Here I was mostly playing around with different kinds of marks and brushes - found some marks I really like.

Some doots I forgot to post!

Blogger! I neglected you!  I got distracted with tumblr and forgot to keep you updated I'm so sorry! Can you ever learn to forgive me?

So anyway, here's some of the stuff I haven't been posting here:

And here are some little brushy details because I like them.

And another painting!

Meanwhile...

Somewhere, deep in the space cave a Space Dracula uses the space internet - watching the SpaceYoutubes, space chatting on DracuChat...

 ... being sort of a spacejerk to his friends.

Beep beep.

Impasse

At an impasse...

You can do it Spaceman! Yeah! Yeah! Go! Go!

... oh dear.

Descent!

When we last saw our hero tragedy had struck.  His mighty steed and friend Spacehorse was taken by the ferocious Spacetroll, surely to be devoured!  

With the journey through the space cave nearly complete and Spacehorse’s fate certainly sealed should Spaceman accept the grim reality and soldier on, or climb down into the abyss on the sliver of a chance that there is still hope for his loyal companion?

As if there was ever really any doubt.  Spaceman soldiers on.

Further Space Draculas!

Some further Space Draculas, who are from space.

And to top off all the Dracula we have some Dracuspressions.  Dracmotions.  Draceelings.  errr something like that.

Space Dracula, Dear Reader

Dear Readers, I present to you Spaceman's arch nemesis: The Space Draculas!  Pure evil! Sort of adorable!

There's a half constructed plot that runs around all those pictures involving kidnapped Space Princesses, space swords, space fashion dilemmas, lonely space trolls in space caves, and obviously space vampires that may become coherent at some point.  Right now it's just a pile of ridiculous ideas which is perfectly ok by me.  There's another batch or two of Space Draculas on the way.

Megaman! Samus! Space Dracula!

Some rendering studies / photoshop experiments for a video game related project I'm working on.  Fake pixels!  Really fun stuff.

In other news here are some Space Draculas.

There will likely be more Space Dracula soon.  Also no, I'm not sure why he needs the helmet.

Little Witch

Here's a thing for cup'o'doodle!  I may have gotten a little carried away with this one.  You can see it with the doodle it came from over here.

In all the mucking about with photoshop I made some effects which I thought were pretty neat - I wound up toning it down quite a bit in the final image but here are some little detail shots with it cranked all the way up:

BMO!

A take on BMO (maybe his parents?!?!?!?) for the Ten Paces and Draw Character Redesign: Adventure Time!

Hoorah!

Cup'o'Doodle Dragon

A quick little dragon for Cup'o'Doodle

Math Magician! Owls!

Earlier this year the lovely folks at ABC Teach offered me the opportunity to illustrate a Math Magician iPhone app.  So I pretty much got to draw wizards all day, which is fantastic.  Anyway, the app came out the other week and I can finally post some of the work!

So here's some development work I did:

There are some screenshots of some of the other paintings and things over here!

Cup 'o' Doodle: Space Lady

Just a quick little thingerdoodle for Cup'o'Doodle!  You can see the shape it came from over here!

Lonely Space Experiment

Another little experiment.

Beep beep.

Fantastic Mr. Fox!

Another drawing for the Character Redesign Thingy (official title, clearly) over at Ten Paces and Draw!  This bi-weeks theme was Wes Anderson movies so I drew myself a Mr. Fox (of Fantastic fame).  Had a lot of fun playing around with that demented steamboat willy / Disney look and faking an ink look.

And here's another variant without the background.

Yesindeed.
