“Hi. My name is Nicolas Collings. I was born in 1983 and I currently live in Belgium. I made this model for the challenge “Take2: Celebrity Head Sculpt” at subdivisionmodeling.com. This was my first real attempt at doing a digital double so I learnt a lot doing this challenge. I completed this piece in one week, working approximately 2 hours every evening after working-days. The week-end before I started this model, I had watched “Man on Fire”, one of my favourite movies. Denzel Washington is just amazing in it. That’s why I decided to choose him as my celebrity head.”
Making of Ingrid Bergman
“At the age of 17, Ingrid Bergman auditioned for and was accepted to the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm. During her first summer break, she was hired at a Swedish film studio, which consequently led to her leaving the Royal Dramatic Theater to work in films full time, after having attended for only one year. At the age of 21, she married a dentist, Petter Lindstr’m (who would later become a neurosurgeon). In 1938, she gave birth to a daughter.”
How to Change the Mood of the Scene
“Valentine’s Day is near, so why don’t change the girlfriend image in a more romantic mood. So now we will change the mood of the existing photo in Photoshop.”
Making of Frodo
“Hello I am Vishal Pawar and I live in the city of Mumbai (India) and at the time of writing this I am working as CG Artist for Waterford Institute India. I am a BFA graduate from L.S.Raheja School of Art Mumbai. I do both 3D and 2D, here are list of artists like Craig Mullins and Dusso (Yanick Dusseault) who always inspire me, and Peter Jackson’s Lord of The Rings trilogy has been a very big inspiration for me every frame of the movie is a visual masterpiece. Well that was all about me, so now lets kick start with the tutorial. “Making of Frodo” I assume you guys might be familiar with Adobe Photoshop.”
Making of Tainted
“Ever since I’ve known about the character, I’ve always wanted to paint the Pierrot. There’s something really vulnerable and tragic about him that makes him so endearing – always a good subject for a painting!”
Making of Elizabeth Tudor
“My intentions for creating this image were solely to improve my digital painting technique, and to test my patience. I decided to use an inspiring stock photograph I found on www.deviantart.com.”
Making of Song Hye Kyo in 2D
“Hello Readers, I use a blue pencil to sketch out the basic shapes of the image. At this stage, I do not worry about how perfect the drawing is. I just want to quickly sketch out the subject with a light touch. The last thing I do is block in the areas of shadow. This step in the process shouldn’t take more than 5-10 minutes. If it does, it it possible that you are trying to finish the painting before you even begin. Keep your stokes fluid and free. You can always paint over any stray lines later.”
Making of Black Bashi – Bazouk
“In this tutorial, I will go about how I painted a Master Copy of Gerome Jean Leon’s “Black Bashi-Bazouk”. As an artist, I feel like I can learn a lot by doing studies of the works of Old Masters, especially in terms of color. It’s important to note that when you’re doing Master studies, you shouldn’t just mindlessly copy a painting; Put thought into what you’re doing – ask yourself why did this artist choose this color as opposed to another, and so forth.”
Spring Break
“Usually we soften portraits, but not this time. We are going to crack it up. Big time..”
Making of Portrait of Nathan
