Greek Warrior

Character concept i've been working on the last two days. Having been doing loads of anatomy and still life studies, I have a better understanding of structure and weight balance.

WIP fantasy scene

WIP of a new scene im working on. Going for a fantasy theme.

Country paint

Spent a day developing this from a thumbnail. I began with a series of quick thumbnails, and then developed the best composition. I worked in colour from the start, as im trying to practice my colour mixing in photoshop. It feels like i have more control over the mood and atmosphere, rather than if i was working mainly in greyscale (as ive been doing with a lot of my environment pieces). Cheers for looking.

Eerie Castle

Working on this envrionment piece. It started as a pencil sketch a few weeks back, and today i decided to colour it in Photoshop.

Tony Abbott - speed paint

Photoshop paint study of Liberal leader Tony Abbott. Ive been practicing my colour mixing in photoshop a lot lately, trying to come up with a technique which may be similar to traditional acrylics.

Character & Environment studies

Been working on some character design concepts for a story i'm writing. At the moment these are loose and exploring shape and small details.



Some environment concept studies.

Michael Jackson - JAM!

Painitng i did for my mates 21st bday. Its based on MJ's Dangerous Tour opening with Jam. Only Michael Jackson could get away with a costume like that.

Acrylics on masonite board (60cm/90cm)

Poor quality photo. Cheers for looking!

Sketchbook pages

Been very busy the last week doing lots of drawing studies to improve my overall fundamental skills. mixture of sketch studies from George Bridgman books as well as a few experimentations with acrylic and gouache. :) Cheers for looking!

Russian Gangster Dude: Finished

Heya folks,

Finished off this dude last night. I'm quite pleased with how he turned out, considering where i originally stated with the work. Cheers for looking :)

Russian gangster girl - Finished

Heres my final concept for the Russian gangster girl. Though there is still loads of room for improvement, i think it's a big step up from my other character development studies. Now to finish off the dude!

1930s restaurant

Final composition pencil sketch for my restaurant scene. it was done as 5 seperate drawings, cut and composited together in photoshop.

Pencil Sketch - Poster composition

A pencil tone study of a poster i'll be painting as part of a university assignment. im still tossing up whether to do it digital or acrylic. i havnt touched acrylic for many months and this would be a good excuse to get in some more practice, but digital is faster. hmmm...

My tablet is dying... :(

Ok. So, my tablet is dying. Its been through a lot. Have to call this quits for now. I think im pretty happy with the colour palette. Gonna use this as a basis for some future work i'll be developing for a story of mine ive come up with (in preparation for sending out portfolios :)) Cheers for looking.

Don't worry about your home...

It's in good hands.

Bill Murray - Groundhog Day

Just a picture of Bill Murray from Groundhog Day. i drew this (using reference of course) while listening to Harold Ramis' commentary on the DVD. Great Movie!

Heya people,


I've been working on a Unreal Tournament mod with a TafeSA group doing concept art for their game, I've been helping develop a theme, decide on texture and lighting to help create an overall mood for their game. Their game will be shown at this years Avcon (Anime Convention in Adelaide) and my work will be printed on posters surrounding their booth. Which is pretty cool. Cheers for stopping by.

Design sketches

Initial pencil



Digital colour



Quick watercolour sketch



Hey people, i'm currently helping out a group of 3D artists with their their video game mod. Their game is looking pretty rad, and they've asked if i can help them out by experiment with different ideas to help make a consistant theme for their game. Anyway, above are some design sketches from today.

Holiday work

On uni holidays so i'm going to be practicing loads!

Finished Space Opera scene

I decided to call this one quits. Im getting waaaaay too caught up in the fine details when really, i shouldnt. Im happy with the colour palette, and the perspective is pretty spot on. I think its a real step forward for me.

Finished Greyscale... on to colour!!!

Hey dudes, finshed off the greyscale study and am now onto colour. I figure the rest of the details can be applied to the colour paintover. I am having trouble painting people and objects into 3d space. So i need to practice that over the uni break with pencil and paper. Cheers for looking

WIP Space Opera scene

Stages



Current Stage




Hey people, this is a scene im working on for uni. Its supposed to be sci fi with a sort of space opera theme. Its not showing at the moment, but once i add vehicles and characters it should look much better. Check out the current shot plus the process shots!!!

Cheers for looking
