Max Marin: 2008

Sunday, December 7, 2008

This is one of those pieces that I just can't get right, I had so many version of this painting.

The assignment was to do a comic cover of "Metal Gear", I had this perfect image in my mind. But rarely do things go that way, so I jumped on cliche idea of a girl with a gun. "Fortune", I wish I could have gone a lot more dynamic. But this was my first time doing a comic, so like most first times. It never really goes very smoothly. *sigh* oh well lol...

Hey guys,

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile, I have been so busy with Senior thesis, but I'm currently working on several paintings right now. So next time I post, it will defeintly make up for lost time.

This piece is from my sketchbook, I did it in watercolor, oil color pencils, and some markers. It was a Master copy from one of William Etty's paintings.

This is my Halloween piece, lil' Wayne with the red bape jacket and behind him. Are the some of the best rappers that have passed away like Tupac, Biggie Smalls, Big L, Eazy E just to name a few. I did it in oil, I had some problems with contrast and getting those bluish figures ghostly, but I think it came out pretty successful.

ILLUSTRATION

It’s rare that I feature illustrators whose main portfolio resides on a blog. But I’m making an exception for Max Marin today, partly because he’s still in school, and partly because his work is already very good. It’s nice to see work done in real oils too.

Share and Enjoy:

An oil piece for the "Tata Gala Show"... the original was nothing like this. I had changed it from a shadowing guy lurking behind her... grabbing her breast, but it wasn't working. And since I'm really into all sorts of cultures, I thought it was fitting to do the Mexican Aztecs...

I found a piece I did sophomore year, I completely forgot about it. I did it for Ms. French just before I was kicked out the class...lol. I did it in oils... for an AIDS assignment.

This is my latest piece, as you can see its got a very different style. Thanks to my wonderful peers, I tried to attempt a different look. It was alot more relaxing and kinda fun, but I would have liked to put more detail. Its an alright piece. 8)

Vladimir Putin

I really like this oil piece, but Thiel hated the bat wings, but the wings represent a fallen angel. Putin gave the the image of a renewed Russia, but then decided with his fellow comrades to invade his nearby neighbors. And the wings are from a Vulture Thiel! lol

I hate Chuckie, so I did something that was out of my comfort zone. I think I did it for illustration, but it might have been for that "Good, Bad and the Ugly" Show. But no one gave me a ride :(.... (cough cough Mr. Ofori) jk lol
