My first attempt at painting portrait on iPad while I’m traveling for the holiday. As much as I love clip studio paint on the iPad, I don’t like monthly subscription and unfortunately they don’t even have an option for standalone licenses on the iPad. :(.  Anyway I decided to give procreate a try while on vacation since I’m mostly limited to making art on my iPad on trains and airplanes.  As usual, another game of thrones traditional portrait “Stannis”, hope you like it and let me know if you have any questions.

Early Wip:

So I'm posting this knowing full well  no one cares, but I think its cool so whatever...  :D   

We had a long weekend for Memorial day and I pretty much spent the whole thing painting these "deathguard" kill team models.  Did most of what you see here over the last 3 days.  I'm not expert miniature painter, just figuring this out and having fun doing it so now I'm sharing the work.

For those that know about deathguard, I'm not a fan of the tentacles and stuff, I like the idea of them being more like zombies.  So I intentionally removed most of the tentacle bits of models and resculpted with green stuff where needed.  Also used this "Soulblight Gravelord Deadwalker Zombie" models from age of Sigmar as a substitute for poxwalkers. (My version of poxwalkers and more representative of how I think they should look).

Taking a stab at painting a stylized portrait here.  Painted with clip studio paint on my ipad.

These are a few of the paintings I did over the holiday break.  All done with clipstudio paint and my ipad, mostly on trains and airplanes and waiting for said trains and airplanes.  I travel overseas a bunch and there is a lot of down time.  The holiday trip was from Seattle, to New York, then to Finland and back again.  I mentioned a few times previously, but I'm trying to paint most of the game of thrones characters as digital portraits to improve my painting abilities.  I've actually started painting stuff traditionally as well with oil paint which has been a lot of fun.  Hopefully later this year I'll feel confident enough to share some oil painting portraits (I'm still learning to use that material at this point).  

Thanks for looking!

Quick Painting/Study inspired by the style of oil painter Casey Baugh. (see last image).  I could have def been a bit more bold with the impressionism look but didn't want to get to hungup on that and keep this quick.  Plus, I know you all prefer pretty ladies over lord of the rings Orks. :D

More painting practice.  This time I decided to try my own take on Lurtz (the main ork villain) from Lord of the rings "Fellowship of the rings".
