IF: Pattern


I sketched this character awhile back. I was looking for a chance to use him somewhere and with the Illustration Friday word "Pattern" he just seemed to fit. A simpler design but I liked the concept.

Infinite



Here is my stab at the Illustration Friday's topic "Infinite". Since it is now officially fall and Halloween is right around the corner I thought a spooky type illo would be good to try. Hope you like it!

Welcome...sort of...


This is the third week I have started the Illustration Friday topic but not had a chance to finish it. I figured I would at least post the sketch that I came up with and may finish it at another time. I wanted the piece to have a Muppets / Fosters feel to it.

Ezra


Looking at pictures of Ezra Pound I was inspired to capture his likeness. Since he is credited as being a very important poet in the modernist movement, I wanted to include a "book" element in the piece. The three pages in the book reference the three very different times in his life.

Mr. Hyde




I mentioned before I am studying to create better character designs. I am working closely with Stephen Silver and have learned quite a bit. Here is a design I did from the "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" novel. In this exercise I created a turn around, attitudes, and expressions of Mr. Hyde. Hope you guys like 'em!
