Albert and Fritz

Hey ho, new character time!

Well, maybe not new-new, as I've had sketches for these two for a while.

Anywho, meet Albert the Alligator and Fritzy the Frilled Neck Lizard, two Disney-esque/inspired characters I actually came up with when visiting Disney World down in Florida.

Albert was originally conceived a few years ago, when my mother and I went down to Disney World to visit my sister. She was working down there through the Disney College Intern Program and we had gone down to visit during my Spring Break. While riding one of the Disney buses to our restort, I decided to doodle, and because it was Florida, I was thinking alligators and because it was Disney, I was thinking Disney characters, so I drew my first version of Albert.

 

I ended up giving to the bus driver as a thank you, cause I wanted to make his day a little : P

Fast forward to a more recent visit and I decided to draw Albert again, and once again, that sketch was given to the bus driver of one of the buses. It was also this trip I came up with Fritz, as I felt Albert needed a friend.

I don't remember my reasonings for making him a frilled neck lizard - I think it was maybe because I thought it fit. Albert made me also think of Australia and that made me think of frilled neck lizards... Maybe it's a reference to the one frilled neck lizard character from The Rescuers Down Under.

But anyway, yeah! So, that's how they came to be and I just recently got around to sitting down and finalizing them up some.

TF2Newbs.com Intros

Here are some intros I did up for TF2Newbs.com, an online community for the multiplayer FPS, Team Fortress 2. These intros are for their event videos that they post from time to time and for fun, I did up two versions.

Regular Version:

Pyrovision Version (this version mimics a texture style found in the game when using certain items):

Mannequins

A while ago, a teacher had mentioned working on a project where he needed to design a mannequin based off a cute girl. So the top sketch is my take on it, while the second sketch is just me playing around and the third is again, just messing around, though later.

I find these kinda fun to draw, cause it's really just a way for me to play with outfits, so yaaaay haha.

DIA Sketches - Dec 6, 2013

Went to the DIA today with my sister and her friend, so wandered about and did some sketches. The last few times I've gone, I've been sketching things like vases and pots, like I did here, though occasionally I'll go find a small detail on something and draw that (I drew a lock one time which was pretty neat). But yeahhhh Just some teapots and some vases and then some quick sketches of some lady sculptures.

King Candy Lip Sync Animation Final(ish)

Didn't feel much like sleeping tonight, so I pulled this old file out. This is more or less the final version for it for now, as I don't feel like tackling the second half of the clip my friend recorded. It's all just manical laughing anyway and though I have all the mouth shapes roughed out for that second half, I just don't have the time or energy to really do it right now.

Either way, here's a good portion - and the main line of the clip anyway - final lined with colour for you all. Enjoy : )

24 Hour Comic Day Comics

Well, despite my hard work, I didn't end up finishing my comic. I tried to get them all final lined and coloured, but it wasn't going to work, so I had switched to at least doing the sketches which... also didn't pan out too well, because of some technical difficulties.

Irregardless, comics : )

24 Hour Comic Day Sketches

I decided to take part in the activities of 24 Hour Comic Day yesterday. I didn't know I could've used already established characters and stuff instead of making up a whole new cast and setting, but I did anyway. Here are the character designs, an environment doodle, and thumbnail sketches for the comic I worked on.
