And so the journey into Bayou Arcana begins..!

I have earlier mentioned that I am involved in another graphic novel project, this time providing a short story for an anthology. Corey Brotherson is the one writing it and I'll do my best to make my painting match the win of his storytelling. :D

So expect some sketches and other things relating to Bayou Arcana to pop up on this blog from now on.

First up, it's time to start doodlin' characters.

Skal paaaage.



Once again I've been so busy I've had to put Skal aside. And I think it shows in some of the bottom painting. But oh well!

It's still one of my main enjoyments right now :D

Well, today's my deadline. I didn't think I'd be able to do the last 5 images in 5 days, but managing it so far. Just waiting for confirmation on the final picture so I can finish it up.

Here's a recap on the illustrations I've done for this company:

Skal page..!

Was two days late with the Skal update due to work taking priority. Always feels like a bit of a failure on my part when it happens, but I just haven't been able to get a big page buffer up yet. :(



Because of the lack of time, the colours are bit flatter than I would've liked.

RPG illustration: Underground.

Bahaha. Sorry for all the black and white RPG posting this week! It's because of the deadline this Friday that my main focus is to finish these images.

I shall explode into colour later on :P

Black and white is excellent for learning how to control lighting though.

RPG illustration: Stargazing in reverse.

I'm still trying to get my head around lighting on this image.


RPG illustration: Lighting rough.

Doing one of the four last images for the RPG company.

Here's an example of a very quick lighting-mood-thingey-rough to make it easier for me to map out the highlights and dark areas.
