1st Season of Avatars

 

Hi everyone! Valentines has just ended and so was the 1st Season of Have-Your-Own-Avatar. I will be back for the Season 2 which will have great updates, new look and features. I'll announce the theme for the next batch and when advance orders will be open. Please look forward as I am excited as well! I had so much fun and I had learned a lot while doing the avatars. Again, see you guys next season. Thank you very much!

Have your own avatar

Hi! Anyone interested to have their very personalized avatar made? I am now open for made-to-order works for only $5.

Questions and answers:

1) How can I have my avatar made?
Hi. Just send to me your best photo or link me to your pictures. Photos should be clear, recognizable and if possible, high resolution. 

2) How can I pay you for the avatar?
Oh. You can send it through my BPI account (for local orders) or Paypal (for international orders)

3) How and when can I have my avatar?
I'll ask for your email address so I can send to you your order or a link to my dropbox and download it from there. Your avatars will be available soon, depending on the queue of orders.

You can reach me via my email: gkbaluso@gmail.com or just message me for inquiries. Thank you very much ‪#‎haveyourownavatar‬ ‪#‎artofgzel‬

Something in between work

Fan art: Astro Boy

Started out as a daily spitpaint. The topic was retro robot :) And oh! I really missed watching Astroboy. (I am a fan of Osamu Tezuka.)

Greetings to everyone

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

To the Edge and Beyond!

Hi everyone!
This is an illustration I made for an art test in Games Workshop. Although the work was not meant for me, I am very happy that I have pushed my painting skills to the very edge and that the test made me cross over to another  level. This is the farthest I can go for this piece, but this is not the farthest I can go for myself.

Meet Ruvie

Ruvie

Ruvie, Rowan's little sister. She follows every steps her big brother makes--from minute mechanic science projects into huge robotic facilities.However, her brother dies untimely in a failed experiment.

Ruvie was left with nothing. She hauls into the danger and masks herself as a boy. She believes that she can fulfill her brothers dream in his stead.

She will be known as Moona Rousse later on.

Process: grayscale, color overlays, coloring, polishing

A new character for a simple demo

Lord-in-Command Dharell of North Scatterdrift

Hello!

This a my newest work which I made for a process demo. I made this character for a stretch of 2 weeks but only working 20-30 minutes a day.

Hooray for my first video demo!

I have also posted my artworks in my Artstation http://www.artstation.com/artist/gzel and tumbler http://artofgzel.tumblr.com/ . I hope you can follow me there too.

Thanks a lot.

Meet Mogi

Mogi, character concept

Hi guys, meet Mogi. He is from a short story that I have brainstormed a long time ago. I have lots of stories in mind but so little time to write them down. I am happy that, for the meantime, I can sketch and concept the characters from my stories ahead.

Thanks for the visit. Good day!

Some inks from my sketchbook

 These are sketches which I drew ages ago and got the time to ink them during spare hours.
