Summer Sun

Most people by now have had enough of summer, except for me. I really like the hot summer sun, as well as the hot dry climates that my desert home holds. Since summer is winding down, and fall is nearly upon us, I decided to make an image depicting the strong summer sun, high in the sky. I've made an image that depicts the noon day sun, but I thought I'd go a really hot route with this one, and here it is, Summer Sun


Same style as before, except I brought back the Kaleidoscope effect here. Radial Extruder is here as well as some of the other classics such as Dents, Radial Blur, and Splinter. I did do something different with the background, and added a gradient with some yellow in there. I think it adds a much better touch than just a plain black background and I may experiment with that in the future. Enjoy, and I'll be back with more.

Big Jet from Little Einsteins

Image
Yet another image of a character from the show Little Einsteins. Thought this Thanksgiving week, that I would show my thankfulness by making these for my boys, who LOVE this show. After making Rocket, I thought, why not make the enemy of the show, who's name is Big Jet. I also made a coloring page of this, which can be found a while back on my Instagram page. Here is the finished image. Like Rocket, I started with an outline of Big Jet based on this picture , but was also going for making it more high def. I then filled in the color, and applied some of the shading after. For some reason this one wasn't as hard as Rocket, either because there are more straight lines, or because I knew more of what I was doing. Hope you enjoy this shorter post, and I'll see you here again soon. Happy Thanksgiving!

Rocket from Little Einsteins

Image
With Thanksgiving being less than a week away, it is a good time to reflect and think about what you are thankful for. I'm thankful for my family most of all, and something that they love is watching TV. One show in particular they love is the Disney show Little Einsteins. I decided I'd make Rocket from Little Einsteins, based on this image , as well as a version that is a coloring page sort of thing. On here though, I'll just showcase the fully colored and shaded version (the coloring page version is on Instagram). So without further ado, here is Rocket! I started out with the outline, making different layers for different sections so that I can make a crude outline, and refine it section by section as I went. I then colored in each piece on different layers, so that I can do further adjustments. I then made the darker lines on the hull, and extended the windows down a bit. I then worked on shading, and it took a long time to shade since there are many shapes and areas I w...

Stone Head

Image
Awesome artworks as always Julio! Here is something I am working on: The head was made in a program called: Sculptris, the stone texture was made in Paint.Net, and the moss was made in Photoshop (but I added it to the head in PDN). I still dont like the moss... I need to change something, and I still need to make a background. So this is still very much a WIP (work in progress), but I thought I would share it with you all.
