Brett Walkcycle WIP 2

Finally took some time again to work on this walkcycle animation, it's really rough and it's missing the inbetweens. I tells ya, it looks easier then it is!

And last but not least, a picture inspired by my crazy facebook friends:

Happy drinking Holidays

So I drew something up for the holidays in spirit of my work (since I'm spending most of my time there anyway). Here's some of my colleagues (in their chosen avatars) drinking and working!

The Balrog and Santa

Don't know why but I wanted to draw Santa in the Balrog's cave, Gandalf are Santa must be the same guys...It's one of those things you think to yourself, why did I not plan this properly haha

Finished picture:

Initial sketch with tones:

Walcycle Prep

Today I started the roughs on my walkcycle I'm doing on a friends' character. It's fun how everything from college is coming back real quickly, but still it's obvious animation is about experience. SO I'll have to practice, practice, practice! Underneath you'll see my initial sketch of him, and then I pencilled in one of the poses I drew for my walkcycle and put some colors on it for reference.

Edit: Did a rough of the walk:

Heroes4hire.com : Page 6&7 - project finished

So, did another two pages in one night, but I think the lack of sleep this night really played tricks on my mind. Page 6 looks like a freaking (bad) sketch, then again I do like the last panel of that. Basically I normally had scripted 4 pages, but I condensed it into 2. Which means I lost a lot of the jokes I had planned in, instead I just have the heroes dropping into the scene, and you know..the rest as they is history...

>Damn I just messed up that last page. Just imagine the fat kid saying "Timmmyyyyy"...and he was meant to look badass! NooooOOOOooOOOO!

Heroes 4 Hire.com Page 4 & 5 (updated)

So as the deadline draws ever closer, I need to work extra hard, pumped out another page and a half tonight, that leaves 3.5 more pages to do before Sunday! Nobody said it would be easy!

Personally I really liked the drawings I did, but to save time I choose to put the blacks in Photoshop, which doesn't really look that nice. I'm not really great at placing (never mind writing) text either :D

Page 5 introduces our main characters. Baldy just catches a glimpse of them as the elevator doors are closing. Still 3 pages to go but my enthusiasm is slowly fading to bring this to completion :(

December Pummel Challenge

Started my entry for my monthly match over at penciljack.org, anybody interested in going head to head against other COMIC artists let me know and I'll give you the details on how to join up. It's a great community and the challenges are all in good fun, it's more about sharing your work and developing your own styles. Anyway as every month I'm starting way too late, I had a little story in mind which will be about 8-10 pages, so since the deadline is 25/09 I have little time left. Anyway just posting my work in progress as usual :
