I can’t imagine why… Or can I?

Edit: Revised poor Hulkster for better likeness and overall betterness.

This blog needs an update. Here’s one. It’s a caricature of yet another Stylus member, Emma.

Couple of images for U16’s CTT activity again. The first is based on Shakes’ sketch and the second one is my character for the next in line.

Alright, I’ll be off for a few days eating sausage and drinking beer. I’ll be back next week. Hyvää juhannusta!

My quick take on Scott’s character, with a girlfriend. Check the link, there are others’ versions too.

I got me some new markers and a decent brush pen. This sketch was inked and shaded (in grayscale) with them and then colored in Photoshop.

Well, here’s another one of these girlie speedpaints - fairly loose one this time around. I liked the lighting and all the reflected light in the reference image.

Here are a few quick caricatures I’ve done of fellow Stylus members over the past few months. Not really funny ones, but at least couple of them have decent likenesses. But they were fun to do.

Here are the reference images…

…And the caricatures themselves.

 

Check their sites too. In order of appearance. Kiel’s, Jim’s, John’s and Dave’s.

The rest of the calendar images are coming up shortly, but in the mean time here’s something else. I haven’t gotten any drawing done since the holidays - save for some doodles in my sketchbook - so I’m glad to be finally doing it again.

This is just another photo referenced speedpaint of a naked girl - a redhead this time. I painted it in ArtRage 2 and really wasn’t sure if it would amount to anything, as it was technically a venture into the unknown for me. But what do you know, I think it turned out quite swell and was a lot of fun to do.

Support the protesting people of Burma by wearing a red shirt on Friday 28th of September (that’s tomorrow). For more info on the situation go here.

Same story as with the earlier ones - it’s a photoreffed speedpaint. I didn’t do any sketching or measuring and unintentionally ended up sexing her up with considerably longer legs.

Another late night speedpaint. Backs are interesting and tough to do (without photo reference, that is). There’s huge amount of variety, depending on the pose and how muscular the person is.

This is just a photo referenced speedpaint that I did before going to bed. For practice and pleasant dreams.
