hey guys, great to see so many responses :)
@knives: thanks a lot, it was a lot of fun. Time flies in those figure drawing sessions :) the process is nothing special really, but still it works for me. I like to keep stuff organized I guess although I am a scatter-brain. At some point it can be limiting though, when I start to search for stuff in the layers and can't find the right layer. So there is a point where I just stack layer over layer and paint details in. I could upload the PSD if anybody is interested. (i.e. dropbox)
@Farvus: yeah man, monsters rule!
@smrrfette: Aaaaaaaaaaaah I saw it and I liked it :D
thanks a lot for your kind words, that's very flattering. At some point during painting the water color piece a little girl came by and touched it while saying: that is beautiful! That was the greatest moment :)
As for the process, I wanna see the result of you trying it out. Tell me if it helped in any way!
And yes, it was really cool to talk to that dude. Sometimes all it needs is to ask somebody for tips in order to get help. I think most people are more than happy to share. If not, that's okay too I guess ^^
Here more work:
the first are bacteria deisgns for the game I am working on. Go play it here and give me some feedback (it is hard as hell :D http://tajono.de/Protectus/html/protectus.html
The second is my first spacecraft design after the techniques I learned from Scott Robertson's book: How to draw. I wouldn't say it is great, but it is better than I expected. I was actually surprised by how easy it was. Check out this video and try it. Maybe you can already do it?
