[QUOTE="Storn, post: 5726817, member: 6698"] Been awhile since I've posted anything. I just finished a massive cover with a ton of detail. Took weeks. Hopefully I can show it soon. And I'm in the midst of NDA projects, including card art for L5r. So what I can show has been slim. But I got these! First up, it was my mom's 65th birthday yesterday. I whipped up this quickie acrylic-watercolor of my folks' new puppy, Spenser. Just thought I would share something light and goofy. [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y35/Storn/anniebdaycardspenser100.jpg[/IMG] Next is the first of 7 character concepts to come. Each figure is going to be a representative of space navy. This particular one was based heavily on chinese uniforms, crossed with a bit of the scifi uniforms from shows like Babylon 5 and Firefly. The patron provided the reference for this one and told me to mash them together. It is also a bit different in the way I work. Usually, I start my sketch with loose blue line pencil and then go on top with pencil to tighten up the forms. Once scanned in, I eliminate the blue line in photoshop and then start laying in the value and color digitally. But I recently saw a demo of some character concept art over at Gnomon Workshop and specifically Sang Jun Lee... link here: [url=http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/store/product/941/]Creature and Character Design[/url] And I was interested in how he used what looked like black coloured pencil over vellum. Well, I couldn't find vellum at the art store locally, but still wanted to play with the technique. I substituted tracing paper instead. I think there is a "warmth" to the line and shading with the coloured pencil. Maybe a density. It isn't vastly different than the normal pencils I scan in (usually on just regular ol' copy paper), but something subtly different that I really like. What do y'all think?
