Lion Knight

Not sure how this came to mind, i just felt the urge to paint a lion head, and the rest followed. I got a bit carried away with the details, i wanted him to look simpler but there he is, almost fully rendered.
Also i am quit proud of how he turned out, didn't imagine him that way.

Enjoy:



And some Details:

Frostbite


An illustration that came by accident. First just shading, suddenly a little path with ice, a fallen warrior, iced over for eternity maybe...
Fantasy, funny thing and always cool.
Anyways, a quick illustration for between jobs.

Enjoy:

Ghost Rider - Apocalypse



Tonight the Apocalypse took place somewhere in an imaginative City.
While searching for shapes to have something stirr my mind for painting, i suddenly got me a city sillhoutte. The skull was the obvious choice to hang in the air. But it seemed a bit lost, so i added the flames and some in the background, a bit smoke and violá, there was a Ghost Rider painting.
I left the jawbone away on purpose, just if somebody is wondering.

Pinky and Brain


Tonight something from the Cartoonworld of Warner Brothers.
Never really watched the show, but the characters popped into my mind today and i drew them. Hery they are in a different style as you might know them. Hope you like them, enjoy:






And here are some details:

Vader


This night comes an image from far far away. A little Sketch to end the day.
Done in Painter. I love that programm, you can mess around so much in it and don't get your hands or anything else dirty.
I had an image in mind of Vader standing in smoke, steam, fog or something like that with his lightsaber glowing and just this as a lightsource.
Well, i did it in 20 minutes, just a quicky for the night.

Battle Cat

Today back to Masters of the Univers. Did the Wallpaper in the back yesterday and thought, there could be a kind of bust in front of it. I sketched something, and went to bed. But i had the mask of Battle Cat in mind for a longer time, and today i did it. That's it, took about an hour... way too long for just a warm up, but style change and having to look at the reference... anyways, enjoy the Helmet of Battle Cat:




And a Detail, to show the wallpaper texture in the back:

Peter Cushing - The Van Helsing Legacy

Yeah, he was a great actor.
When i started this image, i didn't know it was leading me to this, first i did the wallpaper, experimented a little, then i thought, i could hang a frame in front of it. And what do i put in there? A painting, no... draw something? So i came to the conclusion that only one guy would fit there tonight. And that was Peter Cushing.
Here he is in 2 Versions and some steps.

Enjoy

Black Cauldron - Taran und der Zauberkessel

The Black Cauldron from the movie from Disney.
In germany the title is: Taran und der Zauberkessel

I saw it in theatres when it came out and it was really scary. But it is one of my favourite movies from Disney, closely followed by "The Sword in the Stone", the story of Arthur and how he became king of England. But back to the illustration now, the Black Cauldron, namegiver for the movie it wasn't seen very much in the flic.
The Animation of the movie was great and overall the art and style were very different from other disney movies to that date.

Loved the movie, so here is a painting of the black Cauldron. Had to use a little image i found on the net for reference, though...
Took about 30 Minutes and is my warm up for today.

Enjoy:

Talked with somebody on the phone, and turtles came up and i got that feeling that this was the painting for tonight.

Took about 45 minutes.

Enjoy

One Two, Freddy comes for you

Yes, this little bathscene was fun, not only to paint, but to watch in the movie A Nightmare on Elm Street. The Original, the remake... wasn't really necessary.

I am not that happy with it, it's got some nice elements, but the outcome is not that good as i would have wished. But it was just a quick thing anyways.

Enjoy.




And a 3D version:

Venom - Miles Mayhem


Tonight there is a new helmet, a "MASK" to be more specific.
This thing belongs to Miles Mayhem, the evil Leader of the Terror group VENOM from the alltime extreme cool toyline M.A.S.K.

This took longer than the others, a bit more than an hour.

What's a Magneto?

My good night drawing for today.

I always liked the character Magneto. Not his killing, but his power and the way he was portrait, a villain but not really a villain. With this character Marvel showed that there is really "a certain point of view", and thats what came across and facinated me.
The first time i saw him was in a Tradepaperback of the X-MEN, on the cover was the Uncanny X-MEN Cover 115, and inside were 4 stories if i am not mistaken...
Anyways, that was the first time i read the X-MEN and the art was awesome. Up until now i love the work John Burne and the team did there. Sadly his newer works don't have that look anymore. Wonder why that is...

But i get carried away, enjoy:
The HELMET of MAGNETO

Manta Ray


Had a picture in my mind of this sea animal. I like those creatures familiar to the sharks. They are so beautiful and they "fly" through the oceans with such grace...
So i went with this image. I know, there are similar images and i didn't invent the wheel again, but i like the view and it felt right to paint.

Superman burns


Nah... not really, i just felt like doing something with his sign, and i let it go, this was the result.

Enjoy

Good morning Jason


My warm up for today. Pretty self explainatory i guess.
But when i woke it thought at once what image i could do, and that came to mind.

Hope you like it.

Wolverine

Yes, like the title says, it is Wolverine, pictured him different, was supposed to be just a warm up, but i then tried something out and this is the result.
I kinda like it.

Samstag, 5. Februar 2011

Todays warm up.
It just happened, didn't know what really would come out my doodling. It ended up as a mix-made-up Superhero. Or Villain? Anyways, i liked the light and shadowplay, added the transperacy just for fun, and i liked it, so it stayed.

New Year


Okay, the new year is in full throttle with all those war shit and terrorism going on, and flood and stuff...
So i try in my little spare time to have fun and create something that makes me and hopefully other people smile.

This is a little sketch of Conan in a Cartoony style for a little project that is going on. More on this in the coming months. Months? Plural? Yes,... sadly.
