Studies on livestream Week #6
Here’s the compilations of all the studies from the last week. I couldn’t post them yesterday because as some of you already know, I was busy refining my last environment illustration for 20 hours (I’ll post it in the next few days) ending up at 7AM…..I’m glad last week I could, again, do 7 different studies for the 7 days.
Someone asked me to upload my studies with a bigger resolution, this doesn’t mean I’m going to do it every week because the files are heavy, but for this week, here you have it 🙂
Remember to check my livestream channel if you want to see the process of painting 🙂
Environment design course week #7
After submitting on last week’s Thursday my illustration taking one of the thumbnails from the previous weeks and getting the review by the instructor, I spent today 9 extra hours to refine it. As you can see the differences are not as noticeable as the “City attack” illustration but they are there.
Painting for Japan + This week’s studies
Today I was painting for 14 hours on livestream for Japan as I said yesterday. Well, actually I said 12 hours but I painted for 2 more because I had some issues with my internet connection.
I painted this illustration in the 14 hours, from the very first sketches, to the final result, looking for references and talking with my viewers.
At first I thought about an illustration showing the disaster occurred in Japan last year, but I looked at some pictures of those places now and they look calm, so I worked on a different idea. Here you can see a woman with her children, building their new house (the father died) and she’s begging the sea and the radioactivity (represented by those monsters) to stay calmed down.
Painting for Japan
It’s been a year since the disaster in Japan. Maybe some of you don’t know, but Japan helped me a lot in the past in some way, and I have some good japanese friends so I decided to be painting tomorrow on livestream for 12 hours to remember what happened there. I’d like to be able to do more for them, but right now, this is the only way I can send them my support.
I don’t know what I’ll be painting yet, studies related to Japan, continue with my unfinished Princess Mononoke illustration or maybe a totally new illustration.
I know tomorrow’s Sunday and most people will be out, but natural disasters don’t distinguish between working days or holidays.
3 new life drawings
Just posting some new life drawings. I drew the first one today with charcoal in 1h30min on a 50cmx70cm canvas. The other two, with pencil, in 2 hours on a A3 size paper. I still feel more comfortable with pencil, but I like the results I can achieve with charcoal 🙂
Environment design course Week #6: a new piece for my portfolio
Last week’s assignment for the environment design course was to choose one of the thumbnails from the previous week and take to final illustration. It took me far longer than expected but I’m glad with the result and all I learned. I don’t know how many hours I worked on it, but it’s been a whole week…..Too much in my opinion but basically for the amount of mistakes and lack of experience. Here you have the “step by step”, and the final illustration, which is now included in my portfolio 🙂
Studies on livestream Week #4
After today’s Livestream and dinner, I wanted to finish an illustration I’m working on before posting this and other stuff. But I only slept 1 hour in the last 42 hours so….I’m almost dead and I’ve been for two hours in front of the computer without painting that much…..so I’m going to finish it tomorrow…..I’m human after all
There are onlu 5 studies but I worked on the medieval bag in two different days and same thing for the princess.
And now, time to sleep
The Royal Fellas – Dwarf yourself
Today’s topic was taking ourselves as reference and draw a dwarf. Here’s mine, done in photoshop in 3 hours. The design is pretty common, and it doesn’t really look like me, but, anyway, good exercise so far. Hope you like it 🙂
Studies on livestream Week #3 + Life drawing
Here are the studies of this week. I continue doing the studies every day but there are only 5 because 2 of them (the city and the bike) took me two days. The bike was specially complex since I drew it with lines trying to practice the perspective and understan the shapes.
Remember you can watch all the studies on my livestream channel on demand.
