New camera = photo replacements

Just thought I would say that I have replaced some of the photos in my earlier posts now that I have a new camera and am able to take decent ones now. go back and have a look if you like. there are some much better images attached. :)

WIP Update on Warhammer

Here are some pics of some of my painting works in progress, you may notice that the photos are much better. I went out and bought myself a new camera last night. a Panasonic Lumix. So I will be able to take some good ones from now on. :)

Im really happy with the way these are progressing. Its been a long time since I did any serious painting and I am slowly picking up the skills again. Along with doing a lot of youtube research and watching a lot of tutorials and such online. :) Tell me what you think.

Weekly Drawing #5

Here is a drawing that I started this week while away on course. Ive bought myself a little pocket sketch book so ill be carrying it around with me all the time and drawing whenever the mood strikes

When I was younger I used to do a lot of punk style drawings, with cyborg attachments on faces and robots and what not. Mostly because I found it easier than actually drawing the facial features. If they were covered by some robotic feature then I could draw them how I wanted.

Weekly Drawing #4 - its the thought that counts

I havent had a chance to do any drawing this week. Ive been on night shift and have been rather busy, so I thought I would apologise for not posting anything this week. I am away from home next week as well so my next drawing post will be in 2 weeks.

Thanks for being patient with me.

Weekly Drawing #3

I have been flatout this week and have not been able to finish the drawing that I was working on, but thought I would post an in progress shot.

This is a drawing I was asked to do for a friend of mine of a dragon protecting 3 roses. Its her and her 3 kids. I am not really sure about it so far. but will keep going and see how it turns out.

Let me know what you think. Ill post the completed work later down the track. It seems that I very rarely get these works finished. :) My sketchbooks are all full of Works in Progress. But one day ill get them done.

Airbrushing....

I have just been watching a collection of Youtube videos on painting Warhammer miniatures from the user "buypainted". Looking at some of his work... which is absolutely amazing, I have decided that its time to buy an airbrush.

I have wanted to get one for soooo long. Just havent had the time or the $$ to invest in getting one and learning how to use it. Now that I am single and trying to advance my creative side, I think its time that I stop thinking about getting one and just buy one. Now I have to do some research and work out which airbrush to buy.

If anyone has any insight into airbrushing and brands etc. I would love to hear from you.

Thanks

Weekly Drawing #2

I thought I would make up for the late posting last week by posting this weeks drawing a day early.

This is something that has had many redraws done over the past 5 or 6 years. It was initially something that I put together as a tattoo design for myself back when I first joined the Air Force, but never got around to getting it done. I lost the original many moons ago and have been trying to recreate it since.

To be completely honest. Its not finished. I am going to ink it this week and post the completed work as next weeks drawing. I didnt want to rush the inking as I dont want to have to recreate it again because I messed up the inking.

Tell me what you think...
