Painted bust

Finished my homework for the week, mostly haha. Anyway getting back to painting after a little over a week. So here it is. Worked the sketch first getting composition and proportions as close as my skills allow. Then did a single layer paint after merging everything down to the background and the painting layer. I might finish this up by fixing the face. It is really bothering me. But other than that I'm happy with the results for the moment. I'll probably hate it tomorrow.

Digital Figure Paintings

I'm getting slightly more comfortable with my wacom but it still feels strange

Tried doing a straight up one layer only painting with this first one.

This one actually started life out as a panel ideation for a comic I'm working on but, ended up being figure studies hah!

Trying to do more studies of industrial designy stuff. So I did a light/plane study of this building.

Of the three this time around I only used one reference image.

Form Study Sculpts

I felt like my skill wasn't growing anymore, so I decided to change it up and build some more confidence with form studies via sculpting. This first few are going to be off the top of my head without reference.

My primary focus was the major forms of the chest and hips. I started with a light-box sphere. This was my first sculpt it was about 20 minutes to get the base form and 30 minutes with details.

 major forms for this one took about 5 minutes, and spent about 2 hours on details.
