Speedpainting

Evan Monteiro and I did speedpaintings to the theme of "symbiotic warrior", then traded characters and illustrated each others' creations next, ended up being around 2 hours each:

mine, a sort of mantis-based street urchin

his concept, a soldier with a lizard-like familiar, revisited by me

also this 1-hour one based on the theme of "animal knight"

Process Blog: The Pond

original by Aaron Jay (randyotter3000)

8 x 5 in rough sketch in my moleskine

I wanted to take the idea of a giant serving as a pond and make it more functional and navigable.

Where would the water come from? Rain from the clouds, so it would need more funnels. What would these yellow fellows be doing there?

Probably using it as an amusement park, etc.

Scanned the previous image, printed it tabloid size (17 x 11in) Then put another sheet on top and drew the final. Then I reworked the whole bottom to change it up a bit. Then inked.

then colored in photoshop using randy's palette :)

total time: 10 hours

The Pond

I made these, check em out!

both did pretty well on mintees today :)

Also, part of my design Frenemies was featured as a billboard on the side of Threadless HQ, neat!

The Executioner

My submission to the Freshman Art Show. 

Obviously not 100% satisfied with it but I had a lot of fun making it. Still new to the digital game...

~10 hours?
