Concept: Steampunk Tiny World

2009-01-23T22:47:00.000-08:00

I had a vision in my mind month ago and the thing behind that vision means a lot to me. I tried to paint it several times but couldn't do it well. These were side products from those tempting of trying to paint it.

In the beginning of this year, I thought "ok, since I already have these guys here, maybe I can just use one of them for steam punk challenge?"
I was kinda happy and didn't realize the due date is different between image and video group... Yes, I missed it. GOODBYE! STEAMPUNK! GOODBYE! MY VISION!!!

Daily Practice 001-100

2009-01-23T19:45:00.000-08:00

I have been doing some kind of practice for several months. Usually three or four quick sketches in hour and half. The main reference is BBC plant the earth. they have some really good reference for landscape and animals. Want to learn how to use color and how to painting something in photoshop without replying on layer effects and color dodge thing. Layer effect is very efficient and powerful but sometimes it will also makes painting very compueter look and very generic.

Random Sketches

2009-01-23T19:34:00.000-08:00

Some pages from sketchbook. Been thinking using different media not just ink and pencil. But for now, Ink and ball pen still very convenient for me to quickly draw something.
