my first 4 illustration for runicards new project animus, this one is a great learning

experience for me, really love working on this project. gave me a lot of opportunity

to test my skill and learn new stuff.

with this project i learned how to customize my default brush to get the stroke, blending...

 that i wanted. it also teaches me on how to work on my backgrounds.

also learned a process that helps me work faster . 

this took a lot of my time, but it's worth it

also got a lot of help from my friends CRITS

you can check his illustrations here :

never expected this one to be my favorite. this one took least of my time , i really wish
i had more time to put more details with this painting. but i still love it 

this one is also my favorite gave me the chance to work on my BG study clouds and painting
sea. also accidentally learn few stuff to improve my effects.

first illustration i did for runicards, trying out some stuff here obviously the background
doesn't have enough details.

THIS ONE! gave me a headache , i really don't like the output and this one took a lot of my time. fixing
the light source , her face , BG everything about this painting. honestly dont have the general idea on
how will this look when it's done unlike the other 3. but needed to submit this on time so called it done.

WIPS

early sketches i did for the champions, the anime style/look was requested by the client

final sketches for the champion, did a lot of changes so they wont look the same and to show
more personality.

first draft sketches for the champion

first Photoshop Illustration

here are the first 2 illustration i did using photoshop i learn a lot from this

project. learned how paint and blend without relying on the brush that im using

james gurneys book about color and light helps me a lot to understand

some fundamentals of painting.

you can check his books at amazon

wish i had his imaginative realism but the color and light is already a big help, 

re reading this book every time i got the time.

this is the very first illustration i did with PS its a very cool experience learned a lot
did a lot of trials and errors this one also thought  me to paint on 1 layer fixing my errors
with paint overs instead of using an eraser. 

this is the advanced version of the card above, wish i had more time to do this one. i really used lot
of my energy fixing problems with the first one but still learned new stuff from this one, like painting without
any lineart to use as a guide for BG 

WIPS

my first WIP, i always starts my painting black and white it helps me focus more with values

comparison from PS to SAI, the right illustration was made from our collab with my fellow artist
ginrenz did the colors and draft.
the left illustration was made from PS based on our collab. 

digital painting SAI

these are the first few attempts of me on digital painting, also my last illustrations

using paint tool SAI , i really like the cleanliness of paint tool sai's brushes

it is user friendly and i like the way it blends. but i really wanted to get out

of my comfort zone

illustration i did for a card game. it's a test unfortunately the game was cancelled.

another art test for a card game from VNG this project teaches me a lot specially on how
to deal with mistakes on digital painting .

                                 

decided to fix my art blog, so for starters here are some of the commissions 

i did from deviantart
