Work in Progress if you know, you know

If you know, you know.

Current painting I’m working on at the moment. I’m actually almost done, but it’s gotten rather late and I need to eat and rest a bit. So I’ll finish it tomorrow. Bummer. Though I guess that will give me some time to rest my eyes from the painting. Perhaps some things will be improved because of it.

Hasta la proxima,

Turtle Knight

Just a quick painting that I was sketching till it turned into this. At some point it looked like a set of armor so I decided to go with it. The base was started with the Real Tapered Wet Flat Brush and at some point I went over it with the Tapered Oils brush.

Hasta la proxima,

How to Draw Challenge: The Thirteenth – Solid Snake (COLOR)

Solid Snake, probably the coolest old guy ever. I seriously wanted to work on some hard lines especially in the face, and what better way to do that then to use one of the most iconic old mans we have seen so far in gaming history. The Metal Gear series truly deserves all the recognition it has acquired so far. The game play is extremely interesting and fun, plus the story is really well made. Although some of the evenths of the last title of Metal Gear made it seem like the saga was over, I have read some interviews where Hideo Kojima mentioned that the story might advance a bit more. Hopefully that will happen, after all it would be awesome to see Snake hiding under a box at least one more time.

Hope you enjoy it,
