To Discover the Royal Winter Fair

18'' x 24'' Acrylic painting. Aug 30th. Completed in 3 days for the Royal Winter Fair Poster Contest.

Improving an old idea.

Line. Summer 2014

Rough colour.

 This is the original idea I started in first year. 2011.

 

Some More Older Digital Paintings working with Colour.

Just some extras I ran into on my computer today :)

These ones are a little painful to look at but I find even old work can inspire ideas. 

Old Digital Studies.

 These are some old studies from my digital class that I thought I might post. I'm not particularly proud of some of them but I'm still working on the 500 bad drawing before I get to the good ones :)

Please note that the photos are not mine. Credit goes to their owners.

Folds study

These photos I took myself so I could work with good examples of folds.

Animation! Animal Animation!

I really enjoy animating animals!

I had trouble posting the animations here so I will redirect you to Facebook, where they animate much better.

Black and White Layouts with Characters

Dragon Sands

Earth Golem

Layout project 2014.

Some Things for the Gaming portfolio.

Some life drawing from this semester. I have a ways to go with life drawing. I enjoy it but not as much as drawing creatures. Anatomy is so important though, so here it is!

Some armor designs for horses. As you may come to notice, if I have add a horse into a project, I probably will. 

 My dream is to build mounts for MMO RPGs. Now, I don't know if that title even exists but, it's worth a try!

World of Warcraft fan art done for my 3r semester digital final (character with a background). I made up some new things and role played some stuff. For example the Night Elf is a druid, so her mount doesn't wear plate armor. This would be in Crystalsong forest, Northrend. Left sketch is a black ball point pen. Right is CS6 

Swamp Critter! This little guy is based off of a rat and an amphibian, mostly. I wanted to try my hand at glowing things. I also played with different types of layers when I did the colour and shade. 

Dwarf armor, weapon and hair design.

Character Build: Aluki and Swamp wolf.

 Character build: Aluki and swamp wolf

Drawn sketches of the character.

This is the colour, costume and horn exploration of the Character I built in 3rd semester. I had so much fun playing with this project.

This is the solid character after revisions and tweeks. I plan on taking this character farther. I might switch her name around and make it Ikula. I used a Inuit name for her (Aluki), but Ikula sounds just that much better to me.  

 Posing. She rides a lanky swamp wolf. 

 Expression.

 

Colour for the swamp wolf, who has no name.

 I added this beeswax sculpting putty to her hands for her magical arcane effect as well as fabric. The hair ended up being more saturated then I had intended but i'm not completely against the idea of changing her hair colour. The reason why her eyes are solid are because she is also blind. Which, if this where an actual story, would be explained in the beginning.  I also went into detail on the environment. I hope you enjoy.

Sketch dump of March 2014

I thought that perhaps doing a sketch dump would help me get over my Blogging fear. This is a bit of old and new sketches from all over (Sketch books, napkins, that sorta thing). Some of these ideas I plan on actually doing something with, some are fan art and some are brain farts. I hope you enjoy :)
