update


...and by the way, there a few new pictures on my website as well: www.peterpopken.com

background...

...everybody has one. Background painting is where I come from and how I got started to work in the film industry. It must have been hundreds of them, traditionally painted in acryl or guache. The credits for the layouts go to the talented people at A-Film and another Studio in Belgium, the name I can't remember.

Speed Racer II

Another one of my illustration I did for Speed Racer last year. Still couldn't figure out if that scene is actually in the film since there is no cinema in Marrakech. Anyway, there are better things to do here than sitting in a cinema watching a kids movie =) by the way the art-of-book is now available at amazon

GO SPEED RACER...!


Still didn't get around to see the film and I have been told that it did not start off with turbo speed yet. Not sure about the story but the car races sure will be fun.


Two of my concepts I still like to look at and I hope I can show some more stuff on my website too. I guess there will be a book too.

speed-paintings



Two sketches I produced as a demo during my concept art lecture at filmschool in Ludwigsburg. Thanks again to everyone for your interest and patience. It's been a great experience. I have to say that I am very pleased with the outcome of our little workshop and looking forward to seeing more digital paintings from each of you in the future.
