Gearing for Tomorrow!



A few more sketches before tomorrow!

For those who are new to this blog. Every April & October I post one sketch of an original character concept for one day for the entire month. In the beginning it was 'Runs on Coke', then 'Fueled by Pepsi', 'Re: Springman' and on April, 'Souls on Ice!'

October is for 'Gravitational PULL!' A character I created four years ago on the concept that was based on spoofing overused anime cliques.

So starting tomorrow, October 1ts. Get ready for another month of very sketchy artwork.

...yay! :D;

So about these sketches...


Yeah I know I have been doing a lot of them. The thing is that I wanted to work on some poses and the mechanics on how things work thus the reason of a page full of scribbles. Also next month is October and just like last year I shall post concept characters based on a character from his world (This being Gravitational PULL!).

So I gotta keep on sketching so when October 1st comes along...

I'LL BE READY!

PARCE QUE JE SUIS IMPRESSIONNANT! (Partie deux)



Illustration of WWE Wrestler, The Miz!

I'll post this on dA, but most likely it will be a short and non informative description, so I might as well do it here as I still have energy left.

A pic of The Miz I did yesterday night and finished just now. One in a 3/4 view, the other in front view. Drawn in a 4B pencil on white cartage paper. Reasoning for drawing this was two things.

1) Been reading Sanford Greene: Sketchbook Vol. 2 aging and it has gotten me inspired.

2) I watched some of the SmackDown vs RAW 2010 "Draft" on Game Stop today and the while the Miz now has his hat and "chick Magnet" shirt (wanted the No CENA shirt instead), the lack of Zack Rider angers me to no end.

Well, that will do it for today. And off to bed I go!

New Line-Up!



People who used to watch me on dA or still be might remember a concept character I made called "Gravitational PULL!" A character who can create any object with a simple thought. So I'm bringing him back with some tweeks and other characters.

Here's a quick rough of a height chart featuring both characters. I'll work on it some more as soon as I return from class.

Book Sketching (For Me!) Day Five

Techniclay Day six, but I didn't count Yesterday. ^^;


Dark Reign: The Cabal, Artist - Daniel Acuña

I just loved how powerful and intimating the cover looked, so I quickly did a Book Sketching on it. I left most of the construction on so you can see how I tackled it. What surprised me was how easy Doom was (to me) one you added black tones to his everything!

Norman Osborn (in between Frost and Namor) was the hardest to do. As well Enchantress (?) and the hooded fellow beside her because there was WAY too many blacks used in the coloring.

Also, I hate Namor! XD;

More tomorrow,

Night! [^^]

The Return of Book Sketching!

Yeah after a long hiatus I decided to once again try my hand on some Book Sketching (Read last months posts for info). Today's Book Sketching comes from a favorite artist of mine.


Legion of Superheroes #40, Francis Manapul, Jim Shooter & Livesay.

The Shooter/Manapul run on Legion of Superheroes was my 'official' dive into DC Comic. 'Official as in that I never bought a DC Comic on purpose or that I never bough an entire run of an artist or writers work they have done for that series. What I liked about the run was that for a newbie such as myself, is that they didn't try to inform readers on what happened on the issues before hand, but started a new storyline with new members on board.

I also loved Manapul's portray of the Legion. Each with a different personality, and physiological appearance to them that was refreshing and almost human. In the page I chose showed Lightening Lad annoyed by the demands of being the new leader of the Legion putting his foot down after a series of unfortunate events culminating together. The interaction between Timber Wolf and LL is intriguing because Manapul draws two different character, with the same emotion, but drawing them completely different.

Most times an artist would use the same emotion like a copy & paste function on Microsoft Word, but Manapul treats every character differently that you can really feel as if you know what their feeling & thinking. This is what I was trying to go for in my Book Sketching for today.

Well that took long! Tune in next time as I really want to tackle more frustrating (The lighting from panel one, Timber Wolf's close up on the last panel, and don't get me started on trying to get the detail on that birds eye on panel two), yet more complex samples form the Legion for future Book Sketching's to come! XD;;

Another Speical Day!

Twelve Years ago I created what pretty much was my first Sonic Fan character. Throughout the years I made some tweaks on his story, appearance and just about his whole world.

Gamma Rallyson is my moniker, but The Totally Radical Rapide Mole was my first!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY SKETCHES!!! :D









Happy Birthday, Mark Mole! :D
