As a follow up to previously uploaded sea creature paintings and studies, here is a character concept for the air pilot. the thought was to reimagine a human, who evolved from Octopus instead of chimpanzees. I used this little project to familiarise myself with male anatomy and muscles.

Evolved from Octopus : Air Pilot
As a follow up to previously uploaded sea creature paintings and studies, here is a character concept for the air pilot. the thought was to reimagine a human, who evolved from Octopus instead of chimpanzees. I used this little project to familiarise myself with male anatomy and muscles.

Octopi, Sea Creatures and Air pilots
These are series of study sketches ( with a twist , the colour finishing) for a collaborative character design task . The theme is Air pilots, but they have descended from sea creatures, (shown in images underneath).
They are extremely quick to draw, each taking roughly 30-40 min. I am keen to boldly explore use of colour and some new visual depicting techniques ( Thanks for the tips to Tom McDowell, great artist! ).

Painting with Cintiq, New Winds
Last week it was my first time ever I got to get close to one of them Cintiq screens, and I can only say it feels as it could develop into some form of addiction to drawing :D Really great tool! So, if there is good 20 minutes free, I exercise in sketching. So these two below are my first attempts (:]
This octopus, I imagine, should be first of the series of sea creatures, which I am studying for a personal collaborative character design project (more about it when I upload few more examples in the future). I study real life reference , but to make it more of a interesting task, as well as explore character colour palettes, I just experiment with colour and composition
Another hour-long drawing was done for a topic by Illustration Friday Challenge:

was not important to me. I wanted only to help the truth burst forth." Alice Miller
It's been 3 solid weeks of drawing every day! ( yay!) and I feel like my hand is back from the dead, so to say. I hope there will be lots more to share (:]
