Brushes and texture play

Sketch whilst playing around with PS brushes and making textures.

Not finished, but done.

An Owl. It was dragging a bit and I could feel myself putting off other drawings for it while messing around with colours, so thought i'd just move on.

Owls

A bit of vector work for a card and an owl that grew out of the sketches for said card. A work in progress (WIP) at the moment, a little more refining then starting on the colour.

Harmless

Quick play around this afternoon, slapped a bit of colour on one of the characters from the last post.
Photoshop CS5 and Intuos4.

Sketch Dump

Lots to get through today, gone back a while to cover all the old stuff, as well as some new bits and pieces. Some i'm not too thrilled about, some i'm more pleased with. Onward and upward.

A portrait of a lovely girl on the train. She was mostly made of lambrini, mascara and shrieking.

 Trying to draw a pose from imagination but ran out of patience when I got to the face.

 Trying to draw people purely from the edges of my vision, quite fun seeing how much you can gather.

Starting experimenting with ink and an atomizer/disperser (i think its called?) -- a thing for splatting ink.

Practicing lips, lovely things, but difficult to draw.

It started with the lipstick and grew out from there.

The next two are all from squiggled lines, and built into faces, hence the odd proportions. 

 A biro doodle that got a little out of hand. It started with trying to draw circles. All biro, all gradients achieved with super fine hatching. What fun! No sarcasm.

Some sketches for some character design.

Planar head

An exercise from a little while ago, trying to get back into digital painting. Click to embiggen images.
