Blizzard is coming

A few studies taken from photos of dinosaur bones and other creatures. I took photos when I was at the paleontology museum, I was so fascinated by all these ancient fossils that I forgot to take pictures of the nameplates.
Below is a comparison of chicken, emu, and dinosaur foot bones. Not much has changed, don't you think?

I don't often have to draw any deer, so making some rough sketches from photos was a good idea.

New Year, New Challenge!
How about learning how to draw people? Okay, I'm in.

A few studies, some done by photo, some not. I have finished all my work and so am happy to spend the end of the year improving my skills.

A couple of portraits I did last month, but I was so busy with another task that I never found time to post, I'm very shamed about that.


inspired by a 17th century "king armor" with patinated metal

I declare this week - a week of horse portraits! :)

Dark and scary pictures are not at the peak of popularity now, so it is unlikely that I will have much feedback on this series. But here's a little piece of the process over one.

Whoa, now I'm working on a really big project, although it's just a personal one, but I haven't done anything that big in a long time. So this is a real challenge for me. For now, I don't want anything to affect me and reduce my motivation, so I won't upload pictures until all the work is done. Now I'm in the middle, a little behind, but all work must be completed early next month.
These are two small test images, so you can imagine what awaits you very soon.

I love this warm, peaceful autumn day. The way it turns out makes me happy.

Several sketches were made last month.
The first two pictures show our favorite oak under which we often stopped to relax and drink tea.

I was curious how my character would look in a realistic style. So I did a quick study, changing the species of cat. My character is a lynx.

reference:

I do not know what for, but these sketches in high resolution here.




Little tips on the sketch with the ships.
I had an old sketch, and drew it a little bit, then I switched to the mixer brush and started painting over it.
Below you can see the settings for the mixer brush.
(to capture the colors press Alt + L-click).

For me it was a discovery that inside the inflorescence between individual flowers there is its own logic and dynamics of location. It's so amazing.

The summer was not very active, however, the last illustration hit me so hard on my belief in myself that I decided to take a short break to recover and try something new.
This i tried to simulate oil paint strokes with a mixer brush on photoshop. I'm not very happy with how it turned out, but I liked the technique itself.

Recently I researched a new technique of drawing backgrounds, as well as tried to combine the scenic landscape and the characters stylized under the anime. It was a lot of fun.
Maybe I should make some more of those pieces. What do you think about it?

A few sketches that I made as an improvement in my skills.
