Been bogged down by overwork lately (work that holds nary any appeal for me).

Shitty sketch is shitty. Shoes were shooped on.












Inspiration from street styles as usual

This took too many intense sessions in photoshop to get right. Nevertheless, I still quite like this piece for what i managed to get out of the initial (shitty) sketch.

Bijin

Somewhat inspired by a particular bijinga i saw in this ukiyo-e book i borrowed recently. Fantastic stuff.

I feel the need to try something new soon. When i have time that is.

Animashunz

Not particularly enjoyable but it's what im going to have to do for the next few years so i might as well try for it :(

Pendulum Cycle


Seaweed Cycle

WallFlowa

A quick piece done mainly to test out the colors on my new monitor and to try out some new techniques.

First duplicated the painting twice. Upped contrast and brightness for the base paint and extracted the lines from the other. Layer setting for linework is then changed to multiply before flattening. Adjustment layers used to reintroduce colors.












Flowers drawn with pencil on paper. Quite lacking the patience to draw it decently as usual.







The paint. Like the effect that i got here, though something tells me that if had bothered to draw the flowers properly, the piece would have turned out much better :(

Pin-up Pepper

Fanart of the lovely pepper. A tribute to Stanley Lau (Artgerm).

No sketch this time :D (Because it isnt even quarter decent)

















Helmet details were a joy to paint. I like the face, so here's another closeup.










The plane's based on a P-51 Mustang. Figured only a plane with lines as graceful as a mustang would be a fitting mount for pepper.

GRAFFETI-ISSH

Hah another strange idea that's been running through my brain after i saw some of INSA's work. The whole graffiti + erotic art thing seems to work quite well (i think)

The sketch. Quite pointless to draw it half decent since i always end up changing alot of things and painting over the lines.














The paint and closeups.












Inky Octopus Carpaint!

Sniper Wolf

Ms Snipah Wolf from MGS. Quite a bitch to do the drapery, especially without reference. Tried out some new techniques with this piece.

The Sketch.














The paint and closeups.















Fucken clothing folds harder to do than hair.

P L A

PLA reads as pant-less army. Based on a random sketch a few days back. Haven't been doing much lately. Will start on more stuff soon ):

The original sketch.

The paint and closeups.

Warning: Hot Surface!

Blah old stuff, but im adding some closeups so this post is justified.

The paint and closeups.

Need to sketch moar...

Been a few days since i started with a new sketchbook. Went through with 5 similar ones already, although i've never quite gotten around to filling up every single page.

Quality will probably drop since the only reason why im drawing like this is because i have goddam so much free time on hand now.














In abit of an art nouveau phase at the moment. Learning to draw flowers and flowing motifs always helps. They make good space fillers and whatnot.

For great justice!

Figure i'd post some school stuff that's been lying around in my hard disk.

Sketches for my concept development pitch.


And the final mounted image, based off a Batgirl cover by James Jean. A nod to Ashley Wood's work.


This and the sketches all done in 1 night.

Mmm will post more art... for great justice!
