My BFA Show 2011

2011-07-08T01:26:00.000-07:00

This isn't a complete list, once I get around to saving smaller files for the web I will upload the rest. In the meantime, Enjoy~ Sorry I had to size them down considerably (down to like 10% of the original size) so now you cant see some of the fun details, but what can you do right?

BFA 2011 - Teasers

2011-07-03T23:35:00.000-07:00

Wow, I cant believe that I am only 2 days away from hanging my BFA and 4 from being officially finished. What a ride. For those of you in the area, I would love to have you come see the display I will be hanging in the Sky-walk between the MC and the McKay Library. The BFA Reception is at 7pm on Thursday July 7th 2011. I will have the pleasure of hanging with my friend Ray, who will be across from me. There are so many talented people this year, and I think you will enjoy it. I will upload pictures of the completed project once I finish. In the meantime here are some teaser images:

Messing Around More

Broken

2010-09-21T23:24:00.000-07:00

Alas, after my sculpture stayed far too long in the bag and began to mold, I broke her head off. Doh! However it made for a fun photo shoot.

Tactics of War - Thompson

2010-09-09T21:55:00.000-07:00

Another Old one, and yes, its tiny. These will only be displayed at about 400px max in either dimension. I created this one before I decided I wanted to print some of them :)

Tactics of War - M1 Garand

2010-09-09T21:22:00.000-07:00

I know this one is older, but I updated the background to conform to the style guidelines.

Tactics of War - German M24

2010-09-08T00:32:00.000-07:00

Finished M29 Stielhandgranate. Sorry I'm feeling lazy so I didn't do anything in the background. Also note, blogger re sampled the image so it is substantially smaller/lower resolution. It was created at 11" x 17" at 300dpi. So you wont really get the full effect of details unless you see the print in person.

NOTE: I have the high res version here: http://www.deviantart.com/download/178503208/tactics_of_war___m29_grenade_by_xavisavvy-d2y9xyg.jpg

Here is an update on some of the weapons I am working on for Tactics of War

Something Under the Bed

2010-05-18T03:30:00.000-07:00

I think it looks better in print, but here it is one of my latest.

Viking WIP

2010-03-11T15:01:00.000-08:00

Little John Saves the Three Youths

2009-12-16T03:32:00.000-08:00

Wow, I am surprisingly awake and it is 4:21am. This illustration depicts an adventure Little John embarks on, as written by Howard Pyle. Line-art and shading done traditionally with Bic Pen and Prismacolor warm Grey markers. Hope you like it. I have spent tonight painting. I started this painting at six o clock pm yesterday, it is now 4:14 am. Almost 12 straight hours of painting. my butt is screaming right about now. haha anyway the mega sugared kool-aid is wearing off and I am going to go to bed. I will probably make revisions, but it is what I have for now.

Ship Construct 08

2009-11-29T12:29:00.000-08:00

This is about as much as I want to put into it for now, I will probably pick it up again in a few months.

Wow I'm beginning to feel the effects of staying up late...

2009-11-11T01:50:00.000-08:00

I wish I could get rid of the cell spacing on here, but until I have time to code the whole blog you will have to full-view to check it out. I am working on the environment and painting of the characters. The line art/characters belong to Adam Sevy as a part of a collab we are working on. Let me know what you think. Til then I am going to take a quick nap since there is still more to paint before the night is over.

Blue Boar Inn Final Revision (for now)

2009-10-28T23:08:00.000-07:00

Here are the two finished color studies I did. I might take another stab at the trees at a later time, but for now this is all the time I can spare on it this semester. Enjoy~

Hello world!~

2009-08-29T22:51:00.000-07:00

Here is some work I have been toying with lately, I will get more up when I get the chance.

(We are still moving in)

I would suggest clicking on the pictures to get a higher quality,

the downsizing does a number on quality.
