Seven samurai, tonal portrait study

MC Ride portrait practice, on a death grips hype lately. Took about 2-3 hours, one layer for the painting except for some tattoos.

Little painting exercise. No ref for the face. Feels like ages since I last painted a portrait

First concept for unnamed project

Behind the scenes of the cabin scene.

Mock screenshot of a survival fantasy game. There’s goblins outside and you dont have to take this shit. Focus was on the lighting and atmosphere. 

Another low-fi experiment. This time it’s some kind of water base.

Experimenting with low-fi assets to create narrative and atmosphere

Studies on the left,  my own compositions on the right. Once more testing the look of the little collaboration project I’m working on at the moment. 

Mockup of an upcoming lil game collab. Testing colours and style

No tracing or colour picking.

Around an hour, liking the atmosphere

Today's study: John William Hilton - Desert afternoon. About 2 hours.

Some studies from yesterday - broad strokes, trying to get my light and colour on point
