Sunset Rising

Monster girls are my favorite thing.
Also when exactly did blogger update it's posting/image uploading interface?  It's waaaay better now!

PS. I also have a tumblr now, if you want to follow me there:

Panya- All Grown Up

Panya is my little adventurous sphinx-girl character. Generally she looks like a little bitty kitten sphinx, but I decided to draw her all grown up. This is another drawing from a few sketchbooks ago.

That Moon Again

Was feeling out of sorts. Decided to color a sketch from my sketchbook.

Haven't really done anything "painty" like this for a long time.  Feels good.

Darius OP

Dance too hilarious. Nerf Darius.

Soak it up.

For a friend. She's my coolbro.

Sketchbook pages.

Here are some.
I'm still trying to figure this new scanner out.

League Related Fanart

Most of my videogame related spare time is now spent "pwning noobs." Occasionally I have drawn fanart for said noob-pwning venue (League of Legends). Mostly this means taking ridiculous new skin ideas from the forums, and drawing them for people. These are from December, so I thought I would share.

In reaction to all of the sexy-outfit female champ skins, we have....

Nobody does lonely hearts day better than the bitterest lady in the League.

A good idea and a terrible idea, at the very same time:



S'all I got for now. Take care!

Global Game Jam 2012

On the weekend I participated in the 48hr Global Game Jam again this year (it is my third one), this time in Atlanta! I'm visiting my bf right now, so I'm hanging out in the US for a few months. I gotta say, it doesn't feel like the February I am used to.

Anyhow, the Atlanta site was huge... there were over 200 people, making it the 2nd largest one in the world. Around 35 games were made. The theme this year was (a picture of) the snake eating it's tail - Ouroboros. For some reason it was a lot harder to think of game ideas for this theme. I teamed up with Jay and our friend Josh from Florida who flew up for the weekend. We brainstormed all friday night, Josh wrote a prototype for one idea... and then Sat. morning we threw everything out and started over. The game we ended up making was "Horizon." It's a 2 player game, where both players depend on eachother in order to keep going.

Blood and stars to maintain the circle:

Anyway it was a lot of fun... I got to make a game again. Keeping busy still... Currently I am working on a short film and doing some freelance animation stuff for a game with Mandy. I also have a good half a sketchbook filled since I got here, but no real way to scan any of it.

Stay Toasty

Housewarming gifts for my brother.

From awhile ago, but it's new to YOU, right?



Stay toasty warm and eat lots of desserts. Happy holidays!

It's Tryndamere. He always looks like this.

MY RIGHT ARM IS A LOT STRONGER THAN MY LEFT ARM.

Cactii

I got approached by an old FFXI friend to do some logo work for his translation company, Cactus Leaf Translations. It actually ended up being a lot of fun! You can check out his site here: http://cactusleaf.co

Here's the process from start to finish.

Sun Tigers

For Janell and Aniket. Who got married and lived happily ever after. :] Except they were already pretty happy to begin with.

Bonus concept sketches:

September Sketches

Wow it's been awhile. Sorry. Here are some sketchbook things to tide you over. I am working on a couple of projects right now. There have been some computer upgrades and technical issues, but fingers crossed, things look to be stable now.

Super Mario 3DS has Tanooki Goombas. This is a level of great that I was not immediately prepared to handle.




I would scan more sketchbook pages, but my scanner is so old that it can't run under Windows 7, and my MB is so new, that it doesn't like running Windows XP.

Patience

Goombas.



Just messing around with a sketch.

Nyancake!

For my birthday... my brother made me a cake!


You may all be jealous now.

Also:

Pixel stuff.

Remember, self, paint faster.

Working on it.
Next time compose something in advance, too.
Noted.

Pixel Kitty!

For Rachel.


Also a pixel environment, for fun.

Spritely, now!

Progress continues on the sprites for the D&D game. I still like the Atari-esque ones, but these are fun too. Pixel art is so different from the way that I normally work, that it has definitely been a learning experience.



Anyway, having fun with them, and thought I would share.

Happy Mother's Day!

To you, and to the person whose womb you emerged from.

Dream Paladin

Some stuff from a few months ago, when I was working on something.
