Pareidolia -sketchbook-

**EchoArt7** · March 31st, 2011, 03:49 PM

Its been a long time since I last posted here on these forums. Been mostly occupied with school and such, but just recently I have the luxury of having a lot of free time in between transferring schools. So, I've decided to do at least a sketch a day and I'll be posting it here to keep me motivated. Enjoy!

Hi, welcome back! Brilliant to find the free time, as I have discovered myself not that long ago :-)
That drawing is amazing, can't believe it only took 4-5 hours. The detail (especially the addition of the bold
red strokes) and textures really give it life.

Would be great to see more stuff. Very exciting sketchbook this is going to be, I predict!

Warm wishes,

Ana

I'm glad you like it Jansi.

Some sketchbook work I did for fun (acrylic and pen). Another Photoshop piece coming in a bit.

**EchoArt7** · April 1st, 2011, 02:45 PM

Not quite finished. I might come back to it later.

**EchoArt7** · April 9th, 2011, 11:57 AM

quick environment after coming back from traveling.

**EchoArt7** · April 10th, 2011, 12:20 AM

another one

**EchoArt7** · April 16th, 2011, 04:33 AM

Here's a completed piece of an old man I just finished yesterday. Was thinking of Charon, the ferryman of the river styx.

Now back to doing sketches again. I've noticed that my compositions are really lacking. They seem too static. So back to work for me.

Been working on these last four days. Trying to brush up on my observational painting a bit more in an effort to try and improve my environments. Unfortunately, I had to use photo refs I took back in high school, so the color is not what I hoped it could be. The photos were of a small floating fishing village in China. C&C welcome as always, enjoy.

**PeteJ** · April 18th, 2011, 12:17 PM

I love your paintings, especially the one with the giant flying ship with random designs.

**artaphrax** · April 18th, 2011, 12:45 PM

Waaw man, great style. Keep it coming!

**EchoArt7** · August 25th, 2011, 07:26 AM

Been traveling / getting settled in before school starts. Finally have some time to draw now. Here's a more finished painting from a photo I took. ~5-6 hours

**EchoArt7** · August 29th, 2011, 06:00 PM

Getting as much personal stuff out before school starts and they start drilling ID stuff into me. Hopefully I wont suck at vehicles after the semester.

**Lux_Aeterna** · August 29th, 2011, 06:47 PM

**jbrown67** · August 29th, 2011, 08:22 PM

**EchoArt7** · November 26th, 2011, 05:01 PM

Finally got to do some personal work this term. Not quite sure what this thing is, but I'm leaning towards a battle bear. Happy holidays CA.

**Voodoo_Mama** · November 26th, 2011, 06:04 PM

*0* Great stuff.
Specially the last one, there's definetly improvement specifically on the values.
Keep posting!

**EchoArt7** · January 19th, 2012, 10:50 AM

Thanks Voodoo.

Here is some helmet sketches/painting I did for a 3D class. Will be making this out of clay in the future.

**blindshot** · January 19th, 2012, 11:13 AM

Excellent work! I really love your armor designs. What are you looking to improve upon?

**EchoArt7** · January 19th, 2012, 11:51 AM

A lot really.. color, composition, proportions to name a few. I still see a lot wrong with what I'm doing.

**GEB** · January 19th, 2012, 11:54 AM

You have some really nice work in here mate, your enviros look great!

**EchoArt7** · January 26th, 2012, 08:37 PM

Thanks GEB.
Here's a self portrait. More to come later.

**EchoArt7** · January 27th, 2012, 02:44 PM

Some 4-5 hour environments, probably gonna finish the second one.

Here's also some work i did my last term:

Pen on paper.

aaand we got to build it!

Its made out of pvc pipe, foam core, peach foam, and other odds and ends.

Some basic sketchup models rendered in Indigo:

**EchoArt7** · February 6th, 2012, 09:14 AM

"Big Fish" as an animation.

**EchoArt7** · February 6th, 2012, 03:15 PM

Finished up some film studies on "Waltz with Balshir".

**EchoArt7** · February 21st, 2012, 09:38 PM

a final rendering i did for a class.

**EchoArt7** · February 25th, 2012, 03:04 PM

Wanted to do a painting using some refs I took in a church and this is what I came up with.

**Greenhouse** · February 25th, 2012, 04:01 PM

Fantastic work! This last image is great. Beautiful light!
Another image that caught my eye is #12, the last one.
Keep posting!

**Shorinji_Knight** · February 25th, 2012, 04:14 PM

You've got some great stuff in here. I love the enviromentals!

**EchoArt7** · February 27th, 2012, 12:25 AM

Greenhouse: Thanks, I've been trying to do more personal work this term so a lot more to come.
Shorinji_Knight: Thank you.

I really need to work on my perspective, so I decided to do a city-scape with some vehicles. This is just a rough and the composition is a little wacky still. Its also too disconnected between the left building and the train.

**EchoArt7** · February 28th, 2012, 11:00 AM

Face / pose explorations for that Amos character I did before.
