X-23 WIP

Here is another update of the WIP of the X-23 print I'm working on. Not much except for more painting. And trying to learn a bit more of digital painting. So far loving the progress of how this is going. I said I was going to try and finish it, I hope to have it done in the next few days.

Current WIP


Hey all,

Here's another update, something I've been working on the last day or so. I've never done a step by step thing for my stuff, and I wanted to put one together to for my benefit and to show how I do the things I do. This character is X-23 from Marvel comics, who is basically Wolverine's daughter, whom is also cloned from his dna. I hope you like how the progress is going, I plan on finish the painting some time over the weekend. Or try to anyways. Well hope you enjoy it.

Cheers,

Johnny.

Guess, I'll make it up for doing two posts today. But, I don't really know what I was thinking on this one...Future comic book idea? Quite possibly!



Post # 88 - May 25, 2010

It's a late post from just a few hours ago, didn't get a chance to get to a scanner in time. Well I've been meaning to do a Yoda for a long time. Here it is.

Okay, slowly starting to ramp up again. So this Sunday's theme was one I decided, and it was to choose your favourite scene from any Disney movie. So I chose to do a scene in Lilo and Stitch where Stitch saw how much fun they were having on the surfboard and then no one was paying attention to him because he hindered the fun the family were having, and then realizing it was fun wanting to go back out to the ocean to ride on the tides again. Done with pencil crayon this time as I was my girlfriends Uncles place and borrowed her little cousins pencil crayons to do it. I hope you like!

So I'm jumping back to this daily blog thing. But I've decided to do some more 3D work as well. So my friend Gerald Garcia has these 'Jelly Beaners' characters he drew up yesterday and I really liked how they looked. So I decided to do the one in 3D. I modeled a bit of it today and will continue as I keep up with the daily blogs and posts. This only took me a couple of hours. Comments are always welcome.

Also here's another one of my coloured pieces I did for the show.

Sorry for the lack of posts, April was a very busy month for me. I had the Calgary Expo happen a couple of weeks ago and I was prepping for that. I just recently moved back to my hometown and trying to find my way again. Well other than that thanks for carrying on with me. Here's one of the prints I did for the show, this one isn't my favorite, but I'm really starting to enjoy colouring my pieces now. I hope you enjoy and feel free to comment.

Iron Man, inked. I don't know if I'll be posting a whole lot this weekend, doing a whole lot of packing. So the streak of consecutive posts may come to an end...For a bit...We'll see. For now enjoy the ol' shell head.

This weeks challenge was "Robots in disguise" - So here's my take.

Here's Captain America again. This one is turning out a lot better - I definitely like this one and where it's going. Also I'd like to announce that my website is finally up check it out. http://www.johnnyluu.ca

Post # 67 - Mar 18/2010

Another attempt at Captain America...I feel I can't really get an appropriate vision of him. I will try again until I get it right! It's definitely on the right track!

Starting to love seeing my stuff coloured. I still have lots to learn about digital colouring but it's a wonderful learning experience. So today's post isn't anything new, just an update on Wonder Woman.

Wednesday, March 17, 2010

Post # 65 - Mar 16/2010

Here's a w.i.p of the Wonder Woman. Just basic tones, for the time being. Updates to come.

Sunday's theme is Alice in wonderland. I did a rendition of Alice with Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. Something very different for me. I like it! Check out my friend Gerald who also did a rendition of the wonderland twins, very cool indeed.

Down to the wire tonight, doing a little packing...Hope you likey.

I wanted to redo the Thor I did - and here it is. I like it a lot better than before. But then I realized his arms are too short...Going to have to do another one to get the look I want. And I think my scanner needs a quick clean.

Thursday, March 11, 2010

Post # 60 - Mar11/2010

Another Iron Man sketch. Need to refine him a bit more...Hmmmm....

Wednesday, March 10, 2010

Post # 59 - Mar 10/2010

I could never really capture Captain America. I liked how this one came out.

Post # 58 - Mar 09/2010

Quick one, can't really make Thor come to life...

Tuesday, March 9, 2010

Post # 57 Mar 08/2010

You guys have seen this one, but I re-did it as I wasn't too keen on the original sketch. I like this one ten times better. ALSO...This is my 100th post overall in my blog history! I was hoping to something a bit more special but alas was not meant to be. =P Well thanks for following!

So Sunday's theme was to do a character from your favourite book. So I did a character named Isabelle, from the author Cassandra Clare who did 'The Mortal Instruments' trilogy - Which is a lot like Buffy/Underworld/LOTR. She's a character that belongs to a group called Shadowhunters and they mark themselves with rune symbols that help them in hunting vampires, werewolves and demons. So here's my take on this character.

Post # 55 - Mar 06/2010

A really quick one today...Had to fight to be in the mood today. Overall though the result isn't so bad. I liked how this one is starting to come together.

Friday, March 5, 2010

Post # 54 - Mar 05/2010

I've got a lot of work on my plate, here's one from awhile back that I liked and never posted. Not sure why...The scan again, I tried to clean it up, but it left a desired effect. I think it looks really good this why.

Drawing like crazy, drawing like mad. Momentum is running rampant - And still staying positive!

Post # 51 - Mar 02/2010

Here's an updated pic of the Wonder woman I did, yesterday. I inked it as you can see =P. Will be colouring this as the days go by. Thanks for watching.
