side view, avatar


Brushing up on my anatomy to see what works or not. Either way, I like the outcome. She looks a LOT more closer to what I want, other than just another pretty face.

talkin' smack

So, ever met someone so crazy that wanted to hurt you so bad that they did everything to be near you?

Well, that's what I was thinking when I was drawing this picture. Lady Deathstrike was on my mind and I had an idea since this girl was crazy that even her HAIR wanted to kill my avatar (character).

I just like the expressions and poses on this one XD. Also, this is a list of stuff I wanna paint.

I study again...

More studies



This is what I've been doing over this weekend. Sort of downloading a bunch of data. Here's what I liked best so far.

preliminary studies


For the new project I'm working on I had to draw a few things from some reference files to get the general hang of it.

I think I'm getting there. :)

more stuff...



I wasn't able to draw for a day. Nothing seemed to come out right. Then my friend said take some time off and play video games.

Well it flows much better now. :)

While Linser had his Dawn, I have my Avatar. Dunny why.

patrick

So, my friend Patrick referred me to some stuff regarding Gerald McBoingBoing.

The cartoons were cute and they reminded me of a time when the world didn't deem it that in order to be intelligent you had to be cynical. In short, they just had a sense of wonder that you don't see much in animation anymore. :(

So, I saw in his Kitty Journal (about his character) of how cute he thinks the character is.

Mind you, I have sent this man bunnies. Very cute bunnies. And kitties too.

Now I get a hold of this idea and make it my own.

I'm so evil.

*He asked why gerald went "Splort!" and not "Boing!"

Ah well....

female studies

Well, this was the original concept of my avatar prostrated. Even though I sort of wanted her to look all weak and wobbly-kneed, it wasn't quite right.

So I did some female figure studies. Yes, I messed around.

Piano Player


I thought of the Phantom of the Opera. But will BIG pipes and stuff...


For some reason, he evolved into a velocioraptor-type thing.


I love drawing the little attacks. I guess it's to tend to my evil little fevered mind. >:)

Yes. We all wuv Cthulu.

ethereal muse

Here's some of the stuff I've been working on.

Animated mannequins. I shudder because of some disturbing Silent Hill imagery that went through my head.


The latter version of one of the concepts of The Daughter as a family of mid-bosses.


This was my original concept for The Daughter. I imagined all the piano lessons that I was
subjected to..... I wanted to play guitar... boo hoo.*
*I'm joking. I wish I still could play piano.


Original thumbnails for the Zoo level.

These are sketches of the zoo level. I had an idea since everyone is going super organic in regards to zoo creatures, I thought adding some mechanization to a zoo animal would be disturbing.



This is one of my sketches for a squirrel enemy. I was thinking of that Animal Planet show of the squirrel that would randomly drop out of trees to bite people before they had to 'euthanize it'. A squirrel screaming bloody murder as it divebombed you would be kind of a neat idea.

Birth of Athena

I've always loved Athena. Actually, I think I do look like her. You know, the serious face, the stare, and the nose especially. Oh yeah, dark hair. XD

No, it couldn't possibly have anything to do with her being a goddess of wisdom and war, now COULD it? ;)

Anyways, I just wanted to capture a study of how Zeus' face looked like at the agonizing split to his skull and the horrible headache. (Remember labor in your brain? I remember most of my women friends relegated to me of THEM giving birth.)

betta parrot thing


I saw a picture of someone's betta and a PARROT came to mind.

Now I think it's this parrot thing here. I wonder if anyone played the original Altered Beast, you'd probably know which enemy that I was speaking of.

Adan and Lego


Now, whenever my friend Michico and I speak, we talk cats.
Not talk LIKE cats, about cats. I know, but cats are very fascinating to me in different ways that I won't bore anyone here about.
But, she told me when she got a new kitten and this is the meeting between her resident cat with this new individual.
If you wonder what the 'stick' is, it's just a verbal reprimand. When she and I talk about reprimanding we go, 'use stick'. So, it's a figurative form of speech.

cthulu priestess/bride


I drew an original Cthulu princess/bride, but I really seriously didn't like it.
Now, this is so much the better. I love finding the perfect reference for such things.
I will paint this when I feel more in tune, although I do have the colors in my mind, but I think I'm formulating the brushstrokes and combination.
