Art Camp: Environments - Homework #1

So I enrolled in Noah Bradley's Art Camp this past weekend, as soon as I heard about it. Specifically in the summer program, which is Environmental Concept Design with Titus Luntner.

Which would be great, but they're already on week 5.

And there was a bug on their back end, so I couldn't get into the streams until a couple of days later.

Berk...

So fast forward to me not knowing how to do thumbnails, but doing my best to watch a crap ton of videos and follow along as fast as I can. This so far is the result. I definitely like the newer ones better than the older ones. In the future I'd like to do these every day to loosen up.

...thought I was taking a break from these, but there seems to be a problem with my account, and I can't access my courses yet. So here is yet another one.

Topic: Liquid Fire

My nights are often filled with whiskey, cats and 30 min spitpaints. But likely not for much longer, because I just signed up for Noah Bradley's Art Camp. Can't wait for my account to get activated, soon all of my homeworks will get sketchdumped here as well, whoohoo!

Mister Muffin
always puffin
with his drink
who would've think -
er, thought?

Waterfall Villa

Taking a break from spitpaints for the rest of the month to do some more landscape studies.

Topic: Game with Death

As a high school kid, I read a lot of Neil Gaiman's Sandman hidden in my friend's closet like a cat, listening to Faith No More while the rest of the gang watched Twin Peaks. I always thought Death would have made an awesome big sister. Lucky King of Dreams!

Topic: Dieselpunk Mole

or as Mike called him, "some sorta middle-aged possum" :P

Harold Mole was hard of hearing
though he always attended mass.
He's always in stripey overalls
to hide his gigantic ass.

Topic: Asteroid Miner

Simultaneously scanning salty bets
while sketching spitpaints on the sly
For today, Evo's as good as it gets
Street Fighter, margaritas, and cheering chimp guys.

Spitpaint #15

Topic: Greed Monster

Atop piles of riches
Lies a dragon who never does dishes.
One day he awoke
went out for a smoke
and found himself swimming with fishes.

Topic: Mirror Creature

Through each and every mirror
she creeps from sink to sink
to scoop up the souls of goldfish
saved from the ocean's brink.

The Stork, part 2

kept on going, 2hrs total...will maybe add in a background tomorrow.

Topic: The Stork

From her lofty perch she hums
and sighs, what mortals lie beneath
her rays of reflected beam she sends
to earth, to relieve night's quiet grief.

I'm guesting in a friend's Planescape game, playing the daughter of the moon...so 2 birds one stone. :)

And here's a bonus picture of Ico: "I'll help you Mom! zZzzzzz..."
