Martian Pin up



I was inspired by an awesome pic of my friend dressed up as like a space rockin pin up girl and thought it would make a cool idea for a drawing.

Comic Book Cover



Surprise surprise, I like comic books. I thought it would be cool to try and do a mock cover. It was lots of fun to do this and I think I would like to improve on this kind of composition and maybe even do a couple comics of my own in the near future.

Pinup Sketch





I am a huge fan of pinup themed artwork but have never attempted it myself before. Its fun to work with these different themes and at the same time I am trying to work out the some sort of relationship between working with pencil and paper and working digitally. The first image is all penciled and inked traditionally and the second one is a line drawing and then the rest painted in photoshop .

Allan Quatermain


I was reading about the fictional character Allan Quatermain today and was inspired to do this one page comic in the vein of that character. I plan on reading some of the fiction and maybe be inspired to try something a little more long form...gulp.

Super Hero color treatments















My good pal Marvin Law is a comic book artist living in Toronto, Ontario. He created a great series of superhero pencil drawings that I was just dying to color....so a collaboration was born. You can check out Marvin's Art work at http://marvin000.deviantart.com/gallery/

Good Guys and Bad Guys















I have been trying to focus more on character drawing lately, so here are some sketches of some super type peeps. Couldn't draw some good guys without drawing some baddies as well....bad guys are always more fun to draw anyways. Beside trying out some character drawing I am also trying to work under a strict time limit and see how fast I can do these while keeping the quality. I think next i'll take one of the six characters and do a more detailed concept which i'll then use to base a 3d model from.

The second in the series of cool characters that I like is Akuma....what a bad ass. These are really fun and giving me some much needed drawing practice...hmmm, wonder who I should draw next?

Cartoony Wolverine


I love Wolverine (who doesn't?) and thought that I could use much more character drawing practice...So I thought that I would do a bunch of drawings over the next while, of different characters that I have always liked. Who are some cool characters from the annals of nerdism that you think need drawing?

Old Character Concepts



Character concepting has not always been my strong suit but its something that I am aggressively trying to improve. Here are some old concept sketches that I did for various projects. Hopefully the future will show how I have improved over these works.
