More Art

June 27, 2006

These are a couple of digital paintings I did the day the music (aka, my laptop) died. These were done completely with my tablet, no pencil art or scanning involved.

Yoda
Not sure what happened to Yoda's pupils there :-P

Surfer Guy
Just some shirtless, blue haired dude with a board

I'll probably put some more stuff up tomorrow. Whoo :-P

May 6th, 2006 - The Circle is Complete

April 29, 2006

Yeah, Star Wars VII is coming to theater's! YAY! No, seriously, it's only coming to DVD ;-)

May 6th, as I predicted, I will be back at the old register again. Thank goodness :-P. My sleep "schedule" as of late has been so screwed it's not funny. Also, I have yet to take the driving test. Tuesday and Wednesday I slept right through 7am and Thursday I spent my entire 15 minute break trying to ge through, to no avail :-P. So I'm going to try again this week and hopefully I'll luck out.

Speaking of circles, my interests seem to be changing again. The last time this happened was in 1997 when I was introduced to computers. Now I seem to be getting back to my roots in art... with computers of course ;-). The whole comic thing sparked my intrest again and I'm left wondering why I quit in the first place. I take that back, I quit because a) I couldn't get my frackin' pencil drawings to look like the book, b) I thought there was no money in it. I've figured both things out: pencil drawings suck, and I can make a killing as a graphics artist. I spent most of this afternoon redesigning my character in my comic and this is what I came up with:

Matt Cartoon Wal-Mart Man
Me in my "little vest"

Bad Ass Jedi Knight Matt
Bad Ass Jedi Knight Matt

As you can see the hair is more normal now, the glasses shrank and I've switched to a harder shading style (the airbrush thing was just a pain in the butt). All this arty stuff has made me realize one thing: painting with a mouse is murder. That said, this coming pay check I'm going to invest in a graphics tablet.

Well, I've rambled on long enough. I probably need to be getting to bed here soon as there's another early day tomorrow :-P.
