Another one of these ...

READY!

SET!!

GO!!!

So I don't believe I have posted these on here before ... but I felt it was past time for a little art dump! and for image number one we have some Star Wars Rebels Fan Art!

Image two is some Zach fan art of a 2013 drawing of his ... I think.  Did this a while ago and I can't quite recall. Awesome design though!

Trying out some ideas for some digital book covers ... here was #1.

Hope you enjoyed the random selection of arts!

Where the heck is that kitchen sink?

Here we have three very different works none of which feature original creations.  kind of shameful for a would-be concept artist.  I should work on that!

Captain Phasma biased on a screenshot from Star Wars Episode VII's trailer.  I am super excited for that movie!

Chris Pratt had a silly competition on Facebook today and my sister-in-law encouraged me to participate.  It was supose to be a composite image banner but I decided to sketch it instead.  I took A LOT of shortcuts on my process here but it went fast and was fun so I am happy.

And last but not least another Zach fan art drawing because I love his work and seeing his genius through my own strokes has become a guilty pleasure of mine.  (Zach I really hope you don't mind!)  I'm think his name is ... Rabbit White, but you'll have to ask Zach.

Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue

Something Old

I did this for a children's book class I took a while back.  We were suppose to draw something with a focus on action ... so Dino/Bird chase scene?

Something New

I decided this was the only way to display my recent Mortal Kombat sketches.  This was really fun and I may want to redo it in the near future for purposes of bettering.

Something Borrowed

This is a character from my friend Ashley's story and he is A LOT OF FUN TO DRAW.  He is the Magpie King and he may want to steal your eyes / soul / stuffs.

Something Blue

UNDER WATERED!

My friend Zach Heckert has a blog, E.I.E.I.O.

... and on this blog he has some art E.I.E.I.O.

And here is some old fan art I did of some even older original art he did.  These, as my other fan arts of his arts, are based on his most ancient of posts.  Thus if you want to find the source material you'll have to hunt for it - but I promise the hunt will be enjoyable!

As I side note ... I feel creepy there are so many of these ... but they were made over a span of multiple months!

The last of the single Shel-ites

Here are the last three Shel Silverstein monsters that stand alone. There are still three more images to come to finish my collection honoring his collection but they will be large groups and will stand out from all that has come before.

The Wild Cherote!

I stayed pretty close to the source image with this one, just thickened the legs and exaggerated the face colors.

The Friendly Old Sleepy-Eyed Skurk!

He is in dire need of chapstick.

The Squishy Squashy Staggitall!

The most ferocious monster of them all! 

Now Mario wont be bro-less. 

And this finishes the Phase One Avengers! And lets not forget my random inclusion of Dr. No!

Guardians of the Galaxy - 2 of 5 and more!

Here are some more of my Digital Sketchbook pages where I figured out the line work for some vector images! I had a lot of fun doing Drax, Hawkeye, the Hulk, and Mario!

Drax was intrasting to do because in the new Guardians of the Galaxy film his red markings are strange and complex and would be too time-intensive and detailed to properly render on a cartoon of this caliber, thus I had to find a level of simplification I liked for the set.

Looking at this a couple hours later I can see I accidentally deformed the Black Widows legs ... oops.

I just love this page. <3

Guardians of the Galaxy - 3 of 5

Here are a couple of my Digital Sketchbook pages where I figured out the line art for my vector Guardians of the Galaxy images that I am currently about halfway through!

Peter Quill (a.k.a. Star Lord) and Rocket Raccoon

I AM GROOT!

Three and Three

The first three - three of my Digital Sketchbook pages.

Everybody's favorite flux-capacitor inventing time traveler!

I mostly did this page as a contrast to my Ron Swanson pages as Christopher Lloyd and Nick Offerman have such a difference between their faces and expressions. I found the switch difficult and the likeness above to be a little lacking.

Page 3 of Swansons.  The top two turned out rather well I think! The other two ... hey, what's that behind you?!?

nothing? oh, well. Where was I? ah, Princess Leia!

I decided late last night I wanted to do something for yesterday's Sketch Dailies ( #PrincessLeia ) and this was all I had time / awake-ness / willingness to do. I like the top right face ... I want to do something more with it but have no idea what.

Next up the Shel Silverstein monsters! I am nearing the end of these ...

The Zumbies!

This is another one with an appearance I almost completely made up .. I like it.

The Gumplegutch!

Meh ...

The Flying Festoon!

... and the award for being my least favorite drawing in the collection goes to ...

Machismo

I think, on a whole, this batch of Ron Swanson / Nick Offerman turned out better than the last.

The Gink!

Triangle-eyed cyclops are all the rage these days

2,000 + page views!

... I am not sure if it is impressive or if it sad ... but it is, and that's what matters, right?

Here is another quick doodle I did from Mark Kistler's draw squad book. It is from he second lesson about surfaces. Really, his books and video lessons are a must for pre-teen artists in training!

The Gleeech!

Another monster unseen in Shel Silverstein's and thus whose appearance I made up.

The Feather-Breasted Greel!

Oddly, the original did not look very feather-breasted ...

The Skinny Zippity!

I made his legs less skinny, so he may need to loose the descriptor.

This, like Jerry the Fairy from an early post, is my quick representation of my buddy Richard's bed time story character he tells his daughter. I think of him as a mobster finger ... who murders tyrannosauruses in the night ... while listing to Gregorian humming involving off-key minor sevenths ... but that may or may not be an unofficial sequel to the original bedtime story.
