More Painting

Recently, in between being a PA and retouching gigs, I've taken some time to draw. Even if it's just a paintover (working from an existing plate without changing it too heavily), it's good practice, therapeutic, and reminds me of the type of work I'd most like to be doing. Take a look!

The finished result.

Concept Art: Over the Lake from Dan Conway on Vimeo.

The finished result. This week, I can blame/thank Noah Bradley for inspiring me to go draw more. Check out his work, it's amazing.

Concept Art: Airship Dock

Trying to get back into practice! I drew this the other night.



I'm particularly pleased with the ship in this case-- have to admit I cheated the perspective up a couple times, though.

In other exciting news, I will be heading to San Diego this weekend for a job interview!

Starting the Weekend Off Right

Comped together a quick little fantasy environment shot these last few days, just for fun. Also useful for taking my mind off the stress of my upcoming grad review.



The base plate is from Fort Funston in San Francisco, and further reference came from Arizona and Santa Barbara, California.

In other news, promo cards arrived yesterday and they look great!

Revamping my Web Presence

Welcome to the relaunch of this site! Which is incredibly generous considering that there were probably six visitors to this page in the last three years. However, this will now be the home of my professional blog, though I admit that sounds like something of a contradiction. As far as content goes, expect to see behind the scenes and, work allowing, WIP stuff here as well as links and so forth. Over the last few days I've been working on a complete redesign of my website which will be live soon at danconway.info.
