Smodart

So Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier of the Smodcast are having this art show at this gallery in LA and there's a contest for fans of the Smod to do an "art of smodcast". Here's the entry I'm working on:

It's kind of a smattering of all things smodcast, and done digitally because I was working my way through the archives while I was brainstorming ideas, and doing it in Photoshop seemed the best thing to do so I could cut/paste thumbnails, move 'em around, resize, etc. The things I've "Inked" so far are Schekkie, the Nazi-engineered weiner dog, the newspaper that's going to have a headline reading "Bryan Johnson: Crazed Shit-Eater", Scott Mosier as "The Scarlet Shrieker", the Harry Potter "Forgeticus" charm, and Kevin Smith and the parasite that takes over his cock and demands blood. Yep, lots of interesting things talked about in smodcast =D

MR Poster WIP

Omfg, this thing is taking forever. Holy crap. I don't think I've ever done anything with so many damn characters before x.x

Flipside cover final!

Eek! The final version! I am so psyched with how it came out, especially Maytag (the blond girl). To view more of the lineart by the utterly amazing Brion Foulke, check out Flipside--a totally awesome webcomic.

WIP: Flipside Cover

So to bolster my colorist portfolio, I'm playing around with coloring things done by different artists. This time, it's the chapter cover for the webcomic Flipside--a GREAT comic that everyone should check out, even if some parts are nsfw. In any event, here's a sneak:

I am sooo psyched with how this is looking so far! So cute! Since pretty much everything in the foreground is really warm and saturated, I decided to balance it with that light blue for the background. So far I'm kinda digging it, but I haven't made up my mind entirely quite yet. In any event, it's fun playing around with a more "painted" style! ^^

Continuation of my Mid-level city. There's so many things I forgot to include in the sketch that I find myself creating specifically for the digital version. As a result I can only work on this thing a little at a time because there's soooooo much stuff and the computer is a tedius thing to ink with (now gimme a brush and a micron, and then we're talkin). However, it would've ben nearly impossible to ink with this level of detail traditionally, even with a lightbox, as not only is the sketch insanely messy, but the details would kill my poor eyes (thankfull, Photoshop has a zoom tool!) So yeah, for your enjoyment, some details:

Sort of a work in progress of Nico from Runaways. Wanted to practice a painting style, so this one was 100% digital. Sadly, everything but the face and some of the hair is really rough, but maybe one day I'll finish it!Hair+Face detail.

Work in progress

Work in progress cityscape (sort of) that I'm working on for my concept art portfolio. I decided to digitally ink this one since the original sketch is sooo messy I'd destroy the paper trying to erase the pencil lines. Sadly, this is only like, a small corner of it...
