P is for Poses

These are some poses I created for the Angry Beavers Sisters pilot for Nickelodeon. 

N is for Nickelodeon

These are some of the main character designs, turnarounds, and mouth charts I created for the Angry Beavers Sisters Pilot for Nickelodeon.  
 

Z is for Zach

My friend Zach needed some art to help him visualize his idea. This is what I came up for him and below is the rough version.

B is for Baby

Wow, I am going to be a grandparent soon and I'm so excited! My daughter Hannah asked if I could create a piece of art for the baby's room. She wanted something with a monkey, elephant, and giraffe so above is what I came up with. Each square is a separate piece and was printed on a 14x14 canvas frame. I had Costco print them out and when they arrived I was impressed with the quality and how nice they looked. Definitely using them again!

P is for Practice

I wanted to get back into sketching and had asked some of the animators at work if they would like to work on a drawing exercise together. The exercise has you work with 3 basic shapes and 3 basic colors that are assigned to each shape. Everyone had to choose a theme and make sure they used all the space inside the shapes. For my theme I chose Guardians of the Galaxy and the art piece above was my completed assignment.

After the shapes had been completed the next part of the exercise was to break the character out of its shape and design it. Part of this exercise was to use the same monochromatic palette for the color that represented the shape you were using. Above is my character design for Ronan the Destroyer and I referenced the old clone wars cartoon to for the specific art style. 

W is for Whisky

This is Casey's last week working on our team. He was a lot of fun and a great animator. I wanted to give him a sketch as a going away gift so today I quickly put something together...hope he likes it, heh.

You will truly be missed Green Knight, CHEERS!

T is for Totoro

My daughter requested a drawing of her and Totoro. I thought it would be best to combine the character and Dylan's favorite place...Hogwarts. Of course she had to sport her Slytherin scarf and Deathly Hallows T-shirt. I imagined Dylan showing off her fuzzy friend while they flew around the school.

B is for Burton

This is a development piece for a co worker its a fun project that I'm helping him develop. The pine air freshener helps Burton see through dark places and the scent helps to ward off the undead.

L is for Leg

Completed some leg poses and a first pass for a walk cycle. My daughter is going to use the poses to animate a walk for my wife's website.

B is for Brandi

Over the weekend our friend Brandi was sporting this wicked outfit during the street fair. She was hoping to run into a crazy woman she called the Super Bitch! Super Bitch was a lady hanging out at a local bar that was sporting a superman outfit that had Styrofoam muscles.

A is for Arms

Created some arm poses for Mike, these can be mixed and matched to create a variety of poses.

M is for Mike

Just got back from vacation and started back on my wife's new website. Here are some mouth and eye shapes I completed over the weekend.

E is for Eye

Finished some eye expressions and applied some of the existing mouth shapes to see if they will work. Cool to see cartoon Kelly coming to life :)

M is for Mouth

Here's a couple of mouth charts I finished over the weekend for my wife's new website. The idea is to create pieces that she can mix and match to create different expressions. The next part will be eye and hand charts.

R is for Redo

Update: another version of Mike he wasn't too fond of the Flintstone look for his caricature so I adjusted him to match Kelly a little more.

V is for Video

Helping my wife with another business website. I attempted to stylize her friend Mike and her as if they were a creation from the old Hanna Barbera studios.

W is for Waffle!

Another co-worker who cooks up some killer waffles for all the animators once a month. Her little dog Milo is always following her around.

T is for Troll!

Here's another co-worker that loves to be a troll when replying to spam e-mails. He's a funny guy and loves his little buddy J.J. I figure to use the trolling idea as his alias for my imaginary cartoon show.
