Project Puppet

This was done around two years ago but I never posted it up since I was not very happy with the final outcome of the paintings but looking back i actually learnt so much from it. I definitely will come back to it one day. The story for this project is related to the mad king fortress.

A portrait study to cool off after a long day..
I found the reference photo from google.

Recently I have been inspired by the elegant value of Morgan Weistling, so I was trying to learn more about simplifying the subject.

Polishing

Trying to focus more on my edges and texture.. its always a struggle to juggle polishing without over detailing it..

Mad King's Fortress

Decided to do the train one in the end! Experimenting with some new ways of rendering to try to push the focal point.. another thing I have to improve on!

The Thief - Color Comps

For this week I wanted to step out of my comfort zone so I tried to experiment with color and see how much I can push out of it.
