Lunchtime sketches

Lunchtime Speed Sculpt

Lunchtime in Brown Bag and a bunch of us met up in the kitchen area and had a go at some speed sculpts. Good laugh was had by everyone, I managed to get a dinosaur in there, even if its only one side of his head..

Digital sculpture, update

update on a piece i'm working on in Zbrush...nuff said!!

40min Speed Sculpt

speed sculpt done during lunchtime today, based off an old sketch from a while back..

Moleskin Sketches

Got a sweet new moleskin sketchbook at christmas, been scribbling away in it, trying to gt to grips with drawing on white paper again after so long using brown card. results are not overly terrible, apologies for the dinosaurs!

Orcs and guns!

 

Still on a buzz from 'The Hobbit', so yea, Azog or summat, he's like the bad dude, who is totally badass and puts other villains to shame. Gets his lower arm cut off, and then has a spikey nastiness impaled through his stump to form a prosthetic- how much more bad-ass can you get?

 

sat down with some actual reference for a change and drew these slightly steampunky guns for a super secret project. please forget this image exists after you look at it....

move along,

 nothing to see here..

New Year, New Stuff..

G'day folks! Happy new year! thought i'd start the year by inflicting some blog updates on you all.

Starting off its the WIP update to my Trex Zbrush sculpt, starting into color, scales etc.. (lets face it, it wouldn't be a post by me without a Dinosaur of some description)

 

Some walking dead inspired Zombies here, sketched while re-watching the first season with my brother.

on a bit of a Tolkien buzz at the moment (who isn't after the latest Hobbit movie??), wizards and Orcs are on my mind, there is a dragon in there somewhere too, he will find his way onto paper soon, or perhaps into Zbrush..

Dragons, Balrogs and Wolves- a week of Sketching

A week off work, a chance to do some extra scribbles and doodles! for a change, regular viewers will notice there are no Dinosaurs or Aliens. You're welcome.

 I had the idea of doing a painting of the Balrog Vs Gandalf on a large canvas I have. some thumbnail doodles below prove that I started looking into this idea.

 

Boom- a robot, I gave up aliens and dinos for this post but this guy snuck in!

Quick Marker Scribble

I have not been updating lots recently, need to start getting back into the habit. meanwhile here is a quick sketch from lunchtime- you guys are in for a treat, this time its not a black Biro scribble..

Avengers of Roarsville!

Its official!! season 2 of Henry Hugglemonster has been announced! 

and on that note I thought it would be a good time to share a Hugglemonster mash-up that was done earlier in the year (But had not been able to post it due to an unreleased character) 

So here it is, a Monstery version of Marvel's Avengers.

each character was done with Pen and Watercolor on brown card before being slapped together in a New York scene.

First, Henry as Cap' Merica!

 

Cobby the inventor as Iron Man!

Summer as Black Widow

 

Denzel as the God of Thunder- THOR!

 

The mighty Estelle as Hulk

 

and finally the bad-guy, Roddy as Loki

Truck Raptor!

Truck thingy and Raptor critter! I swear one day i will stop drawing dinosaurs..Y'all might be waiting a while though..

Vehicle thingys

Instead of attempting to scribble odd robots and dinosaurs, I've decided to attempt to scribble some trucks and ships instead. Although I see now one of them has kind of robot-esque legs.. Dammit!

Friday Sketches II

Going for a 'Less is more' approach this week, just 4 little doodles I've done this week. Robot buzz from last week is carrying over with an additional Nasa element.........

Sketch Dump Friday

 lots of random sketches child-like scrawls in pen from the last few days, on a bit of a robot buzz at the moment if you couldn't tell from the results..

More Kaiju

Some more Kaiju doodles, more watercolors. I think this could become a new epidemic on this blog, much like aliens, robots and dinosaurs already infect the place.

Lunchtime Kaiju

Saw Pacific Rim on the weekend,blown away by everything, particularly the creature design, so when i was out at lunch yesterday I decided to have a go at some of my own Kaiju designs. A bit rough and ready, but tonnes of fun. (about 26,000 tonnes to be exact)

Sunday Sketching

Hey folks, been a while since I posted, here are some scribbles done in StarBucks and Natural History Museum in Dubs, met up with fellow scribblers from Brown Bag and hung around drawing all kinds of crazy stuffs. one day I will post some proper art that does'nt revolve around robots.or aliens.or dinosaurs.. I don't have a timeframe for that happening however.

Iron Cobby (Hugglemonsters)

Saw Iron Man 3 yesterday, completely blown away.. so I couldn't resist a sneak peak at part of a larger Huggle-mashup that I have yet to reveal.  Cobby as Iron man. I figure he is the inventor of the show, he must have made one of these suits for himself at some point. (anyone who doesn't know Cobby, check out Disney Brown Bags 'Henry Hugglemonster'- its awesome!)

watercolor and acrylic on brown card paper

Digital Painting Practice

Been a while since I updated, was working on another Hugglemonsters Mashup that will be uploaded in a few weeks (certain characters in it are not released on TV yet so it will have to wait), in the meantime here are some painting sketchey things I've been doing.

 found some cool photos and tried to roughly capture the color etc freehand.

 posted a sketch a few weeks back and revisited it in my free time to practice some new techniques I've learned from the Wizards of BBF. also made a cool new cover image, killing 2 birds with one stone!

'Game of Roars'

Another Hugglemonsters mashup, this time- Game of Thrones!

began sketching Daddo in the iconic 'Eddard Stark' pose.

final sketch, watercolor + acrylic, with some final touching up in Photoshop.
