Hansel and Gretel, and CDA

Here's some of my art from Kevin Chen's "Intro to Character Design in Animation" class at Concept Design Academy







Some pirates too!



Had a great time learning from Kevin and it was also great to meet new people from the industry. Definitely looking forward in taking another class there soon. Check out the school blog in the link above!

roseannetanportfolio.blogspot.com <<Portfolio page here!
switched the address from my art blog. I still haven't upload stuff yet, but still follow if you'd like!
Here's the current business card idea:

I'm still thinking if I should keep the back simple or not... 
UPDATE!

was told to make the info larger, and changed my ever-so-confusing email :P
It's not as saturated as it shows here. Let me know what you think! thanks!

Creature concept, quick paint!

Here's a quick-paint (about an hour+) of a creature concept I sketched out yesterday. wanted to try a different painting style in Photoshop and I have to say I like how it turned out. :D

Mermaids and Jellyfishes III: little progress

I haven't been progressing much due to procrastination. (I'm sorry!) But since it's been long since my last update, I figured I'd at least post what little stuff I've done.

Tail body and one fin done. Figured I'd finish the background first
before working on the other ones.
Starting to work on jellyfishes. Also added some warmth to her skin.

Right now most of the stuff I need to do requires transparency. I think  mask layering can help me with that. If you have any suggestions, let me know at the comments!

Mermaids and Jellyfishes II



WIP update!


added freckles,  removed pencil lineart on her face




Hair: done! (for now) want it to look "seaweed-ish", added base color for fins and tail.


Been conflicted on whether her skin needs more warmth to it or not. what do you think? Please comment below, thanks!

Mermaids and Jellyfishes


mermaid sketch
Originally uploaded by tan.art
I promised a good friend that I'd draw this for her. Currently a working process. I'm thinking of posting each step I finish for coloring and hopefully get some feedback too :) Please look forward to it!







UPDATE!
Here's what i have done at the moment, from 12am-4:30am... time got away from me...
Her skin done, details for her hair next. also thinking of leaving it as it is since
it gives it some whimsy... what do you think?
