Ok, so a little more stylised than the last one, but this is the latest painting in my Critical Role Portraits series (I’m calling it that now!) Today’s portrait is of Ashley Johnson as Pike Trickfoot, a Gnome Cleric. Below is the WIP gif to show most of the different stages from reference toContinue reading “[CRITICAL ROLE] THE GNOME CLERIC PORTRAIT”

[CRITICAL ROLE] THE HALF-ELF ROGUE PORTRAIT
Ok…. so I might have gone a little more realistic than I usually do here… but that’s fine. Maybe the next one might be a bit more stylised (I’m imagining Travis Willingham’s character Grog to be a bit more stylised, anyway). This here is Liam O’Brien’s character, Vax’ildan, the Rogue. I don’t think I couldContinue reading “[CRITICAL ROLE] THE HALF-ELF ROGUE PORTRAIT”
Commission – Simon
So an old friend of mine got in contact – this guy is a legend, someone I used to be in a punk band with when I was at college (Too Far Forward – we were amazing!). So he told me that he was moving into a place with his partner, and wanted me toContinue reading “Commission – Simon”
OZ AND KATE WEDDING ANIMATION – RIGGING!
Hey guys, So back in May I posted the OZ AND KATE WEDDING ANIMATION – MODELLING! blog, looking at the design principles used when creating the characters and artwork for my wedding. Today I have the follow-up post, showing off the Rig I had created for the characters, but the best way to do this was byContinue reading “OZ AND KATE WEDDING ANIMATION – RIGGING!”
[CRITICAL ROLE] THE AIR ASHARI DRUID PORTRAIT
So it’s taken me a couple of days to paint this Critical Role portrait of Keyleth, played by Marisha Ray. It’s quite polished, and a little too clean maybe, but I am happy with it non the less. Below is a quick development gif, showing the piece at different stages.
Some More Animations
Hey guys, thought it was high time I’d add a few more animations to the blog. These focus on body mechanics and video reference. Some are better than others, but I think they work well as tests. Marionette Game Animation Tests Below is a number of tests leading to the pieces above Rig: UltimateContinue reading “Some More Animations”
[Critical Role] THE GUNSLINGER PORTRAIT
Another portrait paint of a character from Critical Role, this time it’s Percival played by Taliesin Jaffe. I get the feeling I’m going to do a series of these, just trying to better my portrait painting skills.
[Critical Role] THE DM PORTRAIT
A quick painting today, just a practice in face painting…. Critical Role’s DM Matthew Mercer.
Vex’ahlia DP WIP
So I thought I would put up a couple of pictures to show the process I used to create the Vex’ahlia painting. Originally I was just looking to create an image using a dynamic pose. Rather than trying to imagine one (and possibly throw the entire painting out of whack), I searched until I foundContinue reading “Vex’ahlia DP WIP”
Vex’ahlia Digital Painting
Hey guys, so this week I have been spending quite some time practising some digital painting techniques. I have been watching a lot of Kienan Lafferty’s tutorials on youtube, and, well, this guy is amazing! So I have wanted to try out a bit of a dynamic pose, and I found a cool reference photoContinue reading “Vex’ahlia Digital Painting”
