Two More Misfits

Fun With Shapes

Fiddling with the characters' basic shapes. Four more to go.

Cyborg Gimp

Some "Monster Soup" concept art. It's a Gimp Cyborg, or a Cyborg Gimp? Oh well.



He drives a 1932 Bugatti Type 55. Yeah, he's badass.

Portal 2 - Extended Ending

After finishing "Portal 2" I wondered, "What will happen to Chell now?"

Messy Fun

An experiment of the messy kind. I've been wanting to step out of my comfort zone for a while now.

Let the Concepts Commence

Giant Robot, attack!

One Hot And Sexy Batman

I was sucked into a topic here at Comic Dish that is centered around the exploits of Sexy Batman. I have an alternate version of this image in the thread. (Some of the other images there are on the mature side.)

So this here is the classic shot of the hero walking away from a massive explosion.

Yum.

More Concepts

More concept art.

Drawing again!

I was asked by a long time friend of mine to collaborate with her on a prequel story to her comic "Adrastus". Though I'm always hesitant to even think about working on a comic, I really need to face this fear of mine. And who knows, maybe this is what I need to get my butt in gear and work on my own comic.

These here are the first sketches of the four characters the prequel will revolve around. Sketched with a simple Bic ballpoint pen (red) and a mechanical pencil, then inked in Manga Studio. I'm starting to love Manga Studio, and it may be the program I use to make the comic.

Technology Sucks

I spent an hour today trying to correct the Wacom driver issue with Manga Studio, and it still isn't fixed. (Followed all the guides I could find on the internet.) I have been having the most terrible time getting this comic off the ground. And now things are starting to fall apart. Perhaps I should start small. Do a carefree, simple comic. That way I can familiarize myself with the programs and work out my own process. I need to experiment a bit. But right now, I'm completely overwhelmed to the point where I'm starting to dread working on it. That's not the place I need to be. I want to have fun with this, but all I'm feeling is anxiety and, well, dread. Something isn't right. Perhaps I need to take a step back for a moment. Or perhaps I have been pushing myself to hard.

I do have a manuscript that needs finalized for print. Then there's always the story I worked on for this past NaNoWriMo. This could be the nice break I need. And now my mind switches to the Steampunk story I have in the pipeline. Maybe I need to do what my grandmother says and make a list of the things I want to complete that day. It worked for Uma Thurman in KILL BILL.
