Back to drawing


Bladerunner "I have seen things ... they're memories..." study





So these last few weeks you might have noticed, that I've been updating this blog more frequently. There's two reasons for that. First is, that design-school is on vacation and second I'm able to work more again. :)

This Post is to keep u guys updated on what I'm doing right now. I had to work this week, so I collected a few drawings to have something up atleast.
I have a announcement to make. I will start a new blog, that will be updated separately. The new blog will be more about my career. I don't want to spoil to much, this blog will go only on 1st of August.
Well  here are the studies I did this past week.

from life






So you see I really suck at drawing, BUT drawing with these ballpoints and ink was a very good decision. I try to actually not make any mistakes. You could ask why I wont paint that much anymore. Well thats because i found out that drawing is more important.
You can always render and put an incredible amount of time into a painting. However if you are really good at drawing the painting becomes just a question of how good your technique is, how much time the little tricks may save you.
For someone like me time is a very important thing, i can't render a painting all day... this is not me and furthermore because i'm still so weak in so many other things, painting decreases my learning speed even more. Of course i love painting but right now its not the right thing to dive into.

The skull ref i got from www.CGbrush.org , Once your there Check out Gloominatis paintings, they're awesome. :)


And as allways, have a great one :)

Day 21"The other Sirene" progress and rant

Hey :) Here the process of the painting. first the sketch, then basic mood, then slowly indicating light and shade, and then just back and forth adding details and setting the lights. Now, why did I think I have made a major breakthrough? Well that is because, I let go of my doubts. I mean I know I'm still not as good as I could be but it is definitively getting there. Last Friday I was at gamescom. It was amazing, a lot of fun and i got so many new impressions. It is so good to see the aftermath of what you will be creating some day and especially to meet the audience. Well I started the day pretty early at 7am to go there and I left at 7.30pm. After I came back I could barely move from the howl walking but I was so enthusiastic that I sat down and started sketching, right after I made some black tea and drank two cups. The energy I suddenly had was a miracle to me, I just wanted to paint and it all worked. I was never before that ...

Introducing Loomic's 800day Deathline Challenge.

Hi there.  This is Mitch or Michael Loos aka Loomic. I study Communication-Design near Cologne Germany. I aim for a career in the entertainment design industry as an Illustrator,Animator and Concept-artist. In a distant future I want to produce great content like Films and Games, but first I want to work and get into the industry. Roughly eight month ago, I started the Crimson daggers Deathline challenge. My goals were essentially the following: To paint 48 paintings, to do sports and get super healthy and fit and to go on writing a chapter of my book each month. But in may last year i got RSI, because of my reckless wish to get better at any cost. It got to the point where anything I held caused sharp pain in my wrist and thumb joints. The Doc put my right arm, form Hand to elbow, in cast and when he removed it, two weeks later, he said there was nothing I could do to improve my condition other than to take breaks and that this condition would never turn back t...

Day 200 Review

Bild
Yes so there it is 1/4 of the way. I'll now use this occasion to reflect on the past 200 days. I started out with these goals: 1# To Create a stunning diploma, that I can be proud of and that could be sold with good consciousness. (The Work within that diploma is supposed to be my portfolio). 2# To become super healthy and super fit. Which means that during these 800 days I want to do sports almost every day even if it is just 15 minutes of crunches and push-ups(weekends excluded). And to lose 25lbs for good, doing so. 3# To get a lot more organized and to work with more discipline. Looking back to the start I can't help but wonder what keeps changing my spirit. The answer is easy, its myself. Those are some strange revelations. The design Academy's workload is going insane on me. And I really hate some of these assignments, denying it is futile.  Getting it done wasn't quite as easy as i'd hoped 200 days ago, infact some of those assignments are still goin...
