Children's Book Characters


Here's a couple character designs for a children's storybook concept project in styles & concepts. The story is about a young boy named Alvin and his imaginary friend Eli. Alvin and Eli are the very best of friends, spending everyday together from morning to night and taking incredible adventures and battling the evil monsters of the creeky closet. Sticking together no matter what and making the days worth living. Yet the time has come where Alvin is growing older and begins to make new friends at his school. It is no longer cool to have an imaginary friend and Eli is beginning to fade away.

Pirate Bear Finish

Finally got a chance to finish this one up amongst my other schoolwork.

Black Joe Lewis


This guy's pretty damn cool. I'd go to the show if I were in town...

I tried to do the whole thing in a Blue Note Record sleeve style. Any thoughts?

Been a LONG time....



No I didn't forget about everyone out here on Oondu. I'm just pretty bad at keeping up with things. :P But I figure I'd post up my Movie mash-up assignment we turned in last week for Groff. It's a mix between Alien and the King and I. Awesome work out here everybody! I'll try to get my lazy ass to comment more!

Lost Creature

Here's a creature sketch I did a little while ago and just found in my stack of papers. His name is Gill, a Divercula species that can live underwater and on land.

Ms.Mam




i have been doing a lot of portraits drawings these days, some for fun, but this one was for Mr. Wang. I added some Ps effects music symbols and textures to make it look more like an illustration.

Hey guys these are some sketches for the home page of my website. Over each mouth will be a link to the other pages. I would like to know which you guys think is best, or if you had any ideas.

Movie Mashup for Groff

New piece among all the others I'm working on


Here's the line drawing for my next piece. it's 30x40, so it's huge. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for palette, from either specific paintings or artists. Always appreciate another brain(s) to help think things out.
Btw, this is a painting about a dream. The sea below is hard to see, but it is the night sky as an ocean. so, black with stars. The island is the moon, and the sky/horizon will be the earth. The bottom of her bed will be a reflection of the sea, so black with stars, rippling from where she is being pulled through.
The guy pulling her is from my poem, the Pillow King, and he doesn't have a face on purpose. I'm thinking his head will also be filled with space. Maybe a specific constellation. You'll be able to see his mouth and eyes, which are smoking.

(i also fixed her right arm where the elbow is low since taking the picture...)

Gollum


Hey guys I think I'm done, but I just wanted to see if there were any suggestions before I turn it in. This is Lord of the Rings combined with Jaws which makes a super lame movie

Phishbowl

for shits and giggles.

The Temple Raid

Well, here it is. The update of my assignment for C.F. Payne's class. It's not due till friday, so Let me know what you think while i have time haha.
Here's the animation that goes with the character sketch I put up a while ago. He's kind of a silly Krampus.
These are my characters for Glick's class. The theme was "Rodeo". Initially in my sketches I had each character separate and then Phil suggested I put them all in a scene and from that this is what I came up with. Thanks for the tip Phil. If anyone else has any advice or questions feel free to speak up. :-)
