Queen Portraits


Queen Portraits, originally uploaded by Ntkufreak.

It's back to thesis!

Starting to really visualize the queen. Not all of these are as different from one another as perhaps they should be, but it was still a good exercise. Used reference for a few of them in an attempt to break out of my habits.

Facebook friends, if you recognize yourself.... I'm sorry. LOL

Happy New Years'!

Already my final semester in school?! Wow.

I've had a great winter and am feeling refreshed, ready for the final sprint! Thanks to everyone who's been following me. I've EVEN done some work while here at home. I will be returning to Baltimore tomorrow, so with any luck I'll have something to scan in and show.

Hope everyone else had a good holiday!

Thesis: Architecture


Thesis: Architecture, originally uploaded by Ntkufreak.

The last of the three landscape paintings. Not quite as strong as the other two, IMO, but I still like it... and it still marks an improvement I think :)

Onward with finals!!

Finished Landscapes... finally!




The architectural one is still on the way, but for now these two are fini. Took long enough! :)

Vibhishana Movement Study





Movement study, some cyborg-zombie heads for underneath the headwrap, and because I was curious I animated the movement study very quickly in Photoshop... and thought it looked kind of cool, so posted it. I think it also better illustrates exactly what the movement is -- even if it's not very useful beyond that!

Finished? And More WIP Landscapes

These two are more progress on the landscapes -- the second of which I haven't posted yet, just some ideas for the architecture and look of the Glass Coffin city, though we don't see it much.





And then this painting might be just about done. Finally!
