Game character idea.

Just trying to have some more fun. Whenever I get studying real hard to get better, I need to take a break and have some fun to remember what I am trying to get better for. This was a lot of fun. I was thinking the little girl could use the pipe like a mallet and wack enemies (hole side down) and when the pipe recoils the enemies would be on fire and run around causing damage to the other enemies on screen. Yes...I give away ideas freely, you know why? Because companies are too scared to do something cool like this. They would say, "We can't have a little girl with a pipe." And it would end there. I was thinking too, she could make a word in the book turn into whatever it is. If the word was "Bear" a bear would appear and maybe she could ride the bear around and eat the enemies...yuuuummmm. This is where the company would say, "We can't make a little girl ride a bear, that's dangerous." or "A bear would eat the little girl wouldn't it." Then they would proceed to make the most violent and realistic game anyone has ever seen. I would suggest to anyone who works in the industry and has a company that pays them to do less that they could, to make great art at home. Maybe down the road some executive's father can be an animator or concept guy, and he will know what is cool, and make something fun again. Anyways...I had fun with this and it was done at home on my own time and my own dime. This is what I enjoy!!! I hope you too will enjoy.



Have a great weekend!!!

A few for fun...and Carlos Meglia!!!

I've been studying a lot of anatomy stuff, so I thought I would take a break and have some fun.

Also, if you don't know who Carlos Meglia is, click his link in the sidebar. You can tell when someone really has fun drawing and the man must be having a blast when he puts the pencil to paper.













Enjoy!!

Drawing for Fun.

Went to the coffee shop this weekend. Tried a new one looking for a good atmosphere. It was alright but a bit tight on space. Had fun drawing though. Trying to take my time a little more and get my lines clean while keeping the feeling of the drawing loose. As far as the color, am just doing my best to pick colors that are not solid primaries and not colors that I see used a lot. Anyways, enjoy.
