BAMF!

Well, it's been a while since I've been here!  I've been doing a lot of freelancing lately and just recently got a break to do some of my own stuff, so I thought I'd share it up here.
Nightcrawler has always been my favorite Marvel Character!  There is just simply not enough nightcrawler out there in the world.  

I whipped this up in my sketchbook about a week ago when I couldn't sleep, and was watching Iron man at 1 in the morning :P

I wanted to do some pinups with giant fruit a month or so ago, but never really got started on the idea until Last night I was struck by the bug of inspiration.  Funnily enough, I don't really drink, but for some reason the idea of making a bunch of little posters or labels of fun summery cocktails was just to fun to pass up.  I have another one thats almost done and a few more ideas, so I'll probably be posting them up soon.

Enjoy!

Busy Busy Busy




I've been doing some freelance work, keeping busy.  

Been working hard lately, but I managed to crank out a new pic!  Another doodle turned into massive project (nothing new for me) and I'm pretty pleased with it.  I especially liked the line work for this one so I posted it too.

Another Runaways piece, featuring Nico Minoru, the Runaways resident witch and fearless leader.  I think I like drawing her so much because she's got the coolest wardrobe...



EDIT:  Posted again to fix the broken link...

Graduation!

Hey everyone!

I finally did it!  All the stress and hard work has paid off, and now I'm graduating!  Now instead of stressing over homework and my demo reel, I can move on to stressing over finding work and a job.  Exciting!

Thanks to all my friends family and faculty, and to you for checking out my blog!  WOOT.

You can check out my demo reel on my site!

Hello All!

Long time no post, I know. Things are picking up speed on the school front, so I've been pretty busy working on demo reel stuff.

I took a break for this though, this is based off of a crazy dream I had a few weeks ago about bird people. I rarely remember my dreams, and I really liked the look of the bird guy, so I drew it before I could forget it.

I based the markings off of an Osprey, and the dream sort of took place in the steam-punky sort of place. I'll have to do some more design work for some of the environments and characters in there, because it was a really detailed dream place.

Now that I've bored you with random dream stuff you don't care about...

I'll post a color version of this as soon as I get it done!

Roller Derby Disco


Hey there!


Back with another post, sorry its been a while. We just finnished up with midterms last week and this is the first drawing for fun I've done in a while. This was a quick sketch I did waiting backstage at a show I volunteer for in Laguna Beach called Pageant of the Masters. It reminded me of one of the ladies I perform with (she's a DJ) so I flushed it out, popped some color on it in Illustrator and made it into a buisiness card for her. Hope ya like it Wendy!


I've been so wiped out lately, I feel like I don't have time to breath anymore, so sitting down to work on this was very relaxing. Back to work now, though...

A little bit of MoGraph...


I finally was able to get the midterm from my 3d Studio class posted up here! Took me long enough, huh?

The parameters for the assignment was to create a 30 second 'commercial' based off of one of two images our teacher gave us. I chose the fashion illustration (obviously) and, decided to go with they sketchy, simplistic lines from the original drawing done by my instructor, Brian Smith.

I hope this doesn't take too long to load, I'm unfamiliar witht he video loading on this site so I'm not sure how the quality is gonna be...

Fashionista


My mom is a seamstress, and taught me how to sew, so I've always been really into the whole fashion thing. Anyhow, I was watching Project Runway marathons on Bravo while simultaneously checking out some of the concept art for runaways by Adrian Alphona, and I was just really inspired to doodle, so here it is.

I forgot how fun it is to just sit down and scribble something out instead of laboring over a drawing, cleaning it up and coloring it. Scribbles are fun.

Uhg, back to school monday...
