Corehound Chest Concept

After debating what sort of prop set I wanted to start modeling next, I decided it would be fun to just go for a Corehound themed set. Here is the first concept I painted up yesterday, It started as a quick little concept in my sketchbook and then I scanned it and proceeded to bring it in to Photoshop. 

I think today I'm going to be focusing on rendering out all the concepts before I go on to recreating them in 3D.

So my question of the day is, If you could make a WoW themed prop set, what character would it be based on?

Cheers!

August Overview

I've nearly filled up my sketchbook this month,  here are all the sketches I did this month that I feel are worth sharing.  :) I'm proud of myself for sticking to trying to draw at least once a day even if I'm feeling out of it. Its been especially good for my self confidence and my control, two things that could never hurt to be improved. 

What was your favorite thing that you did this month?

Cheers!

Rainy Days are the best days

It reached 99 Degrees today here in California, tried to get lost in my art to cool off. Didnt work, but oh well.

I had trouble trying to figure out what colors I was using for this one I must have desaturated and painted over her face a trillion times. haha

Anyways. Enjoy.

Im sort of curious, but what is your guys favorite season? Comment below!

Cheers!

30 Min Speed Paint

I want to get comfortable with painting landscapes quickly, so I will more then likely do a lot of more of these if time permit, luckily  they are "speed" paints for a reason : p 

I want to start asking questions at the end of blog posts, to try to be more engaging. My question is, if you could live anywhere in nature where would it be? 

Cheers!

Draenei Barrel (Updated)

    

Hi Everyone just a quick update on the barrel I have been working on . 

I did some major adjustments on it today based on the critiques I received from friends and online : )

The main things I heard from my peers was that it needed

-More Color

-More ambient occlusion

-More Depth

-Contrast Gradients

and

-Material definition 

With those critiques in mind here is the most current version of the texture

Cheers!

Dranei Barrel

Hi Guys, After being incredibly hyped for Warlords of Draenor I decided to do a Dranei inspired prop.

This is what came from it, for the most part im pretty happy with it, but im still doing some last minute polishing.
