Sneek Peek!

Here's a sneak peak at the character thats the subject of my unfinished storyboards. A space traveling barbarian in a post apocalyptic world.

scripted scene: The subway

For my story-board class. Board to a script. This one happens to take place in a subway... blue pencil and a felt tip pen.

soryboard, Something falls from the sky.

I need to switch panels 8 and 9, but the assignment was: 2 character walking down a road and something falls from the sky. 12-24 panels.

This is mine

Trunk Monkey, panels

Our assignment was to create 4 panels, pitching our own unique idea for a trunk monkey commercial.
IF you've never seen a trunk monkey commercial, well, try and guess <:)

Storyboarding. Assignment 1

My storyboarding assignment, followed by the original sketches.
I used blue pencil and ink to draw it, scanned it into photoshop and applied tones.
assignment: A story that happened to you.

"I got accused over the years of being a fine draftsmen. Actually, I don't really draw all that well. It's just that I don't stop trying as quickly. I keep at it. I happen to have high standards and I try to meet them. I have to struggle like hell to make a drawing look good."
-Milt Kahl

If that doesn't make you feel good, I dunno what will :)

CD cover, final

Here's a CD cover I did for my friend Greg McCracken

reflection, final

This is a loose rendering, no reference was used... but I should have...

Reflection Value Study Sketch 1

Wow, I've been so busy these past few days preparing for finals I've barely been home, let alone gotten the chance to post!
I'll be finished with my first 3D animation soon, just have to add sound effects. Not a great piece of animation by anymeans, but the amatureness of it I find hilarious.
Anyway, I'm working on a painting for my drawing from imagination class now. We have to paint a reflection. Here's my first pass.

WEF poster

The Whole Earth Festival is this weekend at UC Davis.

Thought its kinda cool that the UCDavis website is featuring my poster design on their frontpage.
Check it out here:

www.ucdavis.edu

and for the majority of everyone that won't see this post in time, here was my winning submission:

quote, Kimon Nicolaides

"It is necessary to rid yourself of the object as it appears. The quality of absoluteness, the note of authority that the artist seeks depends upon a more complete understanding than the eyes alone can give. To what the eye can see the artist adds feeling and thought. He can, if he wishes, relate for us the adventures of his soul in the midst of life."

-Kimon Nicolaides

I pulled this from Walt Stanchfield's 'Drawn to Life' lectures, vol.2

Last Command, Final, Final

Jedi Fight, Complete

Is it really finished?
I don't know, but I'm through with it for the time being.

Class HW: Fight Scene, post 1

For my drawing from imagination class (perspective basically), we have to draw a fight scene between two people in perspective.
I'm taking the liberty of theming mine in the Star Wars Universe, should have a fun piece of fan art by the end.

I'm in the early stages of this painting, but here's the work thus far.
