QDF - Burton

So at work every Friday we have a quick 1 hour speed paint session during our lunch break. Here is what I came up with.

CHOW WIP + Sketchbook Nonsensticles

So here are a few sketches for CHOW# 243 : War of the Magi.  I am running with this Death (Dark) Magi style.  I have a few ideas I want to get down.  I like the general direction these are heading.  The chick has some plainness, and I definitely need to push her costume design a bit more.  This is my first time running with the CHOW folk, so lets just see how it all pans out.  So far I am liking it.  Also here goes what I've been up to in my sketchbook as of late.

So this past weekend I had some good times with some friends, and had some complete days.  Overall it was just a great weekend and towards the end of Sunday, some nostalgia of younger me began to creep up on me.  It was and interesting experience, and I was reminded of who I was, how far I've come, and how I've changed, and how much further I have to go.  I took this past Sunday as a nice lesson on how pleasant things can be and how surrounding yourself with the right people can really add a richness to life.  So now I'll just leave you with this video of this guy who has never seen this sheet music, and is a badass, but more importantly, just loves doing what he does.  LOOK AT THEM FINGERS FLY!

Quick Draw Friday - Space Cowboy + Tron (update)

Lunchtime Quick Draw Friday time! Topic was Space Cowboy

and last weeks was movie poster remake:

Collab Craziness!

So as of late Rejean and Kayo have come back to the states from Japan.  We have been hanging out, and I thought it would awesome to have RJ be a guest on my livestream and we could do a collab.  Without thinking about things too much and just naturally letting them develop, we ended up with this:

We both had lots of fun working on it, and enjoyed the chat and whole experience.  We got to really make new art decisions, because we have such different workflows and we had to adapt to this very organic and alive process of switching back and forth.  Hopefully we well get a chance to finish this up before he heads back to Japan.

On another collaboration note, me and Crazy Spork I Am started a collab last year, and had some help from Kirby UFO as well.  This was my take on her famed Nurse Lacey character, and we had a similar back and forth process but online.  The disadvantage to that is we didn't get to see the actual changes being made, only got to see the image after the fact.  Still was a very fun and different process due to artistic decisions out of my control and giving me a great piece to continue working on.  Here is Nurse Lacey in all of her seductive glory:
