Bjulvar's Sketchbook

[Bjulvar]

Yo guys, mix of stuff this time. Trying to figure out how to start freelancing, reading up on resource, but there's still a fear factor in it all that I can't get over.
Atleast I got my first small commission to paint an album cover. Really happy with that. I'll post some WiP's when I've decided on a thumbnail, since I got pretty free hands.

Going to start with another portfolio-piece that's more aimed toward MGT and similar games.

Here's some thumbnail sketches for a Khans of Tarkir inspired piece. Tried coming up with a little story to help with the character and intention of the picture. I think it helps at this stage, because it can be hard to start from nothing.



Movie study



Virtual plein air number 2, always notice that vegetation is the hardest thing for me to paint when it comes to environments! Next to rocks and everything else of course. Trying to sharpen things up because it tends to get muddy.



Portrait plane study



Skintone/modell study, applied it in various ways, but they all ended up really bad



Quick things for the imagination. I've ended up stuying most of the days now, so gotta wind down with creative outbursts on the canvas!
