Lilith & Diana

Hmm, well I've finished this, so now it's just subject to client's final approvement. :)

I'm quite happy with this. I really enjoyed making the background in this painting session. :)

These are a few edits that were required by the client.

Lilith & Diana WIP 9

Ok, so this is practically finished apart from final touches now... :)

Lilith & Diana WIP 8

Worked on Lilith's hair here.

Lilith & Diana WIP 7

Have worked on Lilith's face this time!

Lilith & Diana WIP 6

Here I've spent time ageing Diana... so I hope this has worked. I've added a lot of hand drawn texture to the skin, wrinkles and folds (subtle and not so subtle).

Lilith & Diana WIP 5

I've worked on Diana's face & skin, which are pretty much done now apart from the lips and some final definitions. I'll work on her red robes next but first... it's lunch time! It would be great if I could get Diana finished off today, actually! :-)

Lilith & Diana WIP 3 & 4

The next two WIPs from a commission I'm working on of two original characters (who are twins). Basic colours, and then work on Diana's hair. Actually really happy with the hair and enjoyed doing it, which makes a change! :-)

Lilith & Diana WIP 1 & 2

The start of a commission of some original characters, identical twins. The preliminary gesture sketch for the pose, and also the detailed sketch. I had better get this approved as is, actually, before I continue with the colouring!

Oscar & Marco : Final Piece

Final piece, approved by the client. Got some prints of this done today and they look great! <3 I think I will start to offer prints of my digital work. Theyre actually pretty easy to do.. :) You can see the animated WIPS here: http://imaeko.deviantart.com/art/Marco-and-Oscar-WIPs-Animation-205903500

Oscar & Marco WIP9

About another half hour, so 9 hours in total on this now. I am hoping this is the final draft - currently awaiting client approval on this. Once received I'll post up a larger final version. :-) This has been a really different challenge to normal, but I've definitely enjoyed it! :)

Oscar & Marco WIP8

Another hour working on Marco's ear and eyes - just his chest & general tidying up to do now! :) Up to 8 and a half hours now.

Oscar & Marco WIP7

Another hmm.. I'd say half hour on this, working on Marco's face. Just really got his eyes, upper right quadrant of the face, and chest to do now. :-)

Oscar & Marco WIP6

Another hour on this now. Marco is starting to take shape. :-)

Oscar & Marco WIP5

Another hours work on this - I have started Marco here. I have a feeling he will be pretty hard to draw! We shall see. :-)

Book Illustration - 'Caris'

This is a book illustration I worked on this week, of "Caris" the angel. A few hours in photoshop. Hopefully more illustrations from this book to follow. :-)

(p.s. I know the wings are not anatomically correct - it was the client's wish that they be drawn this way).

Oscar & Marco WIP4

About another hour and a halfs work and Oscar is done! :-) 5 hours so far; roughly on target with where I want to be with this piece.

Oscar & Marco WIP3

About another hmm.. half an hour on this? I'd say 3 and a half hours so far on this piece. Have detailed the middle of Oscar's face and the left side around and including his eye. I really dont want to stop drawing this but I shall have to put it down for tonight..! Can't wait to pick this up tomorrow. :-D

Oscar & Marco WIP2

So, WIP 2 after another session yesterday. Here I've spent time detailing Oscar's left ear and upper face. Another hour and a bit here? I'd probably say 3 hours so far on this now.

Oscar & Marco WIP1

So I had to drop my Brian Cox drawing for the moment, to do a commission of two siamese cats, but I don't mind as this should be a fun and interesting challenge! I'll come back to you soon Brian, lol. :)

Lots of work will go into this as I'm not really an animal artist. So lots of practice, here! I've started drawing Oscar here (Marco is currently the big white space... lol). Have blocked in the very rough colours. I'd say an hour and a bit to this stage, perhaps?

Portrait Commission Final

Can't believe I forgot to post this here.. sorry! Enjoy :-) This is a commission I finished a few weeks ago now.
