Flotsam - GGJ 2012

2012-01-30T20:40:00.002-07:00

Fat Viking

2012-01-29T23:38:00.003-07:00

I don't think I did all that well. Lots of mistakes. Trying to attack my weakness. I'm glad I finished it. :)
This is a work in progress. If you have any input please say. thanks

Shapes!

2012-01-29T15:49:00.004-07:00

We had homework this week at work. Our concept artist made some shapes and we were suppose to design a character or something with that shapes. These are my shapes I did.It was fun to do something different. I might do this more offten. I get stuck on the same shapes sometimes.

Viking! with an axe...again

2012-01-22T18:07:00.004-07:00

Decided to do this character again. I think it looks better, but I still have issues with pose, color and lighting. I might fix this painting some more once I receive input. thanks for looking

Viking! with an axe

2012-01-15T10:19:00.004-07:00

So i want to study more lighting and color. I feel this piece is suffering for that.

Figure Drawing

2012-01-07T22:30:00.002-07:00

Mushroom dude

2011-12-17T07:50:00.004-07:00

This week I went a little lazy and decided focus on just rendering. I did okay.

Best friends

2011-12-08T21:53:00.001-07:00

This was fun to paint. I think i did alright. I got alittle better.

Fairy

2011-12-01T22:40:00.002-07:00

I haven't painted anything for awhile. It was fun. This area is lacking for me. I should do illustration instead of static poses.

Concept_08

2011-09-27T21:19:00.004-06:00

I think I'll stop posting monsters for awhile. I need to focus on something else. Over all I don't think I did all to well on these. I might color some of the better ones. I need to figure out what I'm doing wrong and right on these. I need to work harder.

Concept_07

2011-09-19T21:28:00.003-06:00

More of the same.....my head hurts again.

Concept_06

2011-09-16T20:38:00.002-06:00

More monsters. Not sure these are turning out better.

Concept_05

2011-09-08T20:57:00.003-06:00

More monsters. I need to push my shapes more.

I need to draw draw draw.

Concept_04

2011-09-01T21:17:00.004-06:00

I've been trying to draw better monsters. It's getting there. I showed some artist at comic con my monsters. He said I'm there. :) I need to work harder though.

WIP Bear and Brown animation pitch

2011-05-02T22:12:00.006-06:00

This is what I've been working on lately. An animation pitch story. It's been hard work. I've learned a lot and I am not done. The three main characters are Brown, Bear and the small girl. The car belongs to Bear(the dude) and Brown(the Bear) rides in the back. The old man sage is a drug dealer and gives out magic drugs. Crazy stuff happens The Dude with the lantern is a homeless guy. I have not figured out what he'll be doing. Maybe some type of guide to weird worlds. I've mostly figured out Bear and Brown. I am having trouble with the design of the girl. I'll be finishing this up and designing their enviornments. Hope to learn more and get better.

Bullrilla

2011-02-27T13:42:00.002-07:00

Challenge for work. I need to find a new way to paint.

Concept_03

2011-01-19T20:13:00.000-07:00

I did 31 sketchbook pages of this character. I learned some. He's a character for a illustration I'm going to do. Then i will storyboard out a story for him. Plan is to have a new portfolio by the end of next year. I hope I can make it

Faces week 8

2010-11-26T10:24:00.000-07:00

Which ones you like best and why? Which ones are bad and why? Thanks for looking

Concept_02

2010-11-17T19:38:00.001-07:00

Some sketchbook drawings. I like drawing monsters! I need to push the shapes more though. I think these are okay..

Concept_01

2010-11-13T08:15:00.001-07:00

Not sure what I will do with this character. It was going to be for a comic, but I don't really have a story worth telling. I might make him in 3d or maybe putting him in an art book. Not sure yet. The expressions are alright. The expression look more like different angles than expressions. The gestures seem stiff. I need to push the guestures more. Over all I'm taking a step towards a right direction with my art. I'm happy.

Fairy Girl

2010-11-01T17:44:00.001-06:00

I want to go to japan and do anime! I did this peice for fun( a joke). Wanted to do a different stlye and make it cute. I took to long to finish it. I need to get faster.

2010-09-11T17:01:00.001-06:00

Happy KId

2010-09-07T13:19:00.000-06:00

I've been working on kid concepts for a comic i might do. This kid looks sorta cute, but I think if i were to use him in a comic i would to mess with shapes more.. i think he is to general.

Mr. Robert Stanly

2010-08-26T02:57:00.001-06:00

I am not sure what he does, but he kicks ass doing it. He looks like some type of professional that enjoys his work. I think i did alright... I want to say some negative things, but I won't. It's an alright painting.

Cowboy in 3D!

2010-08-11T18:29:00.001-06:00

I decided to make the cowboy painting in 3d. I hope I can make it awesome. I might make it to a full character depending how this goes. :) Thanks for looking

Scooter Power!

2010-07-28T17:03:00.001-06:00

I aslo hanged with friends that I been wanting to get to know more about. Over all it was a very positive expierence for me. Like I said before I am very thankful. :)

special. I'll have to think what I did right and what I did right. Hope everyone is doing awesome thanks for looking

Im not seeing improvements....

Bus art.

2010-05-29T23:55:00.000-06:00

I go to work in orem. I take the bus so i have time to draw. I do ten pages of hands, ten pages of doodles, and ten pages of figuresa month. Plus figure drawing every satuday and my faces. i don't feel like i am getting better.. but what ever i'll keep drawing cause i like it.

Crap faces week 5

2010-05-09T21:31:00.001-06:00

They have the same expression! hah I didn't notice it until now, but i think i did some good.. just push shapes more and give more expessions i guess.

Crap faces week 4

2010-05-02T22:06:00.000-06:00

I had some good input this week from things I am doing wrong. One is that my style is sorta in between of realistic and cartoony and the viewer isn't sure what i am trying to show. If it's going to be cartoonish i should push my shapes more. the other thing was... my faces sometimes don't have the right constuction.. they are to deformed. these are things I'll be working on more. I aslo copied one of Sam nielsons designs. I am trying to understand what shapes they use better. :)

Crap faces week 3

2010-04-25T16:19:00.000-06:00

more quick faces. I need to push the design more and look why stuff is apealing.. and also not repeat the same thing over .

Figure Crap 01

2010-04-18T20:30:00.000-06:00

I've been going to the u of u for figure every saturday. this is some of the drawings i've done. I'm really having a hard time creating what i want. over all i i think its alight art. I need to find more time to practice gestures and figures.

Crap faces week 2

2010-04-18T10:36:00.000-06:00

2010-01-09T11:18:00.000-07:00

Another piece I've been stuck on, but I finished it :) I liked taking concept art to 3d . that was fun. I learned some zbrushing mistakes on this piece. I had other problems that I don't really know how to fix though. But thats okay I'm just glad to have this done

Best Friend 3d

2009-12-28T03:05:00.000-07:00

I'm glad I am finally done with this. I had a lot of trouble...At first this model had no cloths... I thought it looked very boring...then I put cloths on him and it still looked bad... I changed the color of the cloths and messed in zbrush. I think it turned out alright... Its a good step forward. I want to get good so can model characters for videogames.. I have a ways to go. Thanks for looking.

Princess

2009-12-15T19:20:00.000-07:00

WIP

The Monster Dude

2009-11-26T10:50:00.001-07:00

I had trouble wanting to finish this piece. I saw problems that i didn't like. The design and pose. It's stiff. I was going for a depressed feeling. I think I did okay. I kinda like the character. I think he has alittle charm.

Young Lady

2009-11-23T10:49:00.000-07:00

I don't know how the crap i am going to get a job with the shit i am creating. There is no way I am going to ever get good. I am upset.

The Nerdy Guy

2009-09-05T06:37:00.000-06:00

Disney Bought who!?!?!?!? Another weird painting. I feel a lot better about this one than my last painting. I know I'm repeating my self doing portait paintings...which is a problem..I'll have to change something... Maybe do them in different styles.... I don't know I'll have to think about it. Last month I don't know what was wrong.. All i wanted to do is sleep all day.. I couldn't tell if I was just sick or depressed. Hopefully this month is nicer to me. Thanks for looking.

Mrs. Crack Whore

2009-08-28T01:35:00.000-06:00

I think is my worst painting so far, but it was fun to paint. I feel i did alot of things wrong...that okay though. Hopefully my next one turns out better

Storyboard

2009-08-27T10:18:00.000-06:00

This is a story I will be working on to improve. I did this story 3-4 years ago. A few years ago i was really getting into story, but then I became director of a senior project's film called Greetings. We worked on the project for 3-4 years. The story had a lot of trouble..so after the project was over I was depressed I was a bad story teller and didn't want to do stories anymore. Anyways I think I want to do stories again. I have a long ways to improve and I am looking forward to it.

I wanted to post this to see what people thought. What things I could improve and what works well. I think the begining and the very end work well....The rest some parts don't make sense. I already have some ideas of how to fix. Anyways thanks for looking.

Just some stuff i am trying to finish

Miss Blue

2009-07-27T22:05:00.000-06:00

More practice. I'm glad I am doing these more often. They're not so special, but what’s important to me that I am getting better(hopefully). Thanks for looking.

Mr Gangster

2009-07-23T01:25:00.000-06:00

yeah, i don't know what to think. I did alright. I acomplished some things and failed at others. But it was fun. Practice, practice and more practice!

Nerd Girl

2009-07-19T04:28:00.000-06:00

Horay another painting. Just more practice to get me painting every week instead every other month. Its nothing special. I saw these awesome character paintings from a pixar movie that I am aiming for. Hopefully I can get to that skill level! Thanks for looking

Mr dude

2009-07-13T23:26:00.000-06:00

hmm not so great. I messed up. I am trying to do these once a week with other projects I am doing too. Hopefully I can keep on track. Thanks for looking

Face studies

2009-07-07T13:30:00.000-06:00

Just some studies I did.. I tried to push myself . I was working on other projects and i got frustrated so i painted faces instead. I find it relaxing painting faces. I think I'm getting better. I tried a new way to paint these faces. Instead of making it up I looked at many reference pictures. I liked it better this way. Thanks for looking.

2009-04-20T03:27:00.000-06:00

Another pointless painting. I think i did alright..not good though. I think i'll go back and fix this depending what people say. I tried to get a good background...I still need work.. I think i improved alittle. I still have alongs ways to go. I tried to do a lazy beach painting...but it just turned out to be a bird on a beach painting..I think i lost the feeling to it. I'll have to think of ways of achieving that next time. I also think my back grounds need a lot more work.. I'll have to study harder. thanks for looking. :)

RedNeck face 02
