Finally, Sleep!








I've been working on these nonstop for the last little bit. Now I can finally start on the projects that I've been handed out recently. This was fun though, I really just enjoy drawing figures. I've composed all of the finished drawings on one image. Also did some stone tablets, for this book but they're not that interesting. Good night.

More Fashion Drawings





Here are some new drawings for the previously mentioned project. I'm pretty behind schedule, but hopefully I can pull it together and get it all done. And I fixed up some things on the basic male, so he's back again.

(The Start of a) Comic Book

Here are the 4 pages that I have been working on for the last couple of days... it had to be kind of a rush job. I had a lot of fun coming up with the characters, probably wasted too much time coming up with a whole story and the characters, only to have it not read or be presented at all in the comic itself. Perhaps I'll do something with these characters in the future. Disfunctional/Ironic superpowers is the name of the game, without further ado...

Trendy Stylish Illustrations!



I've been working non-stop for the last 2 days and my hands are dead right now, so as I'll post something as I let them recuperate. I'm still working on a comic book project right now, but I just finished these for a friend's book based around street-style. They're just plain ink drawings, but I threw a gradient on them just for now. These guys are pretty plain, but I'll be doing a whole lot more with a lot more clothes on them.

The Masque of the Red Death



Lately I've been working on a few long projects, primarily a comic book project (I only have character designs done and I'm working on the script), and this project, the Theatre Poster. I chose an Edgar Allan Poe Story, The Masque of the Red Death, although his other tales were also in contention along with The Phantom of the Opera and Y the Last Man. Anyways, here's the image with and without Text.

I'm starting to realize I like to use red in a lot of my work...

Transform!



Two things I had morphed myself into for class. A rhino and a carnotaurus. Done in Photoshop and acrylics respectively.

Designs for Process Book






Lately I've been working on a Process book non-stop, and it's finally (almost) done! That was some of the rough concept art I was working on. Two of them are for an Alchemist class, one for a Tank character, and one environment. It's a world created for an imaginary video game, based upon Asian fantasy mixed with some European fantasy aspects.

It's a world where Monks have to fight demons based off of animals from the Chinese Zodiac (two of which were posted earlier) and expel them from the world, or seal them away. Whichever. I never got to do all 12 animals, or all 5 classes for that matter, but it's been a fun project. The book layout actually looks decent!

Another Sketchbook Compilation

Here's some random stuff from my sketchbook thrown together in one page.


My favorite's probably the angry guy I've been calling the "Fffffffffairy". The idea sprouted from a conversation that I had with a friend about how drawing any kind of human with bug wings would turn them into a fairy.

The idea for the guy in the top right corner is that he's kind of a spoof of racial allegory in science fiction. Obviously the idea came while talking about District 9. Jokingly, a synopsis about a movie with aliens who built space-railroads and were addicted to space-opium (spopium), came about. They also make good food.

Latest Work

Well, here are some of the last few projects I have worked on for class. First up are four spot drawings based on an article about underground music in China starting to emerge. Carsick Cars, Birdstriking and The Offset: Spectacles are all bands, and Maybe Mars is a significant Chinese indie music label. The last one is kind of rushed, it was a late night/early morning finish.


Next up are the finished Medusa and Perseus. Added the graphic outline to pop them both out and tie them together. I think I could make adjustments to Perseus based on how Medusa turned out. Detailed engravings on the armor, and perhaps a less stylized figure/face.

Works in Progress

So I've got some really fun and interesting projects in class, one of them being a Development Book (basically a compilation of roughs and concept art), and another being a Character Portrait project where we depict a protagonist and antagonist.



Those two are demons/monsters that I'm working on for the book project, and for the Protagonist/Antagonist portraits I am drawing Perseus and Medusa. Here's the start of Perseus:


There's still a long ways to go, and I'm definitely going to be doing a lot of tweaking.
