Another speedpaint, this roughly around 2h. Painted in PS CS 4. Inspired by the lonewolf and cub manga.

These winter scenes are usually quick to paint, where painting is avoided in certain areas and kept white inverse painting i guess]]> Sun, 12 Jul 2009 18:30:22 +0000 http://samsonsreaper.cgsociety.org/gallery/784984

2h speedpainting. Painted in Photoshop CS 4.

Not much focus was spent on composition, instead light,color and texture was emphasized.

This painting started out as an initial speedpainting. But since it was some time ago i did a longer personal painting i decided to add a couple of more hours too it, landing at 5h. A lot of custom brushes were used to paint the rocky textures and a couple of flat rock textures with a blendmode.

There are still some light issues to be painted here and there but i decided to keep it somewhat crude and rough. Cleaning things up sometimes takes away a bit from the image.

A painting i have been working on on and off. This is inspirered by Bierstadts amazing paintings.

I am not sure on the hours spent on it but between 15-20h i thinks. Painted in CS 3. Some initial refs from milford sound was used. Hope you like it.]]> Tue, 01 Apr 2008 20:27:20 +0000 http://samsonsreaper.cgsociety.org/gallery/579285

A while ago there was an unofficial mattepainting challenge here on CGtalk. The task was to use an original plate, clear it from curtain obstacles then extend the set.

I must admit the challenge was quite fun to do. So i created the matte in Photoshop,and entered after about 30h on it.. The result was quite nice. However i felt that the matte still needed some work on it and so i picked up the work after some months away from it.

And this is the result. There was some minor perspective and light issues that i had to fix and so the process was pretty straight forward.

The mattepainting is a mix of photorefs and digital painting.The usual mattepainting procedure. Hope you like it

A new fun matte. This time not in the past("a long tima ago") but future. Maybe this is what we will see within 100years.

I started it in school and finished it at home. Approx 4-5h.
