Punk Princess

an art of Blizzard's D.Va character. Imagined as a Christmas Nutcracker skin. Designed this for conceptart.org character of the week challenge. The theme was to redesign one of the characters from the Nutcracker. An example presented was a mechanical Nutcracker with gears and machine parts which triggered the idea of a mecha with Clara as the pilot. I've really enjoyed the work Overwatch has done, especially with their short films and so the mecha to come to mind was D.Va with her tank. I imagined D.Va's version of Clara as a very Russian themed ballerina and her tank as protective Russian Nutcracker soldier. In creating the sketch and paint. I followed one of Blizzard's official artworks pretty closely and ended up learning a lot while trying to replicate the lighting and shadows. Would love to hear any thoughts, especially on the colors and rendering. 

3D character based off a design by Alessandro Pizzi for ArtStation’s shogunate design competition. Hat's off to Alessandro, his entrees are consistently really solid. It was a great experience working with the design. #shogunate #3d #character #blender #alessandropizzi #samurai

A character I finally finished based on a sketch by Justin Rodrigues. https://www.instagram.com/p/3kBgHnuugv/ I started it as a practice sculpt and then decided it would be a good idea to work on textures, then hair and fur, then landscapes, then lighting... Finally weeks later and a great deal of render and re-render time, it's finally done. I guess. Would love to hear any feed back. Thanks again to Justin for letting me use the sketch.

Another attempt to learn about color and painting. This time with clip studio paint. Reference photo by #jimzuckermanphotography #color #africa #clipstudiopaint #digitalpainting #landscape

A character sculpt based on a sketch from the awesome Puba24. You can check out the blog here http://puba24.tumblr.com/. Has a great comic book style and captures a moods really well. The colors are mine since the original was black and white. Would love to hear feed back on that or any aspect of the sculpt.

Some medieval sketches from this evening. One of these days I’m going to get a pen and work on polish. But for now I’m enjoying the photoshop phone app. #medieval #knight #sword #archer #templar #armor #sketches #pencil #filters #photoshop

Attempts to paint some photographs by Jaewoon U. You can check out his photography here: https://500px.com/dyne999 His color is pretty amazing. My painting of the colorful lake did not turn out near as vibrant as the original.

Practice paint. Trying to get used to brushes and color.

Some sketches while at a party

Weekend sketches

Vampire speed paint I did to practice with digital painting. And also just to get the art bug out a little.

A quick digital painting, trying to get a better grasp of color and brushes. Shout out to Marco Bucci for some great tutorials. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsDxB-CSMQ0Vu_hTag7-2UQ

Finally got spring weather but can’t wait until summer

A friend is really good at supporting people and made me wonder what a manga would be like if the main character just tried to make others successful without ever getting noticed. The term life’s wingman kept going through my head. This is the character design I got.
