Pirats room

Morning. Yesterday I was having a workshop with some kids and I made them choose between; a pirats room, a cowboy saloon or a street in paris. The assignment was to gather reference and take the best part of the pictures they found. I had a bit of time afterwards to noodle as well, so here is my result smile emoticon Arghhhh
1 Hour of gathering, drawing and putting on some values

Painting the parkour place

Hi
This is going to be a couple of post dedicated to a side project of pimping up my local parkour place

The first step was to take some pictures to get a overview of the walls and the size.

After flattening the pictures, I drew out a rough sketch in photoshop and used is as an image plane in Maya to help me make a mockup of the scene to help guide the perspective. I tried to get in some Norman rigs to play around with the poses and have fun staging the characters

No quite done with the scene, but in a stage where I could export (screenshot and past) back into photoshop and get some linework going.
I'll post some more update as the project moves along. The final image will be projected back on the wall and painted. Final size will be something like 8x4 m



Final step of the painting. The final drawing, made in maya and photoshop,  was projected up on the wall and traced with paint. Big rollers and sponges to paint the white part and smaller brushes to paint the black lines. The painting ended up taking two days to make and we made into the local news paper. I found it to be a very nice way to make something big on the walls and still incorporate the workflow I'm used to with the computer

3D asset for cigaros

Updating an old asset from a gamejam. I felt like it was time to see the difference between my understanding of maya two years ago and now. The game can be found here;

Concept thumbnails

A new approach at doing some black and white thumbs. A couple of them have enough substance to be fun to continue with colors to a finished level. It was also a fun way to brainstorm and just getting a lot of ideas out on the paper

TheConceptArtBlog

Just stumbled upon this very cool concept art page. It's loaded with concepts from games and film and definitely worth a visit

Fox paintings

Some fox paintings. After a break at work where I have been painting all day, it's nice to return to the canvas. I'm still struggling in each step of producing these paintings, but running the process through so many times lately makes it a bit easier. Sooooo much to learn!!!!
