Sketchbook Update – Tweaks

I’ve been tweaking bits and pieces of this super awesome website some more. I added a new plugin to the gallery which, though it loads everything in bulk, makes it much easier to browse through images. The image views don’t count as single hits on the site which will dramatically decrease the daily views count [...]

Shroud

I drew something similar to this in my sketchbook a few days back and I kinda wanted to give the idea more room. That didn’t happen and this basically turned into an excuse to try out a bunch of different, and not necessarily good looking, stuff. Can’t say I love it but there it is. [...]

Sketchbook Update – Apocalypse Edition

The Mayan Apocalypse came and went and the only thing I got out of it was a reaffirmation of my intellectual superiority over a bunch of people that couldn’t really have been that bright to begin with. I been doing a bunch of changes on my site, just cutting the fat and small tweaks which [...]

Sketchbook Update – I’ve been time traveling…

It feels like July was just last week. Freakin’ September already… I haven’t been very prolific lately. I kinda miss the time when I was unemployed and I could draw all day. Then again, I was broke back then so I don’t really miss it that much. But anyway, for this batch I’ve started to [...]

Sunbathing Deux

I did this piece a few years ago. It’s pretty horrible to look at now and I’ve pretty much disowned it but I keep it around as a gauge of my progress. It was also the very first coloring piece where I didn’t use a pre-existing character AND my very first pin-up. Fast forward a [...]

Sketchbook Update – Late Edition

When I say that this is a “Late Edition,” I don’t mean that this is coming in late (because it’s still within my “one set of scans a month” rule), I mean to say that this year’s sketchbook as a whole is coming in late. It’s almost the end of June and I should be [...]

Relaxing

This was supposed to be a quickie in between commissions but, of course, I spent way longer on it that I intended. Was mostly trying to play around with different kinds of brushes and trying to add texture to a mostly flat image. Maybe I overdid it but I do kinda like the look of [...]

Sketchbook Update – Nothing rhymes with Orange

I started this sketchbook way back in October of 2010 and, about a month ago, I finally completed its final page. I was filling pages at a good pace and was aiming to have it completed by early fall ’11 but, as it inevitably seems to happen, I was forced to slow down towards the end [...]

XOXO

My first piece of the year. Apologies for the lack of updates but the Holiday season was a busy time for me. I’m starting to get back into my routine and catching up with some of my commissions so, hopefully, the updates will be a little more frequent from now on. This particular piece started [...]

Sketchbook Update – It’s been too long…

Because of scanner woes (and just regular ol’ woes as well) it has been literally half a year since I posted scans from my sketchbook. That’s much longer than I would’ve liked but, to be honest, there hasn’t been much activity in the sketchbook front anyway. I aim to change that and this post is [...]
