Good work on the knight dude!

[JamesSimons]

Knight work on the good dude!

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

adamsimons: Thanks.

JamesSimons: Thank you.

Not that much to show this week. Did some perspective work, only one still life as I was busy with Nov 1st selfportrait day, finished my knight guy project and started two more projects, one of which you'll never see (maybe )

A self portrait for Nov 1st. For a quick (and a little funny) comparison, some self portraits I did a bit more then a year ago
From life/photoshop, about 4 hours.

The completion of my knight guy project.
Fake screenshot. (not that happy with it, couldn't get the depth I wanted) Possibly my first landscape, at least from imagination.

The comedy element to the game design, epic open world roaming and then pokemon style battle screen.

A collaboration with James

The still life.

And the sketches

[adamsimons]

either your face has improved or you painting.
good work!

[JamesSimons]

Good work!
Keep driving down the rainbow road of justice!

[TNiznet]

Bruce, I honestly love your sketchbook. Looking forward to more. Definitely a 5 star sketchbook in my opinion.

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

adamsimons: It's probably both, thanks.

JamesSimons: Always, thank you.

TNiznet: Thank you for the stars and I'm glad you enjoy my sketchbook!

Wow five stars, a great opportunity to work even harder to turn this into this !

Not a lot to show and that won't change for a little while still, as I'm still doing perspective work I'm not going to show and have a biggish project that's going to take some time, maybe!

A collaboration with Adam. He did the drawing and I finished it, in a way


Where I'm at with ideas for my second project.


A still life.


A quick still life of a glass.

Up and down week. Did a bit more drawing then has been normal, still working on projects and perspective.
Feeling like there is another level of working hard/smart that I need to get to and it's challenging me to go and get it!pld:

Project work that is going terribly at the moment, I'm sorry to your eyes.

Photo study.

Couple of still lives.

And some sketchbook pages, really have to get better at composing pictures.

To be the winner you have to win!

[adamsimons]

There is a lot emotion in that skull study!
Good work on that and the rest of your studies.

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

JamesSimons: Another twelve years and I'll be the greatest unstoppable winner of all the suns in all the galaxy's! And another thirty six after that and I will be a Prince of the universe no longer, for I will be the king of all known matter (and the bits in between)!

adamsimons: Danke schön!

Drifted away from my project, got caught up doing studies for it. Time to set the deadline and get back to actually working on them!

Studies for the Sailor moon fanart.

A still life, starting to include different materials.

A master study working to a method, didn't get to the glazes.

A photo study, my apologies to Grand Moff Tarkin.

Thirty six years?. I wonder if will be doing plein air in space?...Painting one thousand suns...

[adamsimons]

Thirty six years? It will be time to look inwards, to the centre of the Earth.

[Greenhouse]

Hey Bruce! What a great sb you have! I love your pencil sketches and stills, and the digital studies are awesome!

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

JamesSimons: I hope to be the first, thank you.

adamsimons: We'll get to paint dinosaurs from life, that'd be cool.

Lakai: Danke schön!

Greenhouse: Thank you.

Work work work. Did a bit of this and that, nothing to specific this week but I've got tons to think about / work out in terms of my training and getting to my goals.
Onward and forwards and upwards and always!
