more character design thumbs. I liked the ones to the left the most.

Woooo I finally got my new tablet! An Intuos4 Large :D
Did this portrait when I tried out the tablet for the first time, it took a little time to get used to the size of the tablet. But I must say it's not ten times more fun to paint in Corel! Painter really do use all of the features in the tablet!

Some environment thumbnails. Focused mainly on color palettes here.

^I like the fourth environ study the most. got a rainy, almost depressing feeling to it.

Has been quite inspired by the game "Journey" today. Here's some speedies!

[atrenr]

woah! look at all the cool stuff in heeeeere~

[FOERVRAENGD]

And here's some more speedies :)
I think I've found my own personal grasp on environmental speedies a bit better now. I think the "less is more" thinking fits me quite well.

Creature/Character design. Pretty simple, just wanted to experiment in mixing a centaur with dragon/dinosaur-ish anatomy.

I like the look of that black graphic brush style you've been using. Very pretty for drawings.

here are some process shots on a current work:

Not so much left, this will soon be finished. Just need to work more on the main character and also place the head a bit further back, since the perspective right now looks a bit off between them.

WIPs of another painting I'm currently working on.

[FOERVRAENGD]

30 min speedpainting before heading to work. Wanted to try out some new color techniques.

[FOERVRAENGD]

Playing around with a limited color palette. The composition could use some work tho (I sense a tangent somewhere at the right area)

Awesome sketchbook! In the last one I think you could have used the blue for some glowy things! Like mushrooms or something.

You have a good eye, try spending more time on the studies, I am getting a feeling that you are impatient (don't hate me if i'm wrong hehe).
I like where the red riding hood is going colorwise, you can totally flash out the reds on her cloak.

You are actually right there, haha. I'm pretty impatient, I have yet to finish an environment painting that isn't just a thumbnail. But you're right, I should do more studies.

[FOERVRAENGD]

Followed your advice and did a little study based on a photograph, I really need to practise more on rocks and mountains and such.

[FOERVRAENGD]

yet another WIP. trying out a new technique that I've grown a bit fond of using.

[FOERVRAENGD]

Coloring practise sort of?
I've found this painting technique that I really like, so I decided to try it out roughly on some characters I have created through my teenage years (minus the girl at the top left)
