B&B Environments updates

B&B Environments round 1

An improved round two done in class working off of one of the first ones

Belle's Father

Asylum owner

Enchantress

Beast

Character Lineup

For the rest of the semester in Advanced Character design we were assigned (2 or 3 weeks ago) to do a story of our choosing.  We could write our own or use an existing story that we like.  I am using a combination of the original Beauty and the Beast story and the Disney version to come up with a darker story starting with the Beast's death.

I will be posting a synopsis once I have a coherently written version!

Here is the first batch of characters after a few weeks of sketching and critiquing

Pan's Labyrinth Environment WIP: Round Two

Two different view of the Labyrinth (overhead and entrance)

Really large version of brain coral, which has a natural maze pattern to it. Super cool.

Pan's Labyrinth Environment WIP

Started working on a real version of the previously posted thumbnails

Will have a finished (well presentable) piece up by the end of the week and thumbnails for another environment!

Faye

This is Faye.

Those are some expression studies

Assignment for "getting to know a character"

I plan on fixing up the turn around a bit and hopefully finding time to add some color to her

Also want to keep exploring her face when I have free time (what is that?) so as to keep working on character consistency

Environment Master Copy- James Aaron Finch

Beautiful Princess and the Frog concept art by James Aaron Finch

 Hilarious "blind" copy done after studying the image for about 10 seconds and then not being allowed to reference it

Copy while actually getting to reference the image (well as far as I got in an hour. Cursed foliage)

Doing things like this definitely helps the learning process I think (this was an in class assignment so I would hope it was a good learning process! hah.)

Pan's Labyrinth Mercedes

Final design(s) for Mercedes in our Underwater Pan's Labyrinth

Character Costuming thumbnails

Some character thumbnails trying to focus on costuming/outfits

Buried Alive WIP

I realized I have been posting a lot of concept art/character design work lately and I wanted to put up a work in progress of an illustration I am also working on

It is for a reader's digest story about someone being buried alive

It's been a few months since I've full on digitally painted something so this should be interesting!

Pan's Labyrinth Silhouettes: Round 2

Silhouettes for my redesign of Mercedes to go along with the fairy (seahorse/mermaids) I posted earlier

RPG Space Mechanic Design WIP

Designing a space mechanic for an rpg for my advanced character design class

Final version to be posted next week!

Down in New Orleans

Throwing some fan art your way!

Find myself constantly drawing fan art when I'm lacking in motivation but I never post it here so... here we are

Tiana and Charlotte belong to Disney of course (as well as the Princess and the Frog logo)

Illusionism Final pieces

Illusionism Final

Part of my illusionism final, there is a character compliment to this and then a full illustration using them both
This is mostly done, the others are in the stages of sketch/drawing and half completed (relatively speaking) so i shall post them next week

Dragon-WIP

I am newly dubbing this a work in progress because I really do want to go back into it. unfortunately the file is still... well corrupted so it looks like I'll have to paint back into this one without my layers. But I really want to finish it to the extent that I really wanted it done

Shere Khan

final version of Shere Khan for my concept art class

Jungle Book

Sketches for Shere Khan's design for my concept art class

Sea

Quick-ish digital painting of a seascape
Trying to get some more environment practice whenever I can

So many sketches

Sketches/Sketchbook pages for different classes for various assignments and purposes!

Environment Concept

For my concept art class we had to redesign one of our favorite stories
I chose to redesign the original written version of Beauty and the Beast
I changed the race of character into an elven race
Due to Belle's father losing his riches they are forced to move into the forest and live there.  Events that would follow remain true to the original story just in a different setting/for slightly different reasons (nothing major)

we had to redesign one character and one environment so here is the environment (I will post character stuff later, as well as the original concepts and sketches that go with this piece)
