workshop

Looks like I'll have to once again start working on the Halloween picture. After a year of doing other stuff than art, I need time to practice...

As always I'm trying to make some annual art this Halloween as well.

There is this sketch: fav.me/d5jgumw


And some color study on that sketch: fav.me/d5jgu9e


Still workin' on it!

So I've started sketching on some ideas for this year's halloween picture. Some of them you can find on my posterous feed (spoike.posterous.com/). So far I've posted two sketches:

* spoike.posterous.com/sketch-fo…
* spoike.posterous.com/sketch-2-…

Still needs some work on the overall setting. There is just little time left so I have to make the time count. :^d (Though hard to do with Gears of War 3 distracting me).

Edit (Oct 23rd 2011):

Two more sketches uploaded to posterous (since it is easy for me to upload from my iDevices over there)
* spoike.posterous.com/wardrobe-…
* spoike.posterous.com/more-insa…

Also have made some color sketches, but you can comment it here on Deviant Art:

It's october? Oh noes! I have to make a picture! D:

I'm not dead, honestly! I'm working on the halloween picture now in case you didn't notice.

Working on these as I go on and listening mostly to the Persona 4 soundtrack (because it has the Best… Random battle rock music… Ever) or powergoat's Castlevania rock covers, because y'know… it is the month of Rocktober!

Still working on the rough spots before releasing the whole 3200 x 1200 pixel resolution glory together with cropped versions with those who haven't got dual screen setups. I'm planning for the following resolutions (with aspect ratios):

Dual screen
3840 x 1080  2 x HD TV (16:9)
3360 x 1050  2 x Wide (8:5, 16:10)
3200 x 1200  2 x Standard (4:3)

Single screen
1920 x 1080  Full HD TV 16:9
1680 x 1050  Wide 8:5 (16:10)     
1600 x 1200  Standard 4:3

It is done and can be found here:
