ZORN!

Man I haven't drawn this guy in ages. We go back years. Like, 2001 ish. He's from a game that I was helping develop way back then. Every time I draw him he changes a bit. This time his mask has come out somewhat General Kael-ish. Which was a jumping off point for the design so I guess that's fair.

Ogre Wants Magic Fish

I wanted to draw an ogre and a guy with a katana. So that happened. And I was going to give him a lantern but I thought it was more interesting for it to be a bowl and for the light from that bowl to be cast by magic fish that the warrior has collected for the ogre. I realize this is not a thing you can see clearly in the illustration. Which is why I'm saying. Anyways...



Also I've been LOVING working with pen lately. I'm hitting a groove I haven't in years where drawings are just... working better I suppose. I think it's because I'm letting go of the drawings more freely and not imposing something external on them. Like trying to draw in a certain style or feeling compelled to make the linework a certain way.

Also included is an image from an eerie dream I had where I had rented a room in an enormous mansion where every room was the entire length of the house and there were 3 floors of them. It was profoundly unnerving.

The Slaughtered Calf

It's hot and sunny here in old Vancouver! So my mind's been drifting to Western themes.

Coloured stuff and animation!

Some coloured ink stuff in which I try a new technique. Also some animation I did while waiting for laundry to dry. An exciting week if you're into that kind of thing.
