WB characters :D

We had an assignment in class to pose out a scene with 2 Warner Bros. characters. I had so much fun with it I decided to clean it up and colour it.

Retro Spongebob

Here's a sketch for fun. Mickey Mouse style Spongebob!!

CTN Portfolio November 2013

Some shark designs I did during the summer.

I really like bugs and birds. I did the mermaid design last semester and finally got it coloured. The evil praying mantis is a female devil mantis that goes into this creepy pose when threatened. 

Sea bus sketches.

I had the idea for a show where these three animals find a treasure map and get lost trying to find the treasure. Every episode they end up at different exotic locations and meet people while trying to eventually find the treasure.

MU RULES!

My friend and I made our own Monsters University characters and we've been drawing them together back and forth. The design for the purple monster goes to my pal Brittany.
I was going for a more Mary Blair style, hope you like it!

Cotton candy pixie

She's all pink sugar dust and lollipops. I want to try to animate her in Harmony. We'll see how that goes.

PACIFIC RIM PUPPETS!

So I started making puppets (muppets?) this summer and I had just seen Pacific Rim the week before. Therefore the only logical outcome was kaiju puppets. The first one I made was Otachi because that tongue was just the coolest thing. Then I wanted to make the one that looks completely nuts (those eyes on the bottom are crazy). I will definitely make more puppets when I have time.

Creature designs do not belong to me. They are from Pacific Rim.

Some paintings

Volcano Iguana

This one was for an art trade. My friend wanted a renaissance era alchemist at work.

Birds!

Painting birds is my new game for the summer.

 Here's a zombie crow. Not sure if it eats people or other crows...

Sherlock owls :D

Sharks!

Layout Design!

Here's some of my layout assignments from semester 2. 

Our final layout assignment had to consist of 1-3 backgrounds and a character. I created this abandoned Roman circus pulling inspiration from Gian Lorenzo Bernini's sculptures.

This was for a multiplane layout assignment. The gecko crawls from the top to the bottom.

Crazed Moriarty's secret hideout.

Design Final Model Pack!

This is my final design project. We had to do a line up of 10 characters, a character turnaround, poses, expressions, hands, and a prop sheet.
