Skeleton Knight WIP

Progress is slow on this one, but I thought it went quite nicely with the little axe guy I'm doing - and I needed a little break from him. So - here's an early WIP.

The leftmost one has no arm, so you can see the abdomen more clearly - I will remove the helmet on this one also to show the head. A face study and more detail on weapon/helmet/arm parts will be arranged around it. I currently have no idea whether to include the horns or not.. (one horn?) they bolt on to the holes either side of the skull/helmet. Actual head is very much lower down and would be looking out through the open jaw or alternatively maybe electronically via the eyes in the skull (silly I know).

I'll probably whack some more texture in there too - but if anyone has any crits feel free to let me know about it.

Monogram + Doodle

Finally figured out a monogram that seems to work. Also played with photoshop settings to get a sketching template - works pretty nicely! Hence all the doodles....

Mecha Progress 1

Here is today's progress on the mecha, very fudgy so far but it now has arms! I have to go over this once everything is done and fix the lighting. I've been avoiding thinking about the legs, but should get right onto that now.

Mecha WIP 1

I thought I'd hack out a new robot design, so here is the initial WIP. I still think this design is slightly funky (not the good kind), he'd kind of waddle in a comical way with his current back legs, so I'll most likely redo them. Plenty of room to play around still though - I'm making an exploded side view (this one) with the leg and arm parts to be layered on top and I'll probably do a few other detail shots in each other perspective.

Enjoy!

Happy Holiday Alien

Todays doodle so far - bit rushed as I need to prepare the flat for pre-christmas visitors. This kind of reminds me of the good Dr.Zoidberg. I'll have to finish this off some other time. Merry Jebus-day to all you humans out there.

Added some colours/tweaks - shall cleanup+finish soon

bird/bear/monkey?

No real thought behind this - but another concept for a possible enemy. Probably should work more on some variants. I guess this can be today's doodle!

Snowy Sunday

Snow has covered the streets - so I've been sitting in my longhi doodling all day. I found a pad (gift from a friend) of tibetan hand made paper - makes a nice texture! Going out to see Avatar today - hope it's as good as everyone is making it out to be.

Todays doodle

I think I'll try to promise myself to put something here every other day.... though, should I make that promise? I have no faith in me either... but let's see how it goes.

Today - a random robot! Who know's what tomorrow will bring:

Texturing the demon

(click image to enlarge to full res)

Lack of updates! I've been pretty busy with a new job and all sorts – Therefore haven't had much time to devote to sitting in front of my mac to paint. Myself and Ptoing (Sven Ruthner) are having some fun texturing this low poly model by Brian Jones. This is still very much WIP but will post a couple of different skins shortly.

Muffin Man - Final

Here he is. To be honest you won't see much difference at this size. Click the image though to view a larger version where you can see the details.

Photoshop Doodle

Another test. Damn blogs and their maximum of 400 pixels wide. That's horrible!

An image I made some time ago. Gotta love octopi.

Old Stuff

Some older sketches and bits and bobs... Keep things all in one place.

Did some painting so I thought i would chuck it up in here. Only sketching in pchat... Can't remember what it was referencing now.
