[english - deutsch unten]

The final four images from the Kraftpaper series, sixteen altogether. They will be available as originals, of course, and I think the best print option is one gigantic piece with all of them in it - I'll let you know how that works out. For now, it's very satisfying to see so many piecs together, makes me feel like I actually got something done for a change ;)

On the fingertips. "Eine Geschichte aus den Fingern saugen", to suck a story from their fingers, is something journalists are accused of when they blow boring news out of proportion.
Wrack your brains. "Kopfzerbrechen", to break one's head, is a lack of ideas or options how to handle a situation.
Butterflies. Butterflies in the stomach are universal for those in love, it seems.
Buttoned up. And I finish off with a bilingual expression. Voilà!


[deutsch]

Die letzten vier Bilder aus der Kraftpaper-Serie, sechzehn alle zusammen. Natürlich stehen die Originale zum Verkauf, und ich denke die beste Druckoption ist alle auf einem riesigen Stück zu haben - ich lass' Euch wissen ob das funktioniert. Jetzt gerade ist es sehr zufriedenstellend, alle sechzehn nebeneinaner zu sehen, als ob ich tatsächlich mal was geschafft hätte ;)

Aus den Fingern. Den Ausdruck "sich eine Geschichte aus den Fingern saugen" fand ich immer beeindruckend.
Kopfzerbrechen. Selbsterklärend.
Schmetterlinge im Bauch. Und überall sonst.
Zugeknöpft. Zum Schluss noch ein Ausdruck der auf Englisch genauso funktioniert. Fertig!

I've long admired the techniques of Android Jones' colourful abstract portraits and tried something like it myself. I don't yet have Painter 12, which has mirror features - those would have been handy - but did this in Painter 11 with a load of tools I don't always use. I spent the entire morning creating new papers, patterns, and brush features to use - papers are really great to get texture in! I had actually wanted to show a progress .gif of a character painting I did in this style, but it turned out to be several MBs big, so I can't put it here :( You can still see the picture in my deviantart gallery. I used a lot of different brushes here. I'v been thinking about sharing some of my brushes, or brush settings I found useful; I'm not sure if it isn't the particular way I handle them though, that gets me my results. Any thoughts?

Genius Loci races: Garren

Image
The lizard people of Kitas are called garren, or singular gar. Don't be irritated by the race template, they normally wear clothes. Their long tail is flexible, if clumsy, and can be used as a weapon, mostly they drag it on the ground. Smaller body parts like the tail or fingers can be grown back, although it takes several months. Garren can have practically any colour and pattern; they can change it by eating certain foods, and after a little while they change in appearance. The patterns are never quite certain. The crest is covered in soft thin scales and flexible between stabilizing spikes. Garren have quick reflexes and lots of stamina; since they are also cold-blooded, they prefer the southern region and are most common in northern Lozir, but can be found anywhere. Psychologically, garren are impulsive and usually the first to act. They tend towards polarized views; because of the trouble the combination can get them in garren are often found in voice houses getting counsel b...

Radseri Spiritfriend

Image
A character illustration oo sorts - Radseri is the guy happily floating there held by the spirit's tentacle/tail-thingy. It's for my world Genius Loci, whose development you can see on my worldbuilding blog starmakersgaze.blogspot.com . I made the tail segments for the two larger spirits in Sculptris and painted largely in Painter.
