth...

... and this is Fili, the young dwarf!

Knightly doodle

Nightly knightly doodly doodle!
