Here are some more studies done for Schoolism.com, this time for Jonathan Hardesty’s class. Studies of composition, values, edges, and also playing with their intensity.

Another batch of studies I did for schoolism.com’s Tonko House class; quick color sketches done with natural diffuse light before the the sun moved too much =]

Some more studies I’ve been doing through the last months and forgot to upload. This is from schoolism.com’s Tonko House class; quick sketches with diffuse light, and in some of them a variant with a direct light. Fun stuff!

I’m keeping up a daily study schedule. These are 30~60min studies from movie screenshots. The first five from The Prisoners and the last from Deathproof.

Recently I made the cover art for #MyNightJob (available at http://store.steampowered.com/app/437100/ and soon on PS4), so I felt like sharing the process =]

I’m studying to improve my painting skills, so I’m taking classes from schoolism.com. This time with Nathan Fowkes (Designing with Color and Light). Guess I still have a lot to learn!

Some images have two versions. In these cases, the first was my first attempt, and the second a more refined version after watching some of his feedbacks given to other students.

So, decided to suck less at painting so I’m taking some classes. There are two images of each lesson because the left one is the one I did right after watching it and the one on the right is my second attempt after watching some of the feedbacks given to other students. I’m taking the Sam Nielson lessons from schoolism.com, about fundamentals of light, and strongly recommend it =]

*All the base drawings were made by Sam Nielson.

Did some fanart for Final Fantasy VII inline with the ones I did for VIII. Maybe I’ll do more, this is fun =)
