Today's Practice

I spent too long trying to get the clouds to look ok.

Practice

I've started doing one-hour environment studies. I've just been doing these based off pictures I've found on the internet, and I'm not claiming the original images, nor do I remember where I got them (probably reddit). I haven't been doing them for very long, obviously, and I've missed a few days, and I've left one out that I'm planning to make into a more finished-looking piece.

The two without reference pictures are actually from a few months back.

So here's some of my practice, then.

The wedding photo took longer than an hour and I was practicing with square brushes.

Journey picture speaks for itself; that game is amazing.

First of the new set.

Based on this person's style: http://tohdaryl.deviantart.com/ 

I try to be accurate to a fault but I made the radiator brighter and I like it better.

I want to try redoing this in Yasuyuki Honne's style some time...

No fish because this one took longer than an hour and I was tired of it. There's way too much going on even in the foreground, I got lost.



EDIT: Did this one today.

Environment for Projects Class

Animation Background for Project's Class. Went through a lot of changes...

Character Design Villain

I had more fun with this one. It's much better, too. Red Oni to Makoto's Blue Oni.

 

 

"Makoto" Character Design

I don't like this one that much--I felt very bored during the process, and as a result, the character turned out pretty lackluster. Also I ended up drawing over the same dang images like four times, which got old really fast.

This one's just not that good comparatively. Oh well.

Project Vehicle

Vehicle design for projects class: C.S.S Scorpio, "Amphibious" Ironclad.

I don't know why they bothered making it amphibious since in the story it never goes on land--just sails out into the Chesapeake, catches fire, and sinks.
