Shazam commission roughs...

Here's a tight rough of a Shazam commission I'm working on tonight.

I wasn't content with the first layout pass, so I did another pass on the right side.

Gonna clean-up the pencils soon.

Hope y'all digs!

Get Off My Arse, Girl!

Astro is a lil upset that his lil sis, Uran, is all up on his upgraded butt cannon.

It'll be ok, Astro... Chill, dude... 

Here's a commission I just wrapped up.

Hope y'all digs!

Appa-tunity

I just picked up the new book Nickelodeon put out of Avatar: The Last Airbender; The Art of the Animated Series.

One of my favorite books of all time to date.  There's so much goodies and inspiration from cover to cover, that I couldn't resist to draw Appa.

Hope y'all digs!

Face time

Here's a few head sketches I did up at Heroes Con. 
You know these are of you, so come on in and claim yo' face!uck at caricatures, but it's always fun to do. 

I used to do caricatures at Sea World down in San Diego in 2000. I was only there for a month. The kids were too brutally honest. HAHAHAHA Here's the one that got me running out the door... "That doesn't look like my sister.... that looks like a boy!" DOH! HAHAHAHAHAHA I never went back. Props to caricature artists. Very hard to draw likenesses on the spot in 7 minutes.

Hope y'all digs!

Toy Story...

...well, not the brilliant Pixar version obviously. :)

This be a pin-up I did for my pal, Patrick Morgan's 2010 artbook.  Man, I love the universe he and his homies created.  SO FUN!

If ya haven't picked up the Whaleboy vinyl yet, then you're missing out because that lil thing is GORGEOUS.

Hope y'all digs!

Anim-mates "Designers Unleashed"

Hey gang... wow... it's been a minute since I have been able to get back onto the online art communities.  Been playing catch-up with my deadlines ever since I've been back from Heroes Con.

Man,  that con was a blast!  One of my favorites for sure.  Big thank you to everyone that cruised by the table to say howdy and show your gorgeous work off!  You all made our con so memorable.

Here's a cover I worked up today of some new character designs I did for my pals over at Animation Rigs.  It's for their book Anim-mates "Designers Unleashed". The book will be launched this year at their booth at San Diego Comic Con   :)

The book is a tribute to every artist that poured blood and sweat into creating new characters and exciting new worlds.  It's a great inside look at the collaborative thought and creative process from design to 3D.
