Project Nebula | Character Concept

Been hard at it the past few days.  We have a good rough of Josh the Whale finished, just waiting on music before we start the polishing stage.  Really looking forward to topping that project off.

Also, I have been doing allot of concept work for Project Nebula.  Been working with Ryan to work out world details, and a little bit of character design.

Speaking of which.  This design is mostly Ryan’s, but I adjusted some of the ideas, seeing where it would take me.  I also took the time to put together a time lapse video, something that I regrettably haven’t done in a while.

I love to look back on my processes.  Most of the time during painting, it is a blur.  I can’t distinguish one moment from the next.  So recording it, and comparing my technique to previous paintings is fun, as well as enlightening.

    Someone is sharing brainwaves with me x) who came up with the tattoo on the arm?

      Ryan wanted this character to have tattoos. So, I just painted some random shapes and whatnot, and this is definitely not the final character design.
