PUPPIES!

Among some of the commissions I was given this month to draw was an AIBO, those cute little artificial intelligence dogs. First generation.

Over the weekend I began sketching some practice scribbles of first-generation AIBOs. Both the more accurate type for intelligence purposes, and a bit of a cartoonish variety as I was asked if I could draw a female one.

Needless to say, the practicing turned out more interesting than I've ever imagined!

The following pics are NOT the commission pics. Just a couple of my practice shots on OpenCanvas. Once I get a composition idea burning in me brain, I'm going to draw and ink it on 9x12" bristolboard paper.




What is this? Little Red Riding Pooch? Well, that cloak needs a hood and then we'll talk! :D

Sketches and Oekaka!

Erm, What?

Just catching up on old art though there really hasn't been anything of amazement aside from some stupid FLCL parodies best not posting.

Have you guys heard of the "Crash of the Titans" game? It's the recent Crash Bandicoot title and the characters all got some.... amazing redesigns! I never doubted anything about this game- especially since I picked up a PSP version of "Crash Tag Team Racing" with my X-box version unplayable in the Xbox 360, and remembered just how awesome Radical Games can really be!

But anyway, back in the days which i think was a chunk of last year, I was a big fanatic of Nina Cortex and when I saw her new design, I was compelled to draw it myself!



And then there's the following. Yes. The yoshies really WILL destroy us all.



Okay.

Fine, here's the FLCL parodies and ..... other.... garbage...

The first one was actually a concept piece for a series of drawings I wanted to do but never began it called "Fooly-Kazooly" (FLKzL) which combined FLCL with Banjo-Kazooie. I had everything planned out down to Banjo being run over by a randomly flung backpack and Jolly Roger posing as a high school girl. Yeah....... YEAH!


Have I ever mentioned I can't wait for "Wrath of the Spider Queen"? Like, enough times on AIM?


Don't ask. Seriously.

Where the heck to begin, man?

So it's obviously noticable that the Evo comic died after two pages. Okay, one if you don't count the intro. Four weeks of the haitus was due to yours truly happily slaving over a miniportfolio and employment application to Rareware and the rest was due to lack of interest and more motivation to work on my other stories as well as picking up on 3D-modelling.

And of course, when the comic began some years back, it was an ameteur college project. Sure, all it's readers are going to wanna see it continue, but I personally don't.

This summer will feature a brand new From-Scratch EvoRelution series.

Or maybe I WILL continue the current comic.

Ugh. I don't know. I tried to but the choices have been plaguing me for several months now.

For the meanwhile, here's some title cards to what was going to be the first three tales of the old comic series.



I really love Painter5's textured watercoloring abilities, but I swear ya, it's totally NOT something for comics. The program's lack of layers is horrible and you can't use the color-picker unless the canvas is dry.

But photoshop coloring is too bland.

Perhaps I should go back to prismacolors...
