Peter (not Parker :() Art School Journey

[Frygidal]

I am really glad I am getting a grasp at this shape-language thing, thank you And you are right, it has its own propulsion, it looks like this right now:

So at the bottom and at the back of the handle there are jets, they can be used as more power for piercing or move around to give more slice power, it is 1 handed sword, but thanks to jets in these places it can generate a slicing power like with 2 hands (leverage with 2 forces in different directions), using a katana for example. There is of course a lot of intertia in the water but it also affects the water creatures so I guess we can call it fine

[Frygidal]

I think I have a pretty decent understanding of human anatomy so I have started to study stylised anatomy now, some anatomical breakup from K/DA cover. I left all construction lines, maybe it will be helpful to someone I hope!

[Frygidal]

Grinding some concept art skills by designing back of the mech in 3/4 view

[Frygidal]

Warming up with some animal sketches before designing my own for Saturday!

[WeirdOwl]

Nice warm-up. Have you decided what abomination you'll do for Saturday?

[Frygidal]

Let's hope it won't be abomination because it is going to be more animal than creature I want to make big ground bird which is herbivorus but is very big and strong so he doesn't have any enemies, kinda like bird-rhino

[Frygidal]

I am mostly done with concepting but won't put it there till Saturday, I am teasing with the skeleton and waiting till the stream if you have expected or not the final design! (I love how skeleton tells so much about the creature)

[Frygidal]

I am learning to not focus on details when sketching so I did some eagle drawings with 0 erasing/undo like Feng Zhu advices, this is really quite a challenge!

[Frygidal]

More sketching grinding, it was like 4-5 hours of drawing so a good session today!

[Frygidal]

Some tree roots sketches and now going for research dark disney character

[Frygidal]

I have done my research and this is a sketch of the idea I have come up, adult Tinkerbell guarding the remains of her beloved

[NarumiSenpai]

I really love this Idea! It looks great

[Frygidal]

Thank you very much! In the beginning I wanted make a creepy version of Olaf but I couldn't find a story for it so I needed to think something better, I am really glad you like it!

[Frygidal]

I have cleaned some lines and tried some light setups, I think I will go with something like this:

But I think I need make her to look more gothy

[Frygidal]

It goes pretty slow because I feel more like 'designer' than a painter, but I hope it is going into right direction

[cedricgo]

I think it definitely is going in the right direction! Keep it up!

[Frygidal]

Thank you @cedricgo , I will definitely push it as far as I can!

Today I have made some beetles sketches, I think I am slowly getting this line quality stuff!

[Frygidal]

How are your contest entries going guys? I didn't have time for a few days to draw at all so I will never finish background for mine in time but I think it looks okay now!

[Frygidal]

Final version, pretty happy how it came out!

[WeirdOwl]

This came out super nice Peter! No wonder you came up in Marc's favorites. Good job man, you nailed this challenge. Hope you participate in some upcoming ones too.
