Here is my version of the Sorceress from Masters of the Universe. I just posted this over on the Avalanche blog as well. It is based on the latest challenge of doing our own take on a character from the He-Man Universe.
Well we are approaching the end of a rather nasty crunch on the latest game we have been working on. I have not had much time for anything other than work. I hope to be posting a bit more frequently now that things are beginning to ease up.
I have recently been in somewhat of an artistic rut, so I have been focusing on some non artistic stuff and not done much with my blog. I do however have a couple new things that im posting despite them not being finished. I bought a new Wacom tablet hopeing to give myself a boost and get back into painting, and it does seemed to have helped. I get in these ruts now and then and just have to pretty much wait it out. I usually just sketch to keep things rolling and eventually It passes. Its like artistic constipation. And sketching is a high fiber cereal. And non artistic stuff is like an herbal laxative that my Aunt recommended but really isnt working that well. And im just waiting for that "cork to pop" to find out that the sketching really was helping in the background and all of this creativity is going to spill out and make a big mess. But a good mess.....figuratively speaking.
Here are a couple pics of my Halloween mask as its being sculpted. Not the greatest pics but I will post more as progress continues. You may notice that this sculpture is similar to another mask I was sculpting last year. That sculpture was destroyed by my not monitoring its moisture content. WED clay is a Water based clay that will eventually dry out if not regularly wet down.
Here is another Halloween themed sketch. Im hoping to get more of my Costume stuff posted soon. I just need to be better at taking some photos of the progress. But expect to see some of the sculpture and mask making here soon. Later
Getting excited about Halloween. Here is the latest painting. You can expect to see more stuff in the horror vein as Halloween gets closer. Thanks for looking
This is based on a challenge from the Avalanche blog. We have a new subject every couple of weeks that we paint . This one was "homeless robots". If you have not seen the Avalanche blog.....I highly recommend you check it out. I will put a link to it here soon.
