Wolves of All Shapes and Sizes

Just some sketches in the sketchbook. Can I start calling it Were-tober, do you think?

(Also testing blogger uploads from my phone! )

Titan Tale: Facing Death Sketch

SO CLOSE TO RELEASE!!
Anyways, the guys are working super hard to get my art in the game, although they are experiencing hiccups that weren't happening before- always at the last minute, eh?

Anyhow, here's a full sketch of the second promo piece I've been working on! Much much further along since this sketch, but that's why it's a teaser! Perhaps when we get a final build, I'll release the finished art! (by the way, the first image, makes a really cool phone background!)

By the way, fans of Requiem Mask might see this as a familiar face- and you may be right to see it. ;) 

Titan Tale Promo Art 2

So Monday I posted a preview of some promo art for Titan Tale! I posted a couple more teaser shots on Twitter so I just collected them below...

...although the last two are from something new! Still for Titan Tale though. Excited about this one. Also, the game is in it's final phases so we're looking at a launch date soon. Maybe monday. Cross your fingers!

Ready your bow

Ready... aim...!

Slurp

Dude, be a gentleman!

The Refuge: gags and studies

Most of these have been on my facebook, a couple haven't!

 

These below were some rejected ideas, but still good for posterity! 

 

This one was from a promo piece I was working on. got really far on it, as you can see, but I decided a redraw was in order when I realized it wouldn't have the right look and composition I was going for.
His condition doesn't get any better though ;c

#Sketches: Life Drawings

It's been a while, so here's a bunch of life drawn sketches done on my DS in no particular order;

Quick Colour: My City

#Edmonton #Alberta 

Sketches: Ghost and Shadow Hunters

Updated sketch pages collecting all of my recent Supernatural sketch studies to include Castiel, and the actors playing the Mortal Instruments characters in the upcoming City of Bones movie to include Lily Collins!

And another stray Winchester of course.

Sketch: The Winchester Bros

And a Castiel- "Dean, it's not funny, the voice says I'm almost out of minutes."

I drew these quick while we were catching up on Season 7. I'd like to think I'm getting okay at caricature-ing them, but I'm just going to keep on practicing! Also a quick interpretation of their differing body-types.

Sam's sideburns are characters of their own, I will say. 

Sketch: Julian Blackthorn

WIP sketch of Julian Blackthorn from The Dark Artifices Series that... doesn't exist yet! With what little info available, I imagine him being as adept at wielding a paintbrush as well as a seraph blade. Will be coloured soon!

Sketches: Browder and Ackles

Sketches of Ben Browder and Jensen Ackles respectively (Ackles is below the line) to do some studies of their faces. One of our protagonists in The Refuge has a look that's been decided to be a combination of these two, hence my notes on facial construction.

How odd would it be to say these things you notice to the people you notice them? As an artist it's just something you see, but I don't think the person would be so comfortable.

I need to practice my Ackles more, I think. But my Browder is looking okay, which is good because there is a Farscape picture I'd like to do...

Sketches: RE Herondale and Blackthorn

As promised, the full page of sketches for mister Blackthorn and Herondale, respectively.
Full body sketches soon!

Sketches: Blackthorn and Herondale

Sketches for an image I have planned just for fun. Julian Blackthorn (or my version based off of what little we know of him) from the upcoming "Dark Artifices" series by Cassandra Clare, and Will Herondale from the current "Infernal Devices" series.

Julian is pure design speculation, but I'm happy with these first passes. That hair was a real pain to get ride and there are many more sketches on the page (and many more to come) that I will scan fully later. (I may decide to edit out the rest of my design notes - I can get pretty hard on myself!)

Will I already had a rough design for him first based off of Street Angel's interpretation, but I'd like to think I've made a few noticeable tweaks since then! Especially since my concept for Jace is pretty solid and the two have that relative connection. I may thin out that jaw line a teeny bit but otherwise, this fella is good to go.
But anyway, Will just knows how beautiful he is, being a Herondale and all.

Sketch: Jensen Ackles

When drawing Kevin Zegers from the last post, I thought "He's looking a bit like Jensen Ackles.
So I drew Jensen.
Now I don't think that at all.
(Again, from photo on google) 

And here are some red pandas that I started out drawing before all those people showed up in my sketchbook.
Enjoy! Also testing some feed settings. 

Mortal Instruments Cast Sketches

Part one?

Godfrey (playing Magnus Bane) and Kevin (playing Alec Lightwood) both had birthdays in September, and I thought it'd be fun to do a sketch for each cast memember as they had their birthday.

Kevin's is somewhere below in the blog, and not really all that satisfying. This sketch I like better! Although there's something I know I missed because it doesn't quite *look* like him still... 

All things considered though, the fact I did these at all blows my mind a little. I wonder what past me would think.

Jemima (Who plays Isabelle Lightwood) I'm pretty pleased with, on the other hand. Although I don't know when her birthday is. :)

These were drawn up using photos picked at random from Google with very minor tweaks on my part. Mostly minute alterations to expressions.

Mind Games: A comic

Oh dear. There they go again. Alex just wasn't playing fair that time.
I don't know if this will have anything to do with the story line as far as content goes, but man, the characters are solid.

Kittens: A Comic

Follow up my last post with a silly, one-shot comic that takes place waayy in the past and has little to nothing to do with the actual Refuge storyline.
Ookami really is an idiot. I don't know how he gets this girl. :)

Domestic Bliss

 Based off of this commentary my wife made last week:

"I love the sound of my husband outside mowing the lawn. He always has this look on his face when he catches me watching him. He's really asking "What do you want?" with it, but I imagine it's more like "I can't wait to finish this so I can sit in the grass with you and drink lemonade...

I just wish I was faster at making homemade lemonade and wrestling on the dang Martha Stewart apron and heels. That would make it so much better!"

So standing in for my wife and myself are the two protagonists of our original story "The Refuge" a teeny bit further into the future. This warm up sketch took too long, but I don't mind at all. 

Many Faces

Just some older sketch pages today. Playing with face shapes and studies for "The Refuge" and some of the antagonists in the story. A lot of the designs have evolved further still from this point (earlier this year!) so I don't mind posting these.

Oh, also Handsome Squidward.
