Extras...





So now that all the mains are set in stone ( just not built yet ), I decided to tackle the secondaries. Here are 3 versions of the boss. I tried to keep him as nerdy gamer as possible with a touch of successful.

Hope you like.

UPDATED:

The first guy's the boss. Second is a character called cool Tim ( he's cool ). The third is a run o' da mill douchy guy.

Last Dee?...

Could this be the final Dee? Who knows? But I think so. Or she's super close.

Dee and other Dees...

Here's a mix of what we liked with the other 2 versions of Distraction Girl. The helmet was starting to look a little on the big side so I think it's getting replaced by a good ol' hero mask. That thing on the far right's a shield from the front.

Cheers.

Dee is for Distraction Girl


This is Dee as her superhero self ( or the first version of ). She's basically a law inforcer on her home planet. She does something mac-nasty ( hush hush ) and looses her powers ( and sense of fashion ). Enjoy.

Fox and Hope...



Here's a drawing I did for a friend's b'day. It's from an idea he had a while ago. Cheers.

Joe Average and the gang...





So here's the gang. Joe, Nixxon, and Dee ( originally Distraction Girl until she lost her powers ).

Stay tuned for adventures with accident prone Joe and he and his best friend Nixxon ( who's not necessarily smarter, but just a little more... observant ) in a world where supeheroes run rampant like superstars, are on all smutt mags like superstars, and get the highest privileges like superstars... ok, they're the superstars of this world.

And meet the fallen Amazon from her home planet of [ not decided yet ]. Dee joins the gang when her peers decide she doesn't deserve her powers anymore ( maybe she should have kept it in her pants ).

To be continued?... *bah bah baaaahhhhhhh*

PS - the sketches are of Dee in her supersuit ( so I guess it should be Distraction Girl's supersuit... but don't tell anybody her identity or she'll pound ya a good one )

Desert Fields...

Ok so I've been keeping myself busy over the weekend. Practice practice practice.

Finished version coming soon... ish.

Cheers.

Life and it's details...


Alright, so now I'm trying my hand at painting. It started as a speed painting challenge. Then 2 or 3 attempts after, it changed to BG speed painting. Then whatever category this would be in.

The composition's weird but I wasn't really thinking finished project when I started it. But then I saw this fine artist's work ( [link] ) and got inspired.

As frustrating as it was to start, I like the process now and will keep plugging at it.

Hope y'all like it.

Cheers.

Mmmm, watery...

So I've decided to get back into actual paints. My favourite medium has always been water colours for both look and approach. I always find that it's quite the challenge to make it do what you want it to but well worth it if you know how.

I'm ok with what came out considering how long it's been since I touched it but there's still a long road ahead.

Hope you likes.

Cheers.

Unipegafuzzytailephant the 3rd...

A group of local cubs came into our studio the other day. Being one of the only employees left in the building I was quickly surrounded by tiny people wondering how we did things.

When it came time to show them that we can draw on tablets they started shouting ( some right next to my ears ) what they wanted to see.

One thing led to another and this guy was born... in a much more sketchy design.

Then I made him better. It was fun to see/hear the weirdo ideas they had. Such imagination yet still too young to join the industry... oh well.

Hope you like.

Wipeout the commission...


Here's the second commission I've been working on for a friend. It was quite the challenge cause I'm not used to rendering BGs like this but I think I managed :D

It was definitely fun to challenge myself like that though. Everybody should be doing that if you ask me.

Cheers.

More Smod Please...


Here's another Smodcast related drawing I'm working on for fun.

Kitty Pryde the second...


This is the second version of the Kitty Pryde challenge my friends and I ( well, mostly them... I kinda jumped on the bandwagon later on :) gave ourselves. The first was to draw Kitty Pryde in our own style, coming out of a wall, and her dragon friend had to be in there somewhere.

This was my first one https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQRv0_1PNvvvx8wukZYgbcxplxvGnR9DIxoKvqjgGFYASVVUR0RSTMO54fFoo-mJ5vQgfOfnifvXc7oBCSgR-z0-3ivYqgDl97UoZ15MUrdDTIUHs6AU_pttmssW1PYnh3tRzL1WXsCys/s1600/Kitty+Pryde_01.jpg

The second version was of the same exact layout but in a style of the other's choice that, in their mind, would be opposite to our's. So they decided I should do a Golden Age/Silver Age comic style.

So here she is.

I based her a lot on the old Phantom Lady comics and then a mix of dinosaurs and monsters from the aera.

Hope you likes.

PS - If anybody has a good way of getting the pixelation to look good on the small scale, please let me know. I had a hard time getting a version small enough to upload but big enough to keep the details. Thanks in advance.

Supa Gurl...



This is Super Girl... duh. This is just another something to force myself to learn new techniques and skills so all you talented younglings ( that one's for you Ray ) don't have as easy a time stealing my job :P

UPDATED:

So the more I looked at the first SuperGirl, the more I hated her. And then I saw what my buddy Ray ( http://rocom.deviantart.com/ ) has been doing with female characters and really had to punch it up a bit... ok, a lot. So here's mark 2. Background to come later. And tweaks to come later too.

DO IT!!!

Merry Xmas little boy I don't know.


This one's for a little buddy of a buddy of Meeka's and me. Hope you likes.

Kitty Pryde


So some friends of mine ( [link] [link] and a lady who should really have a page on DA... ) challenge themselves to drawing tests with twists and things. I joined in on this month's one ( Kitty Pryde ) a little late but hey, wha'dya gonna do, right?This one was to setup Kitty Pryde going through a wall and throw in her little dragon friend. I've never really looked into her so this was fun. The next step is to do another one but in a totally different style. One that isn't your's. Should be fun.If anybody has a trick on how to do hair, I would looooove to hear it. I'm not at all confident with my approach ( and final product ). I was always one to draw bald heads or hats.Cheers.
