Robot Envy: Zenith

Robot Envy has started a Kickstarter.
It's a huge Collaboration of a bunch of artist who love to draw ROBOTS!

They've been kind enough to include me in their book.
They've give me a feature today, and will be featuring artists daily.

Check them out.
Make this book happen!

Oh Fishy Fish #fishmonster

Last Thurs I was asked to do a work shop on concept art.
As a class we did a brain storm session.
We decided to do some Character concept
Some topics were brought up, of those four were picked.
Electric Eel, Chainsaw, alien, and mushroom.

Below is the final image.

Here's the beginning of my process.

Some rough silhouette sketches.

Brainstorming ideas with all the elements fairly quickly

The fourth image was selected

A quickly refined image was made with some tone.

I hope to take this further to a more finished piece.

Happy Holidays

It's been a busy December.
I threw this together. It's going to be my son's first Christmas. We're so excited to celebrate this time with him and the rest of our family and friends.

With that I wish everyone a happy holidays!

#Happy #Halloween #2014

 

Happy Halloween!

Hi Folks! This is my Halloween greeting card for this year. I've been really busy with work and my brand new baby boy. It's his first Halloween! I figure since he demands my attention all the time, I've made  him my focus for this year's greeting card!

Happy Halloween Folks!

 

Here's a preview pic of my son for Halloween. (I'll update this on the day of)

Cheers!

#Pixlr App artwork #fanexpo

Last month I had the fun opportunity to work on Autodesk's Pixlr app. This was their campaign #mysuperpower that was launched for Fanexpo

I've included some sketches and process videos for some of my favorite ones.

Pixlr is available on Desktop version or get the app for you smartphone.

#Thunderbirds @cerealgeek

I did this piece last year for Cerealgeek.
This was a bit of a education for me. And If you've read or know about Cerealgeek/ James Eatock.
He has a vast knowledge of kids shows of the yesteryear (I'd consider him a historian).
I was familiar with Thunderbirds  through my cousin but rarely saw the show (I only knew it from a toy that my cousin had. Diecast and super cool!).
I've posted the opening up below. Basically it's where "Team America" was a parodyof.

But what I didn't know they tried to reboot the show called Thunderbirds 2086, in anime form.
I vaguely remember it in the 90's. But I didn't make the connection since the look and feel was totally different.

It was a fun piece to try to tie the two shows together.

  

I found this documentary on the show as well

 

Late nite drawing with my son

I had a late nite drawing and hanging out with my new baby son

#astroboy: @cerealgeek #mightyatom

Another fun piece I got to do for James Eatock! Astroboy was one of those childhood classics. As a kid I was robot crazy, Getter robo G(Staravengers, Mazinger, Grendizer, Gaiking!). So Astroboy goes up on that list.

#ThunderCats @cerealgeek

Feels like forever since I've posted.
I've been a little bit swamped and juggling a few things (online hiatus).
But this is some work I did for cerealgeek.com. For issue 9.
I've always wanted to work with James Eatock (mastermind behind Cerealgeek and youtube official Heman Channel. He's got crazy info and commentaries on there) and lucky enough I was able to fit it a few pieces with James last summer.
Please check out more from 

I'll be posting a few from the publication as they get published.

Oh yeah I just opened up a Instagram account. Feel free to add me!

#HappyHolidays #ElvisLives

I started this since the summer. My father in law took us to the Elvis Festival (Elvis Lives was everywhere).  So basically you put Elvis Lives + scifi element and I did this.

Big thanks to Ricardo Martin for his Karaoke Elvis performance. And letting me use his performance for this video.

Happy Holidays

I'm a Marvel kid! @marvel #spiderman #avengers #hulk #wolverine #thor #captain america

It's just about Halloween season. I just manage to scrape this one together.
It's based off a image a friend showed me on the web. It cracks me up everytime I see it.
I'll post the image below.

here's a closeup if you like to see it.

  

And here's that Ref that cracks me up! 

#MOTU #Skeletor #Heman Skeltor: Master of the universe

It's been ages, since I've posted anything.  I've always wanted to come back to this Heman piece and work on a Skeletor.

I've been working on this off and on this year.

I figure I'd concentrate on this since I'm not sure if I would have time for anything Halloween this year.

But it kind of fits?????

 

Here's the old He-man one

ZOMBOOK!

Last Friday I got a nice surprise in the mail.
I was asked by Alan Graves to contribute to his  Zombook last year.
I was shocked how many entries and how thick the book is.
It looks great.

My contribution to the book. Easter Zombie rabbit vs Monster Egg.

pretty cool. I got a double page spread.

#SummerTerror in FULL SWING! #kaiju

Longer sunny days, great out door weather.
With the blockbuster Pacific Rim just coming out (which I still haven't seen).
I thought I put a funny spin on the Kaiju genre

Assassin's Creed 3 Ad/storyboards pt1

Some storyboard work I had done for Sidlee.
Based on the game Assassin's Creed 4.
It's not often that I get to work on ad's that cross paths with my nerd side.
A lot of fun.

This first piece is for a Bus ad. Using your Smart phone (it would play a animation).

Sparkdale Characters

I worked on the Sparkdale characters for the game. There's roughly 70+ characters designed. A template was designed for the bodies to save time on character design, and dev/animation time. Here's a few character samples
