Ah don't mind my badly phrased compliment. I admire your photography a lot as well. But I just love your painting style sooo much. It feels so 'crisp' for a lack of a better word.

Thank you. I kinda understood. I think it's good to mess about in different mediums generally. Photography has taught me to be more aware of light and composition which I use when I paint.

Very good! I'm still struggling with the godforsaken Illustrator assignments. Soooo strenuous. Should be painting the zodiac illustrations based on Alphonse Mucha's style for Wednesday, but the short amount of time left makes me panic. How do you dish out 3 digital paintings in 4 days?

You turn off intharwebz and use 1.33 days per painting and start with the first one. Think industrial and simplify stuff. Do all the sketching for all the four pieces before you start with the lineart. Do all of that before you start on the colouring and so on. Noobs rely on inspiration and most inspiration comes while you work anyway. It's a job so go about it as a job and don't expect to have fun.


... or do it some other way.

I hope I didn't come across as some Mr know-it-all, but with these things people tend to procrastinate. I've done my fair share of that myself, so I know it all to well.

Oh procrastinating is exactly what I'm doing right now. And stress is kicking in, cause I have very little time left. Freak out!

Sadly there is no way around it. You have to work and work is the only way to get rid of the stress.

Holy crap, Ben, this is like...perfect timing. I've been replaying Dark Corners of the Earth and re-reading lots of HPL stories lately, and I saw the thumbnail of this and thought it was pretty and opened it up and it was like you were reading my mind
