Back to sketches

I don't have much in the way of polished art to show off so I thought I would just throw out some sketches for ya'll. Don't know where this guy came from, but I like him anyway. Enjoy.

Mr. Ben

This was another character along with all the latest posts. His name is Mr. Ben and he was really funny. We needed kind of an Obi Won Kenobi type character (thus the name Mr. Ben). At times he was a hobo and at others he was a professor. At one point he was even a hobo pretending to be a professor trying to score some free food on campus. His advice got less and less wise but he was a blast to draw and write. Enjoy.

Pug Dog

This was another character created for the same game. Not so much a character as an obstacle really, but still he was darn fun to draw and color up. I was going for a pug dog look but it kind of got away from me. Not sure what type of dog he is now, but I still like him. Enjoy.

Rock

This a another character with the rest of this batch. His name was Rock. I loved this character. We came up with quite a backstory for him and an attitude and personality as well. He was so much fun and I'm really bummed he never went anywhere. Oh well, at least I can share him with you guys. Enjoy.

Mel

Here's another character for ya'll. This one is actually based on my wife's cousin. She's pretty cool and looks almost exactly like this. She's one of those cool people that just had to be drawn and put in a video game. She almost made it. Bummer. Enjoy.

Super hero

Another character. Just a fun skater guy. I really like the tire tread tattoos of his. enjoy.

Another Character

Here's another character that never made it. I'm bummed these didn't get in. Still I'm glad I'm able to show them now. Enjoy.

Karate

This is a character I designed for a video game that was never released. I thought this guy was still fun enough to find an audience so here he is. Enjoy.

Godzilla

So here's a drawing I did. I wanted to do several things with this drawing. I wanted to draw in a different medium, something I was unfamiliar with and something permanent, so I drew this whole thing up in ball point pen. Then I wanted to do just a large black and white drawing and try to fill the page with different shdes and tones. And then I just wanted to draw a big drawing of Godzilla, cause hey, who doesn't? Enjoy.

Samurai

Here's the last piece to accompany the geisha and the kung fu master. I'll post up the entire page later today, but for now here's the samurai. Enjoy.

Kung Fu Master

Here's this week's drawing. I'm trying to do a couple of them based on a similar theme. I'm currently working on a samurai as the last one in this little series. Hope ya'll enjoy.

Geisha

I'm a little late with this one, but I'm pretty happy with the results. What's more my wife is happy with this one. She's a much tougher judge than I am, so that makes me really pleased. Enjoy.

Goblin

Here's another colored pencil piece. It was weird working on black paper. I'm used to inking things up and then coloring it. Still I like the results. Wish the scan turned out better though. Enjoy.

Red Dragon

Here's the second piece of art of the year. I'm trying to do one a week. so far so good. enjoy.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year everyone! One of my new year's resolutions this year is to do a bit more art work. I'm going to try and do quite a bit of character stuff on my own time. So far so good eh? We'll see how it turns out.

This is Liza Hempstock. She's another character from the GraveYard book and she's one of my favorites. She's a witch that was buried in the unconsecrated section of the graveyard. I Thought her character was just a lot of fun and I'm pretty pleased with how this one turned out. More to come. Enjoy.
