New Toys and all nighters
So I got new toys, ZBrush, Photoshop CS6, and Painter 12. It’s going to take getting used to, instead of the open-sourced equivalents, but I think it will help tremendously in making better art. (At least for Vectors, GIMP is horrible for making vectors).
That said, working on the Gustav commission now. I finished the sketches, which is toying around the idea of the two faces of the owners, with rainbow trees branching upwards breaking into branches filled with plates and sweets, to where the top spreads out into the milky way and connects the two thoughts. And then the art nouveau pastels as colors and a rectangle in the middle containing the shop’s sign and words.
That said, I need to go and make a quick run and take another photograph of the shop sign, the one I did before was a bad quality version, and then come on back and work on that. Tomorrow though, after work, there is the competition meeting, and I think I’ll be pulling another all nighter to finish the painting at the network cafe. I was able to get the place closed down for one day and night to finish that. I also need to meet up with Gustav’s owners, and then see if we can arrange a time where they could close a bit earlier than usual so I can work on the painting on the metal shutters there.
Fun, fun, fun.
