Girl

here's a character I designed a little back, I need to fix her pelvic area, and a couple other tweaks here and there, but i tend not to revisit drawings very often and just move on to other stuff, i plan on fixing it one day, but what will proably end up happening is in a year, ill be that much better to where ill jsut redraw and most likely somewhat redesign her anyways, so whatever, until check it out!

Panthro Sketch

all this picture shows is that I'm still learning and that I have a long way to go.

Human Torch no. 2!

I'm going backwards in the story progression, but here's the panel preceding the last one.  enjoy.

Human Torch and Giant Chicken!

  Here's a little exersize i did with my buddy Chris Jimenez (http://chris-jimenez.blogspot.com/) where we gave eachother a random person, place, and item and we had to create a scene involving the three. 
  This particular exercise was to show a sequence in three panels.  This is the third of those panels I did, but I felt this specific panel tells a good enough story standing on it's own. 
  I was given the Human Torch, a volcano, and a wishbone.  In an epic battle against a giant chicken, the human torch bursts out of the volcano ripping the wishbone right out of that punk-headed poultry.
 
Haha.  hope you all enjoy it!

Alice in Wonderland

This is a picture I drew for my girlfriends other niece's first birthday.  I like'd it. It's not perfect, but hey neither are YOU!

Cloud_FF7_sketch_and_Pigs

Here's just some sketches I did this past week.  Hope y'all enjoy!  still flushing some of them out and hoping at one point that I'll perhaps make some some finals.

Jasmine_Aladdin

   Did this for my girlfriends niece's birthday.  I drew the original in prismacolor, then took a picture and completed it in Photoshop.  Hope y'all like it.
   I felt this piece pushed me to draw some things I've never done before... Like drawing a tiger. haha.  Overall I'm pretty pleased with it even though I see some weak points.
   Enjoy!

Link_Navi_Zelda

    Just a small intimate little picture between Link and Navi his borrowed li'l fairy.
    If the problem you have with is is the coloring, then you're right there with me, because I don't know what I'm doing.  I have no idea how to paint in or outside photoshop.  so I am totally experimenting.  Get over it. 
    Overall I like it, but there are some things I see as I look at it right now that don't sit right with me, but I can't quite put my finger on it.  Well, nevertheless I hope you all enjoy it!

The Raven, Poe

So here's my other piece to go in tandem with my Man In the Iron Mask.  The Raven, by Edgar Allen Poe.  I hope you all like it!

Sci-Fi

I have always wanted to do a fun adventure story in a space setting.  here are some silhouettes I did of some character designs I may flush out eventually.  they still need some work but I hope you enjoy them anyway.  haha.  enjoy!

The Man In the Iron Mask

Here's the piece I did for my brother's (Mike Collins) collaborative art book.  (creativeaces.blogpsot.com and/or tikimachine.blogspot.com)

My piece was The Man In the Iron Mask.  Here's my picture!  you can see I decided to go with something different than the initial layout.  I hope it worked.

Going counter-clockwise, starting with the man in the iron mask (Philippe);  D'artagnan, Porthos, Aramis, Athos, then to the otherside, Athos' son Raoul, his fiance La Valliere, then a sword fight by D'artagnan, and the King Louis XIV.

Hope y'all enjoy!

ME!

self-portrait.  Enjoy!

Bebop and Rocksteady! Re-designs

here are some really rough re-designs i was working trough for a little sequence i've been trying to board for some time of Bebop and Rocksteady from TMNT.  Hope y'all enjoy!

Kim Possible! (and other sketches)

just some sketches I did this past week.  I had to touch some up in photoshop because I didn't realize they were off until i scanned them in.  Hope you all enjoy.

More Zombies!

This is a design I did for a friend of mine's nephew.  She wanted to make a shirt for him, and since he loves zombies, she asked me to do this.  Her nephew loves zombies so much to where he frequently asks for "More zombies!"  Hence why the design has the text. 
All in all, I'm pretty happy with it.  it took me about three passes to make it work.  In fact I even posted the preliminary sketch below.  Yes, you saw it, I swapped it.  mainly to draw it right.  i.e.  put the finish lines on top of the mirrored image in order to insure I was drawing it right. Haha.  Well I hope you all enjoy it.  Especially to whom it is for.
I had a lot of fun drawing it, although it took me a while to find a good altogether design, nevertheless, it was a fun experience.

Memory Sketch!

So just yesterday while I was on a date, we were headed to the Cold Stone in the Burbank Town Center and there was this guy, just singing away, bobbing his head up and down, and just performing with his microphone.  The girl I was with and I just got the biggest kick out of it.  He was just in to it!  Haha.
Later as we were leaving, he had switched spots (by like 20 feet, and then to our surprise now he was not only still singing at the top of his lungs, but straight up had a Guitar Hero guitar and was pretending to play it as he held the mike and sang!!  HAHAHAHA.  It was sooo funny.
It was hilarious.  So, needless to say it was an absolute must to memory sketch him.  I feel I caught the energy of him, although I don't think it exactly looks like him in the face.  but eh, that's why I'm doing these things to get better.  Hope you guys enjoy this story as much as I did to experience it.

Sketchbook Pages!

so, because I have no finished picture and I do not want to pay my friend a dollar I have decided to post some sketches from my sketchbook, it is sad to say that out of my whole sketchbook, i only like three pages thus far...  haha! well anyway here are some sketches.  you all should feel lucky.  to make up for not having a finished picture I am posting  count 'em THREE pics!  Most of them are cafe sketches, most however are me just trying to push myself beyond my comfort zone with poses and such. 
so needless to say, my sketchbook is a place of learning for me, so forgive me if the drawings are pretty bad. haha.

Smurfette

Here's one I did a couple weeks ago for one of my sisters-in law  because she told me I couldn't and I would butcher it.  looks like she was right hahahahaha!
