Speed Painting – The Early Years
by Font on Feb.23, 2009, under Art, Speedpainting
speed painting refers usually to rapidly produced concepts, I’ve never been extremely good at it, but have fun none-the-less. This form of sketching usually involves photoshop, my wacom tablet and 30 minutes to an hour of free time. I also do a few speed modeling sessions with Google Sketchup, which for whatever reason tend to come out better than the paintings.
High Pass filter Extreme!

The first few speed paintings I did with photoshop weren’t “dreadfully” bad as I had expected, though I did make the mistake of using the High Pass Filter once I had finished it to make the edge of the lines sharp. This was ultimately the wrong thing to do as everyone knows what a bad highpass filter looks like (and if you don’t, you do now). Still for 30 minute painting/sketches I was proud of these when they were made back in 2001 or 2002. I was originally inspired to start speed painting when I started visiting art forums sites like sijun.com , eatpoo.com , and concerptart.org each of which have a thread specifically for speed painting, the sijun one inparticular has 1080 pages of speed paintings.
