Here's my lotus and steps it took to get to the final image.

ok so here's my first post! still have lots more work todo before I call this one done.

A bunch of junk!

2011-10-18T21:34:00.001-07:00

This lovingly titled post is for the past few pieces I've done and neglected to put up here until now. Well, it's time!

This monster was a project I took on over the weekend. Featured here are a bunch of my friends from school. And stuff.

Thought I'd relax with some science fiction after a whole day of AOEO.

Purple! It didn't start out that way, but oh well. I'd call this a speed paint. probably 2 hours of work.

Concept Drawings from a Fartist (Fake Artist)

2011-09-20T13:20:00.000-07:00

My first non-challenge related post. It's a wealth of brain storming for alternate Palintonon units. Enjoy, as I bring down the visual quality of this blog yet again.

My entry to the powered armor challenge. 'nuff said.

Contractually Obligated to Submit this...

2011-06-27T18:44:00.000-07:00

Not sure why anyone would want powered armor. The cord would never be long enough.

Challenge X: Powered Armor

2011-06-27T18:02:00.000-07:00

We haven't done a challenge for awhile so let's get back to it!!! For this challenge draw a guy/gal/thing in powered armor. Have fun with it. Be creative with the tech, style ,goofyness,etc...! Go!

Palmer

2011-05-24T00:01:00.000-07:00

Took me long enough. I've been slooooowly working on it for past couple of weeks. Not too happy with the hair but its time to move on. Oh yea, this is my new fav UFC ring girl Britney Palmer.

TESV: Skyrim: Concept Art

2011-02-11T10:24:00.001-08:00

Newly released concept art in high resolution!

This one actually covers quite a few bases. I originally began this one as a simple concept painting of a bear but I decided to spend some time after hours developing an entire scene to pitch a few ideas on wildlife encounters in the game and duel wielding weapons. Luckily Todd was excited by this idea as it had never been done in an Elder Scrolls game before and he felt it was time to give it a go.

Video: Art of Skyrim

2011-02-08T07:23:00.001-08:00

This was released a couple of weeks ago on Game Informer's site but it's all over youtube now so I feel like I'm not scooping them anymore by featuring t here for a little more shameless self promotion...:) Ok, before you watch I have to talk about the fact that I don't speak in the video at all. To be honest it was a little awkward since I think the PR person was overzealous in controlling the message by not allowing me to be mic'd. My presence was essentially reduced to prop. Ah well, I can't complain too much as all the art featured in this video is mine. Hope you enjoy:)

TESV: Skyrim: Concept Art - Time Lapse Painting

2011-01-25T11:50:00.000-08:00

Finally! Some new stuff to show! Some of you may know, I've been working on Elder Scrolls 5 for the last couple of years out here at Bethesda. It's been an amazing experience to say the least. I feel like I've been learning like mad and there's no end in sight! Unfortunately, I can only share what's been made public already through Game Informer, but that will change the closer we get to release.

In the meantime, I recorded this back around Christmas 2009 using Camtasia and painting in Photoshop. I'd frequently stop and start the recording to make the clips more manageable in the editor so you may see a couple of dramatic jumps where I forgot to hit the record button:)

Monday Night Combat and stuff

2010-12-01T11:39:00.000-08:00

I've been keeping very busy with Uber and Monday Night Combat for the last two years or so. Art Directing, marketing, and PR stuff. Here's some of the more recent stuff:

Gotta Have a Hook Challenge

2010-07-19T07:50:00.001-07:00

Hi all, ol' Duder's got a lot of irons in the fire. Recently I've been participating in an open art challenge put on by WotC art director Jon Schindehette on his blog Art Order. It's been a lot of hard work and a lot of fun. Here is the assignment brief:

Description

Setting - A cavern

Characters - A Male Dwarf Fighter and a Hook Horror

Scene - The dwarf has just delivered a mighty smack to the hook horror and knocked it backward through a stalagmite and/or stalactite.

Details: The dwarf is wearing heavy scale mail armor. Wielding a warhammer and a heavy shield.

These are the thumbnails I started with: I chose number 3 as it felt the most dynamic and engaging to me:

Here is the B/W drawing and value study that will serve as the foundation to the final painting:

Next will be the final color phase coming up in the next couple of weeks.

Life Drawing - Gesture Drawing

2010-06-26T19:22:00.001-07:00

Who would've thought the Maryland/DC area had quite a thriving art community? I suppose it makes sense when one thinks about it for a minute. I'd never given much thought to Maryland until the weird idea of moving here reared it's head my way. Anyway, that said I'm making it a point to go to life drawing every week these days. Not only is it refreshing, it's *vital* if one is going to continue progressing to the next level. Montgomery College in Rockville has a great community of artists and models that meet on the weekends to do Short and Long pose drawing/painting sessions. I'm sticking to Gesture drawing right now to loosen up. I look forward to becoming more involved in the coming months. Here are some highlights from June 2010. These are all roughly 5-15 min Gesture drawings. Sorry about the poor image quality. I have no lighting rig or image stabilization available to me in the foreseeable future.

Sunday Life Drawing May 2, 2010

2010-05-03T11:10:00.001-07:00

Maria Garcia. Learned a lot on this one. I'm not at all happy with my proportions or edge quality however I did come away with some insight on how to approach next time around. There's a few nice things happening on her head. I hope I get the chance to draw her again as I definitely only caught a glimmer of her essence this time around.

Baseball!

2010-04-19T11:30:00.000-07:00

This is my first Unleaded art posting! It only took me about three years!

The DNA for this image includes:
- Monday Night Combat
- Baseball
- Designers Republic
- Tron
- Early 60's retro fashion
- Japanese Folklore
- Racing
- Anime from the 90's
- Rollerderby
- Guns

Demon Toad!

2010-04-02T10:06:00.000-07:00

Toadie is an illustration for Dr. Zimmer's D&D game. This creature is so tough that the players hacked at it for two full play sessions and it is still kicking!

Dante's Inferno!

2010-03-01T14:59:00.001-08:00

I've been kicking this one around a while and finally got motivated to finish it when I saw this months image challenge over at Gnomon of Dante's Inferno. I got inspired for this one driving down a wide open country road just east of the foothills between Boulder and Louisville CO. In the middle of blistering hot August day, a couple of road workers were filling potholes and touching up the asphalt with these long propane torches. It struck me as a sort of vision of hell to be out on such a hot day dressed in protective gear and torching a wide open, heat rippled expanse. Anyway that vision stuck with me for a while until I've finally purged it to pixel paint!

2010-02-11T22:51:00.000-08:00

Random sketch practice. I wanna see other PEEPS!

Creepy Babies Attack!

2010-02-09T00:23:00.001-08:00

I was at a toy store today with my boys and found these miniature creepy looking baby toys. All I could think about is how scary it would be if these babies started attacking at will. Shot on white printer paper.

2nd

2009-08-21T00:40:00.000-07:00

I think i'm done with it. Good exercise. I think it took me about 2 hours total.

2009-08-20T00:45:00.000-07:00

WIP. I had trouble painting. I would try to paint but draw instead. Sooooooo, learning to block things out and start carving out details. I don't know if i'm gonna finish this one but like to get some feed back. I wanna see other people post!!!!!!!!

warm up sketches

2009-08-11T23:27:00.001-07:00

I've been slowly drawing again and doing some art study. The one in black I tried a subtractive style and found that its a great way to create sharp edges. I feel so behind, but its never too late!!!

doggy in mid air

2009-07-14T13:17:00.000-07:00

Glad to see the ol' crew still contributing. hehe.
had a sketch off at work during lunch. 20mins .. wanted to go with a newspaper comic look...

Nothing but us sketches

2009-07-09T19:17:00.000-07:00

Hi from the east coast! I just checked the blog a few minutes ago and saw that ya'll have been buzy! Don't have anything to add to the topics but I'll try and fit something in if I can. When I was on vacation a couple weeks ago I managed to squeeze in a few sketches while in Whistler Village. The first is poolside sketches of girls, 2nd is landscape out the window and 3rd is when I met Sasquatch. Nice guy.

Colors Sketch x 3

2009-06-30T08:57:00.000-07:00

Supreme Commander

2009-06-11T13:20:00.000-07:00

Near the end of the original Supreme Commander I needed some diversion to keep me sane so I made this sketch for fun. It would've been cool if SC looked like this!

Some Dude

2009-06-04T01:07:00.000-07:00

Whoa! No false advertisement here. Here is a quick sketch of some dude.

More Bailout Art!

2009-05-28T23:54:00.000-07:00

That's right, Dr. Zimmer. This blog will never die. President Pun, that's me, will keep pumping out bail out art until "real" art by other artists are posted. So here is another DS sketch that I drew last night while watching ID4. Listen to me now and understand me later. Draw dammit!

Nintendo DS Wolverine!

2009-05-14T00:36:00.001-07:00

Here is an image done using the Nintendo DS and a program called, Colors! It took a little while to get used to because it is extremely basic compared to Photoshop. But the big thing about this setup is that it is ultra portable. This painting was done while sitting in the bathroom, the couch, the mall, etc... 'nuff said. Bye!

Biggy Big Big

2008-11-20T23:09:00.000-08:00

random doodle and brush fun.

Alien Invasion 1962

2008-11-15T08:17:00.000-08:00

Been a little quiet around here. Some stuff from last week I did for an art test. My spin on the Resistance universe. They didn't go for it. Not Gears of War-y enough I guess...:)

Let's make a book

2008-10-06T19:04:00.000-07:00

What's up fools? Copying and pasting from my Facebook:

I was reading a graphic novel called Flight yesterday. I've had it for a long time, but decided to pick it up again. If you don't know what it is, it's basically a collection of illustrated short stories from various artists. Some are amazing, and some are well... let's say it got me thinking, "hell, me and my friends could do this easy". It's not a new idea, we've talked about it before at various times, but never really followed up on it.

A couple of months ago I came across this site called www.blurb.com. It's basically a site for creating your own books, which, if you so choose, you could also publish. My brother and I used it to create a photo album of our trip to Asia earlier this year. It was simple, cheap and very efficient. It's free to create the book, and then you can order as many or as few as you like. Prices are very reasonable for what you get, and the range of binding and size options are impressive. Anyhow, I got to thinking... if even a handful of my friends got together to put it together, we could have a book in no time. I figure if each artist dedicated themselves to 12 pages (6 pages front and back), at 2 pages a month, we could have a book in 6 months. I say 2 because it's achievable, and I know that you're all very busy. You guys are so talented though, and I've seen what you can do when applying it to your work. I can only imagine what you could produce for something that is close to your heart. I know you guys all have ideas rolling around in your heads and personal projects you've always meant to get around to, so I thought this would be a nice opportunity to make it happen. Ideally, we could meet one night every month to give feedback and support and check on our progress.

If you're interested, please let me know, as I'd like to get things rolling while I'm inspired. In the meantime check out these links:

ZOMBIES vs COWBOYS!!!

2008-08-30T23:32:00.000-07:00

Hi all, here's a thing I just finished. Zombies vs Cowboys! This is a bookcover I did for my friend William Harms. His book will be published late this year or early 2009. You may see another variant cover emerge in October...:)

Street Fighter Late Submission

2008-08-09T00:13:00.000-07:00

My version of Dhalsim in photoshop vs my Balrog in Painter i just drew.. Drew both quickly.. i always thought of Dhalsim as a magician.. hence the pose... no colour on this sucker.. .. balrog ... what i think he would look like in my eyes. just the usual portrait shot.. trying to learn how to use painter x .. hehe. any critiques are welcome.

Chun Li - Pun ver.

2008-08-05T13:08:00.000-07:00

Here she is. My other super late Street Fighter challenge picture. There was another version of this picture but it started to look very hentai because it was in a worms eye view of her doing a high kick. At least this one, I can use the shadows to hide the crotch a little easier.

IMC Final Project

2008-08-01T16:10:00.000-07:00

It's been a while but I've been busy:) Here's the final barring any tweaks...

The illustration is from a design brief for a book called Green by Jay Lake that is due to be published soon by Tor books. Dan Dos Santos has the honor of illustrating the real cover and it's a beauty. I'm fortunate enough to have had some great input from Dan, Scott Fischer, Greg Manchess, Donato, Boris and Julie, and the rest of the IMC alumni of 2008. Thanks all! I could not have progressed as far as I did without your help and encouragement!

Medium: Digital and Oil on Panel

Hulk Smashed

2008-07-29T00:30:00.000-07:00

Hulk head doodle sculpt I did awhile back, based off the Ed McGuinness art for Red Hulk.

Sagat!

2008-07-11T13:16:00.000-07:00

Here is my super late Street Fighter entry. I orginally wanted to do a Chun Li picture but Sung did it faster than I could so I am back with another naked dude. Hope this doesn't become my "thing". Ha ha.

3D Total 4 Hour Sculpting Challenge

2008-06-16T13:24:00.000-07:00

This is for a Speed Sculpt Challenge at 3dtotal. The topic is realistic cartoon. Its a four hour challenge where you take their provided generic base mesh and speed sculpt it into a realistic interpertation of a cartoon character. Yeah, its not very realistic but its in glorious 3d!!

Yubaba from Spirited Away at 4 hours of sculpting.

Aidan wall illo

2008-05-18T23:25:00.000-07:00

This is for Aidan's playroom wall. It will be sourrounded by different learning posters, numbers, letters, calender, etc. I tried to capture a bit of Olie Josman's amazing rendering style. Started in Photoshop, did clean linework in Flash and color work back in Photoshop.

Life Drawing - 25min poses

2008-05-18T12:53:00.000-07:00

I had a pretty good morning at life drawing Saturday. I threw away a few disasters but salvaged some lessons from today's experience.
I'm beginning to utilize some of the advice of Richard Schmid from his book Alla Prima in identifying edges and blocking in values while also incorporating line drawing to identify my proportions and add some flourish here and there.

After Wedding.. the cake toppers

2008-05-16T21:16:00.000-07:00

Hey all,

I've been busy with the wedding.. and family stressing me out this last month! but here is the badly painted finished product.. the gorilla was an afterthought.. as i had no time to model myself .. and i just made it fast.. cut off a hand.. just sad. . . when i have time later i'll remodel a version of myself. . . I was so drunk on night of the banquet.. i can't remember half of it.. surprisingly i didn't puke~!

-10ske *MARRIED*

word to your mother

2008-05-06T18:49:00.000-07:00

i did a old rough draft a while back ago, and i just added more details. I guess i could add more, but i'm kinda done with this one. I used 3d to layout the perspective and the buildings and just added shit in and out.

Zbrush Tomfoolery

2008-05-06T00:30:00.001-07:00

Started messing around with Zbrush again recently, this is a sketch I worked on over the weekend.

Wedding cake Topper..UPDATE

2008-05-02T01:06:00.000-07:00

well.. I think i spent about 6hrs on this so far.. including skele, light foil underskinning and then the putty. i'm thinking of adding a couple of bows after i've cooked her.. missing the head.. i'll be working on that tomorrow night. wish me luck.. i still have to make myself and paint this model...
critiques or suggestions please. thx.

ps. forgive my modeling skills.. this will be my second time making an actual model with my hands.. so far its all been 3d.

Ibuki

2008-05-01T02:05:00.001-07:00

Another Street Fighter to make up for the craptastic last one. This idea was jacked from the end of the latest TF2 vignette.

I Did Arts at Home Also, Too

2008-04-30T18:11:00.000-07:00

Cover illo for the May issue of Sports Northwest Magazine. For those not in the know, it's supposed to be NBA Commissioner David Stern wrecking our fair town in his attempt to swipe the Supersonics.

I agree that it's lame to post nothing for 43 straight months, and then when I finally do post something, it's way off topic.

wedding!

2008-04-22T22:29:00.001-07:00

hey guys.. wedding is coming up. so Cat and I, decided (forced) to make our own cake topper! this is the beginnings . .. a quick drawing of Cat in wedding gown.. ugh.. i might change the face and i was going to have her show some skin.. till Cat told me with a stern finger there'll be children coming... sigh.. so a diamond to replace the missing skin.. I still need to draw myself. wire skeletons are already made w/ some help from Cat.. hehe. I'll post a pic of the clay model when i get some of it done. .. i still have 3 weeks. wish me luck!

uh..C-Viper?

2008-04-21T19:20:00.000-07:00

Hey guys.

Lets pretend that this is a whole-cast, EPIC street fighter collage, and its painted as good as Arnold Tsang's.
And lets pretend this I even know anything about this character, and this wasnt just an excuse to draw 'da ladies.

Late Dune entry.. Sorry!

2008-04-17T12:12:00.000-07:00

sorry it took so long guys. no colour on this pic. i'm still trying different styles of drawing.. so bare with me. don't really know where i wanna go with my own style. but if you have more artist recommendations .. i would love to see their sites..

this drawing is aptly named No More Spice.. its a priestess from dune w/ her hands open.. i wanted to pour water from her hands.. but i'm bad at sketching water. the priestess's really creep me out... especially the little sister that talks with a husky voice and knows way too much..

Zombie Pug

2008-04-14T08:52:00.000-07:00

I started designing a zombified Pug for a HL2 mod that I used to help out with couple of years ago. It was fun to play around with taking a cute pug and turning him into a muscle bound, slightly confused, man eating, cyclops dog with a bit of creepy appeal. I'll probably noodle with the body some more before moving on to the model and textures.

Here is my month late Dune challenge picture. My Feyd doesn't look like Sting but this is all I could muster with little time and almost no references. Enjoy!

I think I've played Street Fighter all of twice, but this is what I first thought it was when I first heard the name.

03/17/2008 Weekly(ish) Challenge: Street Fighter

2008-03-17T10:02:00.000-07:00

All right, nice work on the Dune pieces ya'll. I think we could start production on the new movie adaptation - Dune-Song of the Atreidies: The Musical. Maybe we could get the remaining members of REO Speedwagon and Toto on board to provide the soundtrack. Awesome to the maxx!

Okay maybe not. Anyway, on to the present challenge - Street Fighter! I know some of you will be all over this in a heartbeat. Let's give ourselves a couple of weeks for this one. Why the extra time? Well, oddly enough this challenge just happens to coincide with the deadline for submissions to the Street Fighter Art Tribute book:

http://www.udonentertainment.com/blog/?p=87

Read the rules for qualification. Otherwise do whatever you want:) Deadline is March 30th.

spice refinery

2008-03-16T23:59:00.000-07:00

Dune was my first hard on for RTS games. I see their refineries as being neglected and old, and no new ones are built in order to maximize spice production cost. Yay, my first blog.

Dune guy

2008-03-10T01:16:00.001-07:00

I hadn't seen this movie until today (yay Netflix!) so I had mostly checked out a few clips and thought the bald dudes with the big collars were pretty ballin'.

..the ever living

2008-03-07T00:34:00.000-08:00

Growing up, I couldn't wait to get home from school so I could catch the latest Thundercats episode. It's one of those things that if I looked back on it now, it probably is real bad so I'd like to think it was the greatest show ever in my head.

Please don't roll.

2008-03-05T11:15:00.001-08:00

I saw the original movie VERY late in life, (like a few months ago), and all I could think about was how god damn scared I'd be riding an over grown shoe lace that barely notices I exist.

03/05/2008 - Wednesday's Weekly Challenge: Frank Herbert's DUNE

2008-03-05T10:57:00.000-08:00

Ok let's up the ante a little. I wanna see some kitten feeding Baron Harkonnen action. Or how about your take on the Navigators? Or sting in a steel g-string. "I *WILL* KILL HIM!". Who's up for the challenge?

Wonder Woman

2008-03-04T12:27:00.001-08:00

As a kid I had a crush on Wonder Woman. ...ok *I STILL* have a big ol' crush on Wonder Woman!

[edit]After some feedback I made a few tweaks...

2008-03-03T19:10:00.000-08:00

My Favorite tv show from when i was a kid!

Marooned WIP

2008-03-03T12:14:00.000-08:00

Arrgg... I'm so far behind on this stuff. I'm working on a book cover that falls under this category however, with a newborn in the house I'm lucky if I get an hour or two in the evenings to get into this. In the meantime I've been capturing the process using Camtasia and posting on youtube. Someday I'll finish it!

If you'd like to see it from the start, go to my youtube channel here:

The Celery Stalks at Midnight is my favorite book title ever.

I was such a TMNT fan when I was young and Raphael is a bad ass. Go ninja go ninja go!

Ninja The Wonderboy

2008-02-28T11:09:00.000-08:00

There are 8 people in the world who know what the F this is. But I was born and raised by it. At the time, it was the greatest story ever told, but watching it more recently, I discovered, I was dumb as a child. *shrug*

Challenge VIII Storytime

2008-02-26T17:11:00.000-08:00

With the incredible participation last week I'm putting in another topic suggested by the one and only Tony Thai! A storybook character or scene from a story you liked as a kid. This could be a book or TV or radio show... anything story related. How's that for vague? I'm gonna go ahead and make a suggestion for Zimmer. Bill Cosby.

Marooned in Canada?

2008-02-20T13:38:00.000-08:00

A re-enactment of what happened after i didn't get my work visa... Where's the snow?!
I tried to go with Bobby's style of line work.. bah.. it was worth a try.

If I were marooned..

2008-02-19T12:27:00.000-08:00

.......I might find the time to catch up on all of my DVD's on queue.

With my pug, naturally. Who might also start to come in handy when bananas run sparse.

Popin'joy

2008-02-13T12:49:00.000-08:00

Here is my D&D character soon to come to life, Popin’joy Durden. He is a gnomish cleric in service of Dwight, the god of blue things. He is out adventuring because he can’t stand his wife and he brews his own spirits using his talents in alchemy. Popin’joy isn’t a hero, but he likes to tell people he is.

2 minute scribbles of my Human Druid and his Saint Bernard for the DnD sessions we're planning to have soon.

4 out of 5 Lex's approve adding TIOL to your daily diet. Adding TIOL to breakfast increases serotonin levels in the brain. To lunch will increase the enjoyment of bowl movements. And dinner will help you produce happier dreams more consistently.

TIOL should not be taken with other web comics. If a rash occurs on or near your eye balls, please consult a mortician.

Happy Holidays with Conan!

2007-12-25T14:42:00.000-08:00

I was planning to make a painting with a holiday theme but at the end, painting brutal hack and slash was more fun. =) This was a fun exercise and it really scratched my itch of doing a Frazetta inspired Conan.

RockBand!

2007-12-21T04:34:00.001-08:00

Ok, i couldn't sleep so i decided to sketch. This is in honour of Canada finally getting shipments of the game Rock Band! I have to pick mine up so .. this is me in Rock band form. .. i was going to add drums that's why he's missing legs.. but i got lazy.

2007-12-20T13:30:00.000-08:00

Well, I'm new here. Eka and Raf, added me. I have to say, I feel quite intimidated by all the great art.. so i'll try to post something that doesn't suck too badly. Quick sketch at lunch break. I was thinking Orc baby.. well, got work to do.. =P

Cammy

2007-12-17T00:53:00.000-08:00

Here is a picture of Cammy in the desert. No idea why she is there but desert scenes tends to be easier to work on when you don't have much time. Enjoy!
