Concept Art for Lair and Prop

Experimenting With Colour

They're a bit extreme, but I was just playing about with colour in Photoshop for my lair's concept art. I am aiming to keep the vibrant, graphical style :)

UPDATE:
After speaking with Jordan, he suggested it would be best to keep the colours limited and not to apply the level of vibrancy to the whole lair otherwise it comes across as too fun and happy. I want a slightly more sinister feel as it is for a Master Criminal. It was also mentioned that I remove the kind of panel/desk object in the foreground as this is distracting from the focus and disrupts the sense of scale. In my next paintings I am going to start with much more dull colours and add elements of brightness and and glowing feel by using some tools and techniques that Jordan showed me, I think this will be more successful.

Inspirational Artist - Matt Gaser

MATT GASER

 I have chosen to look at concept artist Matt Gaser, his digital concept paintings that I have seen online are so interesting and inspiring. His website www.mattgaser.com takes you through his landscapes, projects, personal work, sketches, doodles, sculptures, biography and more; I really could spend hours looking at his work! 

In the ‘doodles’ section there are a range of basic developmental thumbnail style work, so just some quick ideas that he’s got down on a page as a starting point which shows that even the greatest digital paintings start off with the simplest quick pencil sketch. 

I feel that a lot of his ‘personal work’ has quite a whimsical / fantastical feel about it and just takes you to another world completely, I really admire his use of colour and his ideas in general.
He has worked for some really great companies such as Hallmark, Got Milk and Stormfront as well as working on some of the designs in the Star Wars films with Lucasfilm Animation. In his own time he does many personal projects and is starting to generate a range of merchandise.

I really would recommend a visit to his website... he has some fantastic stuff :)
