House v Death Cat, Round 2

Version 2, colored using a brush I created.

House v Death Cat

This is just something I did as a lark. I'm thinking of using it for an assignment, but the assignment involves creating your own brush in Corel Painter and I didn't do that for this piece. It's Smooth Ink Pen and Dull Conte, but I didn't change anything special about the brushes, except size a little.


I'll post the second version of this when I get it done. I'm thinking of doing a watercolorish brush, but I might go with something more opaque, something more saturated. The last couple of images I've created have been low saturation, which I guess I'm finding interesting right now.

Because I was Bored

I thought I'd draw something that I didn't have much invested in and would relax me. I don't know how relaxed I feel right now, but this is the result of a fifteen minute drawing spree. I traced over a random image I pulled from Google images and added some color, all done in Corel Painter. I think I should do this more often.

Spaceman - actually finished


No, really, this time I'm done.

Thom Yorke, Man of Awesome

This is for an exercise using the Cloning brushes in Corel painter. It's Thom Yorker, man of awesome and lead singer of Radiohead. Much time was spent on this image. I loved every second of it.


This is also Thom Yorke. You may notice that it's the same portrait, but looks different. I rejected it for turning in, but still wanted to share it. He looks kind of insaner in this portrait, which amuses me greatly. It's also much starker than the other one, I think because of all the aggressive brush strokes.

Random comic

I drew this because I was bored; it was inspired by Carl Sagan's quote: "In order to bake an apple pie from scratch, first you must create the Universe." (Paraphrased, as I'm too lazy to look the exact quote up - if anyone is interested, it's from the series Cosmos.)

Feynman - portrait



I felt like drawing someone's portrait today, so I went with Richard Feynman. This was made in Corel Painter using the 2B Pencil and Soft Pointed Blender. I took the image off of "Six Not-So-Easy Pieces."
