New Contest Illustrations

Logo Design for A$AP MOB contest on Creative Allies. Wanted a simple and readable design and headphones resonates hip-hop for me. You can see the design and vote, show me support here!

This one was for a t-shirt and toy design contest on Threadless. Threadless and Mighty Jaxx collaborated together to put together this contest. The winners recieve cash prizes and their design made into toys! How badass is that?! I had to enter just for the facts that I haven’t learned how to 3-D model yet (at least this kind of detail) and I have always been interested in toy design. 3-D printing can also be rather expensive! I created robot #27, the first robot to be made with a synthetic and robotic heart. I can design robots forever so expect more of these in the future perhaps and maybe I’ll end up printing them myself on shirts, as toys, or maybe stickers… hmmm stickers sounds like a plan! This contest and my Threadless profile can be found HERE.

Wearing Converse

 Some new character designs I did in Sketchbook Pro. First time ever using it and so far so good, I like it for drawing and its brushes. These two are the first of many designs I'm doing the next is a space girl. (the sketch is at the bottom of the post) I am also screen printing these onto shirts. Two colors: converse and shadows.

Onto the Villains

Here's the first two Villains I designed for Chromogenesis. First is the main Antagonist of the story Anance (Latin for Control, Control over fate.) She needs color to survive, she can't manipulate it but rather just takes it all for herself. In the game she is the most de-saturated (besides her throne room).

Variations of Make-up Designs

Two other costume designs before coming up with the one I picked to use.

Silhouette Studies

Second Villain is Stain, another color manipulator but for own selfish purposes. He uses a cybernetic arm to take color to become more powerful. He stores it into his tattoo. (The more powerful he is the more colorful  his tattoo.)

Chromogenesis Heroes

Here's the first 3 heroes I did for my Chromogenesis story. The first one is the main character Hue, who has the power to manipulate color using a futuristic airbrush called a Chromograff. I did some call-outs for it and of a mask he would wear while painting.

Chromograff

The next two heroes are supporting characters that would be playable in my game. They are Amp & Bass and are twins that manipulate sound. One of my first digital paintings I ever did was of Amp, but it took me forever and is pretty horrible, but hey it was my first time painting in Photoshop. It's a crazy improvement in my digital skills since then, so I figured that would be worth it to see.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! For this speed paint we picked from B-Movie Monsters... The Mutant. The Mutant is from the movie This Island Earth. For this one I made the mistake of looking up what he looked like before I started which was a mistake. I wasn't super happy with this one because I think it's too close to the actual design but oh well on to the next, although I am digging his glowing mouth.

ROBOT!

That Color layer Glazing technique again because I did it wrong on the spider. Except now I feel like I messed up something in this process a different way this time... oh well third times the charm.

This one started as a drawing in my sketchbook with the prompt of "Robot Segway."
