I also used some different colors this time to incorporate more cool and subtle tones, such as van dyke brown mixed with ultramarine blue for deep cool dark's, instead of asphaltum which makes a rich warm dark. Maybe its the photo but it looks like his beard could've used some more love.. This one is also for <a href="http://jeffrassier.blogspot.com/">Jeff</a>, and it made for some colorful commentary while getting tattooed.<br /><br /><br />11"x14" oil on canvasCordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-82915589872794721422012-01-21T16:05:00.000-08:002012-01-21T16:33:19.403-08:00Texture Sketches!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-znhar89TEVw/TxtVSj_vmTI/AAAAAAAAB2c/AC7yCWugc-8/s1600/ww3sketch.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 242px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-znhar89TEVw/TxtVSj_vmTI/AAAAAAAAB2c/AC7yCWugc-8/s320/ww3sketch.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5700243530756102450" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-muqQiWksdKs/TxtZIzaz8_I/AAAAAAAAB2o/ElbGzpGNJq8/s1600/stretch.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-muqQiWksdKs/TxtZIzaz8_I/AAAAAAAAB2o/ElbGzpGNJq8/s320/stretch.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5700247761143985138" /></a><br /><br />A couple of quick paint sketches playing with texture, which is always fun. I used a couple of photo texture overlays, some "natural hair" brushes, and opaque lines. The top sketch is based off a gorgeous sculpture by Bhead, which is far more interesting than my sketch.

And he just needs to use your bathroom right quick...I feel this one went dutifully well in regards to speed and clarity of execution, simple as the composition is. Although I may have overworked it in some areas (or not enough if self criticism comes lacking).

This is some of the work I've done for the game <a href="https://www.kabam.com/kingdoms-of-camelot/">Kingdoms of Camelot</a>, which I worked on from January to this past November. It was interesting compiling all the work I've done so far and getting that eye-opening objective view (most notably of my early intern work, yeesh!). I've learned a great deal since then, as one of the perks of this company is being surrounded by incredible artists with fresh skill sets and approaches. It keeps me inspired and excited being around such talent and energy.

This one was bigger and a bit more troublesome due to my (lazy) lack of pre-planning (a little value sketch goes a long way kids!) I used warm back light with cool front light to push contrast and mood, similar to the last one. Of course the next challenge is putting more figures in the composition so that my artistic cojones may flourish. And my post wouldn't be complete without a disclaimer apologizing for the slight glare in the photo, as the dancing gnomes failed to appear, yet again..<br /><br />16"x20" Oil on canvasCordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-5937930861701992022011-10-30T20:46:00.000-07:002011-10-30T21:15:21.024-07:00Lurker<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Sa7HIUq7_Zc/Tq4fS44XaFI/AAAAAAAAB0g/h_q_xs6wN1U/s1600/lurker.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 241px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Sa7HIUq7_Zc/Tq4fS44XaFI/AAAAAAAAB0g/h_q_xs6wN1U/s320/lurker.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669503390272940114" /></a><br /><br />Another one for, you guessed it, <a href="http://jeffrassier.blogspot.com/">Jeff</a>!

I traded this painting, as well as the last two oil paintings, for Jeff's tattoo expertise which I'll show once my camera stops being a glitchy douche and stays on long enough for me to take some decent photos. 12x16 Ur-uhl ohn kanvisCordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-37543811256637460892011-09-06T12:20:00.000-07:002011-09-06T12:28:26.794-07:00Wired<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NX6gknvOPhk/TmZyin_K4JI/AAAAAAAABzU/K0M1gvX8of4/s1600/wired.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 241px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NX6gknvOPhk/TmZyin_K4JI/AAAAAAAABzU/K0M1gvX8of4/s320/wired.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649328721757921426" /></a><br /><br />Another oil painting for <a href="http://jeffrassier.blogspot.com/">Jeff</a>.

<br />Here be the finished painting matey, me first in many moon...argh. It's been at least six months since I've painted anything in oils. It felt good getting my hands, table, floor, pants, keypad and headset dirty again. I've come to know this fine gentleman as Jesup, the mutated monkey. I apologize for the shoddy photo, an inadvertent faux pas when out of practice for too long. This was done for my friend and tattoo artist <a href="http://jeffrassier.blogspot.com/">Jeff Rassier</a>. 12"x16" oil on canvasCordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-63759444400672513892011-08-15T09:12:00.000-07:002011-08-15T09:14:41.068-07:00Sketches!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3vVpjh7MM6k/TklFrGwZp4I/AAAAAAAABy8/S0jZjCWyAz8/s1600/monkey_sketch.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 160px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3vVpjh7MM6k/TklFrGwZp4I/AAAAAAAABy8/S0jZjCWyAz8/s320/monkey_sketch.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5641116615108568962" /></a>

<br />So yes, this blog has been dead for a few months now, due largely in part to my current employment at <a href="http://www.kabam.com/">Kabam</a>. I've recently caught the creative bug again and this past Sunday afternoon yielded inspiration of the primate kind, sparked also by the recent release of Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, which I highly recommend seeing. These sketches are a precursor to a finished oil painting.Cordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-52501161877102227872011-03-08T11:17:00.001-08:002011-03-08T11:26:11.696-08:00Grub Killer<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5W-OMLE_6nM/TXaBPhlmhBI/AAAAAAAABxA/1CwNLvmO6R0/s1600/COG_Selfportrait.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5W-OMLE_6nM/TXaBPhlmhBI/AAAAAAAABxA/1CwNLvmO6R0/s320/COG_Selfportrait.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581790891886412818" /></a><br /><br />I've been in Gears of War mode the past few days and decided to do a fan piece in anticipation of GOW3.

The final review last Tuesday went extremely well, and quick. They had a few (expected) issues with my story beats and not having turnarounds for my characters, but I received excellent marks overall. Its refreshing to be done with this and I've found a renewed capacity to look up at the sky and take a deep breath. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TQPMuv63G2I/AAAAAAAABv8/WBNWAqPBjvs/s1600/AJDevFinal.jpg"><img style="display:block;

This is a first for me so it was a challenge but a lot of fun.Cordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-3654671781374663382010-10-19T10:06:00.000-07:002010-10-19T10:10:30.409-07:00The Bird Is the Word<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TL3Q_HtX63I/AAAAAAAABts/wCdnxGrSRtI/s1600/gbhead.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 251px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TL3Q_HtX63I/AAAAAAAABts/wCdnxGrSRtI/s320/gbhead.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529805700300532594" /></a><br /><br />Quick study of the GodBeast, my villain's ultimate creation.Cordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-55341396487787796582010-10-04T15:12:00.001-07:002010-10-04T19:37:57.685-07:00Exteriors<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKpVqZ2fFEI/AAAAAAAABtc/HpBfiPKzfeU/s1600/ext3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 138px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKpVqZ2fFEI/AAAAAAAABtc/HpBfiPKzfeU/s320/ext3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524322079905616962" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKpVqHXhP8I/AAAAAAAABtU/IqIjXNQXbEU/s1600/ext4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 141px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKpVqHXhP8I/AAAAAAAABtU/IqIjXNQXbEU/s320/ext4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524322074943897538" /></a><br /><br />A couple thesis environments of the overtaken town. I've got a handful of these semi-complete exteriors, five of which are required for the final. They need only be comps, establishing value, color, mood etc, but its hard not to get wrapped up in the detail of the alien growth. Thus my main goal now is to push the character and accuracy of the buildings underneath the growth to give it more credibility and maintain interest.Cordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-54722470343254408592010-09-27T11:45:00.000-07:002010-09-27T11:52:33.628-07:00AJ and Skinner Re-Do<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKDmnllhDbI/AAAAAAAABss/EMcuMyGZGBo/s1600/ajfinal.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 244px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKDmnllhDbI/AAAAAAAABss/EMcuMyGZGBo/s320/ajfinal.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521666710934982066" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKDmoOzgy5I/AAAAAAAABs0/zDm2xvL7IxU/s1600/dirt.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TKDmoOzgy5I/AAAAAAAABs0/zDm2xvL7IxU/s320/dirt.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521666721999539090" /></a><br /><br />So finally some characters. AJ (the female) is the heroine of my thesis story, kidnapped and experimented on using alien technology which she now uses to her benefit in a plot of revenge. Likewise for the Skinner character, minus the hero and revenge parts. I like him much better now than the god-awful <a href="http://thousandyearslong.blogspot.com/2010/08/this-is-thesis-character-with-idea-that.html?showComment=1281722383608">first attempt</a>.Cordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118887643997878810.post-79614938810916519492010-09-18T00:16:00.001-07:002010-09-18T00:30:09.131-07:00The Organism<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TJRpBYoIu8I/AAAAAAAABsg/inHak078PQY/s1600/tpole.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XKEqJBWJAnM/TJRpBYoIu8I/AAAAAAAABsg/inHak078PQY/s320/tpole.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5518150915947281346" /></a><br />The environment for my thesis is a depleted mining town covered in an alien growth. This is my first painted design attempt. There's definitely a nod to Beksinski with this image, and that type of bleak moody atmosphere is generally what I'm aiming for.Cordell http://www.blogger.com/profile/07421889836253140576noreply@blogger.com0
