Om nom, tasty green lady.

I don't know how to explain this one - this is what I 'saw' in my head on a long, long car ride home. They were dancing to whatever song was playing at the moment. It was both very awkward and awesome.]]> Wed, 09 Sep 2009 20:34:50 +0000 http://d-na.cgsociety.org/gallery/730062

I decided to change some things in what I do. In any case, here's a pretty peacock - I wanted to explore new ways of applying high detail in short amount of time.

I hope you like it

Geralt of Rivia, from videogame/books The Witcher. Painted for a contest at deviantArt (I won the third place, whee). I had a lot of fun with the bold colours and textured brushes.

And, my newest painting. I don't want to go into detail about it, but all I can say that almost everything here has a meaning. A new one for me.

And it's not about life and death and such stuff, simply because I don't think about those things.
Okay, maybe it is about time. But not in a way you think it is ;P

I used photo reference for pose and lighting. It's crazy what a difference well-placed lights make.

I guess I'll see you on the other side
I will be waiting till you come and dance
I'll let the river know you're moving in
I'll let you tango with my pretty fin

I wanted to paint a mermaid/butterfly image ever since I first heard Pati Yang's Pretty Fin. While the sole meaning of the song is quite debatable, the part that actually inspired me is a part that doesn't appear anywhere in lyrics sheets (websites, CD booklet and such), but she still sings it... something about underwater butterflies and lilies looking scary from beneath. :]

Speaking of lilies, I took a stab in the complete dark on them - the perspective is probably horribly wrong.

Two days, no ref (should've used some for hands, I guess), lots of fun.

Something I sketched on my vacation in Greece that I simply had to colour.

I experimented with lineart and colouring a little and I think it came out okay. I tried to make the owl 'glow' with love, hence why it stands out so much; though I'm not sure if it worked so well :P Colouring the tree took me longer than I had expected, but I'm satisfied with the end result.



Here are some details that got eaten up when I resized the image:
