I've watched this video 4x's time now and right after the first time I went and tried this on paper with mechanical pencil it turned out great thanks for the tips on here it helped establish depth and texture too
Basic instruction VERY well executed! You've got a great, intuitive eye for organics, but you need to consider the term BIO-MECH more carefully. Giger excels in his art because he successfully combines a disturbing vision of organic structure AND mechanical (hence, a LOT of straight lines) objects. It's a simple matter of a deep appreciation of perspective that makes using straight lines a worthwhile addition to art.
Good work and you've got an excellent voice for narration.
dude thats sick as im gonna apply this style of art to my graf just because it looks so awesome to look at thats for the tips and stuff and H.R.giger he has relased a book hey
thank you for the helpful insight.its nice to come across someone who isn't standoffish about helping others learn.thanks again.later days and god bless!
You rule man!!!...Nuff respect!...Now that I had found this biomech tutorial of yours, I'd be happy to get back at you as soon as I can finish my first biomech piece that I've been craving for so long!...Thanks man!...
GEEGER???, you're wrong man... unless you're saying every documentarie i ever saw of GEEGER they pronounce it wrong :p it is GUYGER ;)
niw for the artist, i thinks its very nicely done but i would try to make it look sharper (my opinion) but i did not see anyone do better on photoshop so big up ;) i've got a biomech sleeve on my arm myself so i'm really hooked :D
I just want to remind you all that this piece was done in 20 minutes using only the Adobe Photoshop airbrush tool. It was never intended to be sharp, but more ethereal as I stated in the first video, only to show very simple methods for anyone to take to their own art table and tinker with. I wasn't trying to replicate Giger, no matter how you pronounce it. Perhaps in the future I'll do a vid exploring crisper detail. I think this is simply a black on white primer.
Hails! I have been on the quest and thirst for Biomech art, and then I saw your presentation! It is sooo simple, but yet it was elusive for me in the past... BTW, it's pronounced Geeger, rather then Guyger... But beyond that, you are an awesome artist, Slavedragon ^_^
Very nice and easy video tutorial you have here. Im pretty sure my friends would find this useful, since most of them paints or use Photoshop. I would however want to see some of your digital drawings too. Take care now!
Nice!!!! Your video was very insightful for me. I love to sketch like that and have never used a computer to do it. I'm leaning to tattoo... and decided i wanted something like what you're drawing on my arm... so I was browsing through youtube and found your video. Very awesome and helpful! Thanks so much- you're an awesome artist!
If you are using photoshop, you can alternate from a fuzzy airbrush back to a tighter airbrush or even a pen/pencil tool when you get to the foreground and then simply use whatever blending method you like, such as the smudge or blur tool. Alternatively, the sharpen tool might work for you. This piece was meant to be a little ghostly in the interest of video length.
great tutorial just what i needed a different perspective on bio mechanical art. very confusing and complex art form.

simple but really, really good tutorial!! thanks man!
and btw - grimjer is right, the name is GEEGER not GUYGER. it's a german name.
in german language i is pronounced ee...
Hans Rudolf Giger is a an artist from switzerland - and the main language of switzerland is german.
if somebody still not believe it look on youtube for an official video by giger where a kid screams: IT'S GEEGER, NOT GUYGER!!!!
