Photoshop Technique Studies

More Photoshop

I've been doing character studies...and have learned some new techniques which make Photoshop much, MUCH, easier to use. Thanks Ben for helping me out!!!

Illustration Designs, etc.

Below are a few preliminary paintings and sketches for illustration ideas.

Cartoon Study

The Illustrators at the Creation Museum gave me a project requiring some cartoon characters. This one is of Noah studying some plans for building his ark. I sketched it out on paper...


And then penned it in with ink.

My first attempts at Photoshop

This is one of my first Photoshop "sketches". Once I had the basics painted, I add a sea creature into my ocean scene. I created a Plesiosaur. I never did finish the painting, but I got some good experience designing it.


I also did a painting of a cartoon rhino.


Next, the illustrators at the Creation Museum in Petersburg, KY, gave me a Photoshop project. It was a depiction of an archaeologist character named Herman Euticus.


In June I found time to experiment with another paint style, again using Photoshop. I created a scene of Noah's Flood using flat colors and various shapes. The design for the ark is based upon the latest ark models at the Creation Museum in KY.


I also created this Photoshop scene of Jonah and the Great Fish.
