Fionna WIP 1

The Tarpon painting was going well...until it came time for the scales.  It was going so horribly that I'm not sure that I want to continue it.  So, I'll put it on the shelf.  And start something new.   Of course, this means that I now have way too many WIP's that are unfinished.

So, without further ado....here is yet another WIP.  Fionna from Adventure time.  This work is done from a photo reference, but I'm planning on changing some things up, perhaps making the painting a little less realistic than the photo.

Skull WIP 1

I've read that if you want to understand how to draw people you should know how to draw the bones beneath the skin.  Since I'm mostly focusing on heads at this point, that would mean the skull.  So, I've decided to draw a skull from photo reference.  Here is my progress so far:


Of course, this means that I now have three WIP's going at this time; Tom Waits, Ben Brand, and the new Skull.  I'm not sure when I'll get to the Tom Waits one.  I've become so focused on drawing on the computer that drawing with actual physical media barely crosses my mind.  It shouldn't. But that is just where I am.  I'll finish the Ben Brand piece.  That's just a matter of there being a part that is confounding me at this moment (the barbell).  Who knows when they'll all get complete.  Life takes priority...as much as I wish that it didn't.

Ben Brand WIP

Here is my progress from my session tonight. It's almost starting to look decent. I still spend more of my time fighting with the software than drawing. This took about an hour.

This is also the first time that I tried drawing directly in Photoshop. What a pain in the butt. I'm sure I'll figure out why its the number one digital art software. But, I'm not yet convinced.

My Father's Day Gift

I was given a few precious moments to work on my drawing today.  Those moments are hard to come by when you have four kids, including a 5 week old infant.

For some reason the scan came out a little blurry.  Not sure why that is.  I'm not overly pleased with the teeth or the helmet, but the rest of the drawing is pretty good.  I'll take it, because I'm ready to move onto something different.
