I'm tired from storyboarding. Here's a sketch I roughed out at 3am. Then "cleaned" it in about 20 mins.

Warrior Women!

Some rough women sketches after work.

Dog Vagabond

A quick sketch after work. I'm looking to get a new character design portfolio done over the next few months. And maybe a story to go with it! Just need an extra 6 hours in the day. And more energy.

Just a quick photoshop sketch based on "Abe" from Hellboy. A friend had to inform me what his name was. Before that he was "that fish guy from Hellboy".  I actually don't like this drawing now that I'm looking at it again haha. This is what happens when you rush.

RO….BOT!!!

A quick PS sketch for fun at work. Up to my neck in storyboards as usual!!!

Some PS sketches I found lying around on the computer. A bit of anime influence going on.

 I've been busy storyboarding full time at Bogan Entertainment here in Melbourne. My personal project are on hold at the moment, lots going on these days!! 

Been a while

I've been busy storyboarding here in Melbourne. Very busy! And lazy when it comes to the blog. Here's a quick doodle done in photoshop a few months ago to

 keep the other posts from getting lonely. No, this is not a picture of me either.

Black

This one was the coolest.

I'm tired!

It's been a while. Been very busy storyboarding and illustrating.
Here's a photoshop something done out of artistic desperation.

Illustration Commission

A Macross illustration commission. Its on a big piece of paper, so it has been scanned in two pieces, and is blurry. A different style than what I'm used to but I'm happy with the outcome. Good practice indeed. Was fun to research mech robots, as I was a fan as a teenager. Done in red col-erase pencil, black ink, prismacolor marker, and some water-colour. Completed in about a week in my spare time.

Wizard Lizard With Magic Crystal

 I've been working on this piece I had been working on in my spare time for the last month. It's been nice to work with paint on a canvas and not digitally. Done on a cheap store bought canvas in crappy acrylic paints with some black ink for good measure. Looking forward to making more New Dad budget art.

Mountain warrior with eye rays.

Pirate Parrot! (obviously)

This was one of a few little pirate illustrations done for 

my fiance and son's baby shower invite last year. 

Drawn in photoshop and printed on paper.

Evening Stroll

A quick walk cycle done in photoshop. I always liked the blobby effect of paint moving. I roughed out some line work in flash first to get my timing and spacing. He's wobbly but I like him.

Ideas

Wacky-ness

Some rough sketches I did yesterday. Too many wacky creatures in the brain.

Shooting eyes

Another quick monster from photoshop.

Drawrin'

Some artwork for a flyer I did a few weeks ago. 

Style Experiments

Some quick abstract ideas. A refreshing relief from drawing characters all the time. A lot easier to express my self with imagery like this.

Mountain Man 2

Here's a second page of the Mountain Man. .

Doodles

Wacky monster shapes.

Warrior

Another quick digital painting. A nice change from using line all the time. 

v

Jump!

A quick creature painting.

Weird

an old page from the sketchbook.

Been a while. Here's some character that's been floating around in my brain for a while. He needs a name. He's basically Indiana Jones but grumpier. I think I'm more interested in the world he lives in though. Should probably do some work on that. Like a post apocalyptic Nepal.

Fox

Two more pages of a fox that finds a magic sword and becomes anthropomorphic. Original, I know.

Juice Cleanse

I'm doing a 3 day juice cleanse, day 2, I feel weird. And my body hurts. Here's a page from my new portfolio i've been handing out. I like their details. A lot of tattoo art influence in these. It would be awesome to see them animated! 

Naked Ladies

It's Don.

In my stress to get a new portfolio together, Don came about. The whole idea seems too generic and a little like Garfield to me, but hey its a start. Fun to draw through!

Thumbnails

Here are some thumbs of a fox character I've been messing around with. Just practicing shots and trying to get some sort of momentum going. Working on Avengers Assemble at Atomic Cartoons in Vancouver was great for getting shot ideas. The board artists on it were SO good!! Learned a lot on that one for sure.

Stuff!!!

I've been trying to get a new "portfolio" together in my spare time. Some of what I've come up with so far. Not a lot of spare time with a new baby around either. Looking to start working again as my migration visa for Australia has finally gone through. Excited to see what Melbourne has to offer.

GIF!!

I've always wondered how to make an animated .gif file in photoshop. Now I know. This was a quick experiment. Jasmine is obsessed with cats. Gif's are fun, i shall make more!!!

toughs

some random characters I barfed out one afternoon.

Kat

this went on a birthday card for my old neighbour in Vancouver.

Painting plan

A color study for a painting, I'm sure it will change once I start. Exploring the ideas of relationship, cooperation, healing, tension and energy movement. I scanned a pic of the 18''x36'' canvas and photoshopped over top.
