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! 29 May 2015

Arrow Valley Pick of the Day!

For the second pick of the day, we have chosen a fantastic piece based on the movie Riddick by the artist, Adnan Tezerdi.
The piece looks almost photo realistic and really is one of the most inspirational pieces we have ever seen. This is the short version of the video but the artist has also uploaded a full time lapse video. 

Please check out their video and leave them a like if you enjoyed it or even subscribe to them!

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.

Batman Series, Harley Quinn (Finished)

Batman Series, Riddler (Sketch idea)

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

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.
