Whimsy! Fun! Done!

This was the result of my costume/environment/artifact design project. The diving suit was the costume, the environment is a coral reef and the treasure chest was the artifact. It was supposed to look like a paradise where this treasure chest resided, and with a rainbow in the water I just made a logical conclusion to make the leprechaun the guard of the chest. The octopus just comes and throws a wrench in everything though. It's done more child-friendly and whimsically than some of my other works and was just quick and fun.

A Recent Work

I've been insanely busy lately, and this is just a cover for an annual report for a fictitious coffee company. It is based on south american culture, due to the origins of many coffee beans and farms. I took Incan influences, and depicted coffee as a source of life and energy in this fountain of youth inspired image.

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.
