Words of ME- Update

 

Also!

For those of you that actually read my blog and
enjoy my rants and artwork- you may like this!

Something rather exciting and fun came up
the other day while attending one of my classes.

To make a long story short...

          I am now a Lead Concept Artist!

I'm so excited to be taking on this new challenge!

U.L.

As I have mentioned in previous posts 

I was been rather busy all summer and unable to work on my own pieces.

Well, I figured it was about time you all got to see some of what I have been working on instead. 

One of my graduated classmates contacted me over the summer- interested in me creating a storyboard for him and a company he is currently working with.

Long story short- 

they sent me a 13 page script that needed storyboarding

and thought I am unable to show you all of my work

I CAN show you a small fraction of it. 

Heimdell

I know the Thor movie was very popular- and I have to say I enjoyed it as well. 

Costumes were so interesting and had a great twist to them all. 

And I loved the modern splash they had in it all but I did notice something that nagged at me.

Something about Heimdell... 

He was missing an important feature in his costume...

I had done some research on Viking legends a long time ago but that's the thing! 'A long time ago'.

I couldn't put my finger on what was bothering me so I looked it up.

His HORN!! He was missing his horn!

In viking legend Heimdell was said to 'sleep less than a bird, he could see 100 leagues, and could hear grass growing in the meadows and wool growing on sheep.
Heimdall kept the “ringing” horn, Gjallarhorn, which could be heard throughout heaven, earth, and the lower world;
it was believed that he would sound the horn to summon the gods when their enemies, the giants, drew near at the Ragnarök, the end of the world of gods and men.'

So- as always~

Lets start with off with some fun sketch work!

 

Lookin' pretty good there!

Next step- Inking the lines!

Once thats all done-
Time to get to the color blocking!

 Once all the colors are blocked out with a nice base
It's time to move onto the shading and lighting and really bringing some life into my design of Heimdell!

(Coming soon)

Eelmaid Update

After having no time all summer to spend on my own work it's nice to get back to school and have some fun me time. 

(And yes I know how odd that sounds, haha)

So what better way of coming back into the semester then 

an update on a project of mine that's been on pause for a few months now?

Remember this one?

Hoping to have her finished in a week. 

Whoo! 

Lets do this~

Bearman

I know I've already put this one up a little while back but I realized I never put the fully colored version up! 

Haha- oops.

So- here he is, Bear man with all his coloring!

Blast of the Past

Right now seams to be a time for me to go back to all my older works- 

I'm talking like... freshman year in high school works.

Wow... I can't believe its been almost 9 years since then....

Time sure flies...

Anyways-

with all these old images it's only natural to want to redesign characters. 

So that's what I did. I took a story group from then and made it a bit more now.

Or at least a little more fun. haha

These here are my candy crew~

Based on my idea years ago to have a web series around a single candy shop

where each employee design's their own uniform. Their favorite candy.

(mind you- these are not all the characters.)

From left to right you have-

Kit-Kat, Bubblegum, Caramel Apple, Peppermint stick, Lolly pop and Gummy worm.

Words of ME- Outback!

Hey everyone!

Making this update so you all don't go getting all mad at me.

What for you ask?

Well- I'm not going to be making any updates these next 5-6 weeks. (Dun-Dun-DAAAH!) Instead of sitting home all summer I am heading off to the outback!I will be spending 5 weeks of my summer in Australia where I will be working on Environmental Conservation in New Castle. That's right- I'm spending my summer volunteering in another county!

Whoo!

 See you all when I get back!
