Long claws

Following, the dinosaur theme of my last sculpt entitled Long legs is another idea I was keen to explore  entitled Long claws - not a particularly original name folks!

Skinny legs

 
I have a Tyrannosaurus Rex model on my desk in work which I'd bought some time last year. So, with a couple of hours spare today it inspired me to sculpt 'Skinny legs'. ZBrush + Photoshop

Supers / Identities

Once again it's all about Superhero's in the cinema folks. Retro Iron Man, Hulk & Fantastic Four identity concepts.

Roy Batty / Blade Runner

With the announcement that British director Sir Ridley Scott is to make a new instalment of his 1982 cult sci-fi Blade Runner, I decided to watch it last night for the first time in a while. Like a good bottle of wine Syd Mead’s production design just keeps getting better with age. Future (Perfect) an upcoming exhibition at BravinLee Programs in New York is showcasing the work of Concept designer Syd Mead. So, inspired by the film I decided to paint the leader of the replicants ‘Roy Batty’ played by Rutger Hauer – Great Sci-Fi stuff!

Watermark Monster

I stumbled across this unusual image today, It's a photo of a watermark I took it some time ago that reminded me of a dragon - will design a creature based on this one day.

Big Greeny

It's been ages since I've been able to doodle a design or even write a new post for my blog since Big Picture Studio has been up and running. To dip my toe back in the water I decided to sculpt the head of a kick-ass big green lizard - It's good to be back!
