Genie Rockband

So I thought it would be fun to design a genie rockband. Here's what I came up with. Hope you enjoy. Thanks for stopping by!

Some Old and Some New

Here is a story test that I've been meaning to post for awhile now. After that is some design work, for two separate projects, I've been working on: a character sheet, some house/shop explorations and a couple of thumbnail comps. I'm working on some boards right now and I'll have those up in a couple of days. And after that will come the rest of the designs. Thanks to all who stop by and sorry for the long delays in posts! :)

Storyboard

Here is a storyboard sequence that I've been working on. I still want to fix some of the camera angles, but I thought I would post at least one board I've been working on.

Roughs

Wow, I really slack on updating this thing. Sorry! Well, here are some character roughs that I've been working on lately. They are for two different, unrelated projects. I still need to clean them up and paint them. But anyway, enjoy!

Update

I know it's been a long time. Sorry! My life's been really crazy, but when is it not. : ) Here are some pieces that I've been working on. I've been doing a lot more storyboards lately, so concept work, unfortunately, is happening a little slower. Maybe if I get a storyboard sequence that I actually like, I'll post a quicktime file of it up. We'll see... But I've got some really fun idea's that I'm working on for more concept work and I can't wait to start on them and post them up here. So I'll try and post more regularly, I know I say that all the time. Sorry! All of the images below are for a project for my BFA class at San Jose State University. They are inspired by the book Water for Elephants. I'm working on cleaning up the drawings a little more and painting the characters and the environments, so I'll post those up when I'm done too. Thanks for anyone who stops by. Happy Holidays! Take care!

New Update

Hey all, for anyone who actually looks at this site. : ) Sorry for the extremely long delay in posting. I've been so busy! But here are some projects I've been working on. I've been delving into storyboard over the past couple of months and its a TON! of work. I'm taking Kris's Pearn's storyboarding class on schoolism.com and Jeff B's story class at San Jose State. They are both a lot of fun!! I just need to get faster. Its really helping with my drawing ability as well, simply having to draw and figure out all the different poses and camera angles helps tremendously with drawing skills and viz dev work. Anyway, here's some new pieces. Thanks for anyone who comes to this site to look!



The story above was for Kris Pearn's storyboarding class on schoolism. It was the first introductory assignment and we had to come up with a story around 20 panels that showed who we are and where we come from. So I wanted to tell a story about my mom and me and how your relationship with your parents change and evolve throughout your childhood and into adulthood. So this ones for you mom! : ) Love ya!
The 9 panel storyboard above was for Jeff B's class at San Jose State. Each week he gives us one panel- the first panel is his drawing, with the caption bubble- and we have to fill in the other 8 panels with our own interpretation of the story. Its fun to see all the different ideas that people come up with.

These character designs are for a project that I am currently working on for my final semester at San Jose State. The story we are drawing our inspiration from is about a circus in the 1930's. These are my main characters, Marlena and her tiger.
The above image is a personal project that I've been working on in my spare time, which I wish I had more of...


This is a plein air landscape painting I did of place near brentwood. I need to work on my painting...sigh its so hard to find time for all you want to work...too much too do!

Anyway, that's it for now. Thanks for coming by!

New stuff- I know about time!

I know...I know...its been forever. Sigh what can I say, I made no promises to begin with to be on top of things in regards to this blog.

I have been incredibly busy if that counts for anything, but probably not. Anyway, here's some stuff I've been working on and some projects I want to pick up again, now that I have a few days of free time coming up. So here goes:

This is a project I had to put on hold for awhile, that I want to try and pick back up. I want to paint some of my favorite ones and than develop bodies/poses that fit their personalities.

Some props to go in the schematic that I posted on a previous date, a long, long time ago...

A schematic of sorts for a dwelling, for a project I am working on currently.

A layout drawing and value study of part of the interior of the dwelling above.

Now I must get back to work so I can post some more stuff (probably in another month, cause I am horrible at this blog thing...). Take care to whoever ends up reading this far!
