  • Thank you! I finally cleaned that up. Meanwhile started 3 more ..I have a habit of taking too long to finish a piece, then I lose interest in it and just start something else. I found 8 from recently i started and abandoned, that are decent enough to not delete, but not finished. There’s also been a number of drawings I felt I “outgrew” - became better before I finished them, and it would be easier to start from scratch than fix them. Anyone else thinking that?
  • Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 6 Polypaint and base Hi, it’s time to share with you another part of the process to create this fanart piece. Polypaint As this is my first collectible fanart I didn’t have previous experience with polypaint so I tried my best and played a bit with it.I wanted to give a ghostly and eerie look to Lady Death, she is beautiful and deadly, but at the end of the day she is a woman that died and was reborn at hell as an avenging spirit, that’s why I gave her skin tone a bluish very cold tone.As you will see I gave myself some creative freedom to deviate from the traditional color scheme that this characater has in comics and illustrations.To add a bit of sensuality by painting some freckles on the face and the chest. The dark nature of this character was the perfect excuse to gave her a kind of goth make up, very dark shadows around the eyes, blue lips and fingernails. I know that the original character includes sexy red lips but I wanted this girl to have a sexy but at the same time creepy look, that’s why we can see some thin veins emanating from her eyes. The biggest chromatic change I did for this character is at the hair. Lady Death has a characteristic white weavy hair but in my fanart I decided to gave her a very saturated blue color.The reason behind this wasn’t only an aesthetic choice. I want that the face area strongly pulls the attention of the viewer so this area needed a stronger contrast. Another reason is that I want her to have a more modern look, as I mentioned before, I’m strongly attracted to women with goth/punk look. I gave myself half an hour or more to analyse the work of experienced sculptors that create collectibles and I discovered that the use of darker values on the skin is often applied to create a greater sense of volume and three-dimensionality. I found that areas with heavy ambient occlusion are the perfect places to paint with darker colors in order to increase the separation between different forms. Even though she has a bluish skin tone, I used a bit of warmer hues in areas that, in real life, tend to go towards red and pink, this is very obvious in the nose, cheeks, and knuckles. Thinking with a logical mind it’s completely absurd to have warmer tones on the body of a zombie like creature but I didn’t want to limit myself by using only blue tones, it looks boring and artificial. In real life these colors are created by blood vessels in areas where the skin is very thin. ** Scythe **for her weapon I applied a cool gray with some warmer variations, this color scheme is influenced by the work of H.R giger. Base I’d like to talk about the design for the base which, to be honest, I forgot to develop along with the character.My main idea with the base is to show that Lady Death inhabits a very sterile and arid land, at the end of the day she is at hell.You can see a that she walks over dirt and rocks, a sign that she’s surrounded by death and loneliness. As part of the landscape we can see some bones and skulls to reinforce the idea of lack of living creatures, yet we can see three hands that try to reach her legs.This hands represent that all creatures are subordinated to her power and seek an evil blessing with a simple touch of the princess of the damned.1- The hand with skin burns represents the souls of those who are newcomers to hell, tortured souls that suffer for the sins comitted on earth.2- The hand with greenish rotten skin and pustules is the reminder of the decay that has infected the souls of those who have been trapped and have forgotten their humanity3- Last but not least, the hand of a demon shows that even dark creatures and entities bow before her presence. The cherry on the top, at least in my vision, are the simese twins that emerge from the ground, this malevolent creatures remind us that in hell there’s only perversion and any trace of innocence is lost. Thanks for reading till this pointI’m really happy to be very close to finish this creative journey, last but not least it’s mandatory to talk about splitting the sculpture in several pieces to be printed, this will be my last entry before showing the final rendered images. See yaMay Zbrush be with you

Hi Cubebrushers and Cubebrushettes! I'm Cedric and I used to hang out on the previous Cubebrush forums. I'm a Canadian who I likes to draw, paint and play music.

I wanted to kick things off by showing some of my favorite pieces that I've made, but I apparently can only put a single image in each post... so screw that I guess XD

Instead here's one of three acrylic paintings I've made that will be featured in a Halloween themed group exhibition.

Here's the second one, with a short story to put you in the mood.

Lam Ud Lieo
Up in the darkness, she was there softly singing what sounded like the words of a spell. She had told me earlier that tonight was the night where the universe was going to reveal all it's secret to us. However, as she was starting to sing louder and the atmosphere was starting to get more suffocating, I felt that it wasn't such a great idea. Suddenly, the singing stopped. I started to feel dizzy and I passed out.

When I woke up, she was gazing at me with a subtle smirk on her face. Her hair started to raise up as she told to behold the universe in all its dark glory. And as she said that, I looked with horror as her forehead opened to reveal the Eye Of Evil.

And third and last one (which will be followed by a process GIF), with again a little text to put you in the mood.

Ritual
Rising voices surrounds me as she approaches
Intimidated by her, I fall on my knees
Tenderly holding the ritual blade, she marches towards me.
Undressed chanting minions are lit into blazes
As the heat rises with their screams, she moves closer
Longingly piercing my heart as the fire welds us forever.

And as I said, here's a GIF of the process of the last painting.

Ohhh! I love how evil these look! I especially love the first one. The mouth looks so horrific but I cant stop looking at it!

@cherrylimeade Thank you very much for your sweet comment! I'm really glad you like her :smile:

So here's a little something I'm working on. It's the background for a short animation that I'm making. I did it a bit differently than what I usually do. I painted the foreground, midground and background separately with acrylics on watercolor paper. I then assembled each part in Photoshop and added some additionnal effects, I might start using this technique more often because I do like the end result.

Wow! Traditional paintings. I really wish I had learned this at college, and not just to draw. The first one was well featured. I like your dark vibe

Hahahahaha! That animation was funny as hell. I remember you from the old forum, even though I stopped posting (Zearthus/Hermidraws) , but really nice.

Just one thing I felt is, the first one looks really flat for the bottom part. Overall solid stuff. Hopefully you will keep us updated on your progression.

@miguel_nogueira2k Thank you very much for your comment! I do start to see a bit of a dark vibe in my work lately. As for the traditional work, I've found that these day my process is fairly similar to the way I'd do a digital piece. So I feel that if you can do digital work, traditional shouldn't be too much of a problem if you can find the right medium. Thanks again!

@brianhermelijn Thanks! I'm glad you liked the animation. And you're probably right about the flatness of the bottom of the first piece. I wanted to keep most of the focus on the upper part, so I didn't work as much on the bottom. It might be a bit distracting. Cheers!

So I started to work on a storyboard for a possible new animation. We'll see how it goes!

That storyboard looks really good :smile:
Your paintings give me that old school fantasy dungeons and dragons kinda vibe, and i like that a lot
