Finally Something New

Damn Small Things
My character searching for a part that has rolled under the couch. What's even more aggravating is that as a techie, he's not used to putting furniture together period.
Done on Photoshop with tablet.

Digital Coloring Practice
Practicing coloring my characters on the tablet and Photoshop.
I recently got a Baccano! art book and as I was looking at the pictures, I thought to myself, "Hey, I can color like this on the computer!"
So I've finally found a way to color my beloved characters in a way that meets my standards.
It's just simple head shots for now. More complicated things to come later.
How much later I don't know.

Summer Side Project
Ever since my summer break started I began working on a side project that I had planned since last year. Thankfully I have time this summer to get a good chunk of it done if not complete it.
Anyway it's a one-shot comic/graphic novel about a soccer team. I'm doing it in Sharpie Pen and throwing it together in InDesign. I'm shooting for 150 pages at its completion.
Here are two sample pages from the 70 that I have completed thus far.

New Oil Painting
Usually during my winter breaks from school I'll take on a couple projects of my own volition. Last year I created the oil painting of the two waiters. This year I did a painting of a new character.
Mostly this piece is to practice my color technique. I'm still perfecting digital painting on Photoshop, so I thought it would be good to go back to traditional media and get a feel for things again. I feel though I'm much more comfortable with the oils in this one than the one last year. I have to give credit to one of my colleagues for inspiring me to do an oil painting this break.
I won't say much about the character, I'm still developing him. You'll just have to ask in person.
