character/ avatar painting

  • I don't seem to keep my journal very up-to-date with what I am producing. So it's high time to do a bit of an update... and here it is!

    some sketchbook environments in pen, a second GTA style illustration just to prove the first wasn't a…

  • This piece has been created to display (and practice) alternate styles / techniques.. In the style of Rockstars game - Grand Theft Auto. Created using Photoshop and Freehand.

  • whilst waiting for the next quick 2d activity I though I would 'doodle' a face in a few spare hours. Things got a little out of hand and a more or less finished painting have been the result.

    Created in Painter with a little Photohshop and…

  • Seems a while since I've posted any 2d work! This little painting is a revisited character concept that I originally did as a model sheet excercise (it's was posted here some time back).

    Created in Photoshop :)

  • A revisited personal project. The original project was a set of different air/space craft finished to a pen and marker stage.

    This piece was created entirely in photoshop.

  • finally managed to get some thing done to post to the mod concept art thread!

  • Refining the processes of creating a character concept and model sheet. all tone and colour added in Photoshop. Initial drawing were pencil on paper.

  • I have finally invested in a tablet :) and this as the first more-or-less finished painting. Created with 'Corel Painter Essentials' and some minor photoshop work too.

  • Finally recharged the markers and got around to doing some sketching again! These images are sketched by hand and coloured in P'shop.

  • Well... this is my final painting for the current 'quick activity'. Painted in Photoshop. see thread for more details on process etc.

well I've finally got a tablet and this is the first more-or-less finished painting I have done with it [:D]

initial sketch through to final painting was done in 'Painter Essentials 2' (came with the tablet) which proved to be very basic, a bit frustrating, but mostly okay. The rotate canvas feature was very useful.

I'm considering adding some finishing touches if I can work out what they should be... suggestions welcome.

nice one john, i like how youve made the eyelids and upper lip the same colour as the hair (ish). The parting of the hair looks like it could be a little more... closer together, or like thin strands coming out of the main bulk perhaps. These are the things i immediatly noticed, good work again.
