 Ju-Ju-Bees + process gif. A sketch I did for a friend who was interested in what my early steps are for character paintings.

Played D&D for the first time the other day and decided i should draw up my character to get a good feel of who he is. I rolled a pretty awful charisma, so part of the goal was to visually develop how that manifests.

Welcome to Stone Trolls

Stone Trolled Drunk is a group of 2d and 3d artists. We have gotten this blog rolling out of a desire to share links to interesting art, tutorials, images, and to share our own work outside of work. While we all collectively may work at Turbine Games, this blog is not associated with them directly aside from a collective interest in art and interesting things.

To kick this off, here are a few interesting links that have been passed around recently.

Some really great landscape painting tutorials by concept artist Shaddy Safadi:
