The SCULPEY is ROLLING

So yesterday I picked up a bunch of books from the caff. The concept books are absolutely amazing and they have a lot of good stuff in them.





On to present events.. Today I went on a little adventure to get some resources for my Toy project. I managed to get a few things at "A Buck Or Two". Some acrylic paint, brushes and a couple rolls of 20 guage wire to wrap around my armature. Then I went over to Currys to grab some more sculpey but they didn't have any more. At least I got my tool set. My grand total of time and money spent was 3 hours and 30 dollars. Plus some McDonald's and an MP3 Player filled with E.S. Posthumus, Lost Prophets, Hoobastank, NIN, Anberlin, Sevendust, Within Temptation, Tool and Kamelot ROCK ON

I also payed a visit to West 49 where I finally found a black pair of shoes. Fallen's logo is so freakn' COOL! They also had a whicked sale so I got a sweet ass sweater and a couple T's. There goes my paycheck HAHAHA





I'm all ready to go and so is my new Toy design. I thought this one would be more interesting. I have a lot of hopes for this one and I can't wait to finish it. More on my box later.. My concepts right now for it are crap.

NINJA PUB WORKSHOP

So I went ahead and did some concept work for a mag ad I had to create. Then it came to me to do an ad for the up and coming "Ninja Pub". I thought why not? So I did some ninja drawings of different logo ideas. After finishing with the mag, I talked to Andrew about the flyers and if I could contribute my logo to it. The following pictures showcase the results.

Concepts for shurken and head/mask








After discussing my ideas with Andrew we both came to an agreement of which design I should use. This was the result of the final Illustrator line art.











Took me just under a day to come up with concepts and finish the final product for Joe's class.

Andrew's design with my logo can be found HERE











Time for a break.
What can I say? I found the idea hilarious so I made my own rendition of it hahaha.

Concept work and other things

Here's the concept work for what I'm thinking of doing for my toy. It will tie in nice with my soon to be adopted domain name.

Toys and My sculpey

I finally got a hold of some white board to stage some shooting areas for projects. So I took a few shots of my Cyber Violator. I only got one that turned out good enough to post.

I love the way the flash reflected off of the paint to give off a real metallic look. This thing is probably worth a fortune on Ebay and is quite the kick ass character.



I also went to work with some more sculpey just messing around and seeing what I could come up with on the fly. A couple gas masks, a tiny head, a mouse head and some funky looking skull character. More soon to come when I pick up a couple more boxes and a tool kit at Curry's.

Cheers

Warhammer FORTEEKAY

Here's some of my more recent work with Warhammer 40k. I still have to get started on my Dark Eldars and possibly head over to Heroes World for some games. Too bad my life is comprised of School -> work -> sleep. Ah well, in due time

Enjoy

Draw! DRAW!!WARD

Jamming to some Rammstein and drawing at the same time. What could be better?

I managed to get some of my sketches together. I've been drawing a lot of Luis Royo and Dean Yeagle lately. That labrynth book sale that comes by the Seneca caff every once in a while is truly amazing. What's also amazing is the fact that every time they come by I spend a good $150 dollars on art books LOL.
I truly am nuts, but if I'm ever to improve on figure drawing why not start with some females? Screw drawing males, Let's draw some boobs! YEAH! Anyways. . .

I started with some Yeagle. I traced one of his drawings of Mandy then I proceeded to study his style making random notes and tried to piece together some similarities and stuff that would allow me to duplicate his work or impliment it into my own drawings.













I was inspired by this chick I know to draw this. It's also influenced heavily by a "Dead By 17" character.

















This wouldn't be complete without something from Royo.

















These were the books that I was very fortunate to have picked up. They are all filled to the brim with great art work. The action cartooning book has some awesome tips and tricks to drawing. I also picked up a couple other books but didn't manage to take pics of them. "How To Draw Manga: Female Characters" Worth the read whicked awesome stuff. And I also got another Luis Royo book: "Submersive Beauty".























Here's an inked Carnage I did a little while back. Why couldn't he be in the new movie?!

















Some random doodles while I was on the phone hahaha











A concept of an abstract plant with the attributes of aconitum. Poisonous and deadly. Don't ask what the eye in the middle is about because I don't even fucking know.

Aconitum Logo

Let me begin with the explanation of "Aconitum".
If you havent guessed it is the latin term for "strong poison" I thought this was a cool concept to work with because I was getting tired of the skull and crossbones for the universal poison warning sign. Thus I redesigned it with my own touch while adding in an organic tribal influence for the crossbones.
It was the result of trying to find a fucking domain name which wasnt taken already. "Pathogen" is still in the works but it's taken already so I'm going to have to add a number to it or just have PathogenFUCK.com or something along those lines. Anyways you can see the logo design in my background.
