Stupid life.

Stupid me. Stupid scanner. Stupid time and not having it because my awesome job is being a stupid with awesome and I'm staying stupid late because I'm stupid and I want too.

However, in the 4 minutes of free time yesterday I drew a doodle. Today instead of reading the comics I bought, I inked/colored it. It's taking me too long. So I'm probably doing something wrong.

Because I'm stupid.

I'm also totally burnt out. Is it obvious?

Kinda update

But not MASSIVE updates. Just finished digital inks and color swatch test.

More "peet's process" than anything else. Hopefully someone, someday, anybody will actually give a shit.
I'm not so stoked on the the laser blasts, but everything out is kinda cool.

An experiment of sorts.

I'm not sure if the experiment was a success or not. I'm going to say something terribly cliche and therefore I apologize in advance. I am my own worst critic.

What I'm going to post for your judgment is the original sketch and the same sketch digitally inked by myself. I've never done this before, this is for a "contest" for monsterfactory.net (there stuff is AWESOME, thank you Meg for showing me)

This is the first time I've used my Wacom tablet to ink something instead of just drawing something brand new with it. So seriously, leave some feed back!
Above is obviously the original sketch (at 72dpi). You can see where I got bored of drawing/anxious to try digital inking.

Here's my attempt at digital inking it's real size is 11"x17", and at 72dpi it's not too bad. However at 300dpi it looks like I asked Michael J. Fox to ink it. Maybe I should get tested to make sure I don't have MS like Teenwolf.

Anyway, lemme know what you guys think!

Also here's the image of the monster I included in my illustration:

Test drive

So in my last update I posted sketches for character concepts. The only one I like is Marcel (the one who was inked) the others didn't quite work for me but I have an idea of what it's gonna be.

Anyways so now this game is going to be a web based game so we're going to be using Flash, a program I've been wanting to use for the year I've had it (got CS3 pro last winter) but never actually learned. Now I have to learn it, and learn it fast, and more importantly learn how to draw in Flash. Using a Wacom tablet (intuos3), which is something I've NEVER done before (actually bought it just for this project and I love it), I did 2 work ups of Marcel.

I'm gonna post 2 versions of the same mock-up, one with layers and the other with just 1 layer. Then last I'll re-post the Marcel drawing.
