So for my assignment I really like starting with the landscape and trying to craft it into some sort of mysterious city. I believe the object in the second picture might be hard but it was originaly leaves in a glass which I enlarged and used it as a texture to give the background that color. Some of the leaves are also scattered in the water and I just wanted to make that clear.
There is another artist that I follow who was designing characters for his office contest and he had a theme of combining Olympus Gods with a SciFi feel. Although I don't know his real name but his username is ShadowBlitz and he's done amazing character designs and concepts that really inspire me to try and add detail to any characters I make. Here are a couple of the characters he designed (Medusa, Hermes, and Athena. There was also Hades and Zeus but I don't like those concepts as much.). I also hoped that these characters would be put into some sort of 2D fighting game because a clash of the SciFi gods sounds so intense to me. XD Oh and I also REALLY REALLY love the design of his website and totally want to code something like that for my own. http://www.shadowblitz.com/
So this artist I've been following for awhile. His works are mostly done on his free time and what he does is use modeling characters of female characters from 2 different videogame companies and have them fight each other. It's entirely pointless to even make it I suppose but the video is amazingly done for him just doing it all on his own and not getting paid. He's got about 5 videos and it is still continuing and I hope that I can possibly make videogames with these type of battles. XD Here's my favorite video he's done, Part 2 of Dead Fantasy. Enjoy~!
So I guess this is my first sketch post. I'm not really used to doing a blog or anything. So this is something I've been working on in PaintToolSAI. It's one of my original characters named Natsume. For this piece I'm really aiming to give it a water/blueish type feel and still keep it magical. It's my first time in doing something as detailed as I can do it's not finished even as a sketch. I hope to work on it whenever I can.
I mostly like to draw on PaintToolSAI with my happy wacom tablet. My art style leans towards the anime/manga theme. I used to live in Cameroon and Senegal over in Africa as a kid. And I honestly have no idea from which side of the family my love and talent for art came from.
