Yes, please! Let’s make this shirt happen.

burlypress:

Here’s a shirt design I’ve been submitting (with no luck yet) to the shirt-a-day sites. I’ll probably end up printing it on my own sometime or setting up a redbubble store.

It comes from a Geeks Who Drink team name my friends in ABQ came up with one quiz night a while ago. So credit to Sean and Sara for that :D

I tried to incorporate Lovecraft era tourism and advertising as well as a bit of silent film flare.

A recent sculpt done as a part of a blog group. Not finished in any way, lots remains to be done. Originally planned to be in a compositon as an interpretation of Lovecraft, but time was short. Will keep refining as we work on more stuff :)

Getting close to final…These were rendered rather hastily and ‘shopped together for prints under a pretty tight deadline. Going to seriously comp for the next two days…

Leather test out of VRay. Displacement, normal, diffuse and some spec. Still needs work but hopefully it’s mostly there.

Two updates in one, a detail pass and a pose. Should be done on time for the gradbook (a subtool adjustments pass and a Photoshop paintjob) but yet more remains for EL DEMOREEL. I’m getting more and more excited about this giant guy now that he’s getting closer to finish. Hope you like it :)

detail pass. I’m gonna go texture now.

I think this is it for now, mainly because I have to turn it in tomorrow. Shading seems to be there, values are more or less ok. Colors suck, but I blame it on my non-painterly nature and dodge and burn tools which lie to you :)

Still needs a ton of work, but this is the first pass of the dodge and burn painting thingy in good ole Photoshop that we were assigned as some lighting practice. I was pretty frustrated last night, almost gave up, but this morning changed to a different picture and gave it another go. Will finish in the evening over some wine. Why can’t I just produce a B&W shaded version?

NB The image I used is not mine. Unfortunately I could not find where I downloaded it and reverse image search returned nothing, but whoever took the photo - the credit is to him/her.

Last but not least, the giant was brought into this world, metaphorically speaking of course, by Peach, who is a very cool painter and designer. She also kindly let me use it as more of an inspiration for a character. Plus, giants are awesome. I am having fun with this one.

Been working on the giant, here’s the latest so far…
