Clownin' Around.

Designs/character exploration for a comic/short project I'm attempting to develop.

Random Doodles

Here are a bunch of gestures I did this week while traveling the subway, and sitting in coffee shops. Been trying to work on some stuff I've been learning from the Stanchfield books. Still a long way to go, but hopefully these are going in the right direction.

It was this couple's 6 month anniversary - Marcia and Charles.

This was my good friend Matt's band "Silverlane". You should really check them out by clicking here.

Some gesture studies of the band

Some cool stuff I've found on the interwebs this week: Multicolr Search Lab lets you search Flickr by color. The new Gobelins films are out, too. Check out my friend Ugo's "Jelly Sunday"
Also, I recently started re-watching HBO's underrated series "Carnivale" - if you have some spare time and are wondering what to watch, definitely check it out. It got cancelled after two seasons, but worth it. Lastly, Jenny over at Blackwing Diaries has made a great post about Up, and animated films in general. Definitely worth a read.

New post coming soon!

Unforgiven + Doodles.

"'spose you wouldn't mind lookin' in on m' youngsters while I'm gone..."

"Hey KID! It's ME! Will Munny!"

"No...But I ain't armed..."

I just watched Unforgiven the other day, for the first time, and taking a cue from Leo, decided to do a couple of quick shots that I thought were great. Clint Eastwood as William Munny, Morgan Freeman as Ned and Gene Hackman as Lil' Bill star in an absolutely astounding film. A great story, structured amazingly, brilliant shots, and amazing, engaging characters all directed by Clint Eastwood that made me realize why he's given free reign on anything he wants. He's really, really earned it.

And now, some doodles and observational sketches:











Also, I think I forgot to post this! The Princess and the Frog trailer is out! Go watch it!!
