Voldemort

2011-04-28T01:48:00.001-07:00

Been scribbling some Harry Potter characters in my sketchbook, so I thought I would just play around with one of them and see what might happen. Hope it isn't too dark for your monitors.

April Life Drawing

2011-04-15T00:13:00.000-07:00

Sorry for the lack of posting. I still haven't done anything finished enough to want to post. Just been sketching randomness. Here are some 2 and 5 min life drawing sketches done this month to keep you going for a little longer.

Patrolling the aisle

2011-03-19T22:54:00.000-07:00

Took another scribble from my sketchbook and coloured away. I really need to figure out a better way to colour. This took longer than I would have liked for such a result. Guess I best practice more.

Work time scribbles

2010-12-12T16:20:00.001-08:00

Some random scribbles done while waiting for shots to render at work. I will try to get something better put up soon, but I have to get my butt in gear and make something worth posting :P.

Toadstool

2010-11-09T01:22:00.000-08:00

Sorry for the lack of posting. I have been doing a lot of sketching but nothing kind of finished. I was told to post something, so I finally grabbed one of my sketches and coloured away.

MMmm... Leaves

2010-10-14T14:07:00.000-07:00

I've been seeing far too many children cartoons on tv, so I have had the urge to see if I could do something in a more kid-ish style.

Dragon Attack

2010-09-14T15:29:00.000-07:00

A quick-ish sketch of an idea of a mexican desperado like guy shooting dragons that are going to attack a desert city.

LotR Line Up

2010-08-26T15:14:00.001-07:00

Here's a little character design of Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli. Let me know if you have any suggestions on what I can do to improve these or future designs.

Speed Sketch

2010-08-25T18:05:00.001-07:00

Too much Lord of the Rings! :P. Finally finished the books and I'm working on some LotR character re-designs, which I'll post later if they turn out okay, while watching the movie. Had the urge to quickly scribble out something and so here it is.

Mountains in the Mist

2010-08-17T23:34:00.000-07:00

Here is a painting I did for a contest a while back but I don't think it made it in, so now I can post it. This was my first time using an actual canvas since way back in high school.

The Windy Wizard

2010-07-21T17:56:00.001-07:00

Hi there. Here is a sketch I did a while ago that I have cleaned up and coloured in Flash. Had some help from some good friends, so I say thanks :)

Tidal Temptations

2010-07-16T10:42:00.000-07:00

Attempted a flash illustration with a character and background but got a little lazy at the end.

Clown

2010-07-07T15:41:00.001-07:00

Not super happy with this one but was still fun. I need to upgrade my colour sense.

Put on your Spectacles

2010-07-05T16:29:00.000-07:00

Another Flash character for the collection. Enjoy :)
PS if you have any ideas or suggestions on how I can improve more please post away.

Vampire Chicky

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

Just felt like trying a digital painting of a sketch I did a while ago. Still like the sketch better than the painting but hopefully with practice I will be able to keep the essences of the sketch but make it better with paint. Only time will tell I guess.

As the Train Goes By

2010-07-03T16:54:00.000-07:00

Painted a sketch I did a while ago and messed around with borders. Not really sure what I was going for but I had fun, so that's all that matters.

The Bully

2010-07-03T13:27:00.000-07:00

Hi there people. Here is another character design I made in Flash. There shall be more to come as long as I keep away from the many distractions around.

Messing In Flash

2010-06-25T13:14:00.001-07:00

Trying to do some more character designs and building in Flash. I have more characters in my sketchbook that I want to try to create, but I'm not the fastest at using Flash yet, so you will have to wait. I used a bit of Kid VS Kat as ref for this. I'm still learning though so critiques and comments are most welcome.

OMG Something New

2010-06-24T16:53:00.000-07:00

Figured I should post something. Here is a random Fish-man going fishing. Sorry for the ugly lines. I really need to figure out how to use vectors better, probably should have coloured it in Flash instead of Photoshop. Oh well... Enjoy.

Sketches from a Younger Me

2010-03-11T20:33:00.000-08:00

I just came into my computer room and found old exercise books on the desk from back in 1994-1995. I have no idea where they came from.
Anyways... I was flipping through them and thought I would share some of the sweet pictures I used to draw with all you fine people :)
Maybe this will take you back in time to the days of old school Mario, Yoshi, Sonic and Power Rangers. What a grand time that was.

Sketch'n

2010-02-13T20:37:00.000-08:00

I was scribbling the bottom right turtle things and then had some fun playing with different proportions and ages for this breed of creature.

A bit of a concept of a character my friend Joe came up with. You might see more of this guy if plans turn out.

Another Friend

2010-02-10T22:20:00.000-08:00

This time it's my friend Holly. Thankfully she wasn't smiling with an open mouth in the ref pic I choose because I have been having trouble with drawing open mouth smiles. They are hard to get to look normal.

More Friend Sketches

2010-02-08T00:13:00.000-08:00

I felt like doing some more portrait sketches so I found more pics of some friends, in this case Meg and Sarah. I think I'm getting a little better than before. Still a long ways to go though.

Come and Get Some

2010-02-07T20:07:00.000-08:00

I found a picture of my friend Shane holding a spear and it looked like fun to draw and so it was. I had to make up the arm and hand on screen left cause it wasn't in the shot. I was okay with how this turned out until I looked at the ref image again and realized how many mistakes I made. Oh well... guess that's how you learn.

Winter Birds

2010-01-27T21:45:00.000-08:00

I attempted another painting but wasn't very happy with it so I played around with different textures and looks in Photoshop.

Bunny Painting

2010-01-27T12:09:00.000-08:00

Here's a kind of quick painting I did with acrylics and then touched up a bit in photoshop. This is the first time I have traditionally painted in who knows how long and I was limited with my supplies but it was still a lot of fun. I think I will try to do some more soon. Enjoy!

Sketching Away

2010-01-19T13:56:00.000-08:00

Been having trouble drawing, so I found a cool photo and sketched away.

Scribble'n Pie

2010-01-01T22:59:00.000-08:00

Just a random scribble. I can't seem to draw well right now, so this is the best I could pull off. I will keep at it though, so there should be some better stuff in the future.

3D Demo Reel

2009-12-30T22:57:00.000-08:00

Here is my 3D demo reel, so far, to accompany my 2D reel while I go on the journey to get a job. There are some more acting scenes I would like to try to animate but I am having some technical problems right now, so I haven't been able to get to it yet. But I hope you enjoy what you see here for now :).

2D Demo Reel

2009-12-30T22:43:00.000-08:00

Hi there. I finally had time to gather up my 2D work and make myself a demo reel, so enjoy.

Time Off

2009-12-29T20:25:00.000-08:00

I have finally had some time to scribble away. Hopefully I will be able to draw some more soon and maybe do something more finished. Enjoy and happy holidays.

Freeze Frame

2009-12-08T11:15:00.001-08:00

Sorry for the lack of postings. Here's an updated image of my film. Enjoy.

The Golden Butterfly

2009-11-27T22:31:00.001-08:00

Been busy working on my 3d film, so there hasn't been much time to post. I tried to draw something new but the graphite wasn't flowing, so I just quickly coloured a sketch I did a few weeks ago. It's not great but it's something :P.

Test Render

2009-11-04T11:31:00.001-08:00

Here is a test render of one of my shots from the film so far. There is still a lot of work left to be done, so hopefully it will only get better.

Sketchy Time

2009-10-07T22:30:00.000-07:00

I really needed to get my hands on a pencil again but my brain was fried of ideas, so I just found a photo for ref and sketched away.
The ref can be found at: http://escura.deviantart.com/art/Cocoon-138921145

Colour Test

2009-09-06T11:03:00.000-07:00

Trying to figure out a colour scheme and texture I will want to use for my 3D film I'm in the process of making. Let me know if you have any ideas for improvements.

Brain Malfunction

2009-09-05T23:28:00.000-07:00

Just started sketching in my book and realized I was subconsciously being inspired by a pic Desiree drew a while back, so I played it up some more.

Another Day Done

2009-08-29T18:11:00.000-07:00

Fooling around again. Didn't turn out at all like I was imagining when I started but maybe next time things will turn out better.

Random Scribbles

2009-08-25T23:44:00.000-07:00

I haven't really had anything post worthy for a while, so I figured I should throw something up here just so you all know I'm still alive :P.
Just pulled out my sketchbook while in front of the TV. Then had some photoshop fun.

A Beachy Afternoon

2009-07-31T21:10:00.000-07:00

I had to get away from Maya and computers for a while, so I went to the beach. I felt like colouring something, so I just took one of my beach sketches and had some fun. Enjoy :)

Messing Around

2009-07-28T21:33:00.000-07:00

Just felt like playing around.

Round 3

2009-07-28T21:01:00.000-07:00

I just keep coming back for more. Maybe one day I will impress myself.

Round 2

2009-07-13T22:24:00.000-07:00

... Still hard.

Self Portrait

2009-07-12T00:06:00.000-07:00

All I can say is self portraits are hard! I must practice more. Hopefully I will have some better ones to post in the future.

Yay for Life Drawing

2009-07-05T16:20:00.001-07:00

Finally had a chance to do some life drawing again and it was a lot of fun. Here are some of them.

Euro Trip Sketches

2009-06-22T06:08:00.000-07:00

Here are the random sketches I did during my trip to Europe. Before you ask it was an awesome trip and the Annecy Film Festival is great. A must see.

2009-06-21T11:50:00.000-07:00

Here is my first Flash film. Enjoy everyone.

Rebirth

2009-06-21T11:41:00.000-07:00

Looks like VFS posted my film online before me on their youtube page, so here it is for those of you who have been waiting to see it, whoever you may be. Please enjoy and let me know what you think.

Home Sweet Home

2009-05-24T22:07:00.000-07:00

Once again I am trying to break free from my normal mold. It is very hard. Played with textures and tried to keep it rough-ish. Had a lot of fun with this one.

The Evil Water Bulb

2009-05-20T21:43:00.001-07:00

Just playing around again. Tried to use a different style of drawing and colouring but ended up going back to my normal methods the more I worked on it.

Smoke City

2009-05-15T22:52:00.000-07:00

Don't really know what I was trying to get at with this one if anything.

Blue Fluff

2009-05-06T02:05:00.000-07:00

Playing around, trying to come up with a character concept to use for some animation. I think I still need to do more reference though. Gotta find them animal anatomy books.

Bubbley Girl

2009-05-04T03:12:00.000-07:00

My sleep schedule is totally messed up. I should have been asleep many hours ago but that is not happening, so it became time to play around on photoshop again.

Digital Scribble

2009-04-27T23:48:00.000-07:00

Playing around in photoshop again. Just trying to do at least one drawing a day, even if it isn't so great. Must keep drawing and improving!

The Missing Unicorn

2009-04-25T13:53:00.001-07:00

I had not supplied Moose with a unicorn in either of my films, so here is a unicorn to hopefully satisfy his hunger.

Birds

2009-04-22T12:19:00.000-07:00

A random photoshop scribble.

2009-02-21T20:11:00.000-08:00

Drunk people on the bus always seem to have something to say about art. They either have gone to school for it or work in the industry or know someone that does and they love to just tell their tales. Headphones don't prevent them from talking to you anymore.

Release the Beast

2009-02-16T22:15:00.000-08:00

Got a new sketchbook for my birthday, so I figured I would try to put it to good use.

2009-02-12T21:14:00.001-08:00

It's been a while since I have posted a bus drawing, so here you go.

Scribbles

2009-02-08T20:13:00.000-08:00

No bus drawing today. I was given a book to read and so I am doing my best to read it when I have the time. Here are some table drawings done while watching animated shorts. I bet you can guess where the inspiration for one of these came from.

Bus Sketch #25

2009-02-06T19:04:00.000-08:00

Felt the urge to colour something, so I played around on my bus drawing.

Bus Sketch #24

2009-02-02T20:53:00.000-08:00

A very sad drawing day today. Long nights make drained bodies.

2009-01-29T20:16:00.000-08:00

Another full day spent cleaning up drawings and I don't have much to show for it. I hate when things take too long. Maybe one day I will become a clean up master, but it is not this day.

Bus Sketch #21

2009-01-28T20:12:00.000-08:00

Everyone has a bad drawing day right?

I was a little preoccupied on the bus today, so not much got drawn, but it's alright.

Bus Sketch #18

2009-01-24T17:35:00.000-08:00

I'm dying of stomach pains right now, so not much got done today. Hopefully tomorrow will be more productive.

Bus Sketch #17

2009-01-22T21:29:00.000-08:00

Not too much to post today. I have been busy cleaning up and in-betweening my final film scenes. It is quite the time consuming event.

Studies

2009-01-18T20:50:00.001-08:00

I got a big urge to do some studies of different things, so I just took out some Disney books and looked at my friends Bill Presing book and drew away.

Table Drawings

The fog outside looks so sweet. You should check it out if you're in the lower mainland of BC. Just make sure you keep your eyes on the look out for on-coming traffic. I know this has nothing to do with the picture but I hope you don't mind.

Fooling Around

2009-01-11T00:36:00.000-08:00

I just felt the urge to play around in photoshop and people often say my characters look like myself when I am just drawing random faces, so this time I purposely made a bit of a self portrait. Now I can say, 'Yes, it does look kind of like me.'
This was a bit of a speed painting, like 30-40 min. I still really need to work a lot on my painting abilities. Practice makes perfect, right...?

Bus Sketch #5

2009-01-10T13:56:00.000-08:00

Isn't it crazy how fast the weather can change. One second you're just walking home in a wet down pour and the next thing you know you are stuck in a blizzard. Looks like I might be trapped at home again.

Nothing exciting about this sketch post. I had a late night and early morning at school trying to get stuff done, so I was pretty much a zombie when doing this.
