Ariel tribute

A very quick (about half an hour) kind of tribute to my first serious drawing I did when I was 7. One day I decided to literally trace Ariel from the book cover about Disney’s “Little Mermaid” (and yes, it was with the very same weird-hands-pose). I redrew the picture hundreds of times until I was able to recreate it exactly from imagination. Then I started adding my own elements like new hair styles, new clothes, changed positions, face expressions… and you can easily guess where it led me!
That’s why I’ll always have these special feelings towards Ariel and Disney animations in general, because thanks to them I can do what I’m doing now. ^^
Ah, I got sentimental. :P It’s just a quick picture after all!

I'm aliveeeee

Oh I know I haven’t been posting anything for like AGES, but don’t worry folks, I’m still alive and will flood you with new stuff hopefully soon xD So for now have a sketch of a to-be-finished kind of illustration and a concept drawing of one of its characters! ^^

:I

Self-portrait when grumpy. :I

Hello, pencil!

I honestly don’t remember the last time I actually drew something on paper. o_o So imagine that awkward feeling, when I grabbed a pencil for the first time in many many months, having no access to any tablet during my one-week holiday! xD No zooming, no undos, no layers. Wow, we surely get used to comfort.

Ah, but also imagine that long forgotten pleasure of rubbing soft graphite on a rough surface :D I must draw moar!

Video process of painting Dawn

(*warning* creepy accent approaching! o.o')

Here's the promised video of creating Dawn. This isn't any kind of a videotutorial, because these only random clips from the whole painting. BUT! I'll surely make one soon.
(If you have any problems with watching this video, check out this link)

Days of Dawn - character chart #2

Hi guys! I hope you remember the Caril character chart where I promised there'd be more. Well, there is, today! This time main female character, of course from the game "Days of Dawn". As usually, please to check out the game's official facebook page or its website.

Dawn is a 25-year-old mysterious girl who holds powers that even she can't fully control. Below you can see some of the pictures from her cretaion process. And later today I'm going to submit a video with the painting process! :3

Look how she's changed throughout the time.

These are surely lots of changes! And still we don't guarantee that this is her final version! Now have some concept sketches:

Well, that's it! Please support the game and wait for more updates! :3

Um...

Testing a new technique. On a pony. That made her embarrassed, oops! ;)

Love this feeling when I'm so tired and fed up with all the work that I scorn it all and spend the whole evening painting only for myself ._.

Schoolism #2

My second assignment from the Schoolism course "Advanced Lighting" with Sam Nielson. :3 The task was very similar to the first one - paint abstract 2D objects into a 3D, but this time colored picture with set lightings (and their colors), bounced lights, over exposure effect & various textures.
Harder than previously, but even more fun! :D

Schoolism!

Yep! I'm the one lucky person who spent all her carefully saved money for the amazing Schoolism course called "Advanced Lighting" with Sam Nielson as a teacher! During the exciting three months of lessons and by scrupulously doing my homeworks, I'll learn the secrets of better lighting and - hopefully!! - will improve my skills.

So today I'm showing you my first assignment. The task was to paint an abstract 2D object (previously lined by Sam Nielson) into a 3D black & white picture with a set lighting and add some texture on it (I also did the face and the hat :D).

I hope I'll be able to show you all the homeworks eventually. :)

Days of Dawn - character chart #1

Hello everyone! Today I want to share with you pictures involved in the main character development of the game "Days of Dawn" that I'm currently working on with a fantastic team. Take a moment or two and check it out on the game's official facebook page or its website. :3 I hope there'll be more updates from me soon about this project!

This, my dear followers, is Caril, our protagonist, a 16-18 year-old good-natured young lad, the main playable character.

Hope you like him!

sketchy

Yep, another sketch to my “someday-to-be-finished” collection. Characters from my story, Joann & Perseus (though his name still bothers me, lol).

Pinterest, anyone?

I made an account on Pinterest. What a great source of new inspirations and cool things! Check me if you’re curious.

White Eagle figure stand! Will be printed in 1:1 size, I can't wait to see it. I currently work as the colorist of the "White Eagle" comic series by WIZUALE Publishing. Drawings are made by Adam Kmiołek, and the story is written by Maciej Kmiołek.

Darn, they're terribly hard to paint! :P

Leila White

A ridiculously quick sketch of my Guild Wars 2 character, Leila White. ^^ I only played a bit during the weekend, but once I created her, I totally fell in love with her look. :D I'll definitely be playing this character after the official launch. :)

(oh and btw, the game is totally awesome!)

If you're curious, here's a screen of this character in-game: http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/7819/gw003eo.jpg (I was playing an Elementalist, but she'll probably be a Mesmer).

Facebook fanpage is now LIVE!

I oficially opened my Facebook fanpage! You can find it here:https://www.facebook.com/anako.art . Frequently updated, maybe it'll motivate me to keep this blog alive too. :D

This blog is alive!

Really.
