Self Portrait FIN

And I'm spent! It's me as a crazy golden lion tamarind. This is my final post for the CGTalk Imaginative Figure Workshop #001: Self Portrait As A Creature. Lots of fun work on the thread.

I think the hair is a little helmety and I completely wussed out on the background. But overall, I think it looks like a crazy monkey me.

Self Portrait Part 3

Probably should have come up with a common naming convention for these posts, but ah well. I threw some color on my self portrait as well as more hair. No eyebrows yet, but I have plans. Oh yes, I have plans.

Self Portrait update

This is my second update for the portrait as a creature workshop. I wanted to start building up some volumes off of the sketch so I started painting over. Tried not to get too detailed, wanted to concentrate on light and value. But I think I can push it more. Hope to finish by Thursday.

Self Portrait as a Creature Workshop

I'm participating in a workshop over at CGTalk. You have to do a self portrait of yourself as a creature. Could be an actual creature or something made up.

I chose a golden lion tamarin, my most favorite monkey. I think my left eye is drifting focus a bit, but I'll fix that when I get to the real painting.

Skinny Monkey King

More monkey sketches! Meant to upload this last night but lost track of time. Just another in a long series of studies to come up with my own Monkey King design.
