And we're off!....again!! Here's the concept sketch, let's see where it takes us. :) |
||
Size: 24 x 30 Acrylic on canvas 08-07-06: To quote a friend "What kind of person would stand in front of a runaway train?" |
||
08-07-06: A while later... |
||
08-08-06: Worked the figure, background, steam and starting the layers to imply the depth. |
||
08-14-06: |
||
08-16-6-06: |
||
08-17-6-06: |
||
08-19-06: I've worked the background and started to enforce the idea of the "train" building speed and pressure. Also I fixed the cheek bone. ;) |
||
08-20-06: Continued to wash the background. The idea is to build up layers to give the and ethereal kinda' feel to the piece. I've continued to work on the head and body. |
||
08-22-06: Refined areas on the head, body and arms. Since this guy is running at full tilt I need to capture the amount of energy and power built up inside. To do so I'm using the reds and yellows to convey a boiler overheating. |
||
08-26-06: Worked on some details and overall feel of the piece. |
