From this very moment, I've decided to rehash my old and quite dusty "blog". This was kind of an alpa version of my portfolio, but since i created a new and slightly more "serious" portfolio with Wix (http://tommykarnerfors.wix.com/artbytommy) I thought that this could be more of a progress related blog, where I share a little more than just a couple of pics that im proud of. It could be anytning I've learned through the day, but of course it will relate to art, design, games and aesthetic of some kind, since that is my biggest passion in this present life.
My first contribution of this new era will be my practice in develop my understanding and feel for the beautiful art by Lucasarts, and I think that I share a particular love for the art style of "Curse of Monkey Island". The distorted, slightly fisheye perspective, tottaly exaggerated in all kinds of ways, vibrant colours and solid lineart. This is my progress so far, and from what i have learned so far, it's best to build everyting upp in cubic boxes and build upp everytning in 3D so to speak, and then distort it in a way that just feels right! And I think that quantity before quality is essential for learning a new art style.
