Puppet vs. Motoko

Work in progress on my second wood panel for a redo of Ghost in the Shell. This is the mental fight scene between Kusangi and the Puppet Master where he infiltrates her mind and attempts to merge to her very being.

WIP

This is my first real attempt at digital painting. I'm using a custom brush that mimics paint on canvas and so far i love it. This is a portrait of Harley's Joker, a cosplayer who cosplays as vintage Joker from the older Batman movies. 

Garrus Vakarian

After I finished Garrus's eyepiece in Illustrator, I played around in PS and came up with this awesome thing. I'd totally wear this on a shirt.

Hats, hats, and hats

So, for a store signage project I made about 25 recognizable video game hats/masks/head pieces. Not totally sure how I'm going to arrange them yet, but let's see if anyone out there can identify all these hmm..?

Monsters!

Here are some Threadless designs I came up with for a "Create your own monster" challenge. Here's the link to vote http://thrdl.es/~/1OQE if anyone wants to help make these designs real!

Invoker

Watercolor piece I did of Invoker (DoTA, DoTA 2) for my boyfriend's birthday.

Monsters

Some monster activity book pages I did for the RAWRR! activity book created by SCAD Illustration students. I ended up scrapping all of my previous sketches for something that made a little more sense given the context and interactive aspect.

The Tempest

Tight sketch for The Tempest by Shakespeare poster I'm working on.

Portraits

some 20 drawings and one 40 minute drawing I did in portrait illustration class.

RAWR! sketches

Here are some sketches I did recently for an adult monster activity book called RAWR!

Wolfmother and Baroness posters

Here are the two final images for the Wolfmother and Baroness posters. I'm overall pretty happy with both, but the top half of the Baroness poster is kinda meh in my opinion and looks sloppy.

Wolfmother and Baroness poster ideas

I'm created a few band posters, namely for Wolfmother and Baroness for my portfolio. The top is a rough idea of what I want this cosmic, psychedelic poster to look like, and the bottom are sketches for the Baroness poster. For each one, I thought about what I pictured visually while listening to each band an tried to portray that, in a sense anyway.

super maybe final Dethklok image

Alright, so I wasn't really happy with the text I had in the other image because it was just some grungy text I found on a website, so I decided to just make my own so that it would look how I wanted to look and appear more cohesive and integrated into the piece. I did the same technique on the text as I did with the skull but I  made the outer glow red, which I'm still not super sure about; I wanted it to stand apart from the image somehow in a subtle way, but I wouldn't say it looks necessarily better than if the glow was white...hm, either way, IT'S METAL!

Metal Shirt

I decided on a whim to make a band t-shirt for the Dethklok concert coming up that I'll be going to this weekend. I figured "hey, t-shirts are $25 at concerts, and half the time they're kind of ugly, so I'll make one for super cheap and it'll be awesome!" I spent $8 total for two black t-shirts for my boyfriend and myself, already had the shirt transfer paper lying around the house. I looked at the Dethklok skull that's in the show and went off of that kind of design but obviously went off my own design and perspective. It's all pen on paper and I scanned it in and did some fancy Photoshop stuff and played around with the linework until I liked it and finally added the awesome metal font and tada! cheap band shirts that are probably better than the actual shirts at the concert.

A sketch a day...

Sketches I did over the past couple of days for my "sketch a day" determination project. The first one I did while listening to Wolfmother, who I've been obsessed with for the last few weeks...they're just...AWESOME. The second one was just an idea going off of the feather and skull motif that are in my earlier sketches.

Those dead eyes

This is a colored pencil drawing I did of a still life I set up. Total, this took around 30 hours of work to complete and used up 2 black, 1 dark blue, 2 violet, and 1 tuscan red Prismacolor colored pencils completely, which gave my hands massive cramps.
