Digital illustration..

here's a part 2 to my work being done in digital illustration class.

Series of pics

Another to add to the painting collection...still more to come.

Another posting.

I am now trying out the painting style for my characters I made (updated: I smoothed out a lot of areas around the faces and pushed the values a bit more. still trying to refine it)

Update: Hugh Jackman as Wolverine

My teacher insisted that I ink it and mess with the colors (it was too purple for him) so Here is an edited version of the guy. Enjoy!

My studies.

Like a student needing a master, my teacher suggested to study the painting style of Sam Nielson's Work.
So I opened up his blog and chose one of his simple pics and tried replicating it. Here is the work in progress( clicking on his name get you to the one I am working on.) This character is in no way mine. I am not sure if it's Sam's Character or Joe Olson's either way all credit goes to the actual creator.
