[Rainer's Art Place]

Rainier · 27th May 2009, 19:57

Since I'm trying out as a Concept Artist, I decided I could show off a bit of my work here

so here comes

---

A digital painting I made a little while ago, not really MO related but since I just started drawing again (thanks for internship in a lousy agency, sucking my inspiration), I thought it would be a nice start.

Spiritus · 27th May 2009, 20:04

This is a good concept, simple and clean. Reminds me a fairy tale. Keep the good work.

rackam77 · 27th May 2009, 20:10

Really good.

DarkStrider · 27th May 2009, 20:22

The picture is really beautiful , the color selection and the moon make it dim but very peacefull. Like it .

Irishdrunk · 27th May 2009, 20:32

That's very awesome. I'm such a sucker for glowing shrooms

Rainier · 28th May 2009, 22:32

Thanks for the kind comments

more to come this week end I hope !

Zigkirby · 28th May 2009, 23:22

That firefly looks brutal.

Keltic · 29th May 2009, 18:13

Very nice work Rainer!

Rainier · 29th May 2009, 19:34

While i'm Working on it, here's something to patient, that I haven't actually really shown around

it's a starting concept for a dragon (was lazy so I didn't colour it. I went for the details instead.) I should make it in it's whole day and compare sizes with a normal human

Far from being my best (and it's unfinished) but I really liked working on the details

Mr Winter · 29th May 2009, 20:05

Yo, what program do you use to make all this digital art?

Rainier · 29th May 2009, 20:59

I use Photoshop CS3 atm

Mitanius · 29th May 2009, 21:09

Awsome dragon - looking forward to when its all coloured etc :P

Mr Winter · 29th May 2009, 21:27

Do you take requests?

Can you make something like this?

Bastet · 30th May 2009, 05:59

Looks good, as a fellow artist I recommend working on getting into some more detail in the water, you've done a great job adding detail other places, but you have to stay consistent through out so that the mind doesn't get distracted.

The composition is nice, but i'm not sure what I should be looking at specifically, that big firefly could be a nice object but compositionally it could go in a place that gets more attention so you're drawn to it more!

Keep it up.

Betwixt Souls · 30th May 2009, 06:16

Really nice work...

DarkStrider · 30th May 2009, 09:16

Looks nice so far.

Rainier · 30th May 2009, 10:25

Thanks a lot for the comments Bastet

those like these I seek the most !

And I could, Mr Winter, though I don't really see what it is..a kneeing knight holding a sword and exploding with light ? =p

Mr Winter · 31st May 2009, 00:08

It's tyrael from Daiblo 2, one of the most badass characters ever made.

Blizzard.com/diablo3

Check him out when hes breathing!

Zrug · 31st May 2009, 05:10

neat art, really like the dragon

I've attempted my hand at drawing, but every time i get kinda disappointed at my own work and then loose interest, oh well

Rainier · 31st May 2009, 12:02

Okay, saw the guy

interesting enough ! I'll try to draw him in a little while

BlindMonkey · 31st May 2009, 12:06

Great work. I especially love the first picture from the concept art perspective because it's not too noisy. When your trying to get a concept or idea across I always thought it was best to capture the main themes as simply and cleanly as possible - If you have another idea for the same area, then do two pictures.

Fantastic stuff mate.

Angrybarrel · 31st May 2009, 21:33

Great stuff.

Kel · 7th June 2009, 05:16

Make Mortal Online oriented paintings! other then that - great work!

Rainier · 26th June 2009, 02:34

New one here for you folks. Hope you'll like it ! After many hours and right on time before the delay, I managed to finish this one...damn I can finally get some sleep now

ALSO DON'T FORGET TO LOOK OUT FOR MY PROPAGANDA !

Stink Fist · 26th June 2009, 02:51

Another beautiful piece of work Busard, now go to sleep!

kintaro_oe · 26th June 2009, 08:42

Very very nice!!

Rainier · 27th June 2009, 17:23

I'm maybe thinking of starting a comic (most likely when the game/beta starts for me), but for now I don't have much of a scenario

Monfols · 27th June 2009, 17:32

Maybe you could make about MO a comic about a guy who lives in a little village from the kallard (or what race you like) and that he is learning about the cruelness of the world with a funnt touch.
Or make a comic about leprecauns XD

VinnieSP · 27th June 2009, 17:38

Really impressive!

Rainier · 28th June 2009, 15:03

So here's a quick concept (not really elaborated, took me 30 mintues) for the main character of a possible upcoming MO comic. And I have a good story too

Story: A very cynic and sarcastic artist (the character above) who's living in a huge tindremene city is drowning in boredom and lousy orders as he loses inspiration, when one day a friend of his suggests an unusual idea to get his motivation back: follow him to wars with all his drawing materials.

He then sets sails for a series of events, finding himself into battles, drawing and studying the politics of the world around him.

Aurastorm · 28th June 2009, 18:15

Looks really nice, but maybe it's just me when i say that it's a little bit blurry, but it's still excellent either way

Nah you're right. I really did it too fast, just to have a basic idea.

I dunno though if the comic could be done in digital painting, since it takes a tremendous amount of time to finish one panel.

Rainier · 27th August 2009, 20:54

So hey, i'm back here !

Here's my latest drawing, made it for a friend of mine after I gave her a first one that was absolutely fucking terrible.

Trying also some new colorisations. Not too shabby but I still have problems with my contrasts. Well, more drawings are on the way to try out anyway.

Kel · 27th August 2009, 20:57

Looks amazing..what's your day job anyway?

Rainier · 27th August 2009, 21:01

For now, i'm a student in Multimedia Design...not too fond on such studies, working for the advertisement market is something I want to avoid at all cost

.

I also do some freelance illustration for now (but can't get a profit from it for now, don't have that many clients that are willing to pay :/ ), and try to progress so I can get in the gaming industry as an artist but still has some road to do to get to that objective.

Kel · 27th August 2009, 21:09

You got skill..one little thing that kind of bothers me about the last pic - her hand is kind of weird looking ( a little bit thiner would look better imo)..is she a fatty? cause her proportions tell me she is..and now for the real question: if she's kind of plump, how did she get up there? :|

Rainier · 27th August 2009, 21:14

Ha, was expecting that one tbh ! =P
Nah she's no fatty, though I made her more bigboned that I expected. The main problem is because of the high contrast and pose, there are some body parts that go unseen of difformed I guess.

I'd say she's pretty built up instead. :| (though still need some work on female anatomy)

I would troll you so hard right now..but I like what I've seen in this thread so I won't.

Rainier · 27th August 2009, 21:27

FFFUUUUUU-- ...

I'd say I even deserve it..

Took the words out of my mouth.

Excellent job Rainier, Keep up the good work.

I'd love to see more landscapes like this.

PS: I know EXACTLY what you mean about work. I'm currently having a bit of that problem myself.
