Old Man: Long time no updates

Long time no posts - so above update done in PS - attempting at getting value and lighting planes into a digital painting - After Bumski feedback. Then once I am comfortable in what I am doing in B&W, then I will go back to full colour - Need to go back to Idiot Apathys exercises on Concept art.

More sketches

Where are the eyes on these...



Just more stuff from lunch breaks at work... just dont let them catch your eye.

David Kassan's Workshop

Final Oil - still needs some work on the eyes.

Pencil studies of the model.
Workshop sketches.


Had a great time down in Byron/Bangalore doing all of the above.

We spent 5 days ( just before Easter) on the workshop "Investigating the modern portrait." working from a model (David).
Much thanks to Tricia for Organising David to come over from New York to do the workshop. learnt loads and I am gonna definitely keep up with the traditional art... really enjoyed working in oils.

Posed Boar

Tweaked the Boars pose, still to clean up the skining on his low poly version.
But here is the latest WIP.

Arm

Some left over geometry from a game character that I did for work - liked the look of it, so I put it up.

Girl Bust

A new Bust
Same base mesh as the roman (FromMaya), end result is just a little too tentative I think and I am not really happy with the hair.

Should do some more characters with wild hair and as I need to break out of the mold more.
