Tasty Tidbit

So ... what's for lunch?

Since I do most of my work digitally these days , it's really nice to break out the traditional materials and go to work at the drawing table. I made a bunch of doodles on a page ending up with an interesting head shape in the lower left corner. I added a "little" rider on his shoulder and wanted to continue the sketch....but I'd run out of the room on the page.

Solution: tape an additional page to the corner to add real estate to the canvas. Not as quick and easy as it is in Photoshop, but equally as effective and every bit as satisfying. Plus, I had cause to use my 6 year old roll artists' tape.

Have a great weekend!

Bit of a Sketch

Here's another quick sketch I worked on last night. I am intrigued by how adding a diminutive figure to a scene quickly creates a sense of scale.  Somehow, it makes the space on the page seem more expansive and grand.  There is more to this doodle that I'll post tomorrow!! 

Care to guess what the rest of the scene looks like?

Goatie

Here I am exploring a character design of a feisty ole' gold prospector for a story set in the Wild, Wild West. I think he still has far too many of his own teeth. I think I am going to try and make him as crusty as a slug of three day old rye.

FusionFall Heroes

So I've been away from my blog for a very long time. Where have I been? I've been working on Cartoon Network's latest multiplayer game:  FusionFall Heroes The team has been working round the clock to build this co-op online experience for kids. It's awesome to play and was a real blast to make. It launches today.
 
Now that the game is live, I'll be able to start posting some of the concept and promo art I created for the game. Thanks for dropping by!

Palace Gaurd

A quick little sketch of a palace guard. I don't know which palace or what he's guarding, but he does seem to mean business.

WWII FIGHTER PILOT

I wouldn't want to mess around with this fighter squadron...on the ground or in the air!

Returning to the Blog

It has been a long while since my last post. I have been really busy with life and with work. Hopefully, since you've found your way here, you might still be interested in some of my scribbles. For that, I thank you!
