CGAN June 2017 - Navigator - WIPs

Yay, I was hoping someone would do a Dune type of weird alien creature and Banj steps up and delivers. Love it so far.

I like that hair, Dragon. It looks really soft especially towards the ends. I can never get a 3D mesh to do that.

And Atto, yours even reminds of a 3D pic now. I think that colour scheme is making me think of Zbrush matcaps.

Done a bit more of mine...



Yes, the wheel currently is horrible. I think I'm gonna have to make a detour into Photoshop to use a perspective transform rather than sketching it freehand. I think I want the pic on the wall to be an olde version of a display showing the airship with some warning lights stuck in it. And then I need to add more detail ... and more detail... etc.

wip 4

To much brightness????

Dragon: The light does look a little harsh at the moment but maybe that's exaggerated by the plain dark background. A bit of variation or detail there will make it easier to judge the right light level for the figure.

Yea, I know, but I was waiting for my replacement tablet to come in before I started the background

wip5 - still to light??

wip6

Yikes, only nine days to go??
I feel like time is slipping away this month and I'm at that awkward stage where my latest wip doesn't look that different from the last one.
Hopefully I'll finish in time...


Need to sort out the right side of the pic now but I'm not happy with the shape of the "window" either and seeing as it's positioned behind lots of stuff this is one of those times when I regret being a "one layer" painter. I'll see what I can do in the time.

Dragon: Your figure looks better with clothing. It tones down the amount of glare from the otherwise exposed flesh and is much easier on the eye.
