Tommo's New Artwork

**tommo** · 02-27-2011 11:39 AM

I'm starting a new artwork thread because this one was getting too embarrassing, except for a select few.

Ok so here we go....

In response to the Aliens being able to live in hostile environments (eating arsenic etc.) research.

IllustrationFriday theme was sweater.

**tommo** · 02-27-2011 11:46 AM

Woops, one more....

aaaaaaaannnnnnnd....

a huge mural. Me and my auntie did it together.

DV Book Cover

**Raphael** · 03-11-2011 07:02 AM

Very nice. So you're going to make a fully illustrated DV book, or was that just a concept?

I like the alien one a lot too.

**tommo** · 03-11-2011 07:10 AM

Some people are making a lucid dreaming book.
Not sure how far along it is or anything, but I decided to do a cover for it.
Yeah I like the alien one too, turned out better than I expected.

Thanks heaps mate!

EDIT: I need to fix up a few things on the book cover. Like the right arm and the trees a bit. But it's almost done.

Way cool I love your style. I especially like the snail and the mural of the forest.

**tommo** · 03-11-2011 01:22 PM

Yayyyy! hehe. I still need to fix the snail a bit too. I just spent a while on that one so far so I thought I would upload it.
Also we put a balcony sort of thing on the mural, I'll upload that with the finished book cover one tomorrow.
Thanks mate!

Thanks man! Yeah I like that one too, came out pretty good for the time it took.

**Emecom** · 05-22-2011 07:48 AM

Yeah you did a way good job with the mural! My favorite is the flowers in space one ha ha.

**tommo** · 05-22-2011 05:19 PM

Oh thanks Emecom!
I forgot to upload the updated mural, I shall do that tomorrow.

**Oneironaut Zero** · 05-22-2011 11:33 PM

These are great, man. Surprised I hadn't seen this thread, until now. Good work. Love the mural.

**Loaf** · 05-23-2011 08:01 AM

Very nice style. This one in particular is very calm, not just because of the content, but because of the soft brush technique.

Thanks O! I just cleaned the decking off a bit so I'll go take an updated picture now.

Thanks Loaf. I quite like that one too. The perspective ended up fairly wrong which was unintentional but it suits I think.

Also, news! I have been asked to take part in a group exhibition! Will post those illustrations up when I've finished them!

Are these all painted or do you use as well?

The mural and the one with the duck and sailboat are my favorites btw.

Use what? lol Digital I'm assuming. Yes I use both.
Thanks mate!
I tried to take a picture of the updated mural, but it's not looking good due to the light. I'll try later.

**Dark_Merlin** · 05-31-2011 11:58 AM

That mural is absolutely amazing! I love the way you blend it in with the plants infront of it

**sloth** · 05-31-2011 05:13 PM

Thumbs up. yo.

**Ctharlhie** · 06-02-2011 03:32 PM

I love that massive mural.

You should post more landscapes/natural scenes if you have more.

I've got a few more, but for now, here's the updated mural.
I still can't get a good picture. Which is annoying me. OH well.
We were really hesitant to paint this over the top hehe, but I think it really adds a lot of depth, especially IRL.

**Spenner** · 06-05-2011 06:36 AM

That is one beautiful wall

awesome work all around man.

**tommo** · 06-30-2011 03:15 PM

This is an illustration for an exhibition a company asked me to be in.

The theme is "We are in pursuit of what hasn't been thought of/perceived before" or something like that.

My idea is basically how we have got to this point in technological advancement through little bits of real creativity, using things for something other than you would usually, or think of it differently, like using rocks for paint, building wickiups out of sticks and making flutes out of bones etc.

EDIT: Woops, just uploaded it in CMYK and it looked fucked. Here it is:

Have to upload it in low-ish quality coz I can't host it anywhere until after the exhibition.

**Xox** · 06-30-2011 03:58 PM

Damn Tommo! You're great! :0

**Oneironaut Zero** · 06-30-2011 04:22 PM

Nice work, dude. Love the detail on the hut.

**tommo** · 06-30-2011 04:52 PM

Thanks Xox and O!

haha, you should have seen it before.... oh god.... I thought it would end up ruining the whole picture and I ended up just going, "fuck it, I'll just scribble some straw in here"
