the VISION

For a sketchgroup, this is VISION from the avengers. I'm totally unfamiliar with this character so I probably messed him up bad, but I wanted to play around a bit before bed :)



And here are 2 session of 90 second poses:

tarzan

90 second Poses:



Was away again for 2 something days, and when I got home I worked on pencils for a comic page of Tarzan that my friend TK roughed out. He's going to ink and color it, so good luck to him :)
I feel like doing more stuff, but I can never stop and then I end up working untill 3 or 5am which completely messes up your rythm for the next day, so I might be sensable and make it an early night.

Batman Beyond

So here's another image for a comic challenge, this time topic was Batman Beyond. I've been pretty busy busy lately and haven't really been home that much, but I'm trying to make the best use with the time I do sit in front of my PC.



Started off with 3 thumbnail sketches, trying to find a composition that works:



This was the one I was going to work on:



Inked , really trying to keep it kind of toony, which really isn't as easy as it looks! Not for me anyway :)

Posemaniacs

warm up 90 second poses using phtoshop. I've been saying I want to improve my digital sketching, because all professionals seem to be able to work straight into digital these days, so it's a must have skill. And there's only so long I can hide behind my crappy wacom tablet :D



And then afterwards some stuff from the creative mind, again starting digitally with a sketch, then on a new layer I just put some more shape in the drawing, and experimented on the sketch a bit for funz.







And now I'm gonna do something serious...well I'll try anyway :D

Alfred's Art

Alfred is a friend of mine and an amazing artist! He's working on his comic shadows at the moment, but even though he's very busy he always has time to help out. Anyway, I promised him long time ago I'd give coloring one of his pages a go, so I did. I didn't want to spend too long on the page, because I think for comics you're expected to knock out quite a few per day. Not quite sure.

Anyway here are the pages, and if you want to see more of his work you can visit his blog!

Ink & pencils by Alfred



and here's a super quick morning sketch:

Challenge 1 part II

so this is as far as I can push the greyscale today, we'll see how well this fares against the other artist.



This is a color overlay (thanks Marc for the tips), but since this is kinda new to me I need to play around with this technique to make it work for me.
