lighting study #2

more practice...

big door WIP

Here's a sci-fi door I'm working on... it still needs definition and probably a color / texture pass.

Light study #1

I'm planning to do a number of lighting studies. They will be done from photographs at some point, but for the sake of simplicity the first will be done from computer renders. Here is my first one - which deals with bounce light from an outdoor source. I also added some objects in the scene to make it my own - check out the progression for yourself!

Industrial Design of the Week #68 W.I.P.

Today I've been working on a weekly challenge put on by www.conceptart.org. The brief is as follows:


Brief:
1. Design and draw a Timber Harvester!
2. It must be able to cut down the trees and process them up to a certain point, so that it can be transported.
2. That's it... now draw!

I've included some process shots -- the colored image is not finished -- there will be two wood harvesting devices on the ends of the arms, as well as other details and a bottom view. This is all I could get to today.

Snake tracker

This is still in process, but probably close to being finished.

Sometimes they just need one more day..

I was encouraged to polish the painting from Sunday to a better state of finish. Here are the results -- before / after

More paintings

I forgot to post these when I made them over spring break.

Dominance War Finished!

Here are my completed images for the competition. With over 1,000 other 2D entries, it'll be interesting to see how I rank up....
