Tilt Master - L'expédition d'Égypte sous les Ordres

Having some fun with Léon Cogniet's work.

(NO. I did not - as many people thought - just put it into a frame and tilted it).

Fungalf

experimental portrait without ref. I did mainly experiment with colors and shapes. those mutations are inspired by fungi btw.

Spitpaintings: Black & White

Topic: Will-o-Wisp
started out black and white this time and had no time to color it in the 30 mins allowed ):
hardcore value control.. I should have had exaggerated the brighter values more..
well I guess I got lost in all the smaller shit..











Topic: Heavy Defenses
this one was planned to be colorless because I wanted to focus on other stuff..






















mushroom-mechaaaaaaaaa go!

Spitpainting "Underground Home" 2

starting in artrage and finishing up in photoshop:

Spitpainting "Underground Home"

Squid Dive

This one was some quite interesting process. After restructuring the initial sketch and combining several studies in one piece (style of skin-shading, structures, squid), I've decided to use a glitch tool many times to distort the state into something I had in head. I wanted to change the composition/narration into a slightly different direction.
Then I took all the many random outcomes of the glitch I liked and recomposed them to create focus, flow and the feel of the character breaking through a surface in some weird distorted way.
In a cyberpunk kind of virtual way.

Rorschach Glitch Portrait

had this rorschach scan file from some fun drinking evening flying around in my files and thought why not put it onto a face and create some weird portrait.
the second process was to shoot it through a glitch tool and composing the glitch parts the way I wanted. more to come.

Tilda Swinton Mutant

So yeah. Something different this time, I had those different impressions in my head and tried combining them in a photobash kind of approach.. on Tilda Swinton.

Banished in Ink

Lone Wanderer

something I've put together from sketchbook-photographs. it's kind of a self portrait, since I am alone on this path, trying to cope with my colitis ulcerosa. struggling with my health; and sometimes I feel lost, like in an endless desert, no idea where my path should go..
thanks to my supportive family and my colleagues for being there for me!!

Giant Insect from my Sketchbook

found this guy in my sketchbook and thought I share him (:

Finally Artrage 4 - Dooodle

so yeah, after I finally fixed the pen pressure problem for the new artrage I experimented with the tools, set up a few own ones and finally doodled up this guy.

Winter Doodle

Meet Meat Face

having fun and playing around  weeeeeee

Focus, Fight and Flesh

Blue Dragon Sketch

old pencil sketch I revisited for fun. colouring black and white afterwards with photoshop ain't that easy..

Cosmic Ritual - Opening of the Gate

stylistic experiment ahoy.
an old piece that I started to do years ago for my ex.. and now revisited, did some strong changes inspired by a new girl and using it as a hypersigil for one of my sigils.

Summer Storm

some chilled doodling inspired by the weather outside. started as a cloud painting, then added the other stuff step by step trying out if I am able to do what I want to do. digital painting is a charm.

Spirit Card Sketches

I got a new spirit card commission, which was a rather abstract matter. I decided to pack it into the form of a kind-of-a-tree-being, growing black roots into the ground and holding an artifact floating above itself resembling a crown. First I did some pencil sketches, then picked my two favorites and did a fast digital overpainting to check out possible values and the overall feeling.
You can find the finished card here.

Somewhere lost

Spitpainting "Undersea Zombie"

did a lot of other art-stuff.. too long no digital painting. trying to get back in.. took me around an hour. I wasn't able to let go of it at the 30 min mark x)

Orange Juice

playin around

Cyberpunk Test

experimenting again.. more of a comic style. did a loose digital line drawing and then colored it, kinda..

Architecture One

I'm learning construction and perspective right now and this is one of the things I've created. Sat down here and did some digital overworking. Light and shit.

Matte Speedpaint

Constructed the place and textured it with parts from photos.. and add the lighting and stuff. Was an interesting challange.

First Snow - Mouse Speedpaint

The first snow is falling here and I wanted to catch that strange twilight and shining roofs. My camera is not able to catch it.. damn it. Since my tablet was not ready I've just painted this with my mouse...

Blame Fanart-Speedpaint

hell yes. I just love Blame too much. Listening to Oyaars and Fedaden.

Spitpainting "Dungeon Crawler"
