Roggles

Hello everyone!

It's been such a loooooooooong time! I apologise for the lack of updates. But here's one just to keep you guys informed.
First of all thanks for the support that you've been giving me, i could not thank you guys enough for it.

I have been going through a roller coaster ride with my work at the moment. It's all positive, but its been so stressful.
I've moved jobs and i am currently directing a game which is due to release very soon (April). As you know I now work for King, and the pressure is high!

I hope to post some work stuff here as soon as im allowed. But yeah been a bit stressful, running a team, and giving talks etc. Managerial work is tough I tell you that! But it's been a great experience. Been having some personal problems as well so just the icing on the cake if anything haha.

Future is looking bright though! I hope I can relax for a bit after the game is released. I strongly apologise to my clients as well, i havent tended to them in so long. In fact I havent logged in or checked deviant art for about 3 years now.

You can see some of my new stuff here: www.behance.net/RogieCustodio

Theyre all work material though. I have some ideas for personal projects so hopefully I can get on to that. I just need to iron a lot of things out for now.

Take care everyone, and see you soon!

First of all thank you everyone for your support and persistence to follow my artwork. It has been a loooooong time since I have joined this community, and I have grown up with a few of my fellow deviants here. I have to say, this site has a changed a lot since I joined. Its still similar in ways but most things are definitely different. I myself have changed in what I post regularly. I apologize for the lack of fan art I used to post here.

Ever since I went to uni, my life has changed quite a bit and my view on art is also quite different. Dont get me wrong, i still love Naruto, and I wish I could do more fanarts of it, but its been such a shift ever since I started working. I went back to studying painting and color in my free time, and I also did my dissertation in my final year in uni about color and light. So what I am posting here is just another quest for improvement. I've always loved manga, but I am very particular about what style it is. The reason I was drawn to Naruto was because it had a style that was quite accurate in terms of anatomy. This really helped me when was a uni because it made life drawing much easier to approach. Not sure if you have noticed, but even though I was drawing a lot of manga, I was still trying to paint things as accurate to the real thing. weather this be anatomy, or material. I think it was a good thing for me because even though I paint in a realistic approach, I can still stylize what I am painting.

I feel like cell shading was definitely one of my goals when I was doing them. Trying to understand what the masters in Japan do, how the animators approach them and trying to achieve it to its best. If I cell shaded something now, I think it would look quite different (not trying to achieve the screenshot look but my own style). But yeah, I have been super busy with life lately, specially with work etc. Its already 80% of my life. So trying to better myself at that is an ongoing mission. My goal is to be a good art director who has a broad knowledge in what I do, and this is what I am trying to showcase in my recent posts.

But yeah, thanks for the support everyone! If you have any suggestions on what I can post/paint next, let me know in the comments.

(praying to be more active here...)

Regards, and all the best,
Rogie
