In case you didn't think I was a big enough nerd...

So there was a fan art contest for the upcoming re-release of Sonic CD. I was working on this bit by bit until I found that I had missed the deadline today! DOH!

Oh well. That just means I can post it here now. Little bland color wise but other than that, I liked how it turned out! :)

Taking a huge dump!

A SKETCH dump that is! See what I did there?

Last couple of days I've been practicing tying down my sketches. I think I've found a method that works!

This one was just randomly doodling. Loosely sketching it red, tying down the form in black, then shading in blue.



These two were from Ben Caldwell's Fantasy Cartooning book. Lots of fun characters in there!



These were caricatures of people walking by while on a few of my lunch breaks. Started playing with ink, here.


This one's pretty cool! I'd like to try to color this one in. Same with the rest of these!

Space Comic colored!

Finally finished it!



Nice to have this done but it took a little longer to finish than I'd like. I should probably start looking into some coloring tutorials or something. Whatever. I still like how this looks. Not without it's flaws, I know, but it's mine. :)

And no, I won't be adding dialogue to it. You can make up your own if you'd like, though! Wouldn't that be fun? Eh? Your own dialogue?

Fashion Sketching!

Working on a new project. Studying fashion models in order to get it right. First few are a little weird, I'll admit, but I like the last two or three.

OSNAP! sketches

OSNAP! is a little organization here in Portland made up of some of the local animators. Every month we do a little 'Drink and Draw' at the Lucky Lab Pub. This was one of the better turn outs so I thought I'd post my sketches from tonight.

Started off doing some caricatures...


...then I just started doodling.

Finally, one of the girls came up with a rather interesting creature. Half giraffe, half octopus. Giraff-a-puss! Or was it Octo-Raffe? Anyway, we all did our own interpretation of it. Here's mine!


Lots of fun, this was! I hope there's an even stronger turn out next time! :)

Again, any critique will be helpful. I'm going to take a little break from this to work on some freelance stuff but this time I will do what I can to fix any mistakes that you guys notice. Thanks for lookin'! :)

New Sketches!

Just some sketches. I think I'm on to something here. :)
