ice planet sketch











Doing this one just for fun. I'll be updating it more in the coming weeks.  I felt really good about the concepts in this and the shapes so I think I can take this one really far.

Shadow Bot





















Decided to test out al.chemy and do the first thing that almost everyone does. Create a robot. When I was pleased enough I took it into photoshop and did some painting over. I'm pretty pleased with the result. Lots of happy accidents

Edit: forgot to mention that I did this right before bed so I could have cool robot dreams.

Sketch before bed

















LOLPainters? a new internet meme? Sketched this one before bed. Saving as JPEG and save for web F's with my colors though. Gotta get a color calibrator.

I Miss Kauai DS Sketch















Ok. So there's a little behind this one. My wife and I went to Kauai about 2 years ago and fell in love with Hawaii. Cecil Kim stirred up some up some of the feelings I have for the islands when he mentioned that he worked in Hawaii at Square. THEN I went to a massage therapist for a get-away that my wife bought for me awhile ago. So this is where I went when she was working out the knots out of my neck and shoulder blades. The image stuck in my head so vividly that I subsequently painted this right afterwords. 

The Chase DS Sketch
















Halfway through this one I realized that the greyscale studies needed to end and that I need to move on and "man up". This will be the last greyscale for a while. Time to have some fun with color.
