Digital Experimentation

Bon soir! And like I promised... here is the image dump from the last couple months! I've been experimenting a lot, trying to find something I am comfortable working with.

I did this study of my neighborhood in LA as a way to build up my digital painting knowledge.

Donut fall in love with her.
She will devour your soul!

A little fun self portrait I did, haha.

This next batch is a fun bunch I did testing out a new Photoshop brush.

Trying a New Digital Painting Process Out!

So... I always see other illustrators and animators doing this paper-cut/digital hybrid for concept art, and I wanted to test out the waters since it seems to be a popular style.
I think it turned out well!

Here's a look into my process!

Started traditionally and brought that into a 9x9 inch canvas in Photoshop.

Blocked in color!

Added texture and shading!

I might try to do more art similar to this style... we'll see!

A Typical Day (With Progress Shots)

I have a few saved versions on my desktop already, so I'll show some just to give you a feel of my process.

A Successful Day

Just some more concept art for my "prehistoric" world.

A few females and a pup rest by the lakeside as the males cook the result of a hard days work.

Digitally Painted Caricatures

As it says, these are all caricatures I painted in Photoshop with my wacom Inteus4.

The first is my friend Dustin.
The second is my friend Shane as Jimi Hendrix.
The second is a self-portrait.
And the final is my girlfriend, Paige, as Goku.
