B4 work
Had some time before work around 10-20 min, So I tinkered out some thumbs. Feel like I need to adopt Scott Robertson's way of getting thumbnail snaps . Also I thinks its time I planned and hammered out 2-3 good solid polished environments( about 2- 3days time) and move to props and creatures. I need to strengthen my portfolio and skills before pax prime. Also in some respects I feel I am ready, in others I do not . In the foundation of images I feel like I am almost there. Again, I need to work on leading the eye and developing levels of detail. Lighting I believe is coming around with time and study.

Silly Heads
Back from a bit of a break but nonetheless determined ! sketched some heads while playing league during load times and threw them in photoshop to paint tonight this was about 30min . Needto be faster for this amount of variation but could take them diff directions or extremes ie "push it " more in the directions I have.

A tattoo that took to long
So about a year ago a co-worker came to me about getting a tattoo. I had trouble at first discerning what they actually wanted for the tattoo but eventually it worked out.
The task was to create a tattoo using the letters " THLK" originally Y as well, but later we decided against it, to create a symbolic tattoo representing strength love and family.
I began trying to overlap the letters to create a symbol of sorts and possibly something of oriental visual style. I tried thinking in circular patterns as was the natural tendency.
After one meeting we found that the we wanted a tree design , which led me to the quite literal final result using the leo symbol as a foundation and drawing a tree representing family on top with the letters entwined.
I learned a lot about baby steps in freelance and some things to look for within that. Tried my best to keep the lines clean in the final for hand off to some one doing the actual ink as I have no knowledge of that process. I also stayed in frequent contact. My only regret is that it took so long to deliver.
