New Year New Post

Happy New Year!!! I haven't posted in awhile and it's 2016 so i thought I should share some stuff I've done! Here's a Christmas card I made for my dad:

More cards, sketches, and a preview of my new comic after the jump!

Beating Online Harassment

Oh hey, remember that online harassment comic I was making? Here it is! Hope you enjoy!

I mean this is a revenge fantasy comic, but seriously, shit like this needs to stop. I am super tired of hearing from my female colleagues that they get abuse heaps on them for writing any kind of article. That is NOT OK. Don't do it, and if you see it happening, tell them to cut that shit out and report them. We as a people and as an industry need to stop this.

But hey, this is just a dumb comic. Better people than me have written about this, like this great article by Laura Hudson. Go read that.

See you next week!

Figure Drawing And other stuff(slightly NSFW)

Hey it's Monday! I've got some figure drawings to show off!

These were all done with ink only, specifically a brush pen and a ballpoint pen. Obviously this stuff is kind of NSFW. More stuff after the jump!

31 Inktober Mosnters

Here's all the monsters I done did for Inktober! Have a look-see fi you missed any!

Monster Monday Update

It's almost Halloween and that means that Monster updates and Inktober is almost up! The monsters are invading! Take a look at some of the monsters I did this past week:

This guy is cute and fuzzy. I like him. More after the jump!

Monday Sketch dump 10/07

So hey, since it's October, there's this thing called Inktober in which you do an inked drawing every day. So I decided to draw monsters every day of October! Here are the ones I've done so far:

This mummy came out pretty nice. More spoooookiness after the jump!

Monday Sketch Dump 09/30

Hey there fellas! Wanna see some sketches?

And more after the jump!

inky stuff

Hey! New stuff Monday! That's what day it is! Here are new sketch stuff update things!

This guy I did in brush and ink. I'm trying to get back into ink! More after the jump!

ALL OF THE CHARACTERS

30 Characters November is over and I actually created, sketched and inked 30 characters! If you missed any, here is the full roster:

more characters

Here are some doodles of faces I did in class:

And here are the latest characters for the last 2 days, today and tomorrow:

 He's a pig...something.

 I like this guy's nose.

 Man I don't know what it is with me and badass looking women in black.

It's Machismo Man! haha oof.

start of 30 characters

It's that time of the year again! No not the holidays! NO NOT ELECTION SEASON. No it's time for the 30 characters challenge!

It happens once a year for November in which artists try to come up with a new character design every day. I've been doing pretty good so far(just not about updating on the blog).  Here are the characters I have so far!

His name is Squidsym and he is an alien robot squiddy thing.

A noir jazz player with a saxophone! I feel like his name is Sandy. Also sporting a stache for Movember! More on that later.

"What, me evil?" I liked the design so much I had to see it in color. 

Her name is Suzie Slamfist and she likes unicorns and anime and PUNCHING EVIL IN ITS STUPID FACE.  What no this has nothing to do with Wreck-It Ralph why do you ask.

Cyber hacker named Shriva with tattoos and a techno eye.

This big lug is meathook!

More to come as I update daily, but for up to date coverage, check on my twitter!

Edit: 2 more characters! I did them in a different sketchbook because of reasons.

Some kind of robot exterminator...thing.

I don't know who she is, but she scoffs at your lack of fashion. Scoffs I say!

24 Hour Comic Day 2012

Another 24 Hour Comic Day has come and gone and yet again I realize I have no idea what the word simple means. Unfortunately I couldn't finish and was only able to pencil and semi ink 12 of the 24 pages. Take a look after the jump!

Character designs for the comic.

noir tests

Hey hey, I've got a new noir comic coming out, and I've been doing some tests! Check these inking samples out.

This is just ink and brush. It's not bad. I like the stark contrast.

This is ballpoint pen and wash. It's a little to grey for me.

This is brush and ink with ballpoint pen. I really like the little details plus the high contrast. I really like that scratchy sketchy feel. 

Also, I did this logo for a group I'm working with, Digital Bad Boy Studios:

I think it came out really nice! Very square and angular. I'm going to be doing some cool variations on it soon too.

more noir sketches

Hey look, more noir sketches!  Still trying out different inking methods. That is all.

noiry sketches

Hey just trying out some random sketches of people with pen and brush! Still trying to find that "noir" style.  What do you guys think?

killer clowns

So I am now working on a game with some fellows involving killer mutated clowns, and I've been designing all the clown characters. Here are some of my crazy clown character designs!

gesture and shadow

Hey here's a sketch dump of some shadow and gesture drawings I've been doing in my inking class!  These are all done with ink and brush, no pencils.

ink and wash

Hey guys. Haven't had a post in awhile because I've been busy! I'm taking classes again! One in Inking and one in Storyboarding.  I'll have more to post on the storyboarding class later, but for now, I have some stuff to show off from my Inking class!

Our first assignment was to do a one-page comic with ink wash. I've been wanting to do a "Professor Malceor: Necromancer of the Subway Station" comic for awhile and thought this was a good excuse.  I think this came out pretty good for my first Ink Wash, though I'm still trying to find the best brushes. After the jump, how I planned it out, more inking work, and other stuff!

Haywire poster

I've been working on this illustrated Haywire poster on and off for 2 weeks for my review. It's finally finished! In retrospect, it was WAY more work that I thought it would be, and I definitely should have planned it out better.

I also wanted to show the different stages I went through in creating it. More after the jump!

Illustrating!

Hey guys! I haven't done a post in a couple of weeks. I've been bust working on other projects and stuff for Sketched Screenings. Which by the way has its one year aniversabirthday today! (actually yesterday, but shut up!)  Anyways, here are a couple of the latest illustrations from Sketched Screenings:
