Great work.. Love the painting. You have an amazing talent. Resteemed

Thank you Evelyn!

Great work, blending of organic and mechanic in a way that vaguely reminds me of Giger's work.

Don't take it wrong, but personally, I like the ink drawings more -- the crisp blacks contrasted with the white background always impresses and captivates me. I was impressed by the first ink-drawing I saw from your "folio" here, the "Android Pieta III" and now I have to follow you!

Thank you!

ein Muß fürs "Resteemen"

Danke @yoogyart!

This is more than wonderful, this is amazing!
I love he attention to detail Mr gric, he t of your work I saw was the nude girl own.


These works give me a post apocalyptic feel/futuristic-tecno feel.

These works should gain more love than they currently do.

The streets will flow with the blood of the non-believers...

Another great one. I would love to see some of these in a horror movie
I was wondering, though, how long does one of these paintings usually take you?

Thanks @leveste!
As far as I remember I've been painting on this for about three weeks.

Awesomeness @gric! It's always great to see process in an artists working!
I would love to see this painting up close in a gallery!

Thanks!

Sickkkk!!! That's insanely cool!

Thanks @yaan!

how long the ink drawing took you?

About two days.

Great efficiency! Patience is the way.
Cheers!

Love the bio-mechanical theme. It reminds me of how I think of people who check their phone every 30 seconds.

I like the free-hand airbrush work. Did you mask any of it? It seems like a lot of control to get within those fine lines.

Excellent execution, thank you for sharing.

Thank you @talltim!
I'm using simple self-adhesive masks to get the sharp edges and corners.

great post^^, followed u and upvoted some of your posts can u do that to for me pls :)

Thanks!

I can imagine that hanging on the wall as the backdrop to a scene in a movie like BladeRunner!!!

Maybe one day!
Thanks!

Really like your techniques and the final result :)

I got a technical question, I'v seen you several time using a video-projector, this is a so great idea! It looks like you are projecting only contours or main shapes, did you use a software to do that? Or any kind of homography projection to ensure the projected shape? Thank you!

I'm a big fan of your work, I love this 3D/geometric modeling approach!

Thank you @apolette!
Most of my paintings are based on references I render in 3D-software first. For tracing with the projector I either use linear plots or I filter the contours out in Photoshop with the high-pass filter.

Holy mackerel that is awesome!!!
Cant even imagine how long that takes.
You sir are a true Master Craftsman!!!

Thank you!

Amazing work as always-- and thanks for sharing some of the process with us!

Thank you!

Wow!!! what pen is that your using?
it looks like installation or 3d

What you see me using in these photos is an airbrush.
