The Doctor Is In!

I'm working on a cartoon/caricature of the 11th Doctor, Matt Smith, and I thought I'd share my progress so far!

Sketch Up!

I've been teaching myself to use Google Sketch Up this week, and below is one of my first models, which I plan to build up into a UFO for another project I have going. The program isn't all that hard to use, but there are some differences. Even so, I'm having fun; even my daughter wants to download a copy to play with!

Part of what inspired me to check this our was the DC Guide to Digitally Drawing Comics, where it is mentioned, as well as Chris Oatley's Artcast, a podcast by a Disney employee about all things illustration. Chris didn't mention Sketch Up specificially, but in his most recent podcast, he talked at length about understanding the form of what you are drawing, from all angles. Being that I don't have access to real UFO (does anyone?), I thought creating one in Sketch Up was the next best thing!

So, here is the result, so far! I'll be working some more on this as I go through, but I really love the idea of having 3D models available for spacecraft as well as other things; something I feel of great use to all artists!

Relay T-shirt

Here's the design I did for this year's Relay for Life benefit, an event sponsored by the American Cancer Society to encourage assistance in the cure for cancer. This is the entry for my company; in case you hadn't guessed, this year's theme is Hollywood!

Shock the Monkey!

I'm working on some digital sketches for a new project; here's a monkey character I've just started!
