What I've been up to lately - concept art home work

For home work I need to create a model sheet

here's a progress

I know the character supposed to stand with wide opened arms but this design isn't going to be for 3d modeling anyway

I left out a lot of details but I guess it's kind of okay because the whole point is to get to know the process and learn as much as I can.

It's my personal design

so what's his thing?

His the bad guy but not from his point of view

he's just doing his job

so what if he was kidnapped as a kid to a devil worshiping family?

brainwashed to believe his duty is to bring a child into this world and use it as a vessel

so he found a pathetic woman and married her

once she brought a child he simply disappeared

It was a little girl known as the little red riding hood (yeah yeah, they told us to write a version of our own to the story and for some reason I gave it a twisted touch)

The little girl poisoned her mother's mind who was a pathetic woman to begin with

until her soul couldn't handle life anymore

The little girl offered her a deal, once she murders a family member she will become whole again

she agreed and went off to her mother's house

she murdered her like an animal 

and then the hunter came in and killed the psycho

and took the little girl with him and smiled

"mission accomplished" he thought 

The father is also the hunter

~poor English~

I need to draw some more facial expressions and some gestures of the character

oh the weapon he uses

hip bones study

value is wrong in her face

Studies

I feel like I got worse

like I forgot how to study, how to draw

how to put all my knowledge down on a psd file or a simple piece of paper

It's hard

I had a great schedule and I had a great progress

and then it stopped

and it rolled back

It's just a feeling I had\still have

 and I know I need to overcome this and get back on track

study, work hard and achieve my goals

I never believed this much in this dream of mine

and everything is possible

I didn't finish my homework yet

but here is a start

I need to do a character design and make a model sheet

I need to get into details and draw some gestures and facial expressions

here is a quick study to understand better the hip bone

analyzing this way really helps instead of just copying

if anyone sees this, I hope it helps you to study

color study and spitpainting

color study, worked with big brushes

and a drawing done for a facebook group called Spitpaint

the point of the group is drawing something in 30 minutes that is related to a certain topic

I did "Floating Tree"

my first spitpainting, it kind of weird

next spitpainting will be better!!

10 min drawing study

randomly started this quick drawing

~olyadbg

sketches

here is a sketch I did in class (concept design course) instead of listening :\

and another sketch

wip - random sketch

I was going to upload a sketch but every time I felt like it's not good enough
I know I got better 
but I'm far from being really good
knowing that I didn't use any reference is motivating 
and the whole process was very messy and more of an experiment

it was fun and I'll try to get more into details

keep practicing anatomy!

keep practicing gestures, clothing materials, color and light theory

and with each day of practicing I'll get better

Color Study

Here is a color study from the book "Color and Light" by James Gurney

There's a piece there by Martin Keane

The face has more complex colors, the nose and cheeks area is more red.
The zone from the nose to the chin tends towards blue or green and the forehead is more yellow.

I used a big brush and I know it doesn't look very good
and comparing to the original it's almost horrible
but it's a start
...



next color study will be better 
maybe one day I'll recreate this study and we will all see the progress :P

Drawing practice

not much

but it's something

~olyadbg

Random Drawings - gestures, feet and a dog

random studies

need to practice much more than that!

~olyadbg

Face Expressions Practice - Drawing

I'm sick :(
got the whole day to practice


~olyadbg

Facial Expressions Study - Drwaings

another study

~olyadbg

la random drawing studies

I know the basics of drawing a head but I just felt like I need to refresh my memory and get back to studies

when I sketch faces/heads from my mind it looks kind of bad.... 

and here are some sketches without paying much attention to anatomy

lazy clothing studies - drawing

what a lazy day..
First lesson of concept art course starts in a few hours and I'm really excited.
Maybe that's the reason I have such lousy studies today....
I need to get over it and quick!
That's it!
shit gets real now
and I have to give it my best
study and practice as much as I can
I feel like it's the first time in my life I'm giving myself a chance
I've been drawing pretty much my whole life but I had some breaks in high school 
Since I was a little girl I thought artists can't make it in the real world so I got into computer science in high school and today as 21 years old I work in an IT department in a nice company.
I like my job and since I work only 3 days a week I have time for drawing.
I know I'm not good enough and as most artists I see a lot of flaws in my drawings
but with hard work and dedication everything is possible
it's time to start believing in myself

drawing studies and a cat!

I got bored so I started drawing Loki, the best cat in the world!

and here are some studies

I usually don't upload gestures 

Can't believe this Wednesday I'm about to start a concept art course!

I freak out and always feel like I'm not good enough and I feel bad when I'm not drawing

I feel like I'm getting better but it's far from being *really* good

I spend some of the time studying Burne Hogarth's books

I watch sycra's videos

and I have some Imaginefx magazines

I just need to believe in myself

Finished drawing with it's process ~feeling the 50's

Hi there !

when I was practicing quick gestures and I noticed a really great one so I continued and here is the result.

I could go on forever with the details but hey,

I think it turned out ok

next week I'm starting a concept art course

I hope one day I'll become the artist I wish to be

!

Feet drawing study

it's time to study anatomy more seriously

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who had practiced one kick 10,000 times.” 

― Bruce Lee

wish me good luck

soon to begin a concept art course

Feeling the 50's - drawn in photoshop

Hi there! 

After seeing a great photograph I really wanted to draw it so here you go :)

I guess you can call it a photo study 

I still need to work on the background, her hand and legs.

Trying out ProCreate - First Post
