Concept Design II - Organic and Environments

Journal Entry: Tue Mar 25, 2008, 8:44 AM
This new work is from my second of three Concept Design classes.
This class deals with organic and creature design, as well as landscape and environment design.

As is the case with most of my design work, a lot of these drawings started off as pen/pencil on paper, and were then scanned or re-drawn to allow them to be painted digitally.

All of the work was done with speed and quantity in mind.

I appreciate your feedback!
The reason that I haven't posted any work other than what I've done this summer alone, is because I've created this site for the purposes of posting my work from this summer for my professor to critique. The "class" is only taking place this summer and so I can only show her work that I've created this summer.
Also, I looked up the name Mobius, and I got a few results. Regardless of which Mobius you meant, I can see that was a compliment, and I appreciate it.
Keep up the good work yourself! Your graphical work is quite inspiring and is very reminiscent of work by a tattoo artist. Very cool!

Cory,

I'm not sure why you'd make the limitation as far as only showing work from this year.

Your talent and imagination are evident.

You would, I am sure, be a welcome long term member to this site.

By all means, do whatever you feel neccesary to protect your imagery, but please consider continuing to share it with us here.

As far as my observations: Those works which are founded upon your original pencils were the most appealing to me. You have an interesting style. I find myself reminded of Mobius. If you do not know the name, google it along with the modifdiers: fantasy, illustration, and you will, I am sure, be surprised.

Your colors looks like watercolors. As if you perhaps used Dr. martin's or Windsor and Newton inks or dyes. It's a great effect. There is a lot of originality of style maintained despite the fact that the work is manipulated and colorized in a raster program.

Very impressive.

Considering the fact that you describe these as sketches (I personally believe some of this work is sufficiently finished to be used in game design/comic illustration etc., as is) I would love to see some of your more finished works.

Respectfully,

Darkmir

Glad to say that "keeping up with the joneses" no longer means it's time to go see my dealer...

I'm pretty sure that the career services is still open... I'm still getting e-mails from them anyway.
Never hurts to check!

Well, in two weeks I'm headed to indianapolis for Gencon and I'm going to take resumes, business cards, printed handout portfolios and manuscript sections to dish out to potential companies. I've been thinking about going over to career services to talk to them, but I'm not sure if they're open over the summer.

That's one of your independent studies with Diane?
I assure you, I can relate to how much work those "do it yourself" classes can be.
How goes the job search?

Its going pretty good, I'm a few days from done with one of my classes, though I haven't worked on my paintings as much as I'd have liked, its about time for some break.

Yeah it should work out well. Diane told me that you use DA to post and show her the stuff you're working on for this summer. So she suggested that I do the same thing instead of trying to e-mail everything to her.
I used to be a member years and years ago... but I no longer remember me account name and PW... so I had to make a new one... oh well.
How's your summer?
=Arcandio:iconArcandio: Jul 31, 2007, 3:02:15 PM
Hey man! Welcome to the DA! It'll be cool to see some more of your work!
