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 👀

Petit carnet rose (couleur PQ en fait.......)
Relié de manière très approximative, je suis si peu de droite qu'aucun angle ne l'est on va dire.
Il s'ouvre sur une première planche avec nos deux portraits au feutre fin rose, je nous ai représentés à 30 et 29 ans

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

A gouache painting of an upside down boat at a dock on a small river. Ripples lead up to the boat, which stands out brightly against the background. Behind the boat is a large willow tree. The light and grass color convey a bright early spring day. Some of the tree branches in the scene are still bare.

A photo of the same painting still clipped to the easel. Behind it is the river and the boat. The light has changed, now being overcast with a partly cloudy sky in the background.

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!

4 early sketches of the illustration, which gave the overall color scheme and mood.

#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

gouache painting of the back of a cathedral, the blue sky is contrasting with the tall volumes of the monument. Some part are sunlight and other in the shade which create a balanced composition.

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.

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

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

#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 😬

Same photo reference, this time I approached it with a more stylized style, to cope with the challenge of using only a hard round brush
