Painting for DesignFest 2009

W0W! I haven't blogged in a LONG time! Well anyways. I want to keep this short. My school is having it's 3rd annual art show called DesignFest and the theme is "Once Upon A Time." We have to take classic fairy tales and make them our own. The theme I got is Beauty and the Beast. Here is my work in progress...

Traditional Disney look


Finished Beast and Belle coloring. I'm trying to go for a scary look/gothic look instead of that traditional Disney look.

My recent progress. What you think so far?

Update: Swamp House Painting

Done in Photoshop. I tried doing water reflection by following a tutorial, but it came out really weird...

Swamp House Props

Done in Photoshop.

Painting Update:Roxsan

I totally changed the background to a football field in order to fit her atmosphere and personality. I made her outfit a more brighter purple because the one before looked like a dark blue violet. I also did some more work on her hair. Oh and I named her Roxsan because that's her name.

painting update

I added some highlights to the hair and finished up the other leg. I still feel I could do some more work on the hands.

What I've been painting lately

This is what I've been painting for the past few weeks. I figured I'd paint a female character because I noticed that all the things I've painted are males. All I have left to do is paint the fingers and put touch ups on the flags and hair.

Swamp House Painting

I'm painting a swamp house in Photoshop as a part of my KGA. I still need to finish the background and add water reflection.

Breaker edited

I FINALLY put a FACE!!!

Lamborghini edited

I edited the background ,windows, and the windshield. I also made the lines of the tires and the body of the car more crisp.

FINAL KGA#2-Lamborghini

Final painting of Lamborghini....for now...

KGA #2-Lamborghini

For my second project for my portfolio class, I decided to paint a Lamborghini. This project is also due this Friday and this is what I have done so far. I painted everything. Yes, I painted the rims...Right now, I'm working on the headlights and the windshield. Again, I HOPE and PRAY that I finish this painting by Friday...

work in progress 5

Even though this project was due like about 4 1/2 weeks ago, I'm still working on it because I want to get a better grade for it. I made the shirt "red" again because it looked too monochromatic and I made the pants darker. I painted in the skin tones on his stomach and his left arm. I'm currently working on his right arm and then his face. Hopefully I'll be able to finish this painting by Friday...

Work in progress 4

I FINALLY finished the shirt. Now onto the hard parts: The skin & the FACE!!!

Work in progress 3

I figured I'd change the shirt from red to black...because I want his clothes to compliment each other. If I made the shirt red, I would have to put a little red somewhere either on his pants, or shoes..NOT his bandanna because I don't want him to look likes he's a blood or something...I don't know. that's just me.

Works in progress

Here is one of the pieces that I am working on for this term. I'm painting over a 3D base mesh (I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS4 to paint/I used Maya for the 3D) to get my proportions and lighting to match my reference. (Reference below)
