Soluxos' scribbles

Thanks a lot!

Soon I'll dig into Sid's colors as well, to practice for my next piece after this portrait below.
Yeah for sure, seeing as I want to become a concept artist, specialized in character design later I gotta practice a lot (:

Another sign of life. School & life are a real mess, I couldn't get myself to draw in a long time. I feel like I've lost my 'spark' somewhere halfway, so I'll be doing lots of comfort zone art again to regain that spark.

I have a weird thing with three-quarter profile portraits with windswept hair it seems

Awesome work. Now you've got me really inspired!

soluxos 2017-04-21 07:58:37 UTC #20

@luckyyy woohoo I'm glad to hear that, keep the art juices flowing

Small update of the elf lady: I reworked her skin to make her look less like a descendant of Shrek + I looked up some good lighting & hair refs, so that'll be the main thing I'll be tackling these days + the background. I never, ever paint backgrounds or environments so this should be an interesting challenge.

Looking great! You nailed that unique redhead skin tone 👍 I'm excited to see how you do the hair and background.

that portrait is looking so nice

soluxos 2017-05-12 06:24:54 UTC #23

@jenniferbrincho @FITZFACTOR Thanks for the kind words guys (: I'm still slowly chipping away at it hehe

Between school and all kinds of things I managed to finish this Xayah fan art I started a few days ago.

Last figure studies:

I'll continue working on the elf portrait and will probably post also some art from a game project that I'm working on at school

Casual portrait study, trying to learn how to paint hair w/o making it look like noodles or dreadlocks

Hey, this looks really cool!!

soluxos 2017-06-23 22:16:59 UTC #26

@friedpotatocake thanks a lot c:

Small update before I'll post a lot of work I did for my game projects at school ~

Hair + lighting study. The struggle of painting hair is real, trying to learn how to paint it properly and orderly.

soluxos 2017-06-26 19:09:47 UTC #27

Now for some real stuff. I've been working on school on game projects. Here's the concept art I made. The game was inspired by the retro game Ghosts ' Goblins & Dark Souls, set in a candyland universe.
I got to concept particle effects and enemy designs.

soluxos 2017-07-01 13:36:13 UTC #28

Some figure/ gesture drawing sessions, done from online references.

cedricgo 2017-07-01 23:53:26 UTC #29

Nice gestures! I especially like the second page. The figures look really lively.

soluxos 2017-07-03 20:31:22 UTC #30

@cedricgo thank you! That was something I was aiming for, glad that came partly to fruition (:

Small portrait update. Am forever chipping away on this one. Not sure what I am doing with the background, we'll see where this goes xD

soluxos 2017-07-05 21:26:32 UTC #31

Self portrait study. I will paint these once in a while to see where my art skills are at. Was fun to paint though (:

cedricgo 2017-07-07 01:14:45 UTC #32

Nice job on both portraits! Well... actually I don't know how close your self portrait looks like you, but it looks good anyway. And redhead elf is coming along nicely. I like the lighting you've chose.

soluxos 2017-07-11 21:05:05 UTC #33

@cedricgo Thank you c: Well, here is the comparison:

Some figure drawing + more studies

sanguine 2017-07-11 22:18:36 UTC #34

Nice figure drawings! The lines are really nice and the figures have a lot of movement. Nice work!

cedricgo 2017-07-12 00:46:28 UTC #35

Well then, that's definitely a succesful selfportrait!

And good job on those studies and figure drawings. As @Sanguine mentionned, they have nice lively lines!

soluxos 2017-07-15 11:05:04 UTC #36

@sanguine @cedricgo aah thanks again guys! :3

Goofing a bit around artwise: I turned myself into a night elf for funsies + painting practice, playing around with rendering and color palettes.

Process:

cedricgo 2017-07-16 17:46:03 UTC #37

That's so awesome! XD
