Vritra Maquette - Beginning Stage

About last week or so, my good friend Alicia and I got together at my house and had a maquette making party, and of course, happily began working on our maquettes. Pictured here is a maquette of my character Vritra from my WIP graphic novel currently entitled The Guardians Trilogy. I wanted to do something a little different from the standard boring base and made an environment piece to correspond with my character. It's been turning out surprisingly well since it's my first time doing so.

Start of his wire skeleton:



Foiling up:




Laying down the sculpy (starting with the rock and then the rest of the character):



Finally got to wiring the feet (which took about a couple of days to do):




Finished all four. Onto putting sculpy on them.



The face will be next. Just slowly working my way through the other details.

Character Doodle - Wyatt


Another doodle based drawing, and this time is a longtime character of mine, a ferret named Wyatt. He is the main character of a series of children's graphic novel series I've been working on for over a ten years. Most of his story is still in development and have been constantly tweaking it on and off (he's even survived through several name changes), but I really like his character design so far. There will be more concept art from this project in the near future as I've been working on designs for the rest of the characters in the series. Until then, enjoy this first look at our mischievous troublemaker.

Adventure Time - Super High Five Time

Been awhile since I posted some art, mostly pertaining to sketches and finished artwork per week. And this week, I give you... Fionna and Cake, Finn and Jake's gender-flipped counterparts from Adventure Time!


Inspired by the episode "Five Short Garyables," specifically Finn and Jake pulling off the Super Ultimate High Five. I wanted to draw it, but this time with Fionna and Cake, and the end result is this.
