Legacy confirm and updates




It's been an interesting month for me especially working on Project Legacy Kanto. The one i uploaded on my deviant art, it is freakin huge. Image Size ->  4316 x 2406.  So i'll upload a smaller version here.

This painting below is size 1920 x 1080

About Legacy Kanto

Story of this painting. Red recently became the champion of Kanto, you play as a traveller arived to Pallet town and it is your role to start your journey and become the next champion.

Spoiler alert: Ending... you didn't get to fight Red cause he went to Johto. So instead you fight -> (Some one else which i don't want to tell you just yet ).  But i will paint the concept soon.
Therefore, Legacy Johto will be on next year. 


 GENETIC REBIRTH

The painting which not 100% satisfied yet, i did a step by step on my previous topic.

 And i even made an extended version. But before Genetic Rebirth concept existed, i did made an untitled version with the similar concept with a different angle.


My story of this version is more towards on Giovanni's second attempt to create another Mewtwo and somehow it is kinda success. " #What if "

SNEEK PEAK BIANCA

I sketched Bianca / Bell few days ago. I'm not intended to finish this because i'll be working on side story for Legacy Kanto and possible Legacy Johto on next year release. So i only got 2 simple steps of the work.

Step 1 - Rough sketch, this piece is something that i might probably develop on the future. 
About her character, she is rather cheerful and she has a bunny teeth when she smiles.                                                                

Step 2 - I added value and that's it. I did research her attire and decided improvise her skirt, the original design of her skirt is longer but if i follow the design, the painting on this image might look weird. JUST SAYIN....


Yep...... of course this is NOT MY FINAL DESIGN.  I still need to sketch out different faces and maybe another pose.

Other Poke Related stuff

Just to let you guys know that i do collect Pokemon Cards. And recently, my parents bought me japanese cards from Osaka Japan. Went to the Pokemon Center and it is really amazing.....Yep.....they actually play the Pokemon Center Theme...... MANLY TEARS!!!!!!

Matte Painting try-out

Took a picture today ~

A Tyre shop caught fire somewhere near my neighborhood.

                             A good opportunity to try out Matte Painting. It is a representation of a landscape which allows filmmakers to create an illusion of an environment. The image itself can tell many different interesting stories. So right now i'll try to bring my imaginary visuals to life. Will update on this time to time....


For now i've used custom texture brush to create cracks on ground. I'll try to add more stuff later on.

Here's something else i play around with my camera xD


Full body shot [Hollywood Hulk Hogan]


Close up shot.


And then there's Gundam....

A Poke idea "Working on Promo"

Pokemon "LK" my game art idea project. Will be upload on deviantart soon maybe around 1 week or less. But at the mean time ill be showing the promo art which i started moments ago. I've already created an illustration of it but some how i'm not satisfied with it so i decided to recreate a new one from scratch again. Here's the sketch for the moment...


Begin with a rough line art, make sure the proportion and perspective angle are properly align. I can always sketch them later.

Fill in the shape to form a silhouette of Mewtwo. Is ok to draw over the lines cause i can always erase them later.


Adding in the value to show the shape. For now is rough, i'm going to correct them.


Over here i'm trying to make sure that the proportions are correctly attached and to understand the roundness of the object.


Next step is to create the muscle structure. Understand how the body bends forward even thought is a bit exaggerated, i will try to make it subtle later on. Always look out for references and understand them, use imagination and creativity to bring out the visuals and relate them to the objects. 

Will continue tomorrow, good night xD

 ~ The next day ~


Try out some custom texture brush. I also readjust the rib cage on his body and muscles.


Adding a base color by masking the body.


Next step is adding some rough color background just to make sure i keep the flow going.


And then i added some light just to indicate which direction it shines.


next is working on the face.


Is getting there ~

more details and I've also added lighten effect just to bright up Mewtwo.


adjust the vibrance and contrast of Mewtwo. Looking forward to refine the hands and feet soon.


Use texture brushes to create these details on the leg. Paint them in a flow direction. I can refine them later on.


Texture on chest and abs. Later on ill be adding veins and blur out some part of body so that it wont look flat.


Play around brushes just to enhance Mewtwo's nose and forehead. Added more details on belly as well.


I added more strokes for the background. I'm trying to create a weird dimension looking world but right now, it is still on the early stages. I've also reduce the darkness of It's nose so from far distance the painting will look more subtle.


Working on the back ground. I'm going for a bit abstract.


Over here i'm trying to clean out the outlines. I duplicate another Mewtwo in grey scale just to make sure no additional strokes which is unnecessary. So far so good... 


And this is what i manage to paint for today. I will update more tomorrow cause there's still lots to be done.

Will continue tomorrow, good night xD

~ The next day ~

~ The day after actually xD ~

Was kinda busy yesterday so....


I added more strokes and refined edges. And also adjust the brightness and contrast following with vibrance so the color wont look too sharp.


Painting the spoon and having a real spoon beside my screen for references. I've also exaggerated the bottom part of the spoon and make the object feel heavier. 


 Make sure Mewtwo really hold on the spoon and also testing out the mist on the bottom.


Next step is to check and make sure the light shines on the proper direction.


I've also tried out different color scheme for the background.

~ Check Point Reach ~

Process is over ....for the moment. It's not finish yet cause i still need to try out different method. I will update when i finished the whole thing cause right now is more a less done, the only thing left is refining and adding more details. 

More Updates and Project Poke Finale Coming Soon....

Thanks for viewing :)

Plasma Gale FTW....

Sophia the walker

Just watched Walking Dead  season 3 recently, checked out the recap of season 1 and 2. My favorite scene so far was the part when Sophia came out from the barn.


That scene was really emotional. So apparently it stuck in my head last night and today's practice i shall paint her. I'm going to take my time on this one :)


Begin with a zombie pose simillar to the scene.


I work on with the background door first just to understand the tone of the painting so that i wont mess up the coloring. The door texture is done by pure custom brushes no filter or what so ever. I mask them with layers so i can play with the brushes to form the texture.


I fill in the gap after i completed the lines and sketches. And get ready to color with light and dark tones. Normally my method is create the value using  grey scale and overlay with colors but this time i do it with colors



Very light render on the face using light and dark tones. The process is slower this time cause i took my time to try out the brushes which i downloaded recently.


Right now i shape in her shirt. As for the face, i shrink her cheeks a bit sharper and filled in the details. There's more details need to be add in but for now i try to paint another part of her body.


I would say it's 45% done right now... Rendering the pants and shirt. I also reduce the size of her heard. I'm going to paint her hair soon and then her arms and legs including the shoes. Render the whole body and can start adding details such as scars and blood and etc. As long i completed the body then i shall continue with the background.


HAIR!!!!! So far this is what i manage to paint. Somehow her hair looks kinda flat. I'm going to darken the back of her head and lighten the highlights and to make it pop out. Not to mention with her face, gonna adjust some face structure later on. 


lol keep on painting untill i forgot to keep track on it cause i merge the layers....

anyways link to the full painting -> http://burninmaned.deviantart.com/art/Sophia-as-walker-335640448?ga_submit_new=10%253A1351869666&ga_type=edit&ga_recent=1

Over here is the painting without the door background...
