Things to look at

It's-a MEE

I am done! Kind of.. I think..
Let's just say I have before I change my mind. It really does look like me though, in spirit and outwardly appearance and stuff. Yay for me!

Proof of life

This lazy blogger is lazy, but I'm still here! I haven't given up on this yet. So I thought I'd just show you guys some stuff I've been working on. Some of it is character design for my current school project and some is just for fun.


I'm currently working on an action/platformer game heavily influenced by "The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" . I am, as the concept artist,  in charge of developing a look for the characters.



These are small thumbnail sketches for one of the lead characters, it's a popular and efficient way for a concept artist to start with some little silhouettes. This is because if the silhouette is interesting, everything else will also be. You only worry about the shape and pose, and so it's a fast and nice way to start. This is my first try designing, it's one of our lead characters, Dr.Crumble.

Dr.Crumble is a young, genius inventor and he relies heavily upon his inventions while platforming. So I made him very tall and lean, physically not very impressive but with gimmicks and gadgets to help him along.

After that, I made a few more detailed sketches from the ones my team liked the most.

I had a lot of fun drawing this guy, and these are still the early sketches so there will be much more designing to do. YAY! After this one I'll go check with my teammates again, and make another bunch of sketches, each one will be slightly more detailed and stuff. After that I'll start to mess around with colour and then one of our main characters will be complete! Awesome.

I also made a little self portrait, once again for my Personal Developement Plan (school stuff) but really the main reason was just for fun and playing around with poses and stuff. It actually looks quite a lot like me, so I'm happy. Not done with this yet either, it needs more colour and depth! I do like where it's going though.
Oh and I've also made a new avatar for the sixthaxis (gaming forum, awesomeness), the one who can accurately guess which game I tried to cameo myself in gets free cookies or something.
It's not that impressive but I had fun and made it in 15 minutes so I'm happy



That's it, this was my proof I'm not slacking off or lying in a ditch somewhere, have a nice day and don't forget to take a moment and enjoy the sunset.
