Explorers lines


I wanted to post a wip illustration in Illustrator. These are just the paths. I'll color it later. The yellow lines are where I plan to do shading… and I don't plan on leaving the rest of the lines pink, so stop freakin' out!

In Progress (maybe)

A few weeks ago I started an illustration with a specific idea in mind. During the process I lost interest in the idea. I thought I'd post a couple versions of the illo. One vectored and one taken into Photoshop. Neither are considered done (especially the Photoshop one), but I thought I'd post them anyways. I can't decide which I like better. I guess they're two different styles so it's hard to compare.

Some of the shading on the body is weird because this guy was going to pull a blanket in his teeth, thus covering up most of his body and casting a shadow. If I continue on with this I'll fix that definitely.

After some Photoshop work. Definitely only halfway done. I think the reason I lost interest in these is because I felt the character needed more developing, so I didn't want to spend the time on the computer. Plus there's other illustrations I want to work on, and I've been real involved lately in developing my church's website. If you're really good I'll post some screenshots of that.

New look

Hey, everyone. I wanted to get the word out that I'm sporting a new look.


(update: I thought I'd upload a pic in case you're reading this using an RSS reader.)

Illustration Friday-"Worry"

It's been a while since I've submitted anything to Illustration Friday, so I thought I submit this one I did a couple years back. Enjoy!

New Website: MTI Studios

This past week I launched the re-designed website for my work: www.mtistudios.net. I'm pretty happy with it. The goal was to make it much cleaner, streamlined, and easy to update. We also wanted to make it very functional--there are music demos that we wanted to play seamlessly when clicked on. The old website didn't do that at all. All the designing, coding, and building was done by ME. I don't fancy myself as a "coder" so Dreamweaver helped out big time. Content development was, of course, done by my bosses and coworkers.

Randomness

Well, it's been over a month since I've posted anything here so I thought I'd post some sketches did today. I really like the big goof looking at the flower. I think I'll polish up the sketch and work on coloring it as soon as I find time. I roughly sketched a battle going on in the background, but I don't think it came across in the scan. I like the little guy, too. Reminds me a little of Marvin the Martian.
