Stuff o' the day so far

Two studies from Zhaoming Wu & just some thumbs playing around with color, no real goals in mind for them other than take a few colors and make them work.

Slightly older studies that I never put on here, Ruan Jia (dude spends forever on one painting, I gave myself an hour max) & an unfinished Ruo Li study.  Posting everything just for posterity's sake.

Week 3

Eh.  These are a little more hit and miss.  The assignment this was to take a comp and do 5 different color & light schemes.

Week 2 Homework (Can I sleep now?)

Dos

Edit (now that I'm conscious): This is painted w/ using a grayscale 3D render from How to Train Your Dragon.  The assignment was to create a believable sense of color and light, and use both a cool & warm light source.

Homewerk Studies

Week Uno.

I should probably update..

Self-portrait I need to go back and finish, but class kicked in so busy with homework.  Will upload homework another time, I have to send it in as one image, so it'll be easy to just upload here afterward.

Color Sketches

Riffing on a theme of "Frozen Pass".  Mostly experimenting with what colors I can use for snow and working towards a final.  There's a few more to do on this one, but wanted to put 'em up before Christmas stuff got me busy.

Still going..

Thumbing for something to take to final.  Did a quick self portrait for like an hour.  (with monitor lighting obviously) to break up some of the monotony that thumbing can sometimes bring.  Barely addressed the hair since I didn't want to render my greasy need-to-shower hair, lol. Pushed the bottom one a little bit but it wasn't working for me.

And some quick stuff from life.  Only could spend like 30 minutes per plein air before my hands started screaming at me from the cold, so they're rather quick.
