Art competition

I've just been invited to take part in a competition, not sure if its real or not... http://www.artistshavengallery.com/events/

RockBand finished!

Well, I knew these would be fairly quick to do, but I didn't realise just how quick, as I've finished them! 


I may go over the green and purple ones again, to be completely sure I have the colours right - they all graduate a little from top to bottom. Otherwise, they're done, and I'll be posting them off tomorrow.


Here they are:




Mike:

 

Drums:

Guitar:  

Keyboard:

Bass:

 This has given me an idea for a child's Play painting - I think I'll do a shot of all five images, like this one, for the auction in December: 

I have a canvas that's just the right dimensions, and I'll have a think about the background colours.

Rock Band painting started

I've painted in the black on each icon, I'll do the colours tomorrow. 


These have been fun - fairly easy to do, except for keeping the black lines the right thickness, and making sure there were no gaps in the paint. 


I'll be tidying up the edges with ink later on today, or maybe tomorrow after I've painted the colours in.




Drums and Mike:

Keyboard and Bass:

Guitar: 

Rock Band started

Last night, I drew the outline for the RockBand images:

Mike and bass:

Guitar and keyboard:

Drums:

I expect I'll start painting them later on today.

Rock Band icons

These 5 pictures are what I'm painting next - the person these are for has asked for them to be painted onto 5 12" square canvases, instead of the normal size I do.

They should be fairly straightforward to do, as a) the icons are very simple, and b) the resolution of the images is great.

I love RockBand, got The Beatles kit for my birthday last year, and played the keyboard at Eurogamer in October (I played tears for Fears, Everybody wants to rule the world, such fun). I can't play the guitars, though, cos they're nothing like playing a real guitar, but I love drumming!

Okami River Heaven finished

I had almost finished this yesterday, but then had to sort out some car insurance that took over an hour to do, and ate into painting time. I was up very early this morning, so used the time to finish off the wolf.


here's the whole thing:

Here's the top half:

And here's the bottom half:

I loved painting this, okami is such a joy to paint! I'm not sure what I'm painting next to commission - I'm still waiting to hear what the next person wants, so I'll be painting something for myself next.

More okami done

I'm off work this week, on annual leave, so I've been able to crack on with this painting a bit. I think I'll have it finished tomorrow.

then a bit more done:

I'm leaving all the white until the last, as I don't want to get those bits dirty. I'll be doing the waterfalls next, in the morning.
