more Creature Sketches



Hey here's some more sketches from my class project.

Yes, Brian it's very good to just keep your line work loose when you're starting on a drawing. Also no need to have a hard grip on your pen or pencils....you'll feel the difference when you draw. I'll catch you all later.

more Creature Sketches



Used dip pen to sketch out these critters. Then I used ink wash for the bottom sketches and greymarkers for the top sketches to add some tone to them and use a primacolor white pencil and white gouache for the white highlights. I just wanted to illustrate to my students to keep everything loose when trying to figure out a drawing of a character. I'll catch you all later.

Finger Puppets-Backspace



Hey here's some finger puppets that Geoff and I put together sometime ago as promo pieces. Feel free to download this image...so you can print out and cut (within the dotted lines) the finger puppets. You'll have hours of enjoyment with these fine finger puppets of our hero Delgado and the nasty Virus. Well, I'll catch you all later!

Mayan Soldier



Here's a layout piece I did based on one of my sketches in my Merida Sketchbook. I'll like to do more of these penciled layouts based on my sketches throughout this year. Also cleaning some up by inking and coloring would be good as well. I'll catch you all later.

Browser and Doc




Here's two more character concepts for a animated pitch I did sometime ago.

I'm working on updating my portfolio. It's taking sometime in doing this...got a bunch of work to go through. Editing is not all that fun...so far so good. Catch you all later.

Sketch using Art Rage 2


Hey all,
Here's a alien head color sketch I did using Art Rage 2.5. It's a really cool art software that I've been using from time to time. Even though this program is very simple...it does a great in looking like real dry and wet traditional media. You guys should give a try...there's more to life than just using photoshop. I'll catch you all later.

Hey all how's it going? Just wanted to upload my latest demo piece I did for my Character Design. I will also be coloring this piece as well. It should be good demo. I'll be bringing my Cintiq into the classroom.
