Scratchin - Randoms...

Trying out a more graphic style...

Mecha in a head-dress...

French Fry Head on patrol...

And this is how we lost Jimmy...

Hoppers & Rigs

A few rendered hopper ideas...

General Gond Sprigg Longtooth

Many goblin wars have been started over that cocked (yes i said it) hat. Goblins after all are silly creatures and will look for any excuse with which to fight.

General Longtooth, a veteran of many campaigns, outlived many of his predecessors. However upon procuring the famed cocked hat was assassinated during the sitting for the portrait.

The hat and its curse live on, but the goblins haven't quite figured out that if you possess the hat then you'll most likely wind up dead.

2nd in my series of Goblin Generals. Will have to see about painting a third. This was a good challenge for painting for me. More hair studies, and my goodness are feathers hard to paint or what? Fabric and metals and skin, oh my! Learning lots and having a ball all the way!

Cheers!

Scratchin - Hopper Mech Thumbs

Exploration of some enemy types (hopper mechs) for a platform adventure game that I have in my head. Feels good to just spam out ideas for exploration and not put too much pressure on myself. These were fun to do. Small sticky note pad and .4mm gel pen. I think you can expect to see some of these rendered up... stay tuned!

 

Also the next Goblin General is almost complete... weeeeeee!

General Argot Stonemaw III

General Argot Stonemaw III

I am thinking that there could almost be a series of these goblin generals coming...

Rock Goblin

I may not have made the sketch session tonight but I did this instead...

oh man now i have Rock Lobster in my head...

With or Without Caption?

Midnight Raid- Color

Man, why is coming up with a blog or pic title always so difficult??!

It took me some time to get the colors working for me on this one... probably still needs a fair bit of work done to it but I like the direction so far...

Hammer and Teeth - Now in Technicolor!

Ok so after some playing with colors etc here is what will be my final before I get my critique from Jake. Really looking forward to hearing what he has to say.

Someone suggested I should create a poll of who would win this epic battle and then create the after image. So have at it! Who wins?!?!

You've made her angry...

That is one gutsy hunter... She does not look happy...

Another piece that is just about ready for a colour pass. Spent most of the time tonight trying to fix up the anatomy of the legs on the dragon/dinosaur thingy... Still not sure if its 100% but i think we're gettin close! :D

Faces... Faces everywhere...

Faces... faces everywhere...

Hammer and Teeth

I started this a little while back with the mentorship with Jake and after all the critiques I have finished with this. Pretty happy with how this is turning out and I have been learning a whole lot.

Next step.... Colour!

Comments and Crits welcome, and for those who didnt realise, you can click on the image to get the larger view.

Stay tuned for the other pieces to be finished too!

Ro-Bo-Cro

Probably one of my favorite sketches from my current sketchbook...

Bored... Dragon!

What else am I supposed to do while I am bored? Probably one of the first full dragons I've ever really drawn... methinks I need to practice my animal anatomy...

Wierdwood Library

Luke Minaker asked me to help design a crazy fantasy library design for his project and this is how it ended up. I painted this over a basic 3D plate. There are still somethings wrong with it but overall I'm happy with it. I may end up coloring it at some stage.

Platformer Designs

A couple of designs from a platformer project I was designing and fleshing out... maybe I will finish this one day...

Refining Environments

Taking the environment thumbs from the first post, I am refining these into more finalized pieces which Jake Collinge is helping me to do.

Gonna try and work on the other thumbs next week. Stay tuned for updates...

Crits and Comments always welcome...
