WHAT?!

2010-12-14T21:38:00.000-08:00

Where have I been???? HERE! I have a lot of new stuff to post but haven't had the time (I'm just lazy) to post it, but soon! Til' then enjoy my random findings and shenanigans on my other blog.

New leaf!

2010-11-02T21:32:00.001-07:00

So I'm finally off Oz and it's expected to ship this Friday (hopefully)! I'm on a new project which hasn't been named yet but so far it's been pretty good. It's cool that this time around I'm leading the direction of the art (art lead ^__^) this time around, but with great power comes great responsibility!

I've been working pretty hard but it's been worthwhile. I don't have anything to really post right now, maybe later but soon!

It's electric!

2010-10-20T20:25:00.000-07:00

Hmmm the video hangs in some places, kinda weird. I don't know, you get the idea!

WIP!

2010-10-18T18:49:00.000-07:00

long time no post! Some in progress death animation, yay!

DONE!

I've said too much!

2010-10-08T00:32:00.000-07:00

Vile more eviler!!!

2010-09-29T23:08:00.000-07:00

Chinese devil, well vampire to be percise.

2010-09-01T02:03:00.000-07:00

I've come back to the caricatures, finally! This is the initial sketch of my friend Nick Leung as a Chinese vampire. Right now I'm pretty satisfied with the lines so expect color soon! I'll probably paint him blue-ish like the vampires you see in old Chinese movies. If you're not familiar with them, Google it!

Sooo the painted one looks nothing like the drawing, haha. But that's okay because the painted looks more like him anyway. I rushed it a bit, but that's alright, I'm sure I'll plan the next one better!

SPARKS!!!

2010-08-20T15:21:00.000-07:00

Long time no post! Here's a video of some quick spark animations looped three times for your enjoyment!

Meoowwwwwwww...

2010-08-05T00:28:00.000-07:00

Kalidah in progress!

MAX POWER!!!

2010-07-27T19:37:00.000-07:00

Detail

Continuation of the caricatures! The top photo is what I went off of to get his likeness and then I just added some crazy color. I'm trying to push the shapes more, which I'm sure I'll achieve over time, but for the most part they're pretty fun to do. A nice way to relax and make fun of your friends :).

Mah face!

2010-07-24T22:09:00.001-07:00

So I've been looking at a lot of caricature artists as of late and was inspired to do a portrait of myself. Although it's far from what is probably considered a real caricature, haha. Either way I'm semi happy with it. I learned a lot and it was fun so that's all that really matters.

WIP

2010-07-22T18:29:00.001-07:00

I'm finally doing something unrelated to work! Wahoo!!! Anyway, I'm not really sure what to call this....The Cottage? Forest Cottage? I don't know, The Cottage sounds too much like an M. Night Shyamalan movie. In any case this is what I have so far. Hopefully I'll be done soon!

Witch steam!

2010-07-20T19:05:00.000-07:00

Airlock. Time to breathe motha' fucka'!

2010-07-14T21:51:00.000-07:00

My friend Gerrin is making a pretty cool sci-fi short film called Airlock and he asked me to design a logo for him. The logo is for a genetic company within the short called Covax. I'm not sure if they'll end up using it but they seem to like it. This probably won't be the final colors but it give you an idea of what it will be.

ouhh ouhh ee ee!!

2010-07-14T00:17:00.001-07:00

New monkey, well monkey being redone. I've been getting a lot of good use from the splatter brush with fur and what not so looks like I'll be using it more!

update, so i got done, one is angry(im sure you can tell) and the other is when you gain THE POWER OF THE FLYING MONKEYS!!! Also I posted a detail shot.

feeeebzz

2010-07-09T00:46:00.000-07:00

Godmother revisisted (and partner as well, later on.)

2010-07-06T18:38:00.001-07:00

We're redoing the godmother and partner!

The eyes, they pierce me!!!

2010-07-01T18:40:00.000-07:00

The bottom video is what I drew in Flash and then the top one is after messing with different glows and layer effects!

New warp for a new VIle.

2010-06-29T18:37:00.000-07:00

This isn't too different from the original apart from Vile's base image getting an overhaul and not being so static when he's covered in his green energy.

The Vile see's all!

2010-06-29T18:22:00.001-07:00

2010-06-09T22:05:00.000-07:00

Tinman, Scarecrow, and Vile! More characters! Updated

2010-05-29T13:01:00.000-07:00

So far....

2010-05-18T19:15:00.000-07:00

These characters aren't done yet but are close!

New Direction

2010-05-12T18:18:00.000-07:00

Big ol' Concept DUMP!

2010-05-08T15:45:00.001-07:00

So we're working on a new game and I'm sure you can guess what it's about from these pictures. This is all the concepts I've done so far for it. Usually I'd post these as I go along but I guess it's a nice change of pace to just unload all of them in one big post, which I'm sure I'll do again once the rest of characters are drawn and then painted. Nothing here is completely final so stuff might change but not too much.

There's some old art from the previous game in a couple images, which sucks in hindsight, but that's how it always goes. I actually did paint two characters to completion but then just switched over to concepting it all, which I should have done from the beginning -_-. The Tin man went through a lot of changes, and he's not fully painted yet but it's good enough for right now to get the point across (his heart door is off, and I have yet to change it. I'm lazy!).

There's one background in the images which was done by the lovely old man Matt Hayhurst. Anyway, I hope you like them!

kwhat?

2010-05-04T18:34:00.001-07:00

hmmmmmmmm

2010-04-12T23:46:00.000-07:00

2010-04-04T22:47:00.000-07:00

What????

2010-04-03T09:41:00.001-07:00

Hmmmmmm what is this?!

Witch is gonna burn!!!!

2010-03-29T23:03:00.000-07:00

HANSEL!

2010-03-29T22:56:00.001-07:00

DONE!

Oh hi Hansel!

2010-03-25T22:24:00.001-07:00

Hansel is such a rube.

2 down 4 to go!

2010-03-23T18:11:00.000-07:00

Witch and Gretel, gotta paint Hansel now. The hawt bg done by the uber-hawt Jacob Weberg.

This witch will eat your face!

2010-03-17T18:40:00.001-07:00

Almost done. I gotsta' do sum' more works on it!
Done! well, almost I have to light it now, but Jacob takes FOREVER...........not!

Down we go, where we stop, NO ONE KNOWS!!!!

2010-03-12T22:12:00.001-08:00

Alice, why oh why do you have to always start trouble?

Sista's update!

2010-03-02T21:16:00.001-08:00

Almost done! I should be done tomorrow! Done!

boosh, more energy!

2010-03-01T18:32:00.001-08:00

This animation happens in the beginning of the game intro. These books fly off the shelves and are warped into energy and fly off with villain. What a bastard!

STOP THAT CLICKING

2010-02-26T23:33:00.000-08:00

This is what happens when you click too much, served!

Sista's!

2010-02-25T21:29:00.000-08:00

Alice and her sister. I think this is supposed to be the end of the game! Oh my god now you know the ending!!! The background was done by the lovely Jacob Weberg. I think it looks fantastic, love the colors. I think I'm halfway done, possibly. They aren't going to be that size. Usually I just make them huge so if they need to be shrunk then there isn't a problem.

King me!

2010-02-19T17:51:00.000-08:00

If I were married to the queen I drew then I would look like this too! Almost done, I probably should post the finished knave but seeing how I am dizamn tired it will have to wait til' another day.

Knave, Jack, whatever.

2010-02-17T18:10:00.000-08:00

ALMOST DONE! God damn I'm tired. Our building sits in the afternoon sun and I know it will be hell on earth come summer T_T...

1 down 2 to go!

2010-02-16T18:25:00.000-08:00

Got the queen done earlier this morning. I don't know how I feel about it. I guess I like it, not sure. In any case, maybe I'll be able to get the Knave done tomorrow!

Fuck it, I don't want to deal with tumblr!

2010-02-15T22:17:00.000-08:00

So I used Tumblr for a couple days, and fuck I hate it. I'm just gonna have to bite the bullet here and deal with google's wonky video. I absolutely hate Vimeo for the fact that you have to wait for your videos to be uploaded. I'm not looking to share it so there's no point for me to upload to them.

I guess I forgot to mention that in order for you to display videos on Tumblr you have to either link them or upload them to Vimeo and then it will link to your Tumblr account.

Screw that shit. Google has it right for what I need it for. Anyway, I'm back, with egg on my face. This is the card I made for my fiancee for Valentine's Day. Enjoy!

Switching to Tumblr, for now!

2010-02-13T10:42:00.000-08:00

Until Blogger gets this video situation sorted out, I will be posting on my tumblr blog. Same name, just different URL. The only fix they really have is when you publish a post or edit a post it works for a certain amount of time. That's lame. So until via con dios!

animationyo.tumblr.com

2010-02-11T20:08:00.000-08:00

Almost done with the queen, about half way there. I might add a cape type thing to make her feel a little more legit, or maybe not. we shall see! I also have to add something to her hair because right now they look like testicles!

Videos not working....

2010-02-10T07:45:00.000-08:00

Well It's been a while now and the videos aren't fixed. I don't want to switch blog providers but if this keeps up I might have to :(.

warp the hell in

2010-02-09T21:20:00.000-08:00

So i wanted this to look sort of like when the death eaters warp around butttttt it didnt really look like it. I wish I had more time to mess with it!

splosion'!

2010-02-01T18:27:00.001-08:00

So today I started working on some animation for our upcoming game. This is pretty much a rough of it and a glimpse at what is to come. I should have roughed it all out but I got caught up in small details -_-, which I always seems to find myself doing. I'm happy so far with it, but gotta keep pushin' it!

almost donneeee.....

2009-11-04T08:58:00.000-08:00

I always seem to change the faces of my characters when I paint them in, but then again it's a process and nothing is ever definite. But there are exceptions like the cook. She didn't change much from her initial design. I'm nearing the end of this character, a little more things here and there and rendering out the baby and his mad face.

rrrabit

2009-10-26T18:45:00.001-07:00

update!

*last update til' it's finished!

done until i have to light it for the bg!

this time around i decided to just draw in photoshop. really rough black lines. all the information is there and also in my head so i dont really need to clean it up(unless i wanted a sexy line drawing, but who's really gonna care besides me!). he isn't really the traditional white rabbit but it works. i'll probably still tweak things here and there though.

cook me your face

2009-10-20T18:36:00.001-07:00

the cook so far, i fucked up on the nose so i had to redo it in the last half hour of work! ahhhhh!!!

update

*fixed, peter stop pointing things out! :3
done

alice

2009-10-19T21:01:00.001-07:00

I might still play around with this, not sure yet. if not then it's pretty much done.

yeahhhh she changed cause my inital drawing didn't work -__-. also she's supposed to be standing in a door way if you're wondering why she has some crazy light bouncing off the junk in her trunk.

meoowwww

2009-10-15T23:52:00.000-07:00

meoooowwww, halfway done.

pretty much done, small things here and there but yeah.

done........almost!

2009-10-14T22:13:00.001-07:00

This is pretttty much done. I have to get rid of the retarded white outline, fix some black lines that are left.

half way there....

2009-10-13T18:34:00.000-07:00

halfway done, should be done tonight, hopefully!

meow

2009-10-09T21:19:00.000-07:00

I still need to mess with this one a bit, but maybe I'll just fix it while I paint the damn thing.

dutchess and baby

2009-10-08T19:46:00.001-07:00

i think i might have to fix a few things but done for the most part.

Godmother

2009-10-07T22:03:00.000-07:00

Glitter, sprinkles, dust, what more do you want?

Sexy Ass Cook

2009-10-07T22:00:00.000-07:00

The cook, hotter than ever. Yes yes I know who she looks like.

VILLAIN

2009-10-06T20:21:00.000-07:00

Not sure if i'm supposed to even post work stuff, but i'm sure they don't care. minor stuff to fix, then color explosion!

..........

2009-10-02T18:47:00.000-07:00

so this is pretty much done, maybe some touch ups here and there. i guess i can always still play around with it.

Painting is retardly hard.

2009-10-01T00:58:00.000-07:00

Bleh, painting is hard like a rock. First time I've digitally painted since school I think. Concept stuff for a game, trying to get the style down, hopefully it works out.

a little more time put in, a little more love. love transcends all. i'm tired.

2009-03-25T01:45:00.000-07:00

Jabuh-ja-jeeezzus! Why I haven't posted anything is beyond me but it shall stop here and now. To your left, a weirdo monkey. To the right some stuff I'm throwing around.

Time to get SERIOUS.

2009-01-30T00:06:00.001-08:00

I'm gonna try and stop doing random sketches and focus those sketches on animation and/or my animation shorts! So hopefully I can pump out more animations in the near future. Woop!

Boing!

2009-01-14T22:13:00.000-08:00

-Cd.
