Some character design work and Gouache stuff

Here is a part of an assignment where I had to create 80 thumbnails around a narrative. My narrative follows the story about a giant monster who wants to be a super hero. I went a little overboard though and I created character sketches instead of thumbnails.


Here is an assignment where I went on a random situation generator and I had to illustrate a character from it. Mine dealt with gelatinous robots, nazi's and monoliths so I created this weird giant amoeba meets transformer thing that's supposed to be a nazi secret weapon.
Lastly, here is a portion of my Gouache class final. I created a series of monsters to loosen up and practice technique, each took me around 30-40 minutes to create.

It's all Mime

This is my final for my Intro to 2d animation class. This was entirely hand drawn and put together in flash. From concept to completion it was a total of 5 weeks. Due to flash being finicky and because of all the video converting, a lot of the line quality is lost so any advice to fix that would be great.

Sketch book!

Heres some stuff from my character design sketch book. First up are some character thumbnails for my final, I'll post the final pieces later as well as more thumbnails.

Next up are some characters I've done in class of students and strangers

Also, I would try to attend open model sessions each week and here are the results.

Meme Cards

For my illustration 2 final, we had to create a deck of playing cards centered around a theme. My idea was to create meme cards with medieval sensibilities to connect it with the cards already existing theme and to create the ultimate in dorky cards. This was done with pen nibs, to give it a wood cut like look, and photoshop colors to still match the aesthetic of the internetz.

Character Design and Zodiac illustrations

Here is a fun assignment from my character design class where we had to created characters around a narrative. I took the Todzilla comic strips from before and elaborated the ideas into a cartoon pitch.

Toddilla is a giant monster who wants to be a real superhero just like his hero Chicken man. He disguises himself as Turbo Tyrannaman and tries to impress the fellow giant monsters of "Monstropolis" and his school. Unfortunately, the other monsters have little respect for him so he is mainly ridiculed by others and does not have many friends, one of which is an anxious moth name Mojh who cant find time to sleep during the day (becuase of giant monster school) or night since he is nocturnal. Wolfboy is Chickenman's side kick and secret arch nemesis who feels as if he is in the shadow of a clown. He hopes to rid of chickenman and become a more serious and conservative hero

Here is the assignment I enjoyed most from any of my illustration classes thus far! I had to illustrate the Zodiac for a gaming magazine so I thought of a group of characters that could easily be seen in a 90's beat up game with powers and personalities based of the zodiac. Here are 5 spot illustrations

and here is a half page spread based off my astrological sign.
