It's been a while, since i've posted anything in this gallery, especially matte paintings. So, here is something i've come with. I'm actually so much inspired by Indian architecture, that it was simply impossible to not use this particular theme. Used about million billion of photos with different temples as a reference, sooo, I hope it will not touch badly any religion's aspects. Anyway, hopefully you will enjoy it.

For those of you, who sits right now in an office, or reads millions of educational materials for getting prepared to upcoming examinations, and who dreams of a breath of a fresh air and a cool weekend - this one is especially for you]]> Tue, 26 May 2009 20:39:27 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/757996

Ok, here is my new picture. As every normal boy in the world, i adore all those rattling toys, with million bhp and billion of milexs per hour, a list. As i would not be myself, if would not paint anything like this one.

But the reason of painting it is not so selfish, no. Actually, i have a friend, closest one. Great guy, got a great job, became a big boss in there, has a million of friends, but despite of all those evil thingies, haha, he got a soul. The biggest soul of all, seen by me for a long time. And im proud to know him. Hey, Bernie, its all about you, ha! So, that guy loves things like formula one. And he had a happy birthday this sunday. So, a bit late, but here is my, not present, but a little note of love and respect to you, man. Congratulations.

And for all of others, who will see this picture - i hope you will like it.

And as always, solly for my engrish.]]> Tue, 28 Apr 2009 23:20:59 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/750828

Well, to be absolutely honest, im kinda sneaky with painting by hand. Always afraid to put an extra stroke to "ruin everything" on my work, may be that is the reason why i like matte painting so much. So, here is my experiment to do something without photo reference and over painting every nut and bolt, took about 10 hours a piece, summary. Hope you'll like it.

Another fooling around with matte painting. Had a few of a great nights by having fun of making this pic. Thanks for inspiration to unsurpassed Jimi Hendrix. Hope that you will enjoy this bunch of pixels.]]> Sun, 15 Mar 2009 18:52:57 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/733588

It's been quite a long time since i've post something here. So, this is one of my new artworks, i love to call it - "Echo" harbor.s Liked to paint some nice place, where would love to spend some couple of weeks for a holiday, you know, without any inet connection and celphones, after this bloody freezing winter. Theme is classical as world: castle, mountains, ships, bridges. Business is as usual. However, i hope you will enjoy it. ]]> Mon, 23 Feb 2009 07:09:53 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/674738

My last matte-painting.
Tried to paint some spooky, secret place, military dock for submarines, in Dr. Evil's style Submarine, which is just docking in (or out, whatever), calls "Gustlof's revenge", in responses of a big tragedy in WW2, happened in a Baltic sea with german passenger ship "Wilhelm Gustloff" which is sunk while participating civilian refugees. So, i've imagined, that some bad guys has built this huge and mighty submarine for they's revenge business... In Dr. Evil's style too... Bla bla bla...
Anyway, hope you will like this picture. ]]> Sun, 14 Sep 2008 01:50:17 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/772086

This picture has began as a simple training to paint a human anatomy. And, well, ended up here, as a print for my nephew.
This exact picture can become an illustration to thousands of stories for kids, and there's about a billion of huge greenish monsters around this gallery. So, im not original at all with particular story. But, anyway, i hope that you'll enjoy it. Have a cool week ]]> Sun, 07 Jun 2009 22:48:13 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/756015

Well, probably, someday we will get an ability to travel somewhere much further, than to Moon, or Mars. And, of course, will have a skyscrapers, each of them will be sized as an entire city. So, already made a concept for this case.

Actually, just had an experiments in using a wide angle in an environment concept. Hope you will like this piece. ]]> Thu, 23 Apr 2009 01:40:49 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/669018

Here is another matte thing from me. I love to call this place - Frankenstown. The purpose for me in making of this painting was - to make some dark and foggy place, in some "jack the ripper" style... And hope that finally i made it. Spent about four nights, file has about four hundred layers, and to be honest, im totally exhausted by it. But, you, guys, hope you will like it. ]]> Fri, 29 Aug 2008 01:15:27 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/658851

This is the view from my window in Estonia, Tallinn.

No, actually that's the lie. It is another of my traditional, non sci-fi matte paintings. Well, i've always been in love with japanese traditions, despite of never being in there. So, i've decided to paint something what would make me feel like i had some short trip in a traditional village, near of a mountain lake in japanese alps. I had this trip during last three evenings, and i'm, to be honest, has remained quite happy about this time.

So,i hope that you will enjoy this picture.
And yes, crits and comments are welcome.

upd. Previously, i would like to say thanx to all of you, guys, who commented in here. Really, nice to read such kind of words.
And, iwould like to apologise about this picture, because, ive finished it just couple hours before my plane to Switzerland, for a short holiday, and i could not really see in the different screen, that picture has became quite dark, in some reasons i dont know why, and a huge amount of details ive paint are gone in darkness. Normally, it could be the waaay brighter than it is now. So, i will be back to my comp, and then will send an original pic in my gallery.
And again, thanx.]]> Thu, 31 Jul 2008 02:56:34 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/648459

I've always been in love with architecture. Aspecially with the old one. And mostly with architect of the Medici's ages. Find it really magnificient, so deisides to make some matte-painting of a street in this kind of style at the early morning lighting. Don't really know, if i've hit the goal in it, cause spent about four days, in pic is almost four hundred layers... So, my eyes are really soaped on this composition... But anyway, hope you'll like it. ]]> Tue, 01 Jul 2008 08:06:55 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/648898

That's another matte-painting, i've done it about a month ago... But was so unhappy about some details, that found a power and time to change them only this night. So, here ti is. Base for this art is panorama of existing bridge, in Japan. Calls - Seto Osachi. Nice place, stunning views, so i've deicided to dirt it up with my hyper space buildings. Sorry for that. Hope you'll like this picture.]]> Wed, 02 Jul 2008 04:16:56 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/677122

Just some speed painting. Made it for fun, with custom brushes and a little amount of photo reference.

upd. Just has thought, that i'll probably spend some more time to make it more complete and detailised, so would like to get some crits and comments about composition and lighting from you . ]]> Sun, 21 Sep 2008 03:08:11 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/650757

Well, i've never had a big experience with creation of a nature. That's why i made this matte painting. Original size is 3790x1600,
so i couldn't post it here such a big thing, and just made some moments in an original resolution. If you'll need it, i may make a link to a bigger pic. Hope you'll like it.

But that's not all i've like to say. I want to response this art to Esbjorn Svensson, leader of jazz-band E.S.T. He is gone. And i hope, that he will find a better place, or better life, and will be not less talented person there. Rest in peace, Esbjorn. This one is for you. ]]> Mon, 07 Jul 2008 20:12:16 +0000 http://dimms.cgsociety.org/gallery/627810

Here i've tried to create some breath taking, unusual landscape. Finally got this secret place for Evil. Not really well experienced in matte painting (yet), so will be happy to get your critiсism and advices. Hope you'll like it.]]> Sun, 04 May 2008 01:17:56 +0000
