"Abode" Project

The final for a recent Illustration project. The idea is to do a sort of architectural vignette - so I went for the promise and reality of communism as my subject matter.
Here's one of the earlier roughs.

Alternate Past, Future, Present...

My friend Nemo Ramjet's been busy lately - drawing some very cool stuff. Here's a quick acrylic painting of one of his crazier (and more awesome) ideas - a giant, intelligent, australian flightless parrot. You can see that idea, and more, at his deviantart gallery.

I've been nominated in the category of "Outstanding Canadian Cartoonist" alongside the likes of Michel Rabagliatti, Bryan Lee O'Malley, and Seth! What a huge honor!

Damn!

Ingmar and Utgartha - Cover

The conclusion to my storybook project - easily my favourite project of the semester.
Here's the rough that immediately preceded the painting.

Logo Morph

Painting!

Here's some stuff from my friday painting/media exploration class...

Ingmar and Utgartha

For my figure illustration class, one of the large assignments this semester has been illustrating a children's story. For my story, I went for David and Goliath, except setting it in a kind of mythical Bronze-age Northern Europe. Here's what I've got so far:

Scene 1: Utgartha Challenges the Livonians


Scene 2: Ingmar refuses King Berig's Armor


Scene 3: Ingmar battles Utgartha


All in all, I've been having a lot of fun with this project. I'll be sad to see it go, honestly.
But next week - the cover!

Some more cool comic stuff

Here's a cover for a mini I'm going to have for the summer,


And some pencils and inks from within...

Montage/Book Cover

A finished piece (for school) that was for a montage project. It's a comic cover!
(If you've read much late-seventies Conan, you may recognize that FONT-OF-STONE that I used.)

Here's two of the later-stage roughs for it.
