The Hunted Mansion Medusa

"Medusa"

The Medusa Portrait from the Haunted Mansion. This has been the easiest of the ones I've done and really the most fun. She's all menacing but those snakes are actually really cute if you look closely at them.

Done with graphite, 2 1/2 hours

Still Life No. 8

"Still Life No. 8"

Two hours, graphite, a candle, dried rose, and a book covered by fabric. Light source is the candle.

I'm trying to get back to a good spot with shading so this month will be some still life.

Rowen Gesture Sketch

"Rowen's Gesture"

Back in the 90's when Cartoon Network actually showed good cartoons, there was this segment on there called Toonami which showed Anime. I really have Toonami to thank for my fanship of Anime, and one of those shows was called The Ronin Warriors.

The Ronin Warriors was a show about five young men who wore magical armor and fought against an evil demon who wanted to take over the world. This is a quick digital sketch of one of those guys, Rowen of Strata or Touma no Tenku in Japanese.

I've drawn him and his four friends many times before; this is my first digital quick sketch though and I wasn't going for 'pretty' so much as I was going after the gesture.

The Attic East End

"The Attic East End Sketch"

In my background and layout final we had to design a room where you can see some back-story. Now the sketch here tells it better than my final below. Here is the story:

This is the eastern corner of a large attic in a house where an old family of witches live. These witches are demon hunters and well versed in all forms of magic. No one has been in this attic for about thirty years, and in this attic they store their most deadly and powerful weapon. A book of shadows possessed by an ancient spirit.

"The East Side of the Attic"

And here is the final piece... yeah I don't like working in Maya. It didn't help that I'm working almost full time now too. So I didn't get a chance to add the stained glass window or the lighting, which would have made a lot of difference. I might try to revisit this someday and make it better.

Syrenity the Unicorn

"Syrenity the Unicorn"

My model is my very own chestnut Arabian mare, Syrenity. I made her a unicorn as apart of an assignment at school. Truth be told I'm very proud with how this turned out since it's the second time I've drawn her since I've had her.

The Griffin

"The Griffin"

Wow could this have come out any smaller?

Gladiola 1.0

"Gladiola 1.0"

I'm going to really try and study flowers and nature a little more, we can start with this. This was done in photoshop, I'm trying to stay away from lines for a bit so my stuff stops looking like a coloring book thus here I'm using color as the line.
