tough

and some old sketches here

Lil descriptions can be found at deviantart, sorry too tired (lazy...) to copy and paste em here. But what I can do here is actually blog! Things have been really busy these days. First I moved from NY to NJ. It was a smooth move but now I'm house-locked. No way to get around. I'm sorta thinking of getting a bycicle...hmmm. Anyways, for a while now I've been working on multiple projects, lots of stuff to do and so little time. At heart, I know to be very greatful to have work at this time, but mentally I start turning into a zombie... and that's no good! So I gotta keep my own thing going. On my deviantart, I started a webcomic. Despite all the "Moth" stuff I draw, I'm doing a comic called "Tenants" first... it's just in pencil and loose to help me get used to making a story publically, regularly updating at least 1 page a week usually on saturday. It's going well so far, check it out and lemme know what ya think too, I'd appreciate it.

I just found this duo band "Matt & Kim" and I really like their music. Very upbeat and fun. I just want to get up and jump around and play on my keyboard too. Somebody wanna join me and jam? It's ok, I don't have any experience there either. It's not too late to start! ohh, and speaking of music, I recently began making songs on the comp again.

What else... well nothing can beat the nice nature all around me now, and family is here which is great, but I have definitely been missing NY and my friends there a lot.

Time for some shut eye, night!

x-bros

More "just wait, let me catch my breath" doodles to loosen up and just have fun. The x-men stuff is my repsonse to recently seeing Jean Giruaud a.k.a. "Moebius" comics and artwork which is believed to inspire some of Panzer Dragoon's art direction (that's a series of video games that have this really deep world to it and amazing designs... check it out yo). Was looking at Panzer Dargoon stuff because of my longing to work on my own mech story that is heavily influenced by it. So, with that inspiration I set to trying to do some more abstract ancient and alien looking x-men but only scratched the surface... I like the result but it's far too neon than what I had intended.

A few days before that I'd done a simple bunch of busts from the beloved Venture Bros series after I had seen all of season 3. The characters are very fun to draw.

In other news, I made it into the Udon Darkstalkers Tribute book! So please look for my contribution when it comes out around the end of summer.

just a moment

After working day by day without doing anything of my own, it gets obviously stiffling... so to catch some fresh air I did these three quick designs all in one day. I'm most happy with the top drawing. You can check out my deviantart for little more info on them since I'm a sucker for making at least a brief line of story for a character design even if they're not encompassed in a developed world.

sketchy squares

These were done over at a friend's forum... the same series of topics which lead to my new years gifts, and the man with no name drawing. The topics from top to bottom are: Perspective, food you want to eat at the moment (that was my idea :D), big hair.

unused

These are some artworks I did for different companies and projects. I am happy to share them even though they aren't actually used in the end because I put my all into them and really like how they turned out. Hope you like them!

Our Tradition colored

Before we reached the end of January 2009, I wanted to finish coloring this one. I made good on my word, see? Although the holiday spirit is faded by now, I hope you will all still enjoy this piece. I wish everyone an awesome 2009 year!

zombie...

... this week the topic with my friends was "zombies". My favorite zombie has gotta be Zabel Zarock, or Lord Raptor in US... so this was a quick doodle. That eyeball thing is his sidekick so to say. This is a good segway into working on contest pieces for Udon's Darkstalkers Tribute book. I'll try my best and hope for the best.
