Render Test II

I think I like this one better.

And it's not the intention, but he looks so friendly here that I had to make a small introduction, haha! :D The "Johnny" name fits him, doesn't it?

OK, OK, I got it. Back to work!

3D Stuff



A render test from a 3D sculpture that is not even finished yet...
(help-help-help-help-help)

"I feel it, it's coming"



I'm in a rainy mood today... and it's not even raining. :\ Sort of a self-portrait -- though I don't look like this girl.
Spent 1h40min on this (I recorded myself while painting, may post the video here sometime soon). Did it first in black & white and then I added the colors. :)

EDIT: Video can be watched here.

"Concept"

Pseudo-concept of a girl I'll try to model in 3D. HELP! :(
40 minutes (or something) of doodle, I guess.

On the train



Today's daily sketch, from memory -- I've been currently trying so hard to get myself free from using (too much) references... ARGH!
Anyway, took me about 1 hour on Photoshop CS3. Inspired by the awesome R. Woodward... again! :P

I thought of you...

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you'd gone
and let the world spin madly on

"World Spins Madly On" by The Weepies

Quick doodles from memory I did this afternoon on Photoshop. Wanted to do something cleaner, more stylized and such.

Inspired by the awesome Ryan Woodward.

Photoshop Demo



This is a quick painting live demonstration I did on my uni yesterday, with Photoshop CS4. I really had a great time! Thanks a lot to Rosangella Leote for the opportunity and to everyone for the interest! :)

And for a side-note: unintentionally, the girl totally looks like my sister -- even the haircut is the same, haha! <3

40 minutes (or something like that).



Done today during lunch break in uni, while talking with some friends of mine. I've tried to depict my dear friend Letícia -- she's floating, yeah (er, not actually. Honestly, I was just too lazy to draw the floor...)! :D

Something like 10 minutes in Photoshop CS4.

I Don't Feel Like Painting



I have tons of paintings in my HD I know I'll never finish -- mostly because, after having to stop to work on them because of some professional stuff, I don't like them enough anymore when I come back to paint. Heh.
Oh, and I have a video I recorded while painting the first piece -- I might upload it to Vimeo sometime.

More Kimonos

4 hours on Photoshop so far. I want to finish this one so bad.

Inspired by the previous one -- which I decided I didn't liked it enough to go ahead with it.

Red

Something that popped up while doodling around today, about 20 minutes of sketch. I'm planning to finish this one -- and feeling that this kimono will give me a lot of problems...

3D Skull

A BPR render test on ZBrush after doing the sculpting with the same software. Not so happy with the result, though -- wish I could work a little more on this...
Exercise done for Fontaine Digital course (at Melies), with the awesome Caio César as my teacher -- he's a monster!! Hope I'll get good as him one day!

Glub Glub Glub

I've been currently working on a workshop for a magazine and this (sketchy) image supposed to be the result of it, but I changed my mind midway and decided to do something closer to my style -- more polished and so on. The painting now is way different, but I still kinda like this one, so I'm posting it here anyway. :)

Tree Concept

About 1 hour of work on Photoshop CS3.

Kot'anaa

Nothing really special or sophisticated. I just wanted to update the blog with something new. 20 minutes of painting on Photoshop, I guess...? Hm, I'm not sure. Inspired by Kodama, a character from Hayao Miyazaki's "Mononoke Hime" movie.

EDIT: I decided to work a little more on the picture ‒ you can see the final result on my deviantART. Hope you'll like it!

São Paulo

A quick doodle I did yesterday in uni ‒ well, to be more exact, in its stairwell, placed outside the building. It's truly a lovely (and frighteningly high as hell) place, with an amazing vista of São Paulo city.

The sketch was done in A3 paper with 6B pencil. I know there're a LOT of mistakes but I couldn't help but scan the image and mess with the colors in Photoshop.

I hope you like it, though!

Promise is debt

    

40 minutes on Photoshop CS3.

Starting next week I'll try to update the blog with quick sketches every day. Let's see how it goes! Meanwhile, I'm waiting to get my desk microphone ‒ soon you'll know why, ha! :D

Gaudy Red

Watched "Memoirs of a Geisha" today and got inspired. :) I just love this film.
30 minutes on Photoshop CS3.

A Lady

A doodle from memory (cof cof). About 1 or 2 hours of work on Photoshop CS3.
