Super SF4 - Ibuki

Dudley - Street Fighter 3 (and 4)

Another in this series of SF characters. This time with more deliberate design in pattern and badge/frame/motif around the character.

Makoto - Street Fighter 3 (and 4!)

I grew up play a lot of Street Fighter. When SF3 - Third Strike came out it was decided that I try to learn Makoto, one of the game's harder to learn characters. She's the kind of fighter that with enough time and effort, her usefulness opens WAY up.

Heard she'll be in Super Street Fighter 4 coming out in April. So did this little illustration.

I feel like tonight's process was kinda like learning to use her in the game. Lots of extra work and effort up front, but this feels like one of those 'breakthrough' pieces artists are lucky to get in life.

Night well spent!

Goku Re-Imagined

Another assignment for the DAC group.

Design-A-Character

Joined up to a group on DA called Design-A-Character . Each week a new challenge is posted, from designing characters based on random shapes to re imagining existing designs.

These were a few for the first time I participated. Looking forward to doing more!

Another Gallery Show + Computer Issues

Long time, no talk folks!

I'll be in another gallery show on April 3rd in the LA area! It another bike-themed show, and all art will be 'hand printed' meaning silkscreen, lino block print, etc. I've got a design figured but no color scheme yet. Want to keep it one color so it's affordable though.

Also, I caught the first malware/spyware infection ever! Had my current PC for 5+ years, and I've been working to fix it (and almost there!), but until then I've kept most of my updating to password-protected places to other computers. Gotta thank the girl for the laptop use...

Here's the design for the show, plus some sketchwork and stuff that's gone up at DeviantArt but failed to go up here!

This last one is for the art show.

Monsters on Bikes Art Show

Hey folks!

On November 14th, from 6pm to midnight, I'll have a work (or two?) at an art show in Highland Park. There's two physical locations, and it's part show, part benefit - sales will help support two non-profits helping people with buying, repairing, and maintaining bikes.

Which brings us to the theme - monsters on bikes! I have a penchant for monsters and putting one on or around a bike sounds like fun!

A million thanks to Shing Yin Khor (of http://www.sawdustbear.com/) for the heads up on this!
