Arrow Valley Pick of the Day! 2 June 2015

For today we chose a piece based on the Mortal Kombat game series. The channel currently only has one painting at the moment and we can’t say whether or not they will do more in the future but it is still worth keeping an eye on. However, this piece is still worth watching.

Let's Paint...Juggernaut, Dota 2

Arrow Valley's Pick of the Day! 1 June 2015

Arrow Valley Pick of the Day! 1 June 2015

We came across this video last week and instantly added it to the pick of the day list. The channel doesn’t exclusively create painting videos but the ones that it has are excellently done.

While we could have chosen any of their works to showcase we went with the Mad Max themed piece to celebrate the release the new film.

Arrow Valley's Pick of the Day! 31 May 2015

Arrow Valley Pick of the Day! 31 May 2015

This unique and creepily dark take on the Shy Guy character from the Super Mario Video games really does deserve more views then it currently has, as well as the artist other videos. The video may not be suitable for younger videos due to its dark theme.

While taking a cute and cuddly character and giving them an eerie feel is nothing new but this does it extremely well. The detail on the mask really creates a great original piece. Please check out there video and leave them a like, comment or subscribe if you enjoyed it.

Arrow Valley's Pick of the Day! 30 May 2015

Everybody loves Dragons and we at Arrow Valley are no exception. For today we have chosen a fantastic piece by the channel, Drawn to Fantasy.

This hugely under viewed piece as well as channel is brilliant for lovers of fantasy art and currently boasts a fairly strong line up with regular updates.
The detail that has gone into the dragon design and the added softness of the background makes this worthy of anyone's pick of the day!

Arrow Valley's Pick of the Day! 28 May 2015

Arrow Valley Pick of the Day!

Today is the first in a new series where we search YouTube high and low to find the best painting time lapse videos we can. The idea is to help these artist who put their heart and soul into their work, get the attention they deserve. We will mainly be focusing on channels who have less than 5,000 subscribers as those above that amount already have a strong following. Also videos with a view count over 5,000 may not be accepted for the same reason.

For the first video, we have chosen the Legend of Zelda piece created by the artist, Brendan Milos. This was chosen for its excellent depiction of the Poe ghost from the video game series. The artist has created what we thought to be one of the best versions of the ghost we have ever seen. Please check out their video and leave them a like if you enjoyed it or even subscribe to them!

Let's Paint...Harley Quinn

For this week’s upload, I have chosen to bring back a piece that I took down some weeks back to redo some areas I wasn’t happy. The video was one up for about a day when I reworked areas like the hammer that I change to a bat and overhaul of the hair and style.

That is why at the end it jumps a little from creation to final piece.

May 2015 Updates!

Updates for the month of May 2015!

Well, it’s been a busy month for Arrow Valley as I never failed once to upload on a Monday and also uploaded on quite a few Thursdays as well.

However, I have now started to run low on videos and can’t continue to upload on the Thursday as well as Monday, so, I will be just doing Monday’s for the next few weeks to help build my collection back up again. I will admit that by trying to add Thursdays uploads was starting to affect the quality of my work which is something I never want to do. 

Below is the list of works in progress in alphabetical order.

Adventure Time 2 (sketch idea)

Batman Series, Harley Quinn (Finished)

Batman Series, Riddler (Sketch idea)

Five Nights at Freddy’s, Balloon Boy (Quarter finished)

Five Nights at Freddy’s, Foxy (Ready to start)

Minecraft, Creeper (Sketch Idea)

MLP FIM, Discord (Sketch idea)

Mortal Kombat, Mileena (Finished)

Mortal Kombat, Reptile (Started painting)

Mortal Kombat, Scorpion (Sketched)

Pokemon, Eevee (Half finished)

Pokemon, Jiggly Puff (Sketched and ready to start)

Star Wars, Bobba Fett (Scraped, restarted)

There probably are some more that I have forgotten and some that are my own unique works such as landscapes animals and flowers that are not listed here.

Thank you to all my supporters and watchers and hope you continue to enjoy my videos!

How to create shiny metal in Corel Painter.

Well, this is my first attempt at creating a How To video and I thought I would start with how i made the shiny metal from my Five Nights at Freddy's piece.

I don't currently own a microphone so had to use text to guide you through it. Hopefully, you will find it useful!

Let's Paint...Sub Zero

For this week I have chosen to upload a piece based on the fighter, Sub Zero from the hit video game, Mortal Kombat. The design is a mix of classic and new combined.

This was a request piece that has been finished for a couple of weeks now.

Fifa 15, my most amazing goal ever!

This is quite possibly the best goal I have ever scored on any FIFA game online. In the very last minute of extra time, I took an all or nothing shot at goal not really expecting it to go in!

Let's Paint...Spirited Away

For this week, I chose to dive deep into my collection of older videos. This one was created at some point in early January.

The piece is based on the awarded winning animated film, Spirited Away.

Let's Paint...Gaige from Borderlands

For this Thursdays up load I have chosen the crazy mechromancer, Gaige from the game Borderlands 2.

I chose to do a brighter anime style then go for the more realistic version to keep with the feel of the game. If you watch the video you’ll also see that I was going to add her robot companion but chose against it in the end.

Let's Paint...Ghast from Minecraft.

Well it’s finally time to upload the requested Minecraft piece that I finished at some point in February. I was tasked with creating the monsters from the game in a more realistic fashion. While I intend to do the other ones at some point, I chose Ghast first.

Let's Paint...Sonic the Hedgehog

For this week’s upload I have chosen a project that I started back in January and for some reason, it got pushed to the side. While moving some of the older projects from my computer to my external hard drive I rediscovered this one. The project was quite large which would contain many of the characters but due to the length it would take to make, I chose to simply short it down to just Sonic. If you watch the video, you can see that I started to paint Amy Rose and I do intend to go back and finish her off.

Let's Paint...The Scarecrow

The Scarecrow digital painting!

A digital painting based on one of the creepier villains from the Batman universe, The Scarecrow. As with the others so far, I have based the design on the comic books and the animated series rather the movie, Batman Begins.
I will admit the picture is a little more ‘scary’ then I usually do but because the character main theme is fear, it is almost in possible not to make it a little dark.

This video also marks the first time that I have changed my recording software. This wasn’t through choice but simply for some unknown reason. Ezvid, the program I have used for the last 18 months stopped working. There was no reason for this and so I now use the Microsoft program Encoder 4.

So, what do you think? Let me know in the comments!

Let's Paint...Leela.

Leela Speed Painting video.

Following the first Futurama piece from a couple of weeks back, I have chosen to upload the second piece in the series, the ships captain, Leela. Originally I wanted to upload Phillip J. Fry before this one but just couldn't finish it in time! As you can see, the Video has no thumbnail, despite uploading time and time again it simply won't save!

Let's Paint...Mountain Shrine.

This is an original painting done of a Japanese themed landscape. The original idea was to have the piece set at sunset but while painting I changed it to early morning. That is why the landscape colours change in the beginning.

Let's Paint... FNAF Toy Bonnie 2

Toy Bonnie from Five Nights and Freddy's

A lot of people have been sending messages and leaving comments over the last few months for more Five Nights at Freddy’s artwork. So here is a remake of the Toy Bonnie piece. The idea for this one is to recreate that same piece but at a different angle.

Harry Potter Studio Tour video!

This is the first video I have uploaded that is not a painting!

The following is a collection of photographs taken at the Harry Potter Studio Tour in Watford, London.

The place contains a large amount of the original items, props and costumes from the films.

The tour takes around about two-three hours to see everything but if you are a fan of the series, probably longer!

Let's Paint...Anna from Frozen

Let's Paint Anna speed lapse video

A painting of the character, Anna from the movie Frozen.

This took a lot longer then I though it would to create this and is at the time of uploading my second longest video! 

I do intend to do a couple more pieces based on Frozen at some point.

Thank you for watching and please leave a comment on what you think about this piece.

Let's Paint...Godzilla

This week’s upload is my first take on a Godzilla themed piece. It was requested by a couple of people but I have been toying around with the idea for some time. I had quite a few ideas but I none of them had much of an impact to me such as a simple portrait of the monster. I wanted to show the city under attack and felt that a zoomed out cityscape worked best for this piece. The city is also based on Tokyo as it is the spiritual home of the Godzilla.

I do intend to do a second Godzilla piece later in the year. 
So, what do you think works and what doesn't work as well?

All comments are appreciated as they help me to improve on future pieces.

Let's Paint...FNAF cartoon style!

This was my first upload after reaching the 100 subscribers milestone!
For this one, I chose to upload one of the more request pieces, FNaF. Only this time I chose to take the characters and tried turning them into a friendlier cartoon style to mix things up a little. I have never tried doing cartoons before so this was something new for me to have a go at. I have taken cartoons in this past but I have never turn something into a cartoon.

So what do you think? Would you like to see other FNaF characters in toon form? Let us know in the comments.

And thank you all for watching.

Let's Paint...The Slenderman

Based on one of the most popular creepy pastas of all times, The faceless figure that stalks the lost and innocent in the dead of night, Slenderman.

The original design had a small lost girl holding a lantern while the Slenderman stood just behind, This however was taken out early on as it just didn't work the way i thought it would.

This was created way back in January and has been sitting there waiting to be uploaded! So i felt it was time to finally do it.

So, what do you think? Would you like to see more creepypastas in the future?

Let's Paint...Bender

The foul mouthed, alcoholic, cigar chomping robot, Bender from Futurama.

In my original design, I had Bender smoking his trademark cigar (which can also be seen in this video) but I decided to take it out towards the end. The only reason for this is because some countries frown on smoking and since my art work is ‘family friendly’ I felt it best to leave it out.

Created using Corel Painter 11.

Here is the final image after completing the process in the above video!

Let's Paint...Rosalina.

A time-lapse video of Rosalina from the Super Mario video games. Click play to watch.

This was created using Corel Painter 11 at some point in September/October 2014.

This was the first piece in the Super Smash Bros piece that I have been working on. The final piece is set in a comic book style layout with one fighter in each box.

I had a hand full of different sketches for this design with most focusing on the whole character. Then, just before I started to work on the real thing, I had an idea for this version. Focusing on her face rather then the whole body suited my design for a SSB complete picture and so I changed my design to this.

I also wanted to try and keep this one closer to the Nintendo design with the big eye as the main example. Originally I planed to make her more realistic but it just felt right to stick with the main design.

So, what do you think? would you like to see more based on Rosalina or the Mario Universe in the future? Leave me a comment!

Thanks for reading.

Let's Paint...Pikachu

A Time-lapse video of Pikachu!

This was created using Corel Painter 11 in February 2015. I chose to create the mascot of the Pokémon series, Pikachu in an anime style. I had a few different ideas for this piece and my first idea was to have Pikachu sitting on top of the pokeball. But I chose to have him sitting in front as it aloud me to show more of the background.

So what do you think? Don't forget to leave a comment!

Here is the final piece!
