 Based on the play by Molière, this is a children's book adaptation by MárcioTrigo, written in Portuguese, published by Editora Mirabolante and myself as the illustrator. The deadline for the book´s release was a bit tight so I took a simple approach with the style of the backgrounds. I have posted here 8 images(including the cover) of the 15 done in total for the book, which is being released this week throughout Brazil.The 17th Century look and the Humorous script made this project a lot of fun to work on.

O visual século 17 e o roteiro bem humorado fez com que este projeto fosse bem divertido de se trabalhar.

The picture above was the one that got the style approved; the deadline was a bit tight so I took a simple approach with the style of the backgrounds. I’m currently waiting for the green light from the Publisher to post the illustrations, should be sometime mid June, till then hope you enjoy this preview.

Red Dragon

                              
Hello all,

Red Dragon done for fun, no reference at all was used in this piece, wanted to do a toony dragon, the expression doesn´t help the look,but the proportions kind of work.

Cheers

Ortvak the gatekeeper

 

Hello to all, this is my latest piece of artwork, done for fun and for some practice.
His name is Ortvak and he guards the gate of some DarkLord´sevil relm,
his weapons are all clean because seriously, not many people mess with him.
Started out with a simple basemesh, not worrying about loops in the topology at all, separated the head, torso and legs for a lighter mesh, final sculpt has 8 subdivision levels on the head, 7 on the torso and 6 on the legs, the vest, waist strap and loin cloth were made with retopology. All the weapons and the bison skull were decimated down(also for a lighter final mesh). Exported a few images from Zbrush, using most as an overlay layer in Photoshop, also transforming most of them using: Filter-Artistic-Paint daubs, once final image achieved, a flattened copy was saved and duplicated twice, one layer with a little radial blur and the other with Paint daubs effect, to give it a more painted feeling to the final piece.

Artists who influence me are Aaron Sims and Scott Patton, really love their workflow.

Hope you like it, Cheers to all !
