Two new works...

Two new works also available on deviantart (http://raphaell666.deviantart.com/). This tree was also used for the banner above but in monochrome form.

I hope you like them. Both those works are created with brushes provided by Min (http://www.minart.net/).

Cover001

This is the ninth version of the cover for IUBAR PROJECT first album "Above the Ground". More infornation about this brilliant project from Poland on facebook page:

Here you can see even more artworks created for this EP.  (Finally I can post my pictures below the text. Or maby I was doing something wrongly...)

First oil.

 

    This is my first oil painting. It took something around 4 hours and a half. As soon as I will leaarn how to do a decent gif, I will post a procedure.
    Starting to paint turned out to be very problematic to me. After watching a couple of youtube videos about painting with oils, I finally managed to do so called sketch with "burnt umber" paint. I was taking pictures of every major step during painting so I suppose they all will be posted sometime.
    Real problem for mr was getting the easel. Together with my wife we decided to make some ourselves but we obtained one either way. Soon I will post more photos of the place. I also ask for critical coments so I can improve somehow.

Poster001...

First poster I made for the upcomeing horseriding competition. Horse from the club's logo. Girl inspired by Banksy. :). Blogger prevents me from posting my image below the note so it will be up this time. They should do something about it. :/

Tuts...

Some useful tutorials I recall:

Soo many long films. Vary useful.

And a small knight piece:

Next big thing...

This is another wallpaper. 5 or 6 hours of work not including breaks. The final result like this is worth even twice that. I really learned a lot when producing image of this quality. Also enjoy new site design. I am about to make a slide gallery but i need to figure out how.

Another...

Another work inspired by works of Tom Scholes. I recently came across several brushes that resemble markers and tools used for MGS series by ashley wood. Some test pages on facebook Rafał Dryżałowski

Another Landscape 004...

Another landscape in CS5. This time i used more techniques i saw in Tom Scholes livestreams so the picture looks better and more polished. Working with colors is still a pain for me. Already ordered a book about it.

Ifail...

I failed to do any art every day. At least i sketch sometimes. This is one not finished. Everything here is unfinished. I like this snow a lot. It is made by motion blur.

002 december

I am trying to do anything. Today just this and i will try to make up fot the day 2.

001 december

I will try to put here works i do in december. I will try to do anything every day. Lets hope that works. For this piece I used a photo of a decomposed tree (slightly visible near the down right side) as well as some of my personal drawings of trees. Really proud of this one. The original is not square.

Ninja

Pitty that only those from poland will understand but... Whatever...
It says something like : "Quit College. Become NINJA"

Some recent work...

Here are some photoshop experiments with new brushes and techniques.

Red...

This is red to make your monitor not to process it properly. I wonder why it is like that. All electronic equipment has difficulties with it. I guess I will read about it more on the internet.

CA impact...

I had my regular CA session today and it inspired me to do some studies of my home fruits and vegetables. Here are some. I used new trial version of CS5 and it is really good. Especially those new features which help selecting objects and content awarenes like in gimp. If I forget to make a new layer for shadow it is now always possible to select everything and replace it. This tomato was inspired by that one by Bumskee from the Ps digitalpainting thread no 2.

As to my painting... I am to lazy to start practicing on canvas.

Real Ancestor 001...

This is a portrait of my ancestor. My grandpa to be precise. I made it by photoshop and then printed on a material that looks like canvas. This is actually a first picture of mine that will furnish someone's house. The portrait of an ancestor is also a great example of what I can do for everyone. I uploaded some pictures of canvas so you can see it's construction.

Time...

As you can probably see, I have no time to draw something new so I will post my older work. This is my personal vision of "the dark one" from the book "Metro 2033". I actually havent read the whole position but my imagination started creating those monsters already. Here you have. I a couple of days i will post a video log.

Droid Eclair...

I recently became an owner of a Nexus One phone. First thing I wanted to acheive is some personalization done. The second is making my N1 a digitalpainting tool. For this i downloaded a Doodledroid 2.6.1 version (I don't know if it runs only on the newest version of droid operating system (called Eclair)) app for my phone. This program is very good brush tool. Some of his disadvantages is a lack of zoom feature (which effects can be visible below) and that you can turn back only 5 steps (prev version had only one so it is better already). Here you have two first drawings made on my N1.

Aghh this zoom feature!!!

Our ancestors...

Portrait of an ancestor. I can make a portrait like this from a picture. I can also change it slightly or make it totally different (zombie vampire or supernatural like) My work will be done by photoshop and printed. To make it more like a real portrait you can use a cover paint (or let me do it). If you want one just email me for more information rafal_dryzalowski@op.pl

Portret przodka. Na pewno każdy chciałby mieć swojego na ścianie. Przy użyciu tabletu mogę stworzyć podobny ze zdjęcia jakiegoś z waszych przodków. Mogę też urozmaicić je o pewne szczegóły tak aby wyglądali blado, mieli nadludzkie moce, blade oczy itp. Po wydrukowaniu i ewentualnym pomalowaniu lakierem wygląda jak prawdziwy obraz. Co do szczegółów proszę pisać rafal_dryzalowski@op.pl

Boredom...

Something that came out in my new apartment when i finally brought tablet with me.
