Matree-D

these are some attempts at designing the matree-d. Gonna clean-up and build a working model today. *untill i get the urge to play wii for like 15 hours straight.

More background stuff...

I screwed around with a few things from the 1st attept. I didn't like the black lines on the original, so I colored the lines and changed the floor, and put some reflections in... and textured the walls a bit more. I also ditched the detail on the stuff in the dining room. This new background will allow the characters to stand out more, because they have a black line around them.

Background Update

So I fianally got around to whipping up a background for this short i'm doing. This is the restaraunt lobby. I threw in some furhairman portraits on the walls along with a pic of "ten second statue". I may change the colors, but this is the winner for now. Here is the rough sketch, and the clean final.

life painting

Here are some lifedrawing paintings from the summer. I had been neglecting the blog, so I thought i'd put em up. It was my 1st attempt at life painting. Usually I just use charcoal and chalk, but these are watercolor. These were 30 min. poses.

New Design

So this is the new design for the pregnant girl. As much as I liked the ragged tired look of the original design, this one leaves more room for facial expressions. ...more to come

builds built

So, heres some cleaned up character builds. I think its triplets.

back to my roots

Here is Barry Masonite. Sketched at work...

short shorts update.

Hey there. So heres an update on whats going on with some cartoon shorts i'm in the middle of making. A new idea for a short came to me a few days ago. It's a "Teen-Wolf" inspired short. The punchline is based on my assumption that everyone has an intimate knowledge of "Teen-Wolf". And lets face it... who doesn't?? If you own a television set and are old enough to speak then you have seen teen wolf. It replays somewhere every few months or so. If you havent seen it, then I encourage you to rent it today.

But the bottom line is that my "teen wolf" short will be ready soon. Voice recording and storyboards are pretty much done. Animation will follow shortly.

Sketch

Sometimes at work its good to draw a new furhairman. Sometimes an even newer furhairman comes out of that furhairmans mouth.

"The Proposal"

Hey all,

I've been working on some more shorts. I thought of 3 new ideas for super short shorts. (like daisy dukes!) So I started doing a scene from one of the ideas. This is a clip from "The Proposal" don't blink or you'll miss it.

This was a test run for line wight and flat coloring. I will be recording what little dialogue I need to record next. So keep checking back.

Girl Pants

Hey people. Here is a screenshot from the storyboard of a short i'm working on called "girl pants". I'm not totally sold on the character design yet, but whatever.

Frebuary

Hi all. I recently was asked to help out a friend make an album cover for a recording contest that he was doing. He had to record 35 minutes of music in the month of February. The album is called Frebuary, and the link to the contest website is www.rpmchallenge.com ...anyway here is the album art ruff and clean.

don't stand so close to me

seriously dude, back the f**k up.

Seeped into my subconscience

People have said that a few furhairmen that i have drawn seem to look alot like other characters. You can judge for yourself. But any resemblance is strictly unintentional.
