A-fishy-A-fishy-A-fishy OOooohhh,

A cool down sketch from last night.

Notepad doodles

Decided to do some sketching on some notepad paper that was handy. I haven't used markers in forever, so   anyhoo here are some efforts from last night.

Had some trouble trying to make this one work. I wanted cold looking ghosties, which didn't work so well, so thanks to the excellent Pascal Campion for helping me see the right path on this one.

Damn giant squid....

American Duchess

While looking for research images for period costume for the 1790's I found a photo of Lauren. It was from her blog American Duchess. Lauren's blog is a fantastic resource for period clothing and her own work in making some of this clothing is stunning so I strongly encourage you to check it out.
I'd like to thank Lauren for her kind permission to post this image.
This is was painted using Photoshop CS.

Rainy morning

Blue spirits

It's BLUE!

Have you seen my dad?

 Pencil sketch with quick PS treatment below. The thoughts that pass through my mind when paddling close to an underwater rock.

Going to do another I think, with stronger composition.

Sunday, May 22nd

We're all still here I guess...

Saturday, May, 21st, 2011.

The world ends today at 6pm...that's 6:30 in Newfoundland.

Hope you all have a nice rapture tomorrow  today...keep an eye out for Dirty Jesus as he becomes "...Judge Judy and Executioner.." (Nick Frost, Hot Fuzz)

I know this might offend some folks...but can't please everyone.

Some rough sketches from today

I felt his face was a little too lopsided so I made it a little more symmetrical.

Last night's sketches

Dude was looking kind of angry in the one below, so I cheered him up a jot and added some tone.

Here are are some of the sketches from last night. Harry Potter's looking a little older and worse for wear. Dumbledoor looks like he's got a can of whoopass to open...

More evening sketches with some colour added

Been meaning to do some scary monsters for a while. 

I don't draw superheroes that often, but I do like Bats. I did this unfinished sketch and added a dash of colour for the lark.

Some more evening sketches

 Pencil and refillable water brush.

Even more from the Grantham's Landing figure drawing group.

Most all of these are drawn on reclaimed script pages from various projects. you can see the type on the back in some of the,

All drawn with either, pencil, Sharpie or brush pen.

Princess

So, the second of the Battle of the Planets characters. Princess.

Quickie for today

Just a quickie.

You can't see me

If you've ever seen moose in the wild, then you know what this is all about.

Tiny busts some heads

Battle of the Planets had to have been my favourite show when I was a kid. Ridd Sorensen has been doing some awesome pieces of the characters from this show. I thought I'd take a quick crack at Tiny. If this show had been developed these days, I think the 'ground and pound' style of fighting would be Tiny's bag.

Deviant Art

Hey hoo. On the recommendation of Mr. Sorensen I set up a DA account. If you'd like to check it out, please do.
