I worked on this game doing some character illustrations, and am probably continuing to work with Studio Gigante, so I am startled by some of what's being said here. Some of the comments on this threa ...

I am looking for a plug-in or script that will create more realistic debris when making objects explode in Max. The regular bomb explosions look too flat and regular. It doesn't need to be super accur ...

Wow ChiaNi, is there a style you can't do? Fanstastic work! I'm growing more familair with your face than my own. Smile

>> Your style strongly reminds me on this guy's style: http://www.jo-chen.com/ <<

Jo Chen is a woman, just so everyone knows. The style is very similar, but I don't think it's as sophis ...

Good call, Malachi. Let me see what I can do. I don't know why I got so local on this piece, I think it was just all the detail.

I see what you guys said about seperation. I did a few more revisions to help the figures seperate into different depth planes and reposted the image. The drop shadow from the main figure should be sh ...

Here it is with some approved revisions. I added different patterns of balding and some beadwork in the beards, as well as some more tattooing. They still look very similar, but not as clonish like th ...

Yeah, I know what you mean about the identical giants. The refernce they had me used has them all looking alike excpet for arm tattoos and jewelry (same balding head, dark hair, etc.) I just talked it ...

Here are the prelim sketches I did for the cover. The first is a 5 minute rough I did in Photoshop, the second is a 15 minute pencil drawing I did after feedback, which I used as the guide for the pai ...

Here is the digital painting I did for the trade paperback of a new Demon Wars series by R. A. Salvatore being published by my company. I was told to go "Hildebrandt" on it, and I'm pretty happy with ...

Thanks guys. I appreciate the comments. [666]Flat, the Wolverine pin-up is indeed one of mine (wierd how both of these pieces are crouched big guys in snow. I did it while working on the X-Men books f ...

This is a page of a comic I'm doing the art for called Chimera to be published by CrossGen Comics. It's the introduction of a villian who has plummeted to a snowy plain from orbit, crawling out of the ...

I have recently started dabbling with using 3D models in my 2D digital painted work. I basically create 3D models, render the models as images using the 3DS Max scanline renderer, and then finally pai ...

It's amazing how much contrast and structure you can do with such a limited grayscale value structure. The rendering is lovely as usual. images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I just finished this tonight. It's for the cover of an upcoming trade paperback for the comic company I work for. The comic series is 'The First' and the costumes are already designed so I can't chang ...

Well, I will say I didn't do it in a weekend, which isn't what I said. I said I got Flash last weekend, and I didn't finish the animations until Thursday. I have done limited animation in school, but ...

Don't know if this is appropriate for this forum but here it goes. Got Flash and learned it from scratch last weekend, and put together a little digital animation intro and website thats pretty good f ...

Hello Folks,

Haven't posted for a few day, as I've been working on a new flash website for myself and other odds and ends. This is for a cover to a comic book series called Mystic, which is Art Nouve ...

I use a 6x8 Wacom with Photoshop 5.5. I don't use paths. I usually just freehand the curves, but on the big balcony in the sunset piece I did use the line tool a little to get that really long curve. ...

From nothing to finished is how I gauge time. No pencil, no prep.

Here's another quicky (30 minutes) of the Emperor in that comic book I'm doing. Sort of a Sean Connery look (deliberate).

Felt like seeing if I could do a 1 hour painting. I'm pretty happy with it. From 5:00 PM to 6:00PM today. Hellboy is a very cool comic book character by Mike Mignola published by Dark Horse Comics. Fe ...

Eeep!

Momma always said never make a villain look like he's gotta tinkle! I fixed that mistake. Hopefully this works better. Good eye, sir!

Hello all,

Here is a piece I did over about 14 hours (yeek!) It is villian from that comic book thing I've been working on. I also did a smaller version so you can see the overall effect. I think it ...

Here is a marker and ink drawing I did over 6 hours today. I used colored pencil to add some detail and texture. With all the digital stuff I've been playing with, it's fun to get a little hands on.
