Sketched this guy entirely during league of legends down-time. Blue pencil with H black lead over it on copier scrap paper. As a bonus you get to see me covered by 2 of my 3 cats while watching Larry King interview Jessie Ventura.

Warthog!!!
Recently through my Deviant art page, I was commissioned to do a mascot/logo for an new game site. They liked my Be-bop from TMNT, and wanted something similar but with a warthog in fantasy garb, instead of a boar in punk attire. I did the pencil sketch in blue and then cleaned it up with …
Human baby, robot world.
Recently, some friends asked me to create a space/robot themed scene to be a sort of framed poster version of a wall mural. A lot of creative freedom on this one, which is always awesome! Roughs done in pencil and bic pen on copier paper, cleaned up in Flash on my Cintiq.
Crazy Mix-em-ups

Mutation Madness ( a Preamble to San Diego Comic-Con 2012)
I leave for San Diego Comic-con tomorrow, I have very mixed feelings. On the one hand I LOVE Comic-con, and the last 2 years I went were awesomely fun. On the other hand, some friends that live in that area, who I was expecting to see will not be there this year. Add to that …

For lunch I walked across the street for some non-meat MacDonald’s food selections and had to sneak them back into …
