Not sure if I would call it my MO, but I like to paint opaque. Then depending on the surface/texture I'll introduce some transparent strokes to make it more cohesive. Sometimes mixer brush is needed to bring it all together, is that a bad methodology?

Do whatever works for you. Who am I to say what's bad or good.
I just asked because it seems like such an arbitrary phased approach might yield less intuitive results. Why not build up your volumes and blend simultaneously?
I'm no expert. I'm always looking for better ways, too.

so I made a pic of that moment in Space Odyssey 2001 when they find the black obelisk "the dawn of man. Posted it at my blog http://wp.me/p2HhOv-2X before I posted here....cuz, honestly I've been sitting on it long enough and I know I'd revise the hell out of it and not want to post it if I got crits here. Still, bring them if you got them =)

So, something I've always wanted to do is big poster-like illustrations that sum up a story

 I'm watching breaking bad and I want to do a poster of the last episode, Ozymandias

Here is a thumbnail. Crappy I know but I was mostly concerned with the refferences and the composition. Has anyone here seen breaking bad and can tell what this is about?

My latest piece of art is a website: http://www.geldannahmestelle.de/

Breadscan / unedited source photo

Part of my therapy is also to try new things, so I started getting into baking and cooking. Of course I could not just post an ordinary photo of my first self-made raisins-bread so I did some photo manipulation and added some special effects (gray-scale background, shadows, mid-tones, highlights, scan-lines and that scanner ray across the bread).
