Mermaids!

Sketch Dailies had a mermaid day the other week, so I expanded on the design of the mermaid I did in the Hipster Black Beard drawing. She was really fun to draw so I couldn't stop at one pose :)

I'll be posting to BlogSpot in batches :)

I may find BlogSpot's editor annoying to work with, but I find I really enjoy catching up with content via RSS readers.  Stuff people post tend to be less random than on Tumblr. 

Not Dead, Just Tumblin!

Hey guys, I post to Tumblr these days, and have been neglecting to do double posts to blogger.  I find the Blogger editor to be sort of cumbersome, and I like Tumblr's easy sense of connectivity.  I just might quit Blogger altogether... though of course some people have a blog and a tumblr and a deviant art and a twitter and god knows what else.  Maybe someday I'll be good about reaching multiple platforms but for now, I'm going to be Tumblring.

Here's a backlog of recent things:

Tauriel, Weta Collectible

Hello! I finally get to share my sculpture of The Hobbit's Tauriel, now that she's been revealed at San Diego Comic Con 2013!  I was working at Weta Workshop in 2011 and begged to get to sculpt pretty much the only female collectible among all those smelly dwarves!  It was a lot of hard work for me and a long process, being my first experience making a 1/6 scale figurine. I learned so much from everybody at the shop, and was well directed along the way.  I used Green Hard Chavant NSP.  The tree was sculpted by Steven Saunders, and the weapons were made by Leonard Ellis.  I still haven't seen her fully painted, I only got to see the beginning stages as Dordi Moen was painting her. The final product looks so lovely and amazing.  

Nerdy points of fun- Evangeline Lilly kindly sitting for me and letting me take photos to get her likeness (I hope you approve Miss Evangeline!), and getting to play with Tauriel's beautiful Bow and arrows!

Photos were taken from The Fwoosh.com, Itakon.it, statueforum.com, and some were found on tumblr. Also thanks to personal friends who went out and snapped pics for me too!

Loki at Comic Con

"Say my name!! SAY MY -?!"  Loki at comic con made all the panties drop O_O

Like everybody crying on the internet, I too wish I was there.

Pretty Lady on the train

Subway Punk

Tokyo Metro subway punk, copic quill pen

Inked Space Girls

Hello, added a new space girl, and have inked them both.  Working on colors for them next :)  Copic Multiliners.

Suit

Here is a space suit lady! My sense of technical design ...maybe design in general is very lacking, so the approach here is very "just kinda go with it" slash "whatever".  Hm. Very very excited about all the Sci Fi films coming up this summer!

Dr. Sketchy

This month's Dr.Sketchy entry, our model was Artemis Bare! Got to try my new pad of newsprint paper, in a convenient B4 size. Probably haven't used newsprint since college, I miss it!  Now if only charcoal wasn't so messy...  Used colored pencil instead.

Innernets cats!

Internet cats!  I did these with some really fun neon colored pencils. It was a total pain to try to get into the computer and it’s still not like how it looks on paper.  Kind of a shame, but they’re fun in person :)

Dredd 3D

I really liked Dredd 3D! Such a fun ride all the way through. Here's Judge Anderson and her Superior, Chief Judge. I'll have to do another with Anderson being more badass.

Devon Aoki

Sketching fun, model Devon Aoki

Suntory Time

Here's my Bob Harris, finally.  It's Bill Murray of course in Lost In Translation.  I'm hoping to catch more expressions from this scene,  there's so many more that look like fun to draw :)

Sleeping on the train

Sketching on the train, so fun getting a sleeping subject to stare at shamelessly.  Not creepy at all....
