Learn to develop and render complete sci-fi and fantasy worlds from the ground up, using traditional techniques. Learn the challenge of developing and rendering complex environments. Develop the characters and creatures that inhabit the environments, using basic anatomical structures and principles, and then render them into finished designs. The class will focus on development and rendering, using traditional techniques of pencil, pen & ink, marker and gouache paint. Your instructor, Brian Snoddy has worked in the sci-fi and fantasy creation world for over 2 decades, collaborating with household brands such as Magic the Gathering, Dungeons & Dragons, Warhammer 40k and Star Wars.

  • DRAWING… this is the first week or so.. students should bring every/any kind of
  • pencil, ruler, eraser, template, and paper that they like… I will also supply many of
  • these things for learning and experimentation.
  • INKING… this is the second to forth week.. students should bring India ink, various
  • brushes, brush pens, pen nibs ( I prefer a HUNT 102) and some kind of white out or
  • gouache white paint, and a toothbrush. Also a 100% rag/cotton Bristol board ( 2
  • ply).
  • PAINTING… these are the last weeks of the class.. this is just a black and white
  • painting class……. so just three or four sizes of brushes.. I recommend #0, #1 #3
  • round, and a 1 inch flat brush. Also…. 1 inch wide masking tape, a hair drier, and
  • 100% rag/cotton Bristol board (2 ply)… also a wooden, plastic, or heavy cardboard
  • surface to tape the paintings down to, and water container and cups to mix the
  • paints.
