Finished Cammy illustration. Been on a big Street Fighter kick lately, (gratuitous self-promotion incoming) even made a tumblr for it.

Whatcha think of the illustration?

The best thing about practicing illustrations is when you find out what no longer works for you and have to try new things to get a result you’re satisfied with.

How I used to layered to form the lips just doesn’t cut it anymore. While there are some other minor adjustments, adjusting the mouth made a huge difference to me.

If you know what this pumpkin is then we are the best of friends.*

*Dennis, you don’t count since we’re the same person and I know you know the answer. Fuck off!!

Best pumpkin ever. I wonder if it was carved under a killing moon.

Even Countess Renier would approve

After a couple of sketches, thought I’d go for a more realistic Cammy in a static pose. I wanted to try a more stoic image of the character as they’re a bit rarer.

I hope to have a further progressed image later in the week and ideally finish it by next weekend.

My goal is to finish an illustration I can put on my 360 Tournament Stick. As the buttons can obscure a lot of the image I’m trying to rely on a standing pose I can place on the left hand side of the surface. After doing a few sketches I think I’ll either focus on Chun-Li or Cammy (and will post as I get closer to a final pose and begin working on the final illustration).

Sketch tomorrow, tonight - Justin Wong comeback in MvC 2 (crowd reactions are equal parts hilarious and amazing).

To prevent this from being from turning into a large inane rant from myself on the subject- I’m going to just reblog this. It makes a great talking point.

An entry for a contest. It gave me an excuse to illustrate Indy while trying out the methodology (not the right word but the closest one I can think of at the moment) Andrew Jones uses.

Lot of fun to try.

China celebrates 60 years of communist rule. This picture is impressive but also kind of freaky just how many of them there are. Full gallery of photos can be seen here at Boston.com

Those are some really interesting shots.

Morgan LeFlay Rough

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 00:14:50 -0500

Currently working on an illustration on the “Tales of Monkey Island” character Morgan LeFlay. I’m working in a really rough manner to try and get the lighting and color where I’m content with it before doing a more finished render. I generally zoom out (seen below) to see if it works in a small scale. If it doesn’t work there, it likely won’t work when it’s larger.

Hoping to get a more polish iteration out later this week.

These were created with SketchBook Mobile on the iPhone. I haven’t really had a chance to play with the coloring but initial impressions with just sketching are really positive. I think it’s going for 3 bucks and might be worth your money if you’re looking to sketch on the go.

Honestly I can’t find the words to describe how stunning these images are. There is some work to go through the pages and comments but well worth your time.

Varient on the image where Phoebe is pulling gunk off her shoe. Please click for full sized image.

While both images came about the same time, the focus being her not paying attention to the monster in her immediate vicinity, the shoe image I felt was stronger as it had more personality behind it. I needed to get the remaining image out in some recognizable form hence this quick sketch.

I think I’m going to post when new ‘worthwhile’ drawings are up on my Twitter as well. Even if the friends and colleagues response is a small fraction of what I received on my latest Hollie image, it should help me improve along the way.
