Heres a new one..

Some canyon planet.. and a few spaceships flying around it.

I've always wanted to make a really sunny painting some day. Found my Very old sketchbook on CA org and this sketch there. Kinda liked the composition in it. So I thought I might try painting it. Colorizing a BnW sketch was a PAIN! Ughh....

Wacom
About 3 days I think..
Some photo reference of canyons and rocks..

Haven't done any personal "big" paintings for a while now.. so here's one!

I accidentally found a great environment painter in Ustream, named "Dentyou". I got so inspired that I had to quickly sketch out my idea. It got approved by the original artist and now its finished.

It is the same city as mr. Dentyous's city, but a different part of the city.

Its always very fun/cool to imagine/see huge gigantic ships hovering or flying over your head.. don't you see them?

Last day of the environment painting course. (I thought this was a 2-week course - but it was just 8 day long!)
I painted some cliffs on my path to school.

Now back to work! Warpets is at finishing stages! Beta testing will start soon!

On last day of 1st week we did urban environment painting..
Heres a library right at our institute.

1st pic is the final, 2nd is a more vibrant, saturated version.. I think it looks good.. so I put it here as well.

I only managed to sketch the building and quickly paint rough shapes and lighting.. then I continued at home with a photo reference.

Some 3 - 3,5 hours all together I think..

Today we all had to paint water..

About 1,5h
Heureka, Tikkurila Finland.

This time I tried doing some mad made stuff...
The weather was pretty windy and cold.. and I sat in difficult position.. So I managed only to sketch this view. Then I took a photo of it and continued painting at home.

Some 3 hours i think..
Reference photo for colors and lighting...

PS, Originally the scene was much colder and a bit lighter.. I tried adding a warming filter and it looked even better.. so I put it here instead of the original color one.

2nd day..

Same stuff..
and same time i guess.. some 1,5h

Im on a environment painting course at school right now.

Heres what I did on the 1st day.
