Stuff Im working on...


[Ryan's last post from the other site....]


Here's what I'm working on right now. Prob. won't get to finish it until after my deadline at the office. The actual images are on 14 x 17 bristol. Darth Vader ran off the page, so I had to cut and paste. I have to say, that M-effer is one challenging subject to draw. Anyway, like I said, will eventually get the Deathstar hangar with Mill. Falcon in the background. Also wil draw the lightsabers in photoshop.

Looks really cool so far. questions/comments:
1) so they are each on separate paper?
2) are you going to draw the backgrounds on these same sheets of paper or draw it separately and add it in digitally?
3) The hands look decent..obi wan's left looks stragely reminiscent of the adam warren sketch from the movie....
4) more big shoes with almost no contour or detail...coming soon? or R-dub signiture style?

uh the adam warren reference is actually adam hughes (?) from that comic con sketch book film you sent out to us a couple weeks ago. anyway I was just messing with you.

I am excited to see the final product. looks like a lot of fun. I am jealous. Right now my project is painting a piture for danette's mom's beach house (where we are going next week). It's going well so far. I need to finish it before I leave for vacation this weekend so I can give it to her when we get down there. I will post a picture of it later. I guess it counts as a potomac studios gig. She said she would pay me for it but told her not to worry about it. I may just charge her for materials...rambling....

wrt to the boots I thought the jedi's had those mummy looking boots like a bunch of bandages wrapped around their feet....maybe that was just poor ass luke.

I dig the different textures on vader's suit you really pulled that off well.

no problem...we dont need to meet this week. I dont know if i can anyway. I have to finish the painting before friday so I can pack and leave on saturday morning (3am....kids are great!)


Yeah again. I think vader's suit is looking really nice.

My project is "sand pipers walking along the beach" so far I have the background (ocean wave pulling away to reveal wet sand and some foam on the beach, wave receding in the background) still need to add some highlights to the water then its adding in the sandpipers. haven't decided if I am doing 3 or 5 of them. Given the time it's probably going to be 3! I'll post a pic tonight of the background pre-piper...
