Kristin


A fun little pinup for a friend at work. Obviously it is essentially a study of a famous Elvgren painting. I'll tell you, though, the subject of this piece looks just like the girl in Elvgren's painting!
Cheers!

Hey I did some cartoony shite!

This is what occupied most of my time last year. A really cool game that will never be made! Ah well, that's how it goes in this biz. I still get to draw fun stuff. Those that know me know this is quite a departure from what I'm used to doing but what a great way to stretch those muscles. I don't think I was terribly successful in getting the style like Rafael Colanzo and Bobby Pontillas. Those guys breath this stuff and it's brilliant. It just doesn't come that naturally to me but I had fun trying. These were some of the better ones...

Snabbit! Snapping Rabbit. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone had an evilometer?
I kinda like this one but if I had it to do over again I would redraw those monkeys. I can't stand the way I drew them. They look like the fell out of some stoner comic from the late 60s. Bah!Thumbnail process for the Bulkhead contraption...

What could be a more refreshing pick-me-up after fighting hordes of mechanical monsters?! Why a fruity beverage of course!
A gouache-y looking vista...
Bulkhead schematic... This guy was fun for me. It took a lot of back and forth to finally come to this design but it works well I think. The whole thing is controlled by a single ships wheel with a small horde of monkeys pulling levers and ropes to work the arms and legs!

Short Poses

Sup yall, it looks like everyone has been up to some good stuff.  Lots of great pieces recently.


Here's my short pose session from this evening.  I'm pretty proud of how they came out, it's been a long time since i've done short pose.

I saw Zombieland today. Brilliant new zombie flick! Loved it. Now, I am still a true believer in Romero's myth of the shambling zombie. However, a good dead flick is a good dead flick.

And yes, I am aware that I would fall quick thanks to rule #1. RUN!! :P

A quick digital sketch inspired by today's trip to the cinema!

Tessa

Today Tess and I are celebrating our fourth wedding anniversary. I did this little pinup-esque drawing for a card I made for her. She is shown relaxing and reading one of her favorite books while hanging out with her buddy, Icebat.

Karen

This is a quick (attempted) pin-up style sketch I did for a friend for her birthday this week. It incorporates volleyball and running, a couple of her favorite things. According to my sketch she is apparently also into tippy-toe butt flexing. :P

New figure work





I have been doing some digital figure work over at the art students league of denver. It has been a great learning experience, especially because this is the first time i've done any color figure work.

Whistler BC Sketching

Moleskine sketchbook - Whistler Master Class of One!

Hey if I can't be at the Illustration Master Class 09, I have to make my own right? Having loads of models doesn't hurt either:) Poolside at our condo and view of mountainside from condo window, plus monsters. One of the girls had found a plastic grocery bag and tore out the bottom to create a plastic halter top:)

The High poly has been done for a while but I`m defiantly not going to finish in time. I`m flying back to Denver to help family move so even if the deadline is extended this has become a free time project. pros and cons abound, but I`m glad I`ll get to take my time.

Figure sketches

Some recent drawings from some model sessions here in Seattle... unfortunately my scans sucked (mostly the 3rd image), and I seem to like to draw clubs for feet ;)
