Ørjan Svendsen's sketchbook - Orsvend - 01-25-2012

Hi there!

My name is Ørjan Svendsen and im a concept artist working for a small game company called Sarepta Studio in norway. I spend my days drawing textures and boring props at work, so i figured if im ever gonna get anywhere i need to do it on my free time! From this day on im gonna post a minimum of 5 studies/sketches a week, every week. If i cant even do this, then i might as well be a texture artist for the rest of my life!

Im starting today, and you can watch it all on my livestream! Hope ill see you there. Beware though, even though im a working artist i have a LONG way to go. So dont be disappointed!

Heres todays spoils! 2 hour speedpaint of Naomi Scott. This is the first time i have ever used the soft round. HARD! But i can absolutely see its advantages over the hard one. Suddenly everthing is like... soft.Ref can be found here.

Ouuuh my first fan! =P I will keep streaming for sure, but i had a lot of small shit to do yesterday, so there were many breaks in my painting session. Don't wanna stream with constant 10 minute breaks :-/

Will also take a break today since there's crunch time at work and my hand is getting really tired. Dont wanna get tendonitis again!



RE: Ørjan Svendsen's sketchbook LIVE NOW - Orsvend - 01-29-2012

I need to learn how to use soft and hard brushes to create depth, but im failing hard at it. Any tips? Suggestions to what i should paint that will help me?

For today, here is a crappy LOTR movie still.

Trolololoooo

Lovin the goblin study. Keep up the good work, Örjan :D

RE: Ørjan Svendsen's sketchbook - Orsvend - 01-30-2012

From imagination today. Had a hard time with this. Totally changed it the last hour or so and it finally came out okay. Learned quite a bit though! Trying to push the soft vs. hard thing.

Took about 7 hours INCLUDING doing the dishes, making dinner, eating dinner, watching some cooking show with my girlfriend and washing clothes. So i guess maybe 3-4 hours of painting time.

Didnt have too much time today, so i did some shitty anatomy sketches. I suck at this time frame! I think im best at 2-3 hour stuff. Any more and the progress starts going really slow and any less and i dont have time to get my shapes in order. MOAR PRACTISE!

RE: Ørjan Svendsen's sketchbook - Orsvend - 03-05-2012

Im sorry i havent been posting recently, but im currently in the hospital with a crushed ankle. Im an active snowboarder and miscalculated the speed i needed for a pretty big jump. I hate landing on the knuckle, so i always take a little more speed. This time, however, i took alot more speed, jumped over both knuckle and landing and landed flat. Even though i landed perfectly straight on my legs, my ankle just got crushed under the pressure.

So, if anyone was wondering, now you know! Ill be back to posting in a few weeks though!
