Steve Huston lecture notes

Recently ran across some of Steve Huston lecture videos, so I decided to follow them. These are my notes and practices from his first lecture.

Happy Birthday, Ryan.

Birthday gift for my buddy Ryan.

Typhon - Initial Character Concept

 

Quick character concept for a Ragnarok Online custom MVP.
Typhon, the crazy storm mage.
About an hour in Painter 11

Link portrait

Cleaned up my realistic Link sketch and turned it into a portrait.
The background is an attempt at making something other than plain white.
About 4 hours in PSCS5

Hands

Frickin' hands, man! What do they even do!?
Used my left hand as reference.

Flight Rising - Guardian Dragon sketch

Sketch of a Guardian dragon from Flight Rising
My wife got me into it, and I've been having fun with it, so why not?
About 3 hours, PSCS5.

Cap'n Murrica!

Political commentary, ho!

Realistic Zelda?

Same as my Link piece, a more realistic take on princess Zelda.
I don't really know what to do with her hands yet.
