Assignment was to show a character dead, leaving their body, going through some sort of portal, going to heaven/hell, and ending with the character confronting god/the devil, all told over the course of 2 pages of sequential art.
I was really in the mood to just paint a portrait for fun so I chose Claudio Sanchez from Coheed and Cambria.
This piece took me 1 hour and I'm really surprised at how fast it went. I'm really happy with the results so I think I'm going to try and do more quick pieces like this for practice.
Here's a piece I just finished up. This was done as a mock job for Magic: the Gathering. I looked at the new goblin designs seen in the Scars of Mirrodin set and did my own thing with them.
* The illustration faculty asked me to do an illustration for the poster advertising the SU bus trip to NYC to see the Children's Book Show at the Society of Illustrators. I was told I could do whatever I wanted as long as it wasn't obscene so I really took advantage of it. The posters are now hanging up throughout the art building. Here's a high quality version of the image: *Poster layout by Lori Klopp
Quick-sketch turned quick-portrait. I just really wanted to try my hand at a goblin, I'm currently working on an illustration featuring this wily guys.
I finished up this piece recently. It started out as a black & white drawing done as a tattoo design for someone, but I liked the drawing so much that I decided to go ahead and paint it up. I'm really happy with how this turned out and I really had fun painting all the details in the face. Blue Shift update: new pages are in progress so I should be able to post links to them soon!
