More Background Comps

Here are a few more environment compositions that I made. I actually made the forest comp back in October and forgot I made the picture until I stumbled upon it today while looking through my art folder. The other piece is an image of some islands I was inspired to draw by a Suiseki I saw in a Bonsai book. There'll be some more interesting stuff up soon hopefully.

Flapjack

Flapjack's quickly become one of my favorite cartoons. What's not to love? It has insanely great character design by C Raggio and Devin Roth, and amazing art direction in general. Love all the visual gags too, I can't get enough funny faces.

Fallen Tree comp

Here's a thumbnail-sized composition for an illustration I may make a finished version of. If it's unclear, it's three (or 3 and a half?) people crossing a creek on a fallen tree under cloak of night. Sorry it's so small, that's just what it is.

Susan and Mudjo

I drew this as a gift for Susan; it's her and our cat Mudjo. This turned out better than I expected, so I'll probably continue to be a creep and draw little girls and kitties. D: I drew it in Illustrator and did the color in Photoshop. Here's the real Mudjo in a bowtie, inspired by the drawing.

Stalking Tiger

Here's something I whipped up today, a tiger stalking through a snowy birch forest, whose anticipated meal has fled their firesite. I drew it in Flash and added textures and shading in Photoshop. I think I'm going to try to get back into drawing in Flash.

15-Minute Caricature

Here's a quick caricature of a guy I can't beat at darts, Justin McKinley. I want to do more of these.

Misty Waterways

Here's another environment for this week. It's sort of a swamplike place wherein the inhabitants live in trees on their own island, using patches of luminous mushrooms as beacons in the fog. I love drawing fat trees and glowing things (lately), so I'll probably develop this world a bit further.
