I was trying something different with this so it's not my usual. It was more of a quick sketch while trying a different approach.

Spidermech

This was a quick sketch I did watching one of  Feng Zhu's tutorials. if you haven't seen his tutorials they're really good, he breaks everything down really well, and they're free. Check them out if you haven't already. http://www.youtube.com/user/FZDSCHOOL

Invincible steps

So I thought I would post a step by step of the Invincible painting I did the other day. For anyone who's interested. I'm a big process junkie and love it when artists share their steps.

This isn't my usual process but I've been playing around with what works best for me lately. I've tried a whole bunch of different processes, from starting in grey scale then colourizing to starting straight in colour, blocking in the shapes and then refining. I still haven't settled on anything that I'm 100% on yet so I'll keep experimenting I think.

This piece, I was just messing around trying to practice some environments. I did this after watching one of Feng Zhu's tutorials.

Aliens Study

Man I love this movie, its definitely one of my favourites. This was a colour/ lighting study, I'm trying to improve all aspects of my work. It was fun though, I love movie stills their such great source of reference for lighting, colour, composition, everything really.

Done over three nights, I probably spent around 4 hours on this, probably more than I should for a study. Oh well It was good fun.

Invincible

Hi everyone here's some Invincible Fan art. I'm a big fan of Ryan Ottley, if you haven't seen his work or Invincible it's an awesome comic you should definitely check it out. http://wya.deviantart.com/

So here's my interpretation I wanted to try and do a more realistic version of him. I had a lot of fun on this.

New blog

Hi everyone. I've revamped my old blog and updated the address. So here is a big art dump of personal work from my portfolio.

I did these last two at the White cloud worlds workshop, run by Paul Tobin and Warren Mahy from Weta workshop. It was a great workshop really cool to meet Paul and Warren.
