The forum I am fighting for :

Secondly, did a study for a vintage 1960s car model. Not sure of the name though. Used reference found in google.

I have a feeling my techniques used to paint mechanical stuff is pretty weak. It always gives away this soft feeling, prolly cause of the soft edges.

Study Update 005

Environment and mood study of Rivendale, from LotR : Fellowship scene.

Next up, vintage vehicles! :D

Uploaded!

Kind of edited the final image abit too, not much difference, just trying to make the characters pop by making the bg lighter.

So many 'godlike' artworks out there, this is a great motivating / inspiring activity for oneself.

Study Update 004

Took pretty long for this character, Galadriel. Also, from LotR. Need more practice!! I think next figure will probably be Taylor Swift, googled some picture of her. xD

Study Update 003

Abit slow today, did not get proper sleep cause I kind of forced my body to stay awake yesterday. Had a  terrible headache in the morning. o.o

Here's Gimli from LotR, the awesome dwarf. xD

Still waiting to publish my concept art for the DW V, seems that the system will start working by today, midnight[Day time in the US].

Study Update 002

My female anatomy / portrait is horrible! I need to buff up! I feel like maybe I've practiced drawing alot on the opposite sex last time during figures drawing classes that all my female drawings now has abit of guy features. This totally sucks! Whole of yesterday was spent just trying to get Liv Tyler's features right.

Also, I believe my environment skills are lacking too, so a study of Lothlorien from LotR : FotR with Galadriel inside.

Study

Recently just watched LotR : Fellowship of the Ring, pretty much boiled my blood to draw the characters and environments as study. So started today, and wow, I feel so rusty, haven't done figures in such a long time.

So well, I referenced Gandalf in LotR, and a random girl while I was googling. Here they are.

I am gonna be doing this more often, quite fun.

DW V Mini Finals

I think this will be the final, but DWV seems to be down atm. =/ Can't submit final image. Learnt alot during this process, I cheated / skipped alot of steps during the beginning, which led to the final image not being as awesome as I pictured.
