W'up guys! Got really bored this weekend, so I snapped a pic of myself with my cell cam and spiced it up a bit. Not the most original theme perhaps, but it sure makes my mediocre face look more interesting.
Used the photo as a plate, but 99,9% is painted over. Took me about two days.]]> Mon, 11 Aug 2008 10:50:06 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/655869

Hello my friends!

Time for another piece from speedpaint.. land. Used a few photos for texturing and spent ~3h on this. I thought I'd try and settle with 1h at first, but I wanted to give it some extra details. Hope you like it!

Cheers!]]> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 20:04:41 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/646825

The guys was playing around with these wall-e robots at the office, which gave me the idea for this piece. I'm soo looking forward to the movie and I hope you'll enjoy this little tribute. ~4h Cheers!]]> Wed, 25 Jun 2008 22:02:27 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/636389

This is a little longer speed, around 3-4h. Tried to mix together this ugly part of a city with some nice colors and greenery. Hope you like it!]]> Wed, 28 May 2008 18:16:25 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/635433

I need to update my CGportfolio more often dammit.. I made a simple 3D plate for this one, and used a bunch of refs for texturing (gotta love cgtextures!). ~11-13h iirc. The slime could've used some more work, but it was a last minute addition. Supposed to represent some sort of alien presence but.. oh well, hope you like it anyways. Cheers!]]> Mon, 26 May 2008 08:53:19 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/623412

Hi gang! This is my longest mattepaint ever, around 15h so I'm a bit nervous about how I managed to stay on track and keeping it focused and whatnot. I've been doing speedpaints for the past several months so it felt really odd to spend some time on a piece like this.
Original size is 4300x2900. I hope you like guys!]]> Mon, 21 Apr 2008 15:19:59 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/619162

Hello again my friends, time for a new speedie! 3,5h spent on this, had some probs getting started but I think it turned out pretty well in the end. The plane is a.. very fictional nazi aircraft Hope you like it!]]> Thu, 10 Apr 2008 11:22:12 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/616360

Did this one first thing when I woke up today, dunno if it was a scenario from some dream I had fresh in mind or something but the motive just came to me. Took me about ~2,5h, since I was in a hurry.
Anyways, I don't think I have to explain the scenario further. Hope you like it guys, cheers!]]> Thu, 03 Apr 2008 01:38:49 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/603469

I've really been practicing on my speed lately and I guess this is sort of a result of that. This one took about 1h, no ref used. Some desert war, man vs robots and all the usual stuff.. Hope you like it!]]> Mon, 03 Mar 2008 17:31:34 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/602300

A speedpaint of my slightly depressing vision of what future NYC might look like. I really wanted to grasp the feel of a hot summers day in the gettho, in which no human cop no longer can set their foot. Took me about ~3h. Enjoy! ]]> Fri, 29 Feb 2008 16:31:42 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/600503

[...] Two survivors, a father and a son, seeks shelter in an abandoned transport vehicle. I wanted some kind of horror movie atmosphere in his one, I also initially wanted to draw some creature lurking in the shadows too but I decided to go without it.. It's better to leave certain things to the imagination. ~3h in Photoshop. I hope you guys like it!]]> Tue, 26 Feb 2008 02:41:50 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/597869

An environment speed I did today, I wanted some sort of jurassic park/LoTR atmosphere. Took about 2,5h iirc. Hope you like it!]]> Wed, 20 Feb 2008 01:14:11 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/594911

This is a mattepaint of some office buildings in downtown Stockholm, as a part of my upcoming showreel where it'll be "slightly" animated. The story for my project is robots gone wild in the city. A very unique concept, I know.
The plane looks a little off I know, but due to a hectic schedule I didn't have time to look for a better photo. Besides, when animated it won't be as noticeable.

Anyway, hope you like it. Cheers!]]> Tue, 12 Feb 2008 21:45:56 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/560055

Alright this one is for all you Southpark fans. It was requested by a friend of mine and I thought it could be a fun little project for the weekend. But as the detail freak that I am I just had to see if I could create a somewhat realistic fur, which added alot more hours and eventually almost drove me crazy! I should've worked more on it, but I just had to move on with new projects and studies so.. this is what I came up with. Half man, half bear and half pig. I guess if Trey and Matt ever saw this they'd think I'm the biggest dork of them all.. Cheers!]]> Sun, 11 Nov 2007 00:46:26 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/587509

I've done a whole lot of mattepaints lately and I just had to draw something from scratch to "clear" my head.. And the first place I go to is, apparently, the oh so original guy with gun-concept. Took about ~1,5 days.
Anyway, hope you like it, cya!]]> Wed, 23 Jan 2008 19:18:19 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/563879

We've been assigned to create a character for art class in school, and I wanted to make something more "unique" than the soldier or warrior that I usually draw. This is what I came up with: some american dad/schrek-ish alien engineer that comes to your rescue whenever in trouble, using his portal-gun (which isn't visible in this pic). I haven't been able to come up with a suitable name yet though, any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated!
Anyways, I hope you like it, cheers!]]> Wed, 21 Nov 2007 00:49:21 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/554208

This was inspired by both TF2 and an older painting I did when I was learning Photoshop. I wanted to create a character in a dramatic pose, though it didn't came out as dramatic as I hoped. He was also supposed to appear more evil, but somewhere in the drawing process he became more warm and friendly. Hm, gotta work on that.. I also tried a little different speedy technique for the environment, something I'm not that familiar with.
Anyway... evil looking or not, this guy will grill your ass.
Meet the pyro!]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 14:57:40 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/548819

Hi everybody, this is me! I'm in the process of becoming a zombie.. apparently.
I've never used myself as reference before but now I've realised how great it is when you need reference on a weird pose. I felt a little stupid when I took the photo, but it helped a lot. I wanted a psycotic and zombieish feel to the expression, but still human enough to give the viewer the impression of something.. evolving or transforming inside the character.

Comments and crits appreciated!]]> Wed, 10 Oct 2007 12:35:41 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/538664

Well, what can I say.. I wanted to create an ironic contrast and I guess it worked out pretty well. Or the cheesy descripton: I guess I wanted to show the bond between all living things and how we all have something that we love or something like that..]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 11:14:14 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/547336

I did this one ~6 months ago, but I noticed today that I had forgot to upload it to my cgportfolio. Anyway, as you can see I tried to capture some kind of FPS feeling but when I look at it now I wish that I'd worked more on the details, especially the viewers weapon. But all in all I'm pretty happy with how it came out. Hope you like it too!]]> Sat, 06 Oct 2007 10:14:35 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/545489

I've been playing so much TF2 it's started to affect my drawing! This guy means business.]]> Mon, 01 Oct 2007 14:34:15 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/558893

This one is supposed to be a cross between the matrix and I, robot, at least that was the initial idea. I posed as reference, but for this one it turns out I am terrible poser. Other than that it was a pretty fun little project. Still playin' around with some new brushes and techniques which I'm hoping to refine more. Anyway, this NS6 (very creative...) is going loco, but this guy nows some moves.

Cheers!]]> Wed, 07 Nov 2007 17:57:05 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/544878

This was meant to be a quick project in school yesterday, but as usually I focused too much on the details that I didn't have time to finish him. :/ Anyway, ladies and gentlemens, the one the only.. predator!]]> Sat, 29 Sep 2007 07:20:59 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/540790

A tribute to Alec Baldwins hilarious character on 30 Rock. He's a comedic genius! Done in Photoshop using wacom.

I stumbled across some photos of Natalia Vodianova and I thought to myself - DAMN, I gotta paint her. The photo I used as ref was in black and white and since skin texturing skills aren't the best it came out a little weird, but I'm pretty pleased with the end result none the less. Hope you like her!]]> Thu, 13 Sep 2007 13:06:41 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/540376

Well, this one was a quick gift for my american friends Daniel and Brian. They're both crazy about dragons and at first I was a little sceptical cause' I've never done a "real" dragon before. However, I was pretty happy with how this one came out. Hope ya'll like him!]]> Sat, 15 Sep 2007 20:53:27 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/539798

Well, what can I say.. I was aiming for a huge detailed in-your-face kinda drawing, though it may not be the most thoughtful nor poetic piece I've ever done. Despite the obvious flaws in pose, composition and anatomy I still think this guy shows the world that he won't solve conflicts the verbal way.]]> Fri, 14 Sep 2007 05:24:15 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/538668

This guy's angry! And he got big weapons to hurt you with.]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 11:22:35 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/538667

Character design I did when I applied for studies. This poor FBI-agent's got a bad case of alien infection, which for some reason makes him grin in a very evil looking way. Spent a lot of time on this one. Hope you like it!]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 11:20:02 +0000 http://andreewallin.cgsociety.org/gallery/538641
