Jigsaw Doll - "SAW"

I worked on this guy for a week and a half or so for a friend's Halloween party. The idea being to put it on the entrance to greet people and help people to get into the mood for the party.
I' like to take a moment to say that although I gave the idea for this and volunteered to do it, I absolutely hate this doll. I find the movies boring and discussing, and therefore this doll, being a symbol of the saga, is something I had little fun doing. Why did I make it? Because I thought I could make it cool and it would help decorate this friend's house, a friend that was taking great care in making everyone have an awesome time at his house for not reason other than make people happy. I wanted to help as much as possible to such noble goal, and I did more stuff, but I cannot post it here because it would include pictures of his house.

I'll post later a small tutorial of how I did this doll. However, let me tell you I think it could have been done much better. I had little time and as I said I hated this doll since the beginning.

Banshee - "Starcraft II"

I know this is more of a helicopter... plane-ish, aircraft machine, but I included it in the starships category because Starcraft doesn't always make it particularly easy to tell when you're in space and when on a place with atmosphere. I've always wanted to draw this, since I frist saw it. It looks amazing and it was a blast to draw it. This time my approach wasn't to make it neat, but the opposite. I went with dirty lines, played around with the pen as much as I could... and I love the end result, specially taking into account this drawing is based on a papercraft model someone posted on the internet and not a picture of the computer design.
I absolutely love this aircraft.

Turian Cruiser - "Mass Effect"

I started playing Mass Effect like a year ago, but I had to quit because I had to work on my final degree project. The first and second game were given to me by one of my best friends as a present, and a lot of people has told me I should play them because they're awesome. So I'll go back to them soon.
In the meanwhile, this is the ship a friend who asked me for the drawing of a ship for his room picked... I guess because he really likes Mass Effect.
For this I tried to take advantages of the dark shadows and use the straight lines to give that geometrical look. It's quite an interesting-looking ship. So when I first saw it I had to draw it. My friend seemed to like it a lot when I gave it to him.

Andromeda Ascendant - "Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda"

I tried watching this show, but it was too corny for me. I don't know the whole set was pretty lame and I couldn't see past the first few episodes because I couldn't take it knowing it was supposed to come from the same person who had created Star Trek, although Roddenberry was long dead when this show came out. So I guess maybe he was the one missing from the spirit of this show. I don't know. The ship looked pretty awesome though. So I decided to give it a try, although I have to admit half the time I was just drawing lines and shadows not really knowing what I was doing.

Cylon Ship - "Battlestar Galactica"

I remember watching the first season of this show without the tv movie that comes before it. It was incredibly confusing, but it looked interesting. At the time I had no means to watch the rest of the seasons, or the pilot for that matter, and forgot about it. Now that I had the change I decided to try drawing this cool-looking ships, and it was a blast. I tried to use the same approach as with planes and try to make it look neat.

Starships coming up

Hey! A couple of months ago I was asked by a friend to do a starship to put on his wall to help decorating his room. Because he didn't ask for a specific ship, and past experiences has whown me not to go too big on projects like this with people I don't know too much, I decided to do four different ships and let him choose the one he wanted while I would keep the other three to decorate my room.
This game me the perfect excuse to draw some stuff I've always wanted to draw, have a project that would occupy my afternoons and go back to my drawing. So it was a great experience. I don't have a scanner here, so sadly the pictures I'll upload have a bad quality, but I'll be posting the ships I drew for him.
I had a great time doing them, and I hope you guys enjoy them as well =)

Color Study: Green Eyes

Here it's a small study of three different sets of green eyes. Marvelous combinations of green, blue, brown and yellow make them so unique.
The people I used as models were:
Sharbat Gula (National Geographic Magazine’s cover)
Jensen Ackles (Known from “Supernatural”)
Angelina Jolie (First known by me when I saw her in “Lara Croft”)

I'd like to do something like this for other eye colors, but we'll see
