Nathan Fowkes' "Designing with Color and Light" Week 2


Week two is about believability. He gave us three black and white rough renderings of scenes and we are to paint over it using two sources of warm and cool lighting. I chose this scene from "How to Train Your Dragon."

He ripped me a new hole with the crits from the first week and took all of his advice and worked hard on this one and although I am not completely happy with it, I learned a lot. Meh, knowledge is power?

Here is the original to see what I had to work with:

Sketch Dump

I am back from backpacking and am ashamed at myself for not blogging throughout it. Was too busy experiencing life away from the screen and such. But here is a sketch dump, enjoy.



And I am enrolled in Schoolism's "Designing with Light and Color" class with the epic Nathan Fowkes. The first assignment was to do color study thumbnails of concept work I admire. Screenshots from: The Grand Budapest Hotel, AI, Ponyo, Frozen, Toy Story 3, Only Lovers Left Alive (hnnggg Tom HIddleston), Her, and various works from awesome concept artists.
