Speed painting thread!

[sparth]

here's a thread for you peeps who do not want to stick to any themes.

post anything you want in there, from the moment it's SP.

[edit: davi]
this thread was moved because i deleted the themed speed painting forum, since the dsg took over.

[MGH]

OK, let's start this off shall we.
I had a job cancelled on me today so...when the going gets tough, the tough draw AIRPLANES!

whaaa *punched*

hey, you're playin battlefield, aren't you?

[MGH]

I don't want to seem like a total square here, but I'm assuming you're talking about a computer game.
Now, don't get me wrong, I do like them. It's just I think if I ever got any, I'd never get any work done and would end up divorced.
Cheers,
Mark

[cucaracha]

yup, exactly computer games are poison for work :xx:

so, here my first crappy attempt with oil pastels.
I think I didn't match the right shade color. I used some wrong brown first, you can see it on his dirty right side of the face.
ref used

This is my first time on this site ...
very cool stuff from everyone.
I am glad I finally got the money to switch to DSL(just last week) or I will never get to see all the work in this site. ( I just don't have the patience to wait for the pictures to pop-up when I used to have dial up).

So all the art here are done in less than an hour?
and ceenda I really like that painting you did with the boat.

[WildSpruceMoose]

Just a quick sketch of an evil dog for fun. Watching tv I thought meh, I should draw something and started just sketching a dog with an exo-skeleton. EDIT: Like under 30 minutes(One show of The Simpsons, the funny Sideshow Bob/Hannibal storyline episode.)

exo-dog (http://samurai-pete-studios.50megs.com/images/sketchdog.jpg)

BTW some C & C would be nice, but its just a speed painting, so no harshness please and thanks;)

Damn, ceenda!

This ones a quick post for ClotArkanstar. Trust me, yours isn't that bad. Yours is a recognizable object. Mine, well lets just summarize by saying that out of ten people, no one guessed (yep, I'm using the right word.) what it was. (Ah yes, the good old snake-elephant vs. hat problem...)

Ceedna, that last one looks like Sadukaar.

[sparth]

ha ceenda: souvenirs. it's been a while since i watch that sand movie :s
the expanded dune movie score is a classic for me, 30 tracks. i work with it often.

[ceenda]

Tedsuo: Hehe, I could never tell in the film whether these guys were supposed to be the Sadukaar or the Harkonnens. :p

sparth: The DUNE soundtrack is the bomb! It's one of my favourite pieces of music to listen to whilst painting. The track "Journey to Arrakis" is hauntingly beautiful.

[Aslev]

Great work everyone.

Started out with Painter Classic. I won't do that mistake again, a lot of time was spoiled. Photoshop and photo ref:

Mark - that howerpropellerthing is way cool. And obviously fast too.

jhibbs - simple but very effective.

ceenda - you've been pumping out lots of good speedy stuff lately. That flying propeller ship design is one of my favourites.

BlkCelebration - I like the pose and the silhouette.

notic - very nice colors on the bird!

[ceenda]

Rhomb: Thanks. :) Whenever I get frustrated with Painter, I usually have a look at your paintings to re-inspire me to try again.

One hour for a sewer environment - meant to do more with it but the figures don;t really turn out well. I'll probably use it for a study. Should be a monster in there too somewhere, lurking to grab the squad.

http://www.xs4all.nl/~erikedf/art/wip/sewer.jpg

BTW. Ceenda: amazing sense of detail without painting it all in - impressive for 40 min! Wish i could do that ...

[ceenda]

Erik: Hey, that's pretty neat. Perhaps some very faint hint of the legs under the surface of the sewage or some reflection might help the figures a bit. Otherwise, it's great.

[Erik]

Hey Ceenda,

Man that figure you added is really cool! Flipped it over too i see ;-)

Yeah i see what you mean about the part below the surface but my problem was the surface emits light. Really got me in trouble with shadows etc... And my lines are not crisp enogh. But oh well. And thanx for the compliment!

[Edit : decided to put in some more time in the image. replaced version above - ok, now it's not completely speedpaint anymore ]

Hey Erik, I like it! Much more detail than mine, and good mix of colours too.

Pat: Lovely work. I just don't get how you manage such sharp edges with painter. I think you sent me the details for that brush but I kinda screwed it up. :(

Lots of other good stuff too throughout the thread.

Denis - wonderful monsters.

ceenda - that refinery pic is really nice. The smoke and the sky tekstures look great.

BlkCelebration - great dynamic poses, the last one especially. What is OC btw?

[BlkCelebration]

OC is Open Canvas. It's a small art program for your computer, nice and simple. You can also do more painterly work.

I'm not sure if this is the site I got it from (it was a long time ago, so it may be down).

http://www.portalgraphics.net/

[ceenda]

OC is a kick-ass program. You can also share a canvas with other people over the net. It crashes when you do that alot though. :\

If you log on to #conceptart (the conceptart.org IRC channel) and type "!OC" into the window it'll give you a URL to download it from.

Thanx ;-)

-- Did you do the image with the palette knife only? That's remarkable. I've seen Android's work where he did that too (SPOD) but i never understand how the touches have so much direction! How did you do it?

SP in painter. Would've taken it further, but painter kept making these little pixelated artifacts, very frustrating. Anyone else had that problem?

[ceenda]

Erik: Yep, it's all done using the palette knife. I have a modified version of the palette knife that becomes more opaque the more you press with the stylus. However, if you use the palette knife lightly, it smudges the paint.

hethe: Wow, I really like that last one. Great shapes and atmospheric colour.

Tedsuo: Good portrait, I like it. I think the pixelation comes from the way that Painter does impasto. I think that if you use brushes like palette knife and chalk with impasto, it can sometimes add too much impasto and you get that massive difference.

fredfrickstone: Woah, fred! Long time. Great to see some new stuff. I'm too shy to take my sketchbook out in public.

Back into Photoshop for this:

A bit too stylised. Must do more ref work.

[fredflickstone]

ceenda, nice work, and great to see you again too. It has been long. Your work has grown since, I am really impressed. I need to hang around again more, I am stressing with all the work...this really helps loosen up again...are you working for anyone currently? How has your art curve been lately? Talk with ya again soon.

Thanks for the comments Ron. The art curve has been pretty bad this year because my time has been taken up with Research work (I'm a programmer by trade), which is why I've decided to stop doing programming and take time to study art for a few years. It's something I've been wanting to do for a while, but only recently decided that, at 23, I should probably be thinking about persuing art sooner rather than later. I have absolutely no idea where to get this education though. Possibly somewhere like Florence Academy of Art if my portfolio comes up to scratch. I put up a post about it here: http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8227 . Programming is good for $$$ and job opportunities, but if you don't enjoy it then it's time to try something else, I think. :)

Tedsuo: Great! The values here are awesome. Been thinking about Painter 8 too, but they'll have to patch some very annoying UI things before they get my £150. :)
