CC3 | Tien Chi WIP - tienchi - 05-18-2016

Okay I am off to a late start but I am ready to give this a try.  It took me like forever to finally get something posted in here.  I am excited to start this challenge and will look forward in hearing back and learning from this community. 

For this challenge I made a quick reference board with images I can get inspire to for this phase.  I did some notan sketches staying loose and thinking of interesting shape arrangement and story elements.  I have three in mind that I like but feel free to let me know which one you guys like.

Great job on joining and welcome! :) Man these notans are good, abstract and bold but still pretty readable. Don't have time right now to pick some favourites...but I will edit the post a bit later when I can. Great start!

@ Amit Dutta - Hey thanks I'm glad I joined, this looks fun and it gives me another good reason to draw :)

Its time for an update, I have some sketches I did in my sketchbook before I did the notan thumbnails.  Sry for not posting these first.  

The figure and portrait was actually a live model both 20 minute studies from life drawing class. Some sticky notes stuff to help inspire my thoughts.  Just exploring right now and trying to figure out things.

I did some studies last few days using Google street view as my reference to hopefully help influence the final image.

Some solid brushstrokes and values in those studies.


RE: CC3 | Tien Chi WIP - Slapper - 05-20-2016

Love those studies and damn didn't think about using google street view for ref before.


RE: CC3 | Tien Chi WIP - Piotr Jasielski - 05-20-2016

These comps are great and studies as well, really! I love how you made brushstrokes with different colors on the rocks. Keep this up and good luck!

@kopper @Slapper @Piotr Jasielski - Thanks guys!
 
This update, I work my three favorite comps and I am trying to refine some ideas to help me decide what I need to study.

 Whoa! Deadline is just around the corner...  Here are the last set of studies before moving to the final concept.  If my studies are not clear enough I am going with the second comp out of the three.
