ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: RESCUE

ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY IS BACK...  Well, I am back to it.  This is a comp I created as a toy design that never made it off the ground.  I thought it was a pretty cool design.

SWASH MY BUCKLE...

This is a character I created for a personal project...  It's still in its planning stages but I am very excited--although, I don't know what the end product will be...  Stay tuned.

POLITICS 2012

Here is my latest caricature...  I haven't been doing much of this lately--much too busy.  Last week, I pulled out an old sketch I did and colored it.  Please let me know what you think!

ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: HEIGHTS

I completed this a while back as a promo piece...  I think it signifies "height" pretty well.  Obviously, I have a real fetish for all things that fly.  It's probably why it ends up in so much of my work.

ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: VOCAL

In the meantime, enjoy an old political illustration that I created a few years ago for the old portfolio--back when I was doing more political work.

I BEEN BUSY THESE DAYS YO...

To quote the great Jim Anchower, "Hola, amigos. How they hangin'? I know it's been a long time since I rapped at ya, but things have been pretty busy for your pal Jim."

Yes, I have been one busy dude... Look for some new images coming up this week!!

SCULPTURE PICS

BACK BABY

Hey all... I have been very busy these last MANY MANY months since I haven't been posting. One project in particular I wanted to share is this guy... He started out as a large-ish canvas I created for my son's preschool auction.

Being in love with the concept, I created this guy in Zbrush...




























Then I bit the bullet and had this company print me a broken up 3D print of my digital sculpt.

































All broken up ready for casting... Stay tuned.

ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: EQUIPMENT

This was a sketch I did a while back. I am a big fan of the colonial period of US History and of the American Revolution in particular. One of the things that always amazes me is the amount of "accoutrements" that an 18th century soldier requires. The gun itself requires constant maintenance and attention if it is to remain in good working order. Anyway, I thought this would be a fitting submission for the topic given how much equipment this fellow is carrying.

ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: FEARLESS

This is a value study I did from a discarded sketch... I kind of think it fits the theme of "fearless" in that we have our little explorer undertaking the EXTREMELY hazardous task of exploring the dark depths of the sea... Anyway, this is my first post in a while. Thanks for looking!
