Traditional paintings on the way

I've been very slowly with updates and I've painted less digitally because I'm working on a few traditional paintings. I also recorded their progress and I will be able to have a timelapse for each painting.
Here's some mess while I'm striving to finish them by the end of this year.

 

Meanwhile here is a self portrait I've done for the international self portrait day.

And a thank you sketch for the birthday wishes I received this year :)

Pala Wip

A bit more progress to my fanart pala. I am caught up with some traditional artworks and I cannot spare more time for this atm
I hope to be able to finish it up by the end of the year, though!

Almost...

to the point of missing BlizzardFest. I just submitted my entry for it and I'm very happy. It's not what I wanted to achieve in the first place and with so many great works there I don't stand a chance, though I hope to get a vote or two!

Paintings, Meme & Resource

Been studding some light using ref . Rendering is way to much fun. Will do more.

Tea time? Sketch

A meme?

This came out last evening. It's not the first and not the most frustrating time facebook crashes on me. Couldn't help but draw a meme :p

 And a bunch of swatches I created a while ago. I wanted to share them earlier but totally forgot about them. I also have a color wheel coming up, soon. :)

Fun and Sketches

It's been a while and I have to admit I wanted to make a blog entry earlier, but I had a few things going on and I kept postpone it.

It's been a while and I finally got back to this. More progress & details on the gloves and belt.

Hand painted texture & Portrait

I've started up working on some hand painted textures. I love drawing things from scratch

and a speed portrait.

1hour speed sculpt for practice.

The Book of the Game

Illustrations I've done back in 2008 came together into an amazing story "The Book of the Game" by Mike Hood. These are great news :)

Study

I've started this study from scratch last year, lol, using a photo reference I found on characterdesigns.com.
I wanted to get it done before 2014, but due to work load and other projects it was on stand by.

Now that I call it finished I can move on to the next one! yay :)

I already posted these lapse stepts. Here they are again.
