Design Practice
I often do this kind of practice to build my visual library, practice new shapes, and test things in my workflow. Only the last fantasy armor is my original design. The others are clothing and a cosplay from pinterest that I transferred to the base body I am working over. I was focusing on getting n...

Figure Study
This pose actually proved to be a real challenge, but I like how it turned out in the end. I was really focusing on sculpting the form and getting some nice color variation in the skin. I attached the PSD if you'd like to see how I build the painting.

Jessy Illustration Package
Here is a step-by-step breakdown of the illustration process as well as the original PSD file and brushes.
Jessy Illustration
I switched up the color scheme in the end but I like how it turned out with the charcoal grey against the neon green! It brings out a bit more of a scifi feeling even if the clothing is worn down.
Jessy Illustration WIP
This week I'm painting up this character:) I can't quite decide on a color scheme and I might try some bold ones too in case something pops and feels right.

Reincarnation Illustration WIP
Testing out some different backgrounds for this illustration. I think I prefer the darker one with the blood in the red water. It really gives the impression that there's something menacing going on.
