After 8h/day doing detailed Concept art paintings I just wanted to depict something else (no subject in mind), with loose strokes and a real feel of painting. I really love ArtRage!

Final presentation board done for my Gnomon DVD.
Character Design Pipeline: Production Art & Research techniques with BARONTiERi.
Mainly done with Photoshop CS3 and a basic 3D model done using Autodesk Maya (CAT bot), the goal was to show the entire Steambot production process when creating characters for the videogame and Entertainment industry. Hope you'll like it! Thanks

This is an early concept art illustration for a personal project, painting done with PS-CS2 using some rock texture photos I took while travelling in Brasil and Mexico. I'll post some more as soon as I get a better idea of the art direction, C&C welcome.

This is an attempt to get away from my usual spaceships and SF environments, it seems like you're about to witness a secret ceremony... mainly PS-CS2 I used a very basic 3D mesh done using 3D Wings with no lighting, just to have a wide-angle point of view and a kind of "vertigo" feeling.

I couldn't really work well today, one of my friend bought the Star Wars concept art book and I felt very motivated for a speedpainting session, so here it is, just a big half-machine creature, with PS CS about an hour.

Spaceship flying over an asian-like landscape, unknown planet. More time than my usual speedpaintings, I will need to work on the ship a bit more and define the 3 circles on the background but hey!... tired.

Environment Design

This Environment came from the frustration of seeing spaceships and sci-fi structures in a dark, post-ap universe (including my artworks). I wanted to try with a fresh perspective. I did a speedpainting a while ago (~1h) of this beach, and I decided to work over for another 2h just adding little details and atmosphere... but as usual I wanted to keep a spontaneous feeling about the whole image.

An Exosuit flying above a landscape, I was trying to get a finished moody scenery in less than 3h, playing a lot with custom brushes and textures to create factories and buildings.
PS-CS.

Hello,
I reviewed some of the pages of spaceships and vehicle I fill during my spare time using custom brushes, and I came around this strange spider-like shape so I used it for a speedie. Started as an exterior environment I decided to finally close the composition with a door (thanks for your advise Sparth).

Hi,
during my spare time I fill a lot of pages of spaceships, just shapes and ideas, sometimes I look at them and pick one up in order to make an illustration. Here is a speedpainting (~2h) for fun, made with PS-CS and custom brushes. I'll post some more later. C&C welcome.

This night scenery was made using PS-CS custom brushes (architecture and spaceships). it was a lot of fun to do just playing around with the brushes to find some interesting shapes. The main part of the pic was done in about 1h, the rest is polishing details (another 2h) adding things without losing the spontaneity of the strokes.
