And I thank you all guys for your endless support!

Check her site out, she's got a really great style.

What are they going to do when the lights go down...

On this one, I just tried to get more "oily" with PS.
This was a sleepless night doodle that turned to a complete illustration.

Forging Sympathy...

Hi all, it's been a little while...
So here is a little Starwars "recreation"
I've been working on it something like 20 minutes every day since a few days, I think I'll not work this way again...
I also tried to change things, on the background for example, something more relaxed and a lot less detailed with painter, foreground with photoshop.
hope you guys will like it!
take care.

(by the way, I invite you to click on the image for a larger view!)

Gentle Thoughts...

Hi there!!
here is the 'doodle' I've done tonight in a little less than 3 hours I guess...
just took some pictures for models, some Pink Floyd sounds flowing in the whole place and let's go!
that was a really fun and relaxing thing to do, I think I should do more exercises like this.
(and thank you all again for your support!)

(Th)inking allowed...

Hi there!
I've been messing around with watercolors last night, strange sensation, I'm not used to have a real brush in my hand... (except while inking but it's ways different ^^')
I'll try to do more of these, I did not expect that it was this different from digital painting, I mean using watercolor is quite close from my usual ps painting method but the differences are mainly in the sensations, maybe because the painting is real, I can touch it... ^^ dunno...
so, there it is!
and thanks to all of you for the nice comments on the previous post!
take care.

Wish you were here...

Still fake!!! ;-)

God of Emptiness...

This is a fake cover done just for fun (well, not exactly just for fun, it was a good painting exercise too!^^) ( and I'm not working for Dark Horse Comics...(yet...^^))
, I thought about the idea of a pic in which the monster is not the one we think at the first sight...
I let you tell me if it's conclusive...

and thank you all for the previous comments!
take care.

Terminus (Where Death Is Most Alive)...

well, a little sketch of a toad we can't see anymore (thanks mankind!!)
just some pencil and photoshop, really quickly done...
(the shoulders look strange but the picture I used as reference was taken with a flash light and it was difficult to catch a light source and the toad looks actually like this)
and by the way thank you all people who took the time to give me some support with some always appreciated comments!

FADZ engage...

Hi there, here are a sketch and one excerpt (unfinished here) of a commissioned artwork for the music industry!! (I'll tell more and show the whole piece soon), a really funny thing to do while listening to this great album to come...

(thanks a lot to Manu for that!! you rule, buddy!)

So, here is a quick portrait of my personnal mystical being (Baci Hachi! hope you don't mind...^^), some things have to be changed here and there (the hair for example), but I hope it's going well...

The flight onward...

Whispering inspiration is controled by knowledge...
I'm currently focusing on my lightings so it makes me do some funny things like this one.

Pull the plug...

Currently spending a lot of time on a comic book project, so not too much time for something else, so a lack of new things to post here...
feel sorry for that guys...
here is a little robot quickly done...
I would like to thank all of you for the previous comments, I really appreciate all of them and take a real pleasure to read them all!

Long train running...

A quick sketch done in the train somewhere between Nantes and Paris and quickly coloured with photoshop... As you can see, once again it's something about daisies, butterflies and happiness... ^^

Bite the pain...

I feel sorry for the lack of new things... I'm quite busy...
But here is a piece with the influence of a famous concept artist, this could be considered as a study... I've learned a lot of stuff with this work and I'm sure it will be very positive for the next ones...
wait and see...
Thanks to all of you that still stop by here, I appreciate your comments and support and I'll answer to all of you soon!

take care.

En schizophrens dagbok...

the gloomy Pr Sablayrolles is back and in a better shape!!!

I remember...

Flattening of emotions...

Well, today this blog is one year old... nothing special but a quick relaxing doodle done late at night after a hard working day... it's cool to let the hand talk by itself sometimes...
And, in a way, I 'm quite happy with what I've done with the values here, it looks like I'm starting to understand a few things... quite cool...
pfiou... one year... I wonder how the guy I was one year before will react if he was discovering the (I hope real) evolution in the drawings... probably surprised...
thanks again to all of you guys for stopping by during this year and for all the encouraging comments and precious inspiration.
take care.

One step closer...

His zipper is wide open...

Another Hand, the killing hand...

This is the first time I do that kind of 4 hands drawings, well, the first time I paint someone else's drawing... The original drawing was made by Awk (check this out!!)
It was really interesting and I've learned a lot of new stuffs with this exercise...
I think I'll do it again, it's strangely relaxing...
(just have to find the time...)
