[Workflow:video] 40%off

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

A practice took reference of a 40% off mag advertisement. The composition wasn’t planned well, i cropped the picture in the end as it seems lost focus, and my patience burned out…. gotta start CNY project quick. (more…)

lettuce_w450

There was a new friend i met on DA last week named anikoky.I find her ID pic very beautiful and inspiring, she was there gently holding a lettuce in her hand with a lovely smile, hence i made a pic based on her photo. Nevertheless, the features is just loosely based as this was initially just meant to be a quicky. Unexpectedly, the hand and lettuce took far more longer then i expected. (more…)

Continue exploring on SAI. No complaint on the painting process, the color blending and water stroke are superb. The programme itself is very light, unlike PS, it can flip the canvas in a click, and able to turn the canvas to arbitrary angle like painter. However, i still prefer PS for texturing at this point.

[Workflow] Rhino Hunting – The Triumph

rhino_hunting_2_450w

This was supposed to be a trial of SAI, but can’t hold on defining the form, eventually got back to PS. SAI is a unbelievable light CG painting tools. Give it a try if you always suffer from lagging.

Back to the work, this is a continuity on “Rhino Hunting – The Encounter”. I spent quite some time on this piece, as usual, patient worn out at the end. There are more particular to be taken care of, but i prefer to end this and move on.

p/s: I don’t encourage wildlife hunting in any mean, this is just a fictional CG.

Just watched [G.I Joe : The Rise of Cobra] weeks ago. Erm.. if you don’t question much, just sit down and watch, quite entertaining. Storm Shadow by Byung-hun Lee is cool but the last battle is kinda lame. Here is a fanart to mourn his death.
