Love the Hwg repaint. Plus, very impressive painting there, thanks for sharing!

I also wanted to ask, are you painting in photoshop, or something else? And what tablet model are you using? Just curious.

Incredible style man! Really digging the brushwork and process shots. Also, you MUST complete that Heavy repaint! It's wicked!

Thanks again for the comments.

willy-wilson - I used just two brushes for that painting. One for creating the underpainting and another to fill it out.



I included a gif to show the buildup.



Here's a rar with all the brushes I've used for all the paintings posted.

i agree about the heavy repaint, it looks awesome and makes me want to try something like that with one of the other classes.

Wow, your paintings all have a great sense of lighting and the color schemes are beautiful. It would be nice to see a little more selective detail in a few of these to bring out the focal point a bit more, but they're seriously awesome.

Wow it's been a year! I have been extremely busy at work to do much at home, here's the latest sketches.













These next screens are what's been taking most of my time at home, trying to do a level for a sidescroller.








As you can see it's still WIP, the foliage is from Unreal. The final ones will be something more stylized to match the rest. Any critiques or question will be greatly appreciated.

Last week I left Shadows in darkness after almost 8 years, going to be taking a break. These next images were done this week. I won't be posting again for a month since I'm moving and I'm packing my machine up. I hope to come back and do a lot more work on the sketchbook more frequently.

As always critiques and comments are welcomed.
