The Robot

Its strange that at work, which mostly works with medical products, I get to draw something pretty cool. So here you all are, a robot. The first image was some concept sketches of what the robot could have looked like. The second image was a quick and dirty process of taking one of the sketches and splashing some color on it and the last two is what it has turned into now. Beefy-er and more badass. Also, please excuse me for not posting anything for weeks but know this! I have TONS of work that I will be posting on here and my website soon which includes backgrounds, design work, 3D!!!! and motion graphics. So check in once in a while and enjoy! Antastic

Kids Toy Escape...its for the kids....*UPDATE*

Why yes....another app I did artwork for. Designed for the young folks out there who have parents that let there little ones play with there iPhones and iPads! I'm attaching the art sheet for the game which includes each character and background with in the game. The great thing about this game is there are NO in app purchases, all the characters are unlocked and I think for $.99 on both devices...if I am not mistaken. Anyway take a look at the art, the game, and of course Reverend Lovejoys wife always thinking about the kids ( and hope you all know that I own no copyright to The Simpson image or any trademark :) )

FYI...to search for the game on your iThingy just type in "Kids Toy Escape" in the search engine. Enjoy!

Zombie Breakout!

Hey there,

I got great news and art! First I have a game on the app store and not just a game I was contracted to do art for but a GAME! What does this mean? Well it means this is something I created along with a Developer, Matt Doyle, for the last two weeks. Its a real simple game about crushing zombies escaping from their graves. Lots of cool in app items you can get and a nice soundtrack.

I'm also posting some of the artwork for the game, just character designs and background layout. You'll be able to take a look at the game in the itunes store or the links below:

iPad Version

Take a look and hope you enjoy!

Me

So I got the urge to draw in colored pencil and marker...its messy and the picture looks fuzzy causes its from my phone but if you look at it on a phone it looks pretty cool. Enjoy!

An Oldie but a Goodie

I'm going to attempt to post one new or old piece of art or even sketches I have done at least once a week. So what I have hear is something old but still pretty good! This is actually on my online portfolio where I have a lot more animation stuff that I don't post on here that much but I decided to slap this on the blog for easier access.

These are just a couple of character design studies for some characters in my story "The Boonies" and then the snow-boy expressions are for something else that is still up in the air. I did the snow-boy all with markers and colored pencils and the bottom characters were all done in photoshop. Enjoy and look back next week or even this weekend for some more antastic artwork!

Drawings...?

Well these are not new drawings or sketches but my blog is lacking in the updates so here you go!

These were concepts for a potential animated series for a company I worked for a couple of months ago. I think the project is being put on the back burner but I was able to do some development work for one of the many characters. So here you go and for those following the blog I would like to share some goodness with you all:

I am currently working as a contractor for a company that will hopefully keep me on for more projects and it looks like they have a whole bunch coming! Things are looking good people...things are looking good...for now...

The Boonies UPDATE

So here is some updates for THE BOONIES. I think I posted a color development for THE VAN but as I am writing this I have not gone to check my blog but here is a newer one with some snazzy background elements! I also have, yes......ZOMBIES!!!

I was getting a little worried about the zombies cause I was drawing them and they were not coming out how I wanted them. Was I going to make them a bit more complicated or give a simpler design that still has some difficulty to it. So what I did was take a look back at my Greg and Jessica drawings and then I got it! Spending an afternoon sitting on the couch I was able to draw about 20 zombies. I also watched Dawn of the Dead (the 1978 version) and used their color palette to use as my own because 1) I LOVE Dawn of Dead and 2) It will be a bit of a tribute for the movie and Mr. Romero himself. Some of the zombies are actual zombies from the movie but in my style and I plan to do a lot more in the actual short too.

I hope you enjoy these new pieces and maybe, just maybe....I might ad some of you people I know into the short as one of the undead.

Update on 'The Van'

I wanted to share a update on The Van I am working on. Its basically a turnaround for me to have a pretty cool design piece and to use (hopefully) later on to model but I will find out about that later on. Currently I am working on he interior of the car, the back and front of it and since I don't draw much environments, interiors this is taking some time but I'm sure it will turn out pretty well.

So enjoy and lets see if I can show the finished page in the next week or so :)

The Van

Here is a preview of what I have for 'The Van'. I know its gas-guzzler but c'mon... what's better than a Ford van with a kick-ass paint job of naked ladies riding a unicorn (which will be on the the van later!) to mow down through some zombie hordes. What I plan to do for the development page for the van is have the side shot shown here, a front and back one, then a fish bowl drawing of the interior of the car which will show all the crap that Greg and Jessica have scavenged through their journey.

Alright then, Enjoy!

Jessica Sheet

So it seems like it has taken a while for me to post another sheet for 'The Boonies' but I have been trying to find actual paying work and that has been taken up my time. Good note is I am looking for 2 to 4 freelance gigs coming up so we will see what happens!

Anyway, here is a design sheet for Jessica. She and Greg have gone through numerous changes and at the moment I am happy where it is going. Look forward to see some props designs for these characters and of course...ZOMBIES! I am going to design some generic zombies that will roam the streets as well as the key zombies that the two characters will be fighting.

Hope everything is going well with all of you out there, talk to you later!

Finally!

Hello out there!

So what I have here is one of my two ideas I have for a animated short. What I plan to do is draw the visual development for both, you know, characters, environments, and other items. That way I will have TWO stories with a bunch of artwork ready to use and of course more pieces to put in my portfolio!

The first one I have here is for The Boonies which is a rename for my Dead Fools idea. As some of you know I really love zombies...really, really, really love zombies! When I thought of my other idea the Dead Fools story just came back to me and I thought making a 2 to 3 minute animation for it would be cool. It will involve the two main characters and a whole bunch of zombies eating, killing, and being blown away!.

Enjoy and keeping looking for more artwork for The Boonies and my second short which I will name when I post artwork for that as well.

Snowboy 06/01/10

Hello out there!

Enjoy a drawing of snowboy with some more weird crap thrown on him to make him all pretty like. I'm attempting to do some new coloring stuff....as I always say but I am trying. I'm actually trying to do some coloring and inking with pens, makers, and other materials.

Enjoy!

Projects

So here is something to post since I'm drawing new things for this anyway. Its for a project I'm working on with several other people. Its this thing about monsters, with their monster adventures, and other monster craziness. Enjoy!

Barbara

This is Barbara, aka Wolfgirl. She use to be all blocky looking and not very attractive. She doesn't look that bad now and I fixed some of the old designs looks. Again, enjoy!

Antastic

Count Drake

So here is Dracula's teenage son, Drake. I actually was about to finish him with the first design then stop and spent some time redrawing the head and how the body moves. I like the outcome of the head and the body too so hope you all enjoy! Probably some time later this week I'm going to put up Barbara, aka wolfgirl, and Boogie, the Boogieman's kid.

Antastic

Frank Sr.

So at the moment I'm stealing Monster Squad until I can think of something a bit more creative but here is Frank Sr. He is the aging Frankenstein's Monster who is the bodyguard/muscle for the other kid monsters I am drawing up.

I thought it would be funny to draw a older Frank, old man pants, ear piece, 'seeing' glasses, etc. So here he is and hopefully later on in the week I can draw and color the other guys. See ya later then.

Antastic

Boo Squad or 80s cult classic Monster Squad!

So I want to develop these characters into a cartoon, for reals this time! I wasn't able to color them yet so here are the inks I did. I'll post the colored version some time next week and maybe might redraw them but will see. So anyway here is the Boo/Monster Squad....I don't know what to rip off as a name just yet.

Character Sketches

Here is some character sketches I have been working on for my 'Oddballs' series and other various projects. I'll post some colored/finished versions later on....hopefully. Anyway see you all later!
