Back to concepts! Getting properly to work on an idea that's been knocking around in my head for years but has never gotten the attention it deserved. Well, after years of organic tribal stuff.. it's time for sci fi! This project is called Two.
More Two character concepts. The first two are for Maria, Two's alternate universe counterpart and the reason that she's been pulled into this world.
Mar is a scientist in the upper levels of the Scientific Sector. She specializes in Neuro-Chemistry and the study of Alternate Realities, although she is extremely intelligent and familiar with many areas of study.
Pregnant through in vitro fertilization performed by herself; her baby is essentially a scientific experiment of her own design.
The government believes her baby to be a dangerous new Manifest and seeks to control the situation. Maria can be described as being highly intelligent, calculating, ruthless, selfish, possessing questionable ethics, physically defenseless, and cold.
Secondly, some uniform concepts for Authority (government) employees. These ones are fairly general - I may do some more specific ones for different branches later.
I've been spending a lot of time writing up a ton of details on the worlds of both Two and Riak over the past couple of months. It's a shame though because it's a lot of work that I can't really share just by posting, so I'll try to share bits and pieces when I post work.
Since armageddon-levels of smoke are preventing me from leaving the house on this lovely August afternoon, I got a lot of work done instead! Here's a couple concept pages focusing on the clothing, textiles, and general aesthetics of The Tide - a name I use to generally refer to a region of Riak.
I knew I was going to need a bunch of different patterns for these guys, so I created some of my own. Looking forward to exploring that more.
I created this character last week purely as a guilty pleasure - I just wanted to draw something fun without worrying about originality or her place in a universe. I ended up having a ton of fun with it, so dont be surprised if a whole new project springs up around her. I have a male counterpart for her planned next. (Look ma, I designed a gun!)
Polishing up some work for the ol portfolio. This one I did with the intention of modeling it in zBrush. Something I'll finish someday, when I've got free time and stuff. :P
Been doing a lot of sketching lately that hasn't yet made it to postable form. I've also had a few commissions, though. This one was for Joel Green, of Blake Drysdale, the main character in an excellent series of novels that he's written that are dear to my heart.

Going back to my roots a bit lately. Recharging and reevaluating.

Looks a little too police-y right now.. may change up the colours for a darker look.
In a way, sort of my tribute to gamers in love.
Sketchesssss

I love maps.
In other news, did a quick sketch tonight for a painting that (sort of) came to me in a dream..
Ahh, the new year. A chance for every artist to see how many days in a row they can draw for.

Study from excellent stock by mjranum stock.
Okay, the painting didn't get finished tonight because ailments.
But Page 5!
The Riak map has sorely been in need of a compass for a while now.
Clouds, how do they work?
Studies for the day from various googly reference.
Took a break from painting buildings to do a piece of this lady, name pending.. an ACTUAL DIFFERENT CHARACTER from Riak.
Or something.
