Foolish Mortals Mwahahaha

Didn't post steps in some time so I've remembered to take screen shots this time..

None Shall Pass

Had a bit of fun with this one... Tried to make myself few brushes along the way. Anyhow here is knight in a pickle...

Illustration Friday: Adapt

Arbalest

So I've put some detail cutouts for this image. Its actual pixels (3000x3000), and its not very clean and smooth....

Sin

Started as a speed paint, but I've continued to work on it a bit longer. Not too much just to make it more readable.. Also tried few different ways to scribble patterns and such. Anyway, hope you like it :)

Sagittarius

I forgot to save steps on this one so ill just post finished piece...

Hell Knight

Well this one took bit longer than i expected... Overlay layer for color and normal layer for additional color. Here are few screen shots for Hell Knight process.

Sword Dancer

Well i kinda liked sketch for a change. Seems better than finished picture... But its 5 minutes so i had to add something i guess. Well here are few screen shots of Sword Dancer process.

Road to Asgard

Just a little practice to do a bit of scenery...

Deadman's Pass

Used this picture to make myself some brushes and kinda test them. And bit of scenery, i rarely draw it. Well here are few work screen shots and thank You for reading.

Light of Minas Anor

Tried getting more painterly feeling on this picture. And i think i never did lighting on face from bottom, so it was good practice. Started with my usual horrid 2 minute sketch, and used color and overlay layers to add color. After that i just try to find shapes to make it look better. Anyway thank You for reading and here are few screen shots Light of Minas Anor process.


Returned to gray scale and flipped...

Illustration Friday: Hierarchy

Screen shots of process at : Warlord

Warlord

War is hell... so I made evil looking warlord who just burned down some village. Started with gray scale scribble on which I've set up lighting, all I knew I wanted it dark. First I've put bluish sky but I really didn't like it, so I changed it to blend with picture better. Just picked color from bottom with eyedropper tool and gone over with it. Added sword because whats a warlord without a weapon, made it glowing with flame kinda thing... Anyway thank You for reading and here are screen shots of Warlord process.

Charlize Theron

So I've tried painting Charlize Theron. You will find lips and skin tones I've used on first screen shot. Usually i have them in swatches window, but I've put them on canvas so maybe someone will find them helpful or something. They are around mid tone value range, for shadows i usually use multiply most of the time. Line art is in multiply mode and I just put colors beneath it on normal layer. After all colors are set I'll merge everything down and make normal layer on top to clean up and stuff. Well thank You for reading and here are screen shots of Charlize Theron process.
