Avocado: Thanks. I see what you mean... But the tower is pretty cartoony at the same time so I don't know if realistic colors would work so well

Here's what we're doing in the concept art course this week...

A few balls and a bunch of mood boards for the game...

[Black Spot]

I like the coloured balls.

Don't worry about the brushes; I'm sure you'll work out what works best for you and I'm no expert.

[tobbA]

Black Spot: Thanks. Yeah. I guess I'll just have to keep experimenting and stuff

Here are a couple of gestures/studies from photos... As well as the beginning of a study of a painting by some guy called Juan Gimenez who makes pretty cool art.

And some kind of creature...

Now I have to write a presentation about how the brains language functions works... no time for painting :/

[ashess]

I'm curious about the moodboard. what is it for?

[tobbA]

We're going to make concept art for a "game" (well, a theoretical game, anyway) so the moodboards are for the enviroments, characters, props and artstyle of the game. It's supposed to take place in a dystopic future, and the main characters are a couple of guys who're robbing banks in order to save up enough money to flee the country and its corrupt government... But then I googled guns or something and saw the old western gun... and figured it would be cool if everything looked like it was designed in the 19th century with lots of cast iron and no plastics and stuff... Hopefully it won't look too weird

[Black Spot]

The steampunk type of world usually does look good, so go with it.

Like the girl with the sword; she's looking fresh colour wise.

[badass]

sweet update man! those balls are cool. and that girl with the sword is looking epic!

on that striped/horned creature, the back right leg looks out of perspective (it looks like its going too far back) and his spine looks too straight, it seems like it should curve with the body a little more. also, where the fur meets the horns on its head, i think you could define the shape more.

sweet stuff though- keep it up

[tobbA]

Thanks for the comments

Avocado: I see what you mean. I'll try to fiddle with it a bit

Here's a gun concept

[Jesus Food]

nice work, i like the lifedrawing sketches

[Black Spot]

The barrel is a lot more in focus. Sharpen up the rest.

[tobbA]

Ok. I worked some more on the handle and stuff around it.

[ashess]

really cool gun. do you know Trigun? its a bit in a style like that- well, a lot of anime is I guess. I just had to think of it bc the guns I guess ^^ ah, happy times.

[Black Spot]

That is tons better.

[tobbA]

Thanks

Ashess: No. I haven't seen trigun. Though I probably should

A still life and page one of a comic for P.O.W.

[Black Spot]

Nice still life. What's the trophy for?

Did you get the words in the wrong bubbles in the past picture?

[tobbA]

Thx. Well, it's just some thing everyone got when finishing 9th grade

Words in the wrong bubbles?

[tobbA]

Page 2 of the comic



(What happened to the SSG btw.. kinda died away ^^')

[SMILEFACE]

Haha awesome are ya gunnaq finish the girl in 243 an the gun is hot!! An the last still life rrrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooccccccccckkkkkkksssssssssssss !!!!!!!!!!

[tobbA]

Thanks for the reminder... That painting is on another computer that I don't always have access to. But here's a bit of an update. As well as a few character thumbnails.

Here's the original if anyone's interested http://medievalyfantasia.com/uploads...an-gimenez.jpg

Character WIP

(Her empty stare is a bit creepy... )

[tobbA]

It's done I think. Now I need to add a background...

[tobbA]

And with bg. We weren't required to render the bg very much so I think I'll leave it like this...

[wokjow]

Hey dude!It's a pleasure to see someone developing skill and style.
love the watercolour studies, its a favoured medium of mine. I reckon if you pursue the classical drawing mediums(graphite, charcoal,watercolour oils and so on) you will set your self up for any didgital media that you plan on overcoming.

keep going!

[Black Spot]

The shadow denoting her armpit is too far left. It looks really awkward in that area.

[tobbA]

Wokjow: Thanks for stopping by Right now I think I wanna focus on digital just to get the hang of it better. (Well, that and my course requires it...) But I'll definately be doing some more traditional stuff later

BlackSpot: Yes. Something definately looks off with the shoulder. I tried to fix it... hopefully it looks a little better.

[tobbA]

Just a pretty quick one for Bobby Chius stream.. Topic was funny, bizarre and thin. Kinda forgot about the last one ^^'

[Krato]

nice still life, the perspective is a little off though, the girl with the gun her face is to red in some spots

[AlexEh]

Nice to meet you tobbA Krato brings up a nice point, it looks as if she was just out for a nice long run and now shes poseing for us haha. Watch out for the proportions on the last one, the left arm is alot larger then the right arm (our right)

[tobbA]

Thanks for stopping by

Yeah, I had some trouble getting the perspective right in the still life... Very difficult with all those round shapes. But I think I did as well as I could at least.

I guess you're right about the proportions there... It was done in less than an hour so I didn't have much time to correct things.

Here's a landscape from a photo

I changed the girl a bit as well... Made her cheeks slightle less red. As well as some other minor things. And tried to crop her to see if it looked better. But I'm not too sure...

[Black Spot]

I think if you moved her head to the left a bit it would help loads. The lower legs aren't the same length. Its coming on bit by bit.
