Learning Concept Art

Mad max + dragon slayer

New character I’ve been working on 

I’m a huge fan of Breath of Fire, and I re-imagined Ryu in a sci-fi, cyberpunk setting. I think this one turned out pretty decent. I sent it to Shaddy Safadi for a feedback. I hope he gets back to me. 

Photobashing has been a lot of fun and it does make my paintings better; because it is better. You worry less about material rendering and more about the overall design of the concept, I can see why a lot of professionals in the concept art field does it; it saves time and makes the process faster. 

Genos! I saw a lot of fan art for Saitama, and figure a Genos fan art seems more appropriate. And had to think about what Genos would wear in a film setting, the attire he wore in the anime seems to plain so I added some design and photobashed a bunch of clothing together to give him more flare and a better read. 

7 years after the battle with Esdeath, Akame is all grown up and dishing out justice in the cruel and corrupted capital city.  

I felt like doing a fan art piece, and maybe redesign Majin Buu a little bit to make him look more cinematic. I didn’t want to go too crazy; because well He’s already crazy to begin with XD. Hope you guys like it! If you do share it! TY!

Human flesh is a lot more complicated than I initially thought and expected. I read James Gurney’s blog on face color zones; it was a mind opener! I suggest everyone that sees the picture check it out :)

almost done....

I’ve been pretty bad about posting my work lately! But I’m working on a Breath of Fire redesign! Hope you guys like it :D
