Branwen's Sword

This is an update to the Branwen's Sword piece. I did it in oil, my second oil illustration ever. It's oil on board, 30x40. I'm pleased with the results.

PS - This is the reason I've had very little to post of late. Feels good to have it done with... for now. I'll wait till the whipcracker drops a crit on me (grin).

Self portrait sketch

I haven't done a self portrait since I was a freshman. Granted, I use myself quite often as reference, I haven't actually done a painting of myself. So this one is to go along with my students who are also doing fantasy self portraits. I'm still studying how armor is constructed and this makes the official second time I do a semi-finished drawing of armor. My idea for color is to treat it a la Rembrandt. The armor itself is going to be like dirty goldish color. I'll do a color comp on photoshop tomorrow. Btw, I hope all you illuxcon folk have a great time. I can't make it this year, but I'm definitely aiming for going next time around.

Up too late

Feverishly Working

I am feverishly trying to get this done for Illuxcon. I am currently working on the face and will move the the feathers after that. Any crits or comments are welcome. Oh, this is oil.

This creach could potentially be the mother of the little guy from yesterdays post. I drew him last year on the plane coming home from IMC '08.

i really need to get cracking on a new portfolio piece.

This sketch was the genesis of the idea for my Dragon Rider painting.

pistola

Decided to do a still life of a replica flintlock pistol I own. Painted in PS, little under 3 hrs.

black and whites for a while since my color studies were beginning to suck.
