Ink rev suite 2

Random swings for 40 minutes

Ink rev section suite 1

Now opening another Ink rev section : Ink rev section suite.

Just to remind me I got to be into new stuff... kinda >.>

I'm now using Gimp 2.8 on windows 7... After I changed the theme it's not that bad, just few things I don't like but beside that it's like on ubuntu.

Using the same brushes and tools so it's not much different.

Ink rev 311

So... I didn't think much about the concept at first. I wanted that girl first, then I thought it was too simple, too... I dunno...

A background and an overall work on lightning and colors is definitely good for the eye. I understood most tricks Marc Brunnet used but there's a whole difference between theory and real-time practice... So it's not as good as I expected but I'm kinda proud of the smooth result.

Maybe I should have put more work into the hands... But seriously those are just a pain to me :(

Simple colors. I don't know really... But I had a lot of fun and I think that's enough to make it worth a good practice =)

Also I didn't get the new version of Gimp yet... I have to update Ubuntu and I can't do it right now. Guess it's not that bad anyway :p

Ink rev 310

It's been a long time since I tried something... colorful. I just saw Marc Brunet work, a 26 years old artist. I hope I can do such colorful, full of life painting like him...
I wanted to do a painting quite fast. I did it fast, not enough though. I didn't know what I want to make, just anything to practice.

The base drawing wasn't that bad but the character is definitely plain, hopefully I managed to put some elements to hide that plain feeling.
Practice is practice but I wished I could do much better :/
Took me around 5 hours

Edit: Okay... Now I watched a video speed painting by Marc Brunet ... In Slow Motion to see what he really does. And I think I understand a couple of tricks from that :D

I might do something nice next time, now I'm working on some test for school buuuuuuut I can't wait to try those new tips >:D

Ink rev 309

I was kinda bored and try that "Flaming Gimp" thing that was quite a success back then at the rift contest.
I didn't take my time and try finishing something really fast.

So here I go => 1hour painting (those colors really remind me of Turrican main screen)

Better quality here

Concept : Beast and Dom

About 30 min

Let's stop the charac design, and start looking for good concepts =)

Ink rev 308

I wanted to test a new brush of mine, it seems it works well, just with one swing I could make the horn with a lot amount of details.

Took me 1 hour and a half to paint this sort of succubus for fun =)

(Better quality on deviant art)

Ink rev 307

30 min, love cats :D

Ink rev 306

It's been a while... Mister Anderson ... OKay stop stop !

(Once again) Hey guys ! I've been playing a lot to Vindictus recently but holidays are over... It's 2012 already and I thought I would test myself through this character.

Took me about 3 or 4 hours cause I didn't really know where I was going (like always) but it's done anyway.

Hope you like it :p

Also I've been in a urge to paint because of Sintel DVD I just got... A masterpiece...
