Fly Windstorm

This is a character that I have had in my head for a while. This is Fly Windstorm, she has robotic hands and the power to shoot bolts of electricity from them. For this picture I have done a lot of experimenting with different effects like gradients, glows, the burn and dodge tool.

All Finished

I have finally finished my Lightning bird animation. About a hunter that goes to kill the legendary lightning bird  with surprising consequences. You can watch it here.

Many Backgrounds

Here are a few backgrounds that I have designed for my Lightning bird animation. Wanted to keep the spooky midnight feel there through out the animation.

Hunter and the Lightning Bird (Impundulu)

Here are the final designs for my Lightning Bird (Impundulu)  animation. The Hunter is going to try and catch the bird with surprising consequences. Here I have experimented with gradient as shading and I think it has worked out pretty well might do more of it. In the mean time if you want to have a look at the animatic for these characters then here it is https://vimeo.com/52530577 I am currently working on the riggs for both of these in Toon Boom.

Here is a picture of all the Garden Gang Characters I did. I have tried t give them different personalities and I hope this shows in the picture. I will soon be starting to get a storyboard to together as well.

More Garden Gang Pictures

Here are some more character from the Garden Gang project, My plan in the create a big picture that has all the characters on, there are 15 altogether so it will take me a while. They are all fro the Garden Gang series from Louis Kennedy.

Olivia Orange

Here are a few designs for  the garden gang project I am starting above is Brad Broccoli and Olivia Orange. I am also working on the other characters.

Photoshop ideas

Jessica

Meerkat

Nova the cat

Here are a few images I edited using photoshop. did it by creating layers the altering the threshold for each layer to create the shades, The more layers you have the more detailed the image is. Here are the originals.

More Impundulu designs

Here are some more designs for the Impundulu. The bottom one is with a background, still need to work on backgrounds as I did this one quite quickly. I like the Impundulu better that the other one.

Impundulu

his is a new character for a myths and legend project that I am doing. This is an Impundulu, a vampire type bird that lures women away and drinks there blood. Said to be a familiar for witches and Voodoo men. 

Can't decide if the tips if his wing should be yellow or just left grey. 

He still has a lot of development to go as I am still debating about the colours but I do like the general shape of the character.     

Fly redesigned

This is and updated version for a character I have wanted to draw for a while. She is cat/humanoid type creature with wings and uses a whip for a weapon.

I have taken a different approach to this drawing because I haven't used any lines and have just relied on shading. I will try and do more of this in the future.

Tap on!!

Im really happy with this animation of the gecko looking at the tap waiting for the lava to come out and is surprised when it does. This is my favourite shot at the moment.

Lez finally emerges

Here is the first scene for my Tiny planet I think it is a lot better than the fist one I did. Still might tweak it a bit but Im not sure. Im really happy with the yawning bit.

My Little gecko animated ^^

Here si a little test animation I did of my little gecko walking. I need to make a few tweaks on it for the final thing but it looks ok at the moment. Cant wait to put him onto my planet.

Geckos

For my tiny Planet I'm going to have another little animal on the planet to that will be near the lava bath and a lot of finny things will happen to him. So O decided to make him a gecko because my main characters is a lizard. So here are some different colour ideas for the Gecko. I put them on a piece of the background so I could see what would be the best colour for him compared to the background colour.

Lez's House

Some of the props for my tiny planet animation. Lez the lizard likes Very hot things so I have made him some super hot sauce and some Chile bubble bath. Also above is a close up picture of Lez's house and bath.

Test animations for Lez

Here is a little test animation I did now that Lez the lizard is all rigged

and here is Lez walking had to film it at 12 fps to get the slow tired effect

Lavary Planet Take 2

Here is a different version of my planet where I have changed the line colour, cant decide which one is better though

Lez the Lizard

This is Lez the Lizard, he likes relaxing in a nice hot lava bath, outside his house which is a Volcano, these are a few digital painted images i drew of him,

Lavery Planet background All Done

Finally Finished my Tinyplanet background now for the rest of it. Think this went very well though, lick the space background,

Happy group picture

Hello again, thought I would post this lovely picture of Faythe and all her friends. They all come from different backgrounds and they all represent an aspect of myself. febe is the little doll that Fai the cloud maiden is holding. I enjoy doing bigger picture like this rather than smaller ones.

Shady Shady

Thought I would do some practicing with shading cos most of my drawings look flat. Gonna do some more of this coz I really enjoyed this, Here is Trixi at the top and Veronic, Diamond and Jerrell under it. Wanna do some didgetal painting based on these pictures.

Faythe Finals

Here are some final designs for Faythe that I did a whie ago, I got rid of the glasses because they look more adult and I wanted her to look more childlike.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
