I decided (obviously) to make the large island the centre of attention. I've also been working hard getting the buildings to look right (struggling tons).

I've started dropping colour and adding a few layers of clouds as guides for later.

Break Through

I do believe I made a break through today. I added more textures via brushes and then did direct painting over it to pick out the details.

I'm a little worried about my composition right now.

Crack 3

Not much to say, still rendering out. Gonna jump in with rock detail next, or maybe start fleshing out the buildings more?

Skyscape WIP 2

I'm REALLY REALLY struggling with getting this rock to appear. I've decided after much struggle, to go for large shapes and then break them down bit by bit.

Things are still pretty rought atm, but I really need to nail this part as it's very important to the overall piece!

Skyscape WIP

I've decided to give a shot at the new ConceptWorld competition entitled

"Vibrant Sky-Scape"

Below is my first WIP

Sheldon Borenstein is a GOD

His book is gold for drawing the human figure especially women! I'm learning like MAD. I would recommend him over even life drawing classes, there is nothing like it!

I did it!

My first real concept painting finished!

It was hard. It took long. Too long, but that's okay, it was my first time. I realise now the importance of really making an accurate sketch. You can only polish so much before you run into problems that take ages to fix.

I'm proud of this, and I'm proud of myself. Totally DIDN'T intend for her to look asian :P
