Little sculpture painting process, Heavypaint

Pas de Inktober pour moi cette année, à la place je vais vous partager un carnet que j'avais bricolé en 2023 pour nos 10 ans avec @arthurbrgs.bsky.social Une planche par jour, je mettrai du contexte dans le texte alt ✨ Pour garder le suspense je vous dis pas combien il y en a 👀

Here's a little comic sort of thing I made last year (1/7)

Hello 🌼✨ Si jamais vous fêtez la fête des mères/pères, j'ouvre quelques places pour des commandes de portrait 💗 Contactez-moi en mp pour toute demande d’info 🌞

The campaign is live! Here is the full illustration I created for the Endless Bloom chapter! If you like unique designs, mysterious stories, and all the magic that comes with playing DnD - check our project out! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ska... #TTRPG #DnD #5e

Day 3/30 of #pleinairpril Tried out a bike path for the first time and saw a cool boat c:

1/2 Pleinairpril 2 I tried to find a spot to paint some industrial/railway zone near my home, there are so many interesting stuff to paint. But there weren't many good spots. I felt so exposed and uncomfortable at the idea of putting my gear down and sit alone a couple hours in that kind of place.

I'm really excited to show some snippets of my work for a unique collaborative D&D illustrated book. The campaign will go live very soon: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ska... I'm illustrating one of 4 chapters of the book, I can't wait to show you the full illustration!

#pleinairpril2025 01 This month I'd like to work exclusively in traditional medium from location. Here is a view from the cathedral of Tours, I finished it at home after freezing in the shade for too long. @warriorpainters.bsky.social #pleinairpril #NoPleinNoGain

3 days left to get this cute pin! 🐈‍⬛⭐

The raw renders and the assets!

A blender walk navigation view inside the 3D scene.

Some other views of a small mediterranean village I built with my asset kit. Including cats!

An old project using loose black and white painted textures and projection mapping for creating 3D assets.

The kuwahara node and paintover combo works well with photorealistic models too. Here is a scene that took about 1 hour to create, using previously made assets, a well established startup file, 2-3 rendered images to mask effects. Then paintover to correct the details and add final color tweaks.

Playing with some handmade lowpoly assets. Experimenting with the kuwahara node in the compositor. I'm really enjoying this workflow.

Soon 👁️👄👁️ I'm working on getting the kickstarter campaign ready 🖤

I'm really excited to annonce I'm part of this project alongside many talented writers and artists to create a unique D&D illustrated book! I'm working on an environment piece to illustrate one of the 4 chapters of the book. www.kickstarter.com/projects/ska...

A discussion point I raised at the @allgoodbookshop.co.uk writing group this week in light of everything going on in the world. "What's the point?"

And today I decided to recreate it in 3D! I used Blender, and Ucupaint addon to enable layers for the texture painting. I took some time to create custom brushes to replicate the style of the concept. I love that bird! Here is a sketchfab link: skfb.ly/purES

Here is a concept I did a few months back!

First foes and combat once landed on the island. #dnd #fantasy #visdev #environmentdesign

The sketch from yesterday and this one are based on a DND campain we started last year with friends. I'm still warmed up from heavyjan so I plan and hope to continue this series during february. I started with color sketches based on works from Ivan Aivazovsky and Théodore Gudin. #dnd

I started this sketch with two color studies from the russian painter Ivan Aivazovsky (top). Then I made two compositions inspired by the colors before refining the concept. #environmentdesign #visdev #conceptart #pirateship #illustration

Here is a collage of all the heavyjan paintings! Congrats to everyone who participated. Thank you for your comments and reposts, it was very appreciated.

#heavyjan2025 day 31! #heavyjan #heavypaint. I'm really happy with the outcome of this challenge, especially because I managed to use personal reference throughout the whole month.

Took a break today to draw for myself (it's been...months ?) Same round brush challenge 4 years apart, and this time without any opacity variation I clearly didn't feel like spending any time on her jacket 😬
