Magi's Sketch Book

Sort of a Daily Art Thread thingy, I guess.

This is sort of the idea I got from Concept Arts.

I'll start with something seasonly.
Spoiler:

I am not quite done with this though. This particular avatar have exchangeable parts such as her hat and body parts. Those are all saved as separate layers can be replaced and updated for other event or a different look.

The Same monster from the sketch a couple days back.





Dump 110307-110407:



Super Scooter <3

Rococo get around town in her "Super Scooter". (lol) An electric moped that goes up to around 30 mph. It tows a little trailer thingy for shopping purposes. Its got Rococo's Bakery Sign on it.

I am actually not very good at drawing people operating something or riding bike or something of that nature, the object that they are interacting with often interferes my drawing of the character from time to times.



Shinzo as an adult(18). He joined the royal paladins guards of the Lanthine, although remain somewhat of a rogue. He doesn't have much of his timidity as a child.


Mikael: Care taker to Lanthine, until the day Princess Arrowyn is to take power.

Karlim, House of Gray Wolfs. The reason that the Bounty Hunter's Guild has hold up for so long is because of him. War buddies of Leon and Jack during the Uggrasuix-Gaianian Wars. He had a fallout with Jack after the war on some principle issues which eventually leading to jack leaving the guild. He remain at the guild and working behind the scenes to bring small reforms to the practice of the organization.

Cyclones, developed during Tartarus' rebellion against Lanthine, they belongs to a class of monsters that are totally powered by magic. Immune to Cathian based spells and life force magic. Was the most effective weapons against the undead... until it turns against Lanthine during the Titan War.

Argo-Rimu: A lesser demon assigned with the task of assassinating Princess of Lanthine.

Some Rendering issues
Blender's Internal Rendering Engine Rendering time a few seconds


Spoiler:

Yafray: 27 minutes


the light setting for the two render is exactly the same, there is exactly one light, there is a subtle but important difference in depth of the image. Particularly in the shadows.

I really like the render of the building quite a bit! I actually connect with it strongly because it reminds me of the stuff I used to design in UnrealEd back in the day. Sigh.

The building is interesting, I gotta do a fly through one of those days. Radiosity take too long to render though. UnrealEd eh? Man, It would be fun to create interesting envirment to explore. -w-
Spoiler:

Some experimental method, I haven't "speed paint" for a while. Around 20


also a little update on the buildings.

Hey thanks. :3 I am actually not particularly good at coloring. <.<, I am still working on it, there are people that I really likes in terms of coloring style that I am trying to emulate.
Practice, mainly from the photo reference dub tutorial book "portraiture" (It was a Japanese publication), I have had it quite a few years. There are a lot portrait photo in that book, pretty good for this purpose.
Spoiler:


Ruby... Just doodle.

The solar array controls... This doesn't actually show up in the render that much, but I am thinking about putting in some additional details in it.



Here are the renderings. The Blender's internal Ambient Occlusion rendering...

and Yafray.

I added some stuff when I was working on the Yafray. Note that it doesn't have the grainy quality of the Ambient Occlusion, which I liked, however, it creates lights in much better fidelity, of course, the down side of that is time.
Although time consuming, its also very possible to make pretty good rendering with Ambient Occlusions.

Although I still haven't being able to reproduce the effect of "light through transparency", not even caustics, I still have a lot to learn.

I probably should rely less on the use of raytrace reflection on those images, its beginning to feel gimmicky, heh. I just found out how to use "array" modifiers on Blender.

Nice sketch style. Keep up the good work. ^_^ I think that variety is neat, and showing both sides to the style makes it intriguing. : )

Very, very impressive. I would hope that you are posting at more serious art sites in addition to this place, as it seems constructive criticism is very scarce here; not that you need it. You do seem to take pride in improvement and also seem very serious with what you do.

One word to sum it all up.. awesome. Hope to see your mark somewhere like on a video game or something mass-produced one day. You know, the whole "I met a celebrity online" deal. ;p

Hey thanks. I am not sure how "serious" the type of art forum you are thinking off, but I do post in some professional forum such as Concept-arts on occasions. Although my prospect is currently pretty dim at the moment.

Some New sketches.






Some stuff that I posted in my journal.

it's too bad the creators cafe has lost so much interaction since the olden days otherwise you'd be getting many stars for your awesome art. I especially like your armored characters.
I also cought your video of the lucky star art you did in open canvas. very awesome work

Sort of delayed, but thanks.

I think I hit rock bottoms. Maybe its time to dust myself off. I personally feel most productive when I am drawing, but I have been rather distracted by other things recently.
