My classmate's a super-villain - 2

A scene from my story idea "My classmate's a super-villain"

Sketch

Actual sketch soon to follow. Im in a car currently and can't take a decent photo.

Here are Fox and Pig from Tonko House's "The Dam Keeper". My girlfriend and I were able to see the short in Berkeley about a week ago and got I meet both Dice and Robert, who are super great guys. These are only the sketches but I painted gouache versions as gifts to Dice and Robert.

My classmate's a super villain - 1

A scene from another story idea I had about having a super villain sitting in homeroom with you.

The bear that wasn't - 4

The last panel I did for my "The Bear That Wasn't" test run. This one was my favorite because it came together so quickly and easily.

The bear that wasn't - pt. 3

Here is the third pic I did from "The bear that wasn't" by Frank Tashlin. Ill have to finish the whole story one of these days, it was fun and seemingly easy to draw...probably cause there is already some source material to steal from...

The bear that wasn't...pt 2

Wellllllp...back from CTN, which I'll talk more about later, but here is another scene from the story "The bear that wasn't..." by Frank Tishlin.

Getting ready for CTN

Just updating my portfolio for my trip to CTN this weekend. Its been hectic but we're getting there with the final touches.

Here's a pic of my version of the story "The Bear that wasn't" by Frank Tashlin

Crabs

Crabs are awesome yet freaky, they can be cute(fiddler crab) but then they do crazy stuff like walk sideways which creeps me out.

gouache

Christmas cheer

So Halloween just ended and Im already doing Christmas stuff. Im kind of upset with myself for not stopping at Thanksgiving...oh well...

Trick 'R' Treat updated

Here is the painting I started on Halloween but didn't finish until today.

Haunted house sketch

I found an old sketch of a haunted house so I colored it and here it is...

digital-15min

Unused title page

This title page was for a short story I worked on but wasn't the final choice as a cover.

Happy Halloween!

Only a sketch for now, work prevented me from finishing the actual painting. Ill get it up in the next day or so.

Happy Halloweeeen!

Gouache

Count Bloodcount

The greatest vampire character ever created...thank you Chuck Jones...thank you...

digital - 30min

Dino-tex

I painted this one in gouache earlier but didn't have a chance to scan it before it went to Trickster art gallery. I'll get a shot of it on Saturday night at the opening.

The Wolfman

I thoroughly enjoy classic horror movies and watching Lon Chaney jr, run around the woods at night in dog make up still brings a smile to my face.

gouache - 5x7in

Witch Hazel final (finally)

Here's the final gouache painting of Hazel.

Jason sketch

Here's our old buddy Jason wandering around Crystal Lake when he stumbles on some new friends.
Sketch = now
Painting = soon

Witch Hazel revisited

A new version of witch Hazel.
(painting soon to come!)

Witch Hazel

My favorite witch in the whole wide world, witch Hazel. This is a sketch for now but Im not crazy about it so Im gonna do a new gouache one tomorrow.

Slimer

Everyone's favorite chubby, slobbish green ghost!

quick mad Dr.

I didn't have too much time today to do a painting but here's a quick 15 min sketch of a mad doctor from Scooby Doo. I'll do a full rendered version soon.

20,000 leagues under the sea

Squids are a little freaky but giant squids are utterly terrifying. Captain Nemo was a nut to go head to head with this one.

Gouache - 1 1/2hr

Hyde and go tweet

This is another one of my favorite episodes, "Hyde and go tweet". It was included as part as the hilarious Looney Tunes movie "Quackbusters". In this one, Tweety falls into a jug of Dr. Jekyll's "Hyde" formula and then proceeds to terrorize Sylvester.

2hr - gouache

Nessy

Loch Ness Monster
1 1/2 - gouache
One of my favorite creatures of all time, Nessy.

Monster in my bedroom

Quick sketch tonight but tomorrow I'll paint this one!

The Neon Phantom

Another classic Scooby Doo villain, the Neon Phantom.

Bloodcount bat

Quick one tonight.

Count Bloodcount in his bat form. One of my all time favorite Looney Tunes episodes, "Transylania 6-5000".

Halloween: bats!

Here are some cute little bats...

Space Kook update!

Here is the gouache painting of Space Kook!

Carlotta, the gypsy - Scooby Doo villainess

This is kind of an oddball villain but I haven't done a female character yet for Halloween so her she is! (Actually she was a dude in drag but I'll count it).

Halloween 7: Space Kook!

Space kook! One of my favorite Scooby Doo characters because of how ridiculous he is.

This is only a sketch, painting will come later.

Halloween 6: Igor

Young Frankenstein is my favorite movie of all time. This was inspired by the late Marty Feldman, who was hilarious as I-gor.

Halloween season 5: Vincent Price - House of Wax

Vincent Price in one of his classic roles as the melty-faced Prof. Henry Jarrod.

The Cookie Monster!
Still technically a monster. An cute and hilarious one, but a monster none the less...

Here is that drawing:
