Go cliche dragon! hehe

I probably won't ever get around to participating, but it would be interesting to see everyone else going through the creative process. I could learn something Very Happy

hehe

, where the hell do you guys get these nice textures i see Question

Petri.J · Posted: Sat Aug 20, 2005 1:20 am

I used for those a photo of a plywood, and a chipboard.

5 says yes and 6 says perhaps. Looking good. So I'd say that atleast 2 will actually participate, and that's way over my expectations. Very Happy

..still waiting for the answer from my "client"

Nice thumbs, Petri. You ask if we're going to participate.... but what do you mean? Participate how? Are people supposed work from your thumbnails... or... what? I'm confused.

I had imagined this idea would be more of a group activity like draw club except for finished work rather than sketches.

As in, The thread states the time frame and the topic, and however much time later when the deadline comes, the thread fills up with people's creations which people gab about / can add to portfolio / can criticise / can provide an opportunity to learn something of the illustration process that comes after sketching / etc. you get the idea.

OK, I'd like to participate, and I've made a rough of my idea. Should I post it here or do the whole thing and then post the various stages of the creation of the image?

Petri.J · Posted: Thu Aug 25, 2005 11:14 am

Spiral: I think it's better to post them now and that way people might get inspired by them. I'm sorry it took me couple days to reply to this, I had to repair my computer.

Capt. Fred: I find it is hard to criticise work that it already finished - or actually not hard, but not very useful. That person who made the painting is not going to change the "errors" any more when it's finished. And as I said before, it might inspire people to draw when they see paintings coming together.
Edit: I saw your PM today, I don't know why it didn't show earlier..

I'm still waiting for the answer from my entry.

Hmm! I will give this a shot Petri.J, I have never done a highly polished image! From scartch! This will be a time to really force color and every thing i have learned...

Petri.J · Posted: Sun Sep 04, 2005 11:35 pm

Yeah, same here, and I think the biggest problem will be the fact that I will get tired to the painting, after looking at it several hours. And when I get tired to it, I start chaging it, and then it goes from bad to worse. Rolling Eyes

I try not and let that happen when i paint, allways thinking about what it could look like when it is done or what i could be doing with it and trying out new things for i dont get bored or tired of a painting...

First thumb! Ill try to get a couple more for today

Petri.J · Posted: Thu Sep 15, 2005 12:53 pm

Seth1: Lookin' good, keep going Smile

I should do a poster for school, and it should be near finished, for next wensday. The subject is "from ice and snow". I should do a comic too, with the same subject and deadline, so things keep busy Very Happy

(Though I already have the idea for it, so all I have to do is draw it..)
So anyway, here is the sketch for the poster.

Now to sleep. ZZzzz.
Edit: Almost forgot. It's supposed to be an ice sculpture.

Trying to figure out the reflection, specularity and transperency. Kind of hard to do finished painting. Those speed paintings are much more forgiving.

Max · Posted: Sat Sep 17, 2005 2:58 pm

Ver nice!! But I liked the one with the apple much more - adds an interesting atmosphere to the whole image.
I have some suggestions but before I start to talk forever I just made this paintover to illustrate you what I mean. I hope that's okay!
I changed the composition and the lightning, that's all actually Very Happy

Hope it helps. Keep up the good work!

I don't know if I'm "participating" persay, but, if anyone's interested...I'm about to finish a piece based on one of these compositions. The theme is "warrior chick" just random.

Petri.J · Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 4:32 am

Thanks Max, I really should put some contrast in it, that those beams was a good idea. I'll add them later. People like that apple verion better, but since I don't like it, and since I'm so stubbern, I refuse to do it Very Happy

(Propably when I look at this painting after couple months, I realize that those people was right, but that's too late.)
Xillion on cgtalk suggested, that if there would be some one inside. So i made a test if it would work.

gizmodus · Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 4:56 am

wow, petri!
it definately looks as if someone would be inside the ice. looking awesome!

Petri.J · Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 10:58 am

I'm kind of having problems with detailing snow, and how thick/thin should the ice be.
I honously tried to detail that snow, but the overpaint layer allways went straight to trashcan. 6 times.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll do better.

Petri.J · Posted: Fri Sep 23, 2005 10:45 am

It's an ice sculpture that want's to be a real girl. I proudly present to you, Miss Pinocchio!
That painting just went crazy, I have nothing to do with it. Honoustly Very Happy

Well, atleast the snow worked out little better than earlier this week.
