blade mistress

Or something like that.. this is more fun than I had in a while tho, and that's why I'm sharing the WIP. It started with a weird sketch that was inspired by 2h of deviantart browsing (which means it's 99.7% manga/anime oriented). She had a way bigger head/hair before I went over on the second round of detailing/paint-covering of her head.

I just like the fact it's just a girl and all I get to play with is the sexy and the "scy-fi-ish" part of it. Oh yeah. Another thing I tried was to keep the colors planned out before I went too crazy. Gonna be trying to work with dark and muted blue-greens and bright strong red-oranges.

*edit* Just called it done and here's the product. Don't want to be spending too much time rendering something that's just a concept study. I did enjoy it a lot tho =D.

Cheers! Have sum beers!

Erm...

I had a teacher that said very loud and clear in class: "Don't make a blog if you don' t update it at least once a month. People will think you're dead. And that's a bad thing". I agree. Business can't go well if clients don't know you are alive to paint for them heh.

Along with other watercolor stuff that I'll post shortly. I've been working on this digital painting of a faerie. Random subject. Just wanted something that would make me sit and paint. I'm happy with how it looks right now, maybe I'll work on her hands a little. I'm open for suggestions.

Cheers!

Mastablasta!

So I've done this work for a client in the UK!!! Very nice easygoing fella. This is an album cover for two rappers of my client's music record or something like that. Their sound is pretty cool and the album will be available for free download soon from what I understood. Anyways, it was lots of fun and here is a look at how it came out.

Noel Xmas Card

I was blessed with being picked to work on this chrismas card. My client was very cool and specific so it went really smoothly throughout the whole process. This was my first official freelance in the U.S. after graduating, so I was kinda nervous about how it would come out, but I like it and so does my client, so yay for xmas!

The illustration has different color options for the kids clothes as well, and also a version without the heads, so that people can put their kids heads on top of the bodies =D. The headless version looks a little bit creepy so I'm not gonna post here =D.



Cheers everyone and a great summer.

Another WIP =D

Anne Hathaway is just really gorgeous so I went after a nice picture of her to study from. I definitely need much more greens in her flesh to keep going, I just realized that the photo has her lit from the surroundings yellow greens, which make it harmonize. I might try changing it to blues tho...

Here ya go.

Hawt Wheelz

Last week I was surprisingly contacted by a guy who's creating a new brand for car racing gear and apparel. He wanted me to illustrate a few characters wearing what would be the stuff. I think that at some point in his meetings with partners they decided to go with another artist (all I know is they had more than 3 to start with), but it's still a pretty cool setup to try and paint some pinup girls or just practice some "photoshopainting".

This is a WIP of something that I hope to finish soon. I'm liking her. I'm enjoying experimenting new techniques.

Eric Cartman or Stewie Griffin? I'm really not sure who's funnier.

Have a good break pplz!
