Warlords of Draenor Series

A couple months ago, as part of my daily sketch Tumblr, I decided to do a Warlords of Draenor series.  They had just released the cinematic for the expansion and I was so excited.  I ended up drawing and coloring one Warlord a day for seven days straight.  Here are the results.

Guardians of the Galaxy Drawings

I did this series of the Guardians of the Galaxy over on my Tumblr, around the time the movie came out.

Daily drawings. Superhero edition!

I started a daily sketch Tumblr earlier this year.  So far its been very successful in getting me to draw every day.  I never got around to posting any of it over here on my blog though, so I thought I would post some of the highlights.  

I'll start with a bunch of super hero drawings.  I've been doing it all with a brush pen on paper, but these I also scanned in and did some simple colors in Photoshop.

Mini Quest

It's been a year and a half now since I stopped working on Mini Quest.  It was probably the most fun project I've ever worked on, but unfortunately it was never finished.  You can still play it in its partial state on Android or IOS though.

Getting all this together was a nice trip down memory lane.  We had a small team and I did all the art (characters, monsters, backgrounds, particles and animations).  Everything except the UI.  It was such a fun project to work on, our only goal was to make a fun action RPG, which is a genre I love.

Below are all the characters and monsters I did, as well as samples of the 7 environments I made for the game.

Scrapped Comic Pages

As I mentioned a couple posts ago, my wife and I were working on a comic together.  We did the first two pages, but decided we hadn't figured enough of the story out, so we decided to scrap them.  I don't know if we'll end up doing this comic or not but it was fun to try with her.  I thought I would share those two pages here any way.

Fiore

My wife took up rapier fighting recently.  I decided to draw this of her in her outfit.  She is very happy with her hammer pants.

First look at possible new comic

I recently quit drawing Virtual Shackles.  It was a video game web comic I had been doing with a friend for four and a half years.  In the last comic I mentioned having time to work on a proper comic I'd always wanted to do, or to finish my rpg I had made at my last job.

What I'm actually going to try to do is satisfy both urges with the same project.  My goal is to start a new fantasy comic in the rpg genre.  The above image is of two characters from the comic.  I think I finally got a look I can be happy with in this image.

Green Lantern for Project Rooftop

Project Rooftop is holding another competition.  This time its for Green Lantern.  So this was my entry.

I wanted to give him more of a silhouette then he usually has, so I went with the coat look.  It also helped give him more of a sorcerer feel which I thought might be cool for someone who can conjure anything magically.

Ultimately I still wanted him to appear sleek and spacey though, so I tried to keep the forms simple and clean.  I took a chance with the pointed lantern design thinking it would reinforce that sleek look.

I know its probably awkward to carry around the lantern all the time, but I was thinking of him fighting more like a magician casting stuff, which made for a different form of visual action that I thought would be cool.

I love Skyrim

I have probably put 500 hours into playing Skyrim.  My wife and I have watched that opening so many times.  She always wants me to rush to the Sheogorath quest first thing when ever I make a new character.

I wasn't going to finish this drawing at first cause I was afraid his pose was too stiff and boring, but I ended up getting really into the inking and then the coloring it turned out better then I thought it would.

Tron

Did another one inked IRL.  My wife wanted a Tron picture she could put up at work.

Real Ink

I don't have a scanner any more so I took this with my phone and tried to clean up the levels in photoshop some.   I was trying to do some real world inking as opposed to digital.  Haven't done much of that in years.

Thanks Project Rooftop.

Project Rooftop released their list of honorable mentions for their Fantastic Four: Fashion Forward and I was one of them!  Thanks so much to everyone over there!

Spidey and Venom Page

I've worked my way back into making pages.  I used to do short 4 page stories a lot when I was a kid and in early college, but haven't done one in probably 10 years.  That's why I was kind of building my way back to it by doing some practice sketches.

I just came up with a very short one page sequence to start with, starring Venom and Spiderman.  Still not really comfortable with the coloring part, I tried some new things here.  I think I'm happy with the turnout.  What do you guys think over all?

FF

Project Rooftop is doing a Fantastic Four costume contest this month.  I was thinking of entering but I didn't really do anything novel here so we'll see.  Either way this was fun and more good practice.

Magneto

Tried to push myself more with this one.  Buildings!
