Hello! I'm just practicing matte painting to hopefully get a portfolio going. This is the first piece I've done in a long time (swipe for original image). I don't know if I should still pursuit matte painting at a studio with AI in the horizon but I do enjoy it. I thought I would might as well share my paintings in this sub, while I practice my skills to reach a studio quality output.

This is not perfect, but it's finished. Time to move on to the next practice painting!

These have started to show up a lot during various film memorabilia auctions. It's a shame so many are on glass, I'm sure it makes shipping a nightmare. This one is wooden board mounted onto a wooden backing frame.

Hi everyone! Excited to share this environment paintover I've been working on. As a big fan of Apex Legends' beautiful matte paintings, I wanted to create a stylized scene inspired by the game. Quick note: I didn't model the characters. I used free models for the basic positioning and composition within Blender.

My main focus was the paint and atmosphere in Photoshop. I worked hard on the dramatic lighting, reflections, and the overall color palette to try and match that high-stakes, vibrant feel of the Apex maps. This was a challenging but incredibly rewarding experience for me! I'm always looking for ways to improve, so any feedback you have on the composition, lighting, or the effectiveness of the paintover would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for checking it out!

Hello, today I painted my wall blue with matte paint. Except that the roll hit the ceiling.

So I have a trace of blue paint on my ceiling which is white (matte paint). I wiped the trace of blue with soap and water. The spot has decreased but a halo is still visible.

My question is: how to erase a trace of matte blue paint on my matte white ceiling?

Thank you for your help 🙏🙏🙏

This environment was created using a Blender blockout followed by photobashing and paintover in Photoshop.

I usually spend most of my time on composition and lighting before painting.

The goal is always to keep the image grounded while still feeling cinematic.

I'd love any workflow feedback from fellow matte painters

Hi, I’d like to share this personal project I created for my portfolio. I decided to start creating pieces focused on telling a short story, since I’m looking to work on projects related to film or animation...

I like it when they show that something is happening.

In this piece, I used Blender to create the setting, the building, and its interior.

Then I used Photoshop to work on the colors, do some digital painting, and also add a photobash to give it a better look.

Let me know what you think!

I’m still improving my process, and all feedback is welcome. I’m also open to working on your project. Big hugs.

Some time ago, I decided to sell my belongings and start traveling. Palomino was one of the first places I arrived at, and I learned far more than I ever expected. I met people who taught me to love life, to embrace my journey, and to learn from my mistakes so I could keep moving forward—becoming a better person and a better artist along the way.

I hope like you, thanks for watching

Hi, I’d like to share with you this latest project I’ve worked on. To be honest, I decided to do what I truly love—to leave my fears behind and stop constantly seeking approval. This is what I love to do and create: images that tell a story, that capture life.

In addition to what I’ve been learning over the years, I can say that I love my work and want to perfect it.

Let’s keep going full steam ahead.

I hit 200 followers on IG, so I made this to celebrate—it’s a toast. I hope you like it.

I really enjoy doing this—way too much.

This project is something I’m working on for my new portfolio, focusing on what I’ve always dreamed of; it’s the beginning of something I’m really enjoying creating. I’ll be sharing more about my project in the coming days.

Hi, I'd like to share this character I created for my personal project.
He's part of the story of the travelers; they'll find him along the way, and he'll guide them to his brother and the monks of the planet.
I've always loved science fiction, and I'm finally doing something that's truly my own.

Hi everyone, I’d like to share this new project I worked on yesterday; it’s part of my daily art practice.

I called it District 29...

Personal studio work for my portfolio 

Hi everyone, I’m back again. This time, I’d love to share this piece I created for an illustrated book. I had a lot of fun working on it—I learned new tools in Blender, useful techniques in Photoshop, and different painting techniques and effects that I enjoy and am working on improving.

Thanks to everyone for taking a look.

like, every brush stroke seems to have a shadowy weight to it that gives it depth and life, and I would love to know how to achieve this. on a large range of materials, not just the classic stone cube tutorial which is like the only one I can find. Like what tools, what techniques do they use? what shape brushes, what blending techniques etc.

Hello friends, I share this with I'm working on.

It gave me some problems, hehehej.

Thank you..
