Wight and Elypticlid


Been style-searching this past week. It's kind of my usual crud, but it's fun trying new things, and I have an idea that I'm really trying to nail. Neither of these are very close, but they kind of represent the mood at least.

The Visitor

I did this pic for Taron's Lifeless Forest challenge on CGHub. I wanted to do a creature that wasn't evil, and wasn't good. It just "was". It needed to survive and so it absorbed the creatures of the forest and in doing so it took on some of the characteristics of the inhabitants in the woods. I wanted this creature to look very alien, and have various materials on it that "didn't quite" mesh, yet still worked. Metal? Feathers? Scales? Wet, dry? Anyway, enough bleh bleh bleh... I hope you guys dig it!

You can see some of my WIP on the competition thread here:

Been awhile so I thought I should post something. I had intended to give this a few more passes, but just in case I never get around to it here's a little something from me.
Amazing work here as always guys and gals.

"DOLL o1"


Another little sump'n sump'n... I've been kinda on a Photoshop bender, lately.

Wednesday, March 4, 2009

[ EDIT: I made this one a bit more monstrous, and thought it would be worth adding... ]


Photoshop 7

A bit goofy, regarding the anatomy (In particular, the unnaturally truncated torso), but I rather like this anyways, so...

Here.

Dominance Wars mini contest


closeup of his pretty lil'mouth


initial sketch: ballpoint pen on small notepad

So I tried to pull of the Dominance Wars "General" min challenge in one night-not a smart move-but time is valuable so it was all I had X)
I'm only including the close up detailed shot of the face since I feel the full image was 'epic fail' hahaha
if you feel you must see the whole thing stop by my blog at http://joevriens.blogspot.com/ or click the image. There's also some WIP's there and a longer description of the Dominance Wars.
oh...I was entering through the CGHub btw.

thanks!

Goaty


Great creatures posted since I was here last! Here's a quicky I did recently depicting the god Pan, lord of the wilderness (or my version anyhow)

wait, what?


errrrr...

Take a left up at the corner, go two blocks....


A fun sketch that I've just done this afternoon for my brothers birthday.
I'll probably print it and frame it as a gift.

Creature Designs -- Michael Jaecks






















Hey guys. My name is Michael Jaecks. I'm a freelance Concept Artist and Illustrator living in Minneapolis, MN and working for clients everywhere the interwebs can reach. Davi invited me to join the blog and I'm pleased to be here. Here's just a sample of some work. Images 2 and 3 above were for Wolfgang Baur's Kobold Quarterly. Really great work from everyone here and I'm looking forward to seeing and sharing more.

Big Guy WIP


Here's the underpainting for that sketch I posted earlier...
It's a little dark... I'll probably brighten it up as move forward.
Comments and critiques are welcome!

DW 3 stuff



So Dominance War 4 is starting soon. I have no idea if I'll have time to particpate again... I'm going to have some major crunch in March at work. But it was alot of fun (and alot of work) last year so hopefully I can do it again. I was happy with my design for DW3 but I had to turn in an unfinished entry. But I still made it to the top 50 so that was cool!
I recently painted more on the head concept... so here it is and I figured I should post some of the other stuff too!
If only I had one more weekend.... sigh.
Here's the original forum thread if anyone is interested in the progression!

Behemot

Hi guys,

My name 's Fred Rambaud , I have been working as an illustrator and concept artist for the past 4 years now. Mike was kind enough to invite me, thank you sir ;)

So here is my first post.

This is a concept for a personal project, a mount for an ogre-sized warrior.
This is the sketch or line



and this is the color version



I always like showing both versions because I feel that you lose something in style and also design when it is painted.

Hope you guys like it :)

Fred

Carisapiens

Here's an alien scholar, reading a book. A fairly quick and loose sketch, done in pencil then scanned into Photoshop. It was fun.
