This...

A while back ago, I did a scene about a group of people being attacked by a snow beast. But, to be quite fair, the way I colored it was horrendous (college all-nighters does wonders to you that you should never experience). So, I decided to redo the coloring for it.

The result? I actually like it! (...finally.)

Background practice!

So I've been doing a few practices on backgrounds and environment (along with props). ...yes, I did use an image reference for this one and most of the times. Perhaps I should do a outside door scenery next. For now, this is what I have so far:

At least it took me a while to finally figure out the painting portion of it (for some reason, coloring line art like this comes simple for me).

More Graphic Design jobs... and this.

I was requested this a while back (around the winter) for a commission. The first one was for keynote awards - this one had a lot of details in terms of lettering along with the design along with legibility. I am not going to reveal which were the final designs.

The second commission was for invitation borders. That was fun (it really was; I am not going to lie).

And I was messing around in Photoshop over the watercolor brushes I found on http://cghub.com/.

And that being said, I want critiques for these backgrounds; I am hoping to get better with these!
