My Own Private Silent Hill

If there's one franchise that has excited me and disappointing me. it's Silent Hill. I've played almost all of them but only the first three have been really good. Though some of the others had some cool moments, none of them captured the feeling of the old ones. I hear the last one is not so bad, as soon as I have my PS3 back I'll give it a try.
Anyway, I've been thinking about a new game. I would keep only a few things from the series and try something new. I want to mix some of the old horror elements with some Murakami bizarre stuff. I'll go further into details next update.
I've relied heavy on photo's this time. Still, I tried to really create something new with them, maybe I'll post a progress .gif sometime.

More Speedpaints

Okay, I say Speedpaints but when you start messing around with textures it normally takes a bit more time. Still, the end result is much more satisfying then just brushes.

EMP Tank Sketch

I had this laying around, it's just a sketch to illustrate an early idea of an E.M.P. tank. It would be deployed to knock-out all surrounding electric devices. It would then pull-back and let the rest of the squad finish the job.

An experiment

I was experimenting with using photo-ref material, distorting it and painting on top of it until it became something new. I was playing with the composition, not sure it that turned out alright :)

Midnight 15 minutes sketches

These seem to become more and more about loosening up before or after work I do for clients. 15 minutes to get ready to "pixel-fuck" (excuse me for the term, "wacom-bate" is also available) the rest of the day. Hey, don't get me wrong I love to pixel-fuck but there's nothing like a worry free sketch once in a while. I think I will start posting them more often again... like I promised last time. Okay, now where did I leave those tissues again.

16 hours, two characters.

I only had 16 hours to finish these two before I had to start on something else. That's why the level of polish is limited.

More Ballpoint Pen doodling

It's nice to sit and draw at a kitchen table and have some cheesy Easter films playing in the background. I'm trying out Sketchbook Pro on my old laptop. If I'm happy with the result I'll post it soon. A few more days and I will be reunited with my trusty set-up. Just about enough time to wear out my ballpoint pens.

Ballpoint Pen Madness

I love just doodling away with a simple ballpoint pen. No erasing, no undo button, I just have to make my mistakes work. My laptop is starting to really struggle with Photoshop so soon I might only be able do pen sketches until I get reunited with my trusty PC... I miss that beast!

Random Hopper

Just for fun, it was time for some more hard surface stuff. The design is a bit meh... oh well.

Lunchbreak Speedpaints

I've been keeping myself busy during lunch. Even though the weather is great I had to stay indoors to try-out Photoshop CS6. I'm very happy with it so far. Now I really need to do more environment speedpaints!

Quickies

I didn't look at the time, so I can't say if they were 15 minutes sketches. But they were done quickly!

15 minutes are back!

Inspired much? Anyway, more to come soon. This is just a warm-up!
