Leaving the temple
My most recent dnd character on a snippet of his backstory, just because I’ve been out of the art game for months because of that arm, shoulder, hand and finger pain. It’s not a very interesting piece, but I needed something simple to slowly transition back into my usual work routine.
"Watch your back, he's here somewhere"
Fresh eyes made this image possible, as well as the sixth iteration over the original one. If you look at them from top to bottom, they tell the tale of a very confused 2/3 of a SWAT team.
Tiny Dragon
Don’t read this yet, look at the picture then come back. ...
What do you think the lil’ fellah is doing? How come those other flowers are closed and this one’s open? Is he making it bloom with the light from it’s tale? Is this how this species feeds? Aro those in the background even more of this tiny dragons? If you asked yourself those questions, and even answered them by just looking the picture for the first time (or after I told you to) then it means I did a good job. If not, well, I tried.
Usurper
In case you’ve been following this last posts, the from now on known as “The mysterious pain in my arms” series keeps going strong, with it’s twists and turns and cliffhangers and all. A couple weeks ago, the game Overwatch had a free weekend event, where you could play the game for three days without paying, and since it’s a beautifully designed piece of work, I decided to take the chance and try it. Since I knew that I can use my mouse and keyboard for maybe 10 minutes before the pain starts, I wasn’t really confident to do much. Just take a look around and uninstall it forever. To my surprise, I spent several hours playing and the pain was nowhere to be found. Not only that, but after the free weekend has ended, I started to go back to work and painted for a while. Maybe not so many hours as I used to before this whole thing started, but I managed to put in 3/4 hours straight (with the usual breaks of course). I also started to go the gym (but that was a week before I started playing) and I have only felt pain on a few occasions. Was (or still is) the pain a psychological thing? Is it the sudden movements of the mouse that an FPS like that requires that shook the pain away? Because there is a lot written about gaming as a cause of RSI’s, but not much about healing them.
And if you are here for the art (god bless you) that is the piece I managed to make during this almost pain free oasis, but I am currently on board the #inktober2017 ship, so if you check (and follow) me on instagram, you’ll find daily little drawings, mostly nature themed, and some other stuff. Thanks for your time.
Character Design - Father Jacob
Good news, I don’t have CTS. Bad news, nobody has given me any diagnosis or appropriate treatment to help me with the pain I’ve been feeling. So I just have to keep visiting doctors until they find out what it’s wrong with me. In the meantime, I have reduced my work hours to a bare minimum, so expect even scarcer updates.
Character Design - Battle priest Ignum
Hey folks! Several kinds of pain in several places alongside my arms have put me out of the game for a while. I still need one test to confirm it 100%, but my doctor is pretty sure its carpal tunnel syndrome. That means that my already slow pace with this posts its about to get even slower. And since typing this very words its hurting my hands, this is the end of this text. Oh, wait, I still have to write the goddamn tags...
Character design - Exarch Veil
I’m having a lot of fun with designing these characters. I may or may not have a visual development project going on right now... so stay tuned! ...what an awful cliché thing to say, what is this, a podcast?
Backstory: Also known as “The veiled warrior”, this figure is a mystery, even for his own order. Oncea mercenary, he was brought to join the church and was awarded de title of Exarch as means to keep him on their side. His martial efficiency and brutal ways make him a force to be feared for the heathens that dare oppose the faith.
Remember the last post? No? go look at it, then come back. ... Done? OK. This is supposed to be the “natural antagonist” of the Moonkhin, a creature of legend that was concieved to undo Khin’s (God’s) creation. The concept behind this design is that if you got swallowed by one of them, you won’t just die. You get erased from existence. No one will remember you lived (or died) and your footprint on the world will banish: If you had children, they will be erased too; if you built a house, it will no longer be; if you influenced change in a person, he or she will become as they were before they met you. It’s a bummer. I went for something alien looking, decaying, with an anatomy not meant to be plausible (this thing kind of looks like a fish, but it flies instead of swimming) with elements of lamprey, koi fish, whale and your typical western dragon.
Man, do I neglect this site... Hiya folks, miss me? I’ve reduced significantly my work pace because I’m learning a skill I felt was lacking: Character design. And since is a field i’m really drawn to, character design for video games specifically. This weird dude is part of my yet unnamed IP, from which you may see some illustrations if you take a look at previous entries. More of that coming soon!
Shieldhide Dragon - Practise assignment Hei! So long without posting... Among other non art related things, I’ve been working on another of these fake assignments, where I search for an art description of a MTG card and try to do my best. This one is Shieldhide Dragon, by Chris Rallis. After completing this exercises, I look up the originals and, oh man, what a smack in my tiny little artist ego!
Mongorc
A quick character concept for a mongol-esque orc race.
Spell casting in the dark
Another old “finished” painting. This one from 2015. Lately I’ve been revisiting old entries on my deviantart account and found some (by that time awesome) but now barely passable work. And that’s the point I want to talk about in this post. Don’t post everything you do online. You don’t have to be supper satisfied and happy with a piece, but try and upload only your best work by your actual standards. One, two or three pieces a week it’s okay. But just random drawings done in a whiff and uploaded “just cuz today didn’t upload anything” isn’t going to help. Because everyone knows that revisiting old drawings to see how much you progressed is a good thing, but if there’s a lot of bad stuff, even by that time standards, you will get a false sense of progress. Compare your new best work only to your past best work. Those pieces you really felt you were proud enough of to share with the world.
RIP dragonslayer Tim
Fun fact: Dropping your arrows it's the archery equivalent to crapping your pants.
Sidisi, Undead Vizir - Practise assignment
Not so much a fanart, but kind of. I looked up art descriptions given by art directors to Magic: The gathering artist's and, without looking at the finished piece, I tried to take it as if it was commissioned to me. It was a really fun exercise, and once I was done, looking at the actual image, "Sidisi, Undead Vizir" by artist Min Yum, made me realise a lot of mistakes and things I should have done differently
Cleric Alhana
Personal piece. Trying to build up speed and maybe stablish a clearer process.
Battle mages A break from my big fat card project. Went through the roof with the post procesing on this one. Too much. Waaay too much.
Rootmancer
I've been binge watching Avatar, both Aang and Korra, and that put me in the mood for some bending inspired nonsense.
