I just completed my first tutorial video, titled “How to Paint an Alien Spaceship from Life.” It’s a submission to ArtOrder’s tutorial video challenge, in which art director Jon Schindehette gave out a call for entries for tutorial videos that teach a specific skill. I often build reference models for my illustrations in order to portray imaginary vehicles and creatures, so I thought that a tutorial on this process would be valuable and interesting for anyone who’d like to know more about how I create my images. The above painting that resulted from my video is titled, “VENTRUSCIAN WAR FRIGATE.” Enjoy!




The video is great! I think you should definitely keep making more of these.
Thanks! It was pretty fun putting it all together. I’ll probably make another one, we’ll see!
time to post it on PBS!
