Sketchy sketches

Hi, it's been quite some time since I haven't uploaded anything. So here are some rough sketches I've did yesterday.

Sci-Fi Vector Character

Here's a character I've made in Illustrator.

I will try to animate it in Flash some time in the future.

Game menu progress and a platypus

Here is the progress of the background for the game menu I've posted in my last blog entry.

I still have a lot of work to do, but I think it's comming along nicely.

And now for something random: Here's a platypus!

Game menu and some more work in progress

Here is a game menu for a fictional game . It was all made in Adobe Illustrator (it had been a while since I hadn't used it). I actually have some more ideas of menus in mind, so there will be more to come in the future.

The background is only temporary, as I'm planning to make a cool illustration for it.

And here is the progress of the cave painting I posted last time.

I've changed the view point to be more in front of the cave's entrance. The rest is pretty similar. In fact, the rocks on the left are the same. I also modified the color palet. I felt that it was to dull before.

Surprise on the vine and some work in progress

Here's a quick little painting I've made as a gift to my mom for mother's day:

Acrylic on watercolor paper

And here's another digital illustration in the making:

The Acrobats

Here is the rough color composition of the new illustration I am working on.

Collision Course: Final

And here is the final version of the illustration I started in the last post:

It had been a while since I had not touch my acrylic paints, so I'm very pleased with how this image turned out. And as usual, I have some closeups for you:

Made with acrylic paints on watercolor paper.

Collision Course: The progress so far

Here are some images of the progress of my new illustration.

First of all, I tried different colors for the big sea monster. This step was made in photoshop:

Then I printed my pen drawing in a bigger size, and transfered it on watercolor paper. This was followed by the underpainting made with Burnt Umber acrylic paint:

As you can see I've added two little friends to the little penguin for additionnal storytelling elements.

And fast forward a little bit, here's where I am right now:

And now, back to work!

Collision Course

Here's a fun little pen drawing I've made today. It was quite relaxing to do.

Pen on paper.

Curiosity

Here's a drawing for which I just had a vague idea of what I wanted to do. It was fun to just explore different ideas for the characters, however it also involved a lot of erasing, which doesn't make for a very clean drawing. Also, I really didn't succeed with the guy's pose. I'll probably color it sometime in the future.
