Update on the commission..
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 06-05-2014
Not worked on the commission much, I've been knitting a lion for a friend (as you do) just rejigged his face around a bit as I wasn't happy with the likeness and structure of the head..

A very rough concept inspired by Alexander McQueen...something to give me an incentive to do some dramatic lighting studies, mostly from memory.

Worked on the commission all day today :) feeling positive about where it's going, getting a bit more confident putting purples and greens in the skintones not sure it's right but it looks interesting and I'm having fun.
I'm nearly done on the guy, then I just have to clarify the orcs in the foreground and neaten and sort out the background :D

Having a change with this months ISCA facebook contest...Dean Konop, I'm finding it hard to get a good likeness, I'll try again..
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 06-11-2014
Fun with orcs..
blocking them in and having fun with shapes :)

Finished the commission of my friends boyfriend :D really enjoyed it, I think I only overpainted it slightly, which is an improvment lol
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 06-18-2014
Dean Konop final submission for the ISCA contest...
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 06-23-2014
Changed the head on the commission..it wasn't working, now I've got to refine the likeness and maybe change the angle of the hands and sword..

Just playing around with an idea for the Bali Challenge. Dante Gabriel Rossetti's 'Lady Lilith' as Marianne from Raiders of the Lost Ark...
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 06-25-2014
Finished the commission for my friend...I find it hard to stop and let go, but I had to redo his whole head and I think it looks better, I will look with fresh eyes tomorrow and do a test print.
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 06-26-2014
Made a few more adjustments and flipped him round, I think it looks better that way, had to call it finished to send it to print, I need to practice more so I make better decisions and use less brush strokes...that is the mission this year.

Tonights quick sketch of Adrian Edmonson and Rik Mayall in Bottom, mostly from memory (After I did a sketch I redrew it without ref but looked at the sketch from time to time)
..still can't believe Rik's gone :( RIP you utter b*st*rd <3

Blocking in the colours on two projects I started a while ago...
RE: Angies sketchbook of stuff and things - Angel_Intheuk - 07-11-2014
Some painting practice, started with a value sketch of Shirley Bassey and then coloured her in, tightened the important bits and tried to keep it loose. And a self portrait/caricature...
