Sketch Corner 7

Sorry would be the word?
I know I'm a little late, just one or two days, but I just had this
lazy weekend when doing school stuff wasn't on my plans, just
sitting around, chilling, playing videogames, mostly playing, well... I think I just did that =D

BUT!, lucky me, I dont have to work on mondays, so I have this little freetime where
I can do my things, and here you are, some of my recent pages, just for you xD

Enjoy people!! =)

Although this one is not full as I like, I was pretty inspired when I did all
the sketches you see on this page.



 Can't say the same when I did this one xD



 The one in the bottom is an Idea 
for an Illustration we gotta make.


Finally but not less importat, wanted to test some expressions,
I'm proud of this one =D


Ok, here you had it, the weekly dose of sketches.

Watercolor and Graphite WIP of my dear sleeping Cat (Kenshu)

Hey Guys! 
Here is another WIP just for your eyes, made on watercolor 
and then the final touches with a 4B pencil =D

Enjoy!!


Well, first of all, I took as a refference a sketch I made before looking at my cat
that was sleeping on his little bed 
I made it with an 8B graphite Bar


After doing a tracing of the drawing on a Basik DinA4 plus paper, I began painting, 
placing the colors and controling the light, shadows and the volumes...

 At this point I had all the watercolor work almost done, but I wasn't 
aware that to continue I was going to use a Graphite Pencil, I was sure 
it needed something else to be entirely finished.


The next day it was completly clear that it needed something darker, just to give a more 
realisting touch to the scene, the solution, as I said, was a 4B Graphite Pencil, mainly on the cat, had some problems on the back leg and the tail, but they were eventually fixed =)

Here is the final well scanned result...




Well, this is all the WIP, hope u liked it

Next time I'll bring you a Gouache WIP, It doesn't have as many photos to explain but I'll
manage to tell you every detail so you know well the behind the scenes...

See you people =D

Watercolor WIP of a Post-Apocalyptic Illustration

HI!

I decided to bring you this "work in progress" of a Watercolor I made last year, I have other two WIP's that i'll be posting for the next week, in each one (including this) I'll explain step by step, helping  with some pics, the process I went through =)

Hope u like it!


For this illustration I was thinking on a Post-Apocalyptic scene, so, I took as a refference the game I AM ALIVE, a short game set on this ambience I wanted to create. Saw some concept art and also played the Demo for PS3.

So, after I got all the refferences needed I did this sketch:

Some collapsed buildings and this character risking his life 
in the middle of the composition...


So, I started painting, first layer to know colors and position of 
every object and get rid off all those white spaces...


 At the same time I started to try to control the perspective 
and the change of planes...


 In here I already had all the objects with its respective color 
so I coul start focusing just on the change of planes and the little details, 
like reflections and some pipes and cables that are hanging...



  To bring some of the building to the foregound I added some shadows and darker colors
 was pretty difficult cuz it's a backlighting scene and almost everything should be dark...



 Then sended to the background the brown 
building at the right by taking out some pigment and Finally I added a very 
watery ocher to the whole composition...

And this is the final Result =)


Everything made on a 23x16,5cm Fine grained watercolor paper of 370gr

If you have any question about the process, don't hesitate to asking =D

Hope u Liked it! 

Watercolor

This was the last illustration we had to do last year. Our Teacher
gave us this illustration from a kid book: 



The Idea was to change the composition, make it a little bit more dinamic, we
had to change the typography too, so it could add movement to the scene, and, of course,
add some color...

We also had the chance to 
edit a little bit the text so we could work better, but never loosing the sense of it.

The text reads:

There is a wind of freedom, hard to control in this beginning of the year. 
The kids are really excited and the girls do not stop chatting.

The wind has been blowing hard and pushes the four leaves that are firm on the trees. 
From the window, Bibi feels them hitting the crystals...



This was my result =)





Hope u enjoy it as i did making it!!

see you next time! =)
