Extra stuff

2011-12-29T14:17:00.001-06:00

I had a few more drawings that I still wanted to post before the end of the year. So here they are. Hope you like them.

Lego Charles Bronson

The start of an upcoming drawing. It's a drawing of the following photo.

I've been sitting on this drawing for awhile now I should try finishing it.

And this is just something I had in the sketch book

I made my goal of having more posts than last year. Thanks to everyone that does check in from time to time. If you do find yourself coming back to this blog every now and then please follow me(and tell someone else about it).

Thanks again and have a happy new year.

Original Anna Sketch

2011-12-28T10:39:00.001-06:00

Here's the original drawing for the "We Are Of Peace" post. I would of put this up earlier but when I did the markers I thought it looked like I gave her a five O'clock shadow. Now I don't think it looks as bad.

demon

2011-12-22T11:00:00.000-06:00

Here's another sketch. I'm just throwing on textures to help it look a little more finished than they really are but I'm having a lot of fun playing with them. I may have to use them on the more finished pieces.

Hastur

2011-12-22T08:54:00.000-06:00

Here are some random creatures heads. Hastur (the guy in yellow) had just started out as a set of eye and teeth, and a hood. I might have to develop that one some more.

Sketchs

2011-12-20T16:13:00.001-06:00

OK it's almost the end of the year and I would like to beat my post count from last year. So during the nest week and a half I be putting up stuff that I had sitting in my sketch book. This first one is something I actually king of like. The texture is something I found on the internet and I can't remember where.

Found Drawing

2011-07-15T10:12:00.000-05:00

I was going through an old sketch book the other day I found this. I didn't hate it, so I thought I post it.

I just wanted to post something

2011-05-06T10:59:00.001-05:00

Here's something I'm working on. It's almost there. Just a few more tweaks and I should have it.

Waitress

2011-04-28T16:44:00.001-05:00

Based form a photo I found on the Film Noir Photos bog

Chthonian

2011-04-15T13:54:00.000-05:00

I did something different on this one. I drew it in pen to force myself to not overwork the drawing and to except any mistakes that i might make. I think I did OK until I got to the markers. I somehow lost my light source, but I think I salvaged it.

More animation

2011-04-08T10:04:00.000-05:00

The bottom one is kind of old. I tried posting it before but I couldn't get the whole screen to fit in the space until now. Hope you like them.

Silent Hill Nurse

2011-01-21T14:46:00.002-06:00

Drawn from photo that I found one day when I was searching for zombie stuff.

Maya models

2011-01-07T11:38:00.003-06:00

I've done some Maya modeling tutorials that I found online, and I thought I would share the results. If you have any Maya pointers please let me know.

A Grim New Year

2011-01-04T13:52:00.004-06:00

Here's the traditional new year's Grim Reaper post.

The Monkey makes 18

2010-12-29T11:30:00.003-06:00

I saw that my yearly post count has never made it past 17. So, I'm going through some old stuff to find something to for my 18th post for the year, and I came across this. I'm kind of surprised I haven't posted this here before.

See you all next year.

It's the Fuller Brush man!

2010-12-28T10:22:00.005-06:00

I know that's an obscure reference but it I needed to call this post something. This has been sitting on my hard drive for a while. When I finally got back to it, I couldn't capture the energy it had when I started it. So, I'll post it as is, with the hope that I may come back to this and finish it one day.

Old Drawing New Ink part 3

2010-11-29T09:10:00.006-06:00

I didn't think anyone actually read my occasional ramblings, but I was wrong. Well Craig, I did finish I just didn't post. So does that still count? :) The zombie drawings were for a T-shirt idea I had a while ago. There is a double sided shirt with the crawling zombie on the back, and a single sided shirt. Just click the the link and head over to the store. I will be adding some more options in the next few days so check back and take a look.

Old Drawing New Ink part 2

2010-11-16T15:11:00.002-06:00

This is part of something I'm working on. It should be done by now, but the uke and xbox controller are much easier to pick up at the end of the day. I will announce a deadline right now and say that I'll have this finished up by the end of next week. Maybe that will make me get this done.

2010-11-12T16:35:00.004-06:00

Just want to let you know that you know can buy an ornament of Drunk Santa at my Zazzle store.
Why not pick one, or two, up for a friend. Thanks in advance to anyone buys anything.

sketch book

2010-10-15T15:54:00.003-05:00

This is something I had in my sketchbook. It was based off of a photo I saw in the newspaper.

Break Away

2010-09-24T16:23:00.003-05:00

Here's a drawing I did for the Drawing Jam blog. Not sure if I got across what's going on here. So please leave a comment and let me know if you get it.

Meiko Kaji Sketch

2010-09-09T09:33:00.004-05:00

I came across a picture of Meiko on the internet and I thought it would be fun to draw. I think this is from something called Female Prisoner #701 Scorpion. If I'm wrong on the name let me know.

Work in Progress

2010-06-04T10:20:00.004-05:00

I'm gonna post the inks for this now, because who knows is I will actually finish it. I plan on doing three versions of this. One in Illustrator, one in Photoshop, and the third one done with markers. I got the pose for from the Film Noir Photos blog. That blog has a lot of great photos for reference.

Old Drawing New Ink

2010-04-09T11:55:00.002-05:00

I just inked this. It's part of an old project that I wanted to do. More info later.

Another forgotten drawing

2010-03-19T11:34:00.004-05:00

Here's yet another drawing that's been laying around unfinished.

We Are Of Peace

2010-03-12T12:39:00.004-06:00

V starts up again this month and I'm siked about that. I'm not to happy with this drawing but it was getting to the point where I could easily obsess over everything that is wrong it. So I had to step back, ink it, and call it done.

Commander Mc Bragg

2010-02-17T13:00:00.004-06:00

I did this one a while ago. It was for a painting that I was going to do, but I had gotten distracted before I could finish it.

More animation

2010-02-12T08:20:00.001-06:00

Here's a little Flash animation I had done on a product demo for work.

Mug shot

2009-09-18T11:24:00.003-05:00

Wine Country Ukelele Festival

2009-04-27T09:04:00.004-05:00

I did this drawing for a contest. Normally I wouldn't bother with contests but the prize is a Ohana all koa soprano ukulele (suggested retail price $489), and I don't see me ever spending that much on a uke. So I figured what the hell, it will give me something to do. While I was working on the drawing I learned that my brain gets in the way. I have a tendency to over think what I'm doing and and sooner or later I just giving up on the drawing. I'll try and post the early sketches with in the next couple of day to show what I'm taking about. Hope you like the final drawing.

Julie Newmar

2009-04-23T21:44:00.005-05:00

I came across some pictures of Julie Newmar on Shane Glines' blog Cartoon Retro and I thought they would be fun to draw. So if I don't loose interest one or two more will follow.

2009-03-27T10:13:00.003-05:00

I know when it comes to posting I don't do it with any real regularity. So I've added one of those Followers things to the sidebar, to update anyone who might be interested.

Hey look it's some animation!!

2009-03-22T19:52:00.005-05:00

It's actually just a work in progress. This is my first real attempt at animating in Flash. The animation here is only a third of the final piece, and this section needs some more work. The audio is from the movie "Bride of The Monster" and that's Bela Lugosi's voice. I'd like to know what people think so far. Also any Flash tips would be welcome.

2009-02-05T22:19:00.002-06:00

This might be the beginnings of an idea. The more I worked on this the more I enjoyed these two characters. Now I just got to keep myself from getting distracted, so I can finish working this out.

2008-12-15T12:09:00.004-06:00

It's been a while since I've been able to post. As some of you know my son Dante was born on Oct. 25 , so I've been a bit busy. I'll try to post a little more often, but in the meantime beware of the Cymbal Monkey!!!

That's right. I now have things to sell. Mainly it will just be stuff I would like to see on t-shirts. Like this one.

I figured if my cartoon version of myself wears this shirt I should too.

There are some Little Grim things up, and I hope to have more new things within a few weeks.

2008-04-15T16:35:00.005-05:00

I was listening to They Might Be Giants when Hovering Sombrero came on this image popped in my head. So I did this quick little drawning before I forgot about it.

Underdog!!

"Oh, it looks good on you though."

2008-03-14T13:17:00.001-05:00

Here's something that was inspired by Rodney Dangerfield's dialogue from Caddyshack.
"Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh? Oh, it looks good on you though."

The Final Sign of the Apocalypse

For some time now I've been telling my wife that I want to learn to ride a unicycle and get a fez. Well I finally got both. So I did this drawing to poke fun at myself.

I can't believe it myself. When I have nothing better to draw I sketch skulls. Sometimes I get lucky and it turns into something.

All right here's the story. I was trying something new with this one. I had to stop and now I lost interest. So here it is.

Moving

2006-08-10T20:54:00.000-05:00

I'm still around. Between moving and work I haven't had much free time lately, so I'm just checking in. I will finish up the turtle and have the color version up hopefully soon.

2006-05-01T21:55:00.000-05:00

Here's what I'm working on now.
I hope to have the finished one up soon.

Cyclops cat

2006-01-15T19:55:00.001-06:00

I heard on the radio this week about this cat that had one eye. What was really cool about it was that the eye was right in the center of the animals head. So here is my quick sketch of what I thought It might look like.

I thought my first post should be a self portrait. It's pretty close, except I drool more blood.
