Stargazer

He could hear their distant shrills; their moans and groans, of a city that creaks on rusted hinges. He knew of the carnage below in his city. The long shadows covering what shouldn't be seen. Its streets bathed in the crimson cries of the innocents.



But oh, how the stars shine. No memory of follies past, no reflections of evil beneath. Healed are those deep cuts; muffled are those screams of those you couldn't save. You are beyond the city that imprisoned you. You are free; you are Stargazer.

Not a pumpkin for Halloween...Anymore!

Oh boy it's halloween...A time when leaves of red and gold litter the pavement. A time when the bright autumn moon is only eclipsed by the warm glow of front doors abound. And yes, Halloween, a time when it's OK for young children to gayly dance and prance through the streets, accepting sugar highs from every stranger they so damn meets. Ohhhh, Whodini, how right you were...The freaks really do come out at night.

Aaand on the note, some of you may like to know that after 4 months of not-so-strict dieting I've lost a whopping 40 lbs! That's right, I'm down to 250 (for the third time in my life) and have 10 lbs. to lose left to reach my goal of 240 lbs. Whoo-hooo! For those of you who hadn't seen me for a while, my appearance is as follows:

The lost weight has rendered me blind!


And hopefully another 10 lbs. and I'd look like this.

S&W Heartbreaker

I'm calling it the Smith & Wessen "Heartbreaker". S&W, please don't sue.

So here's the blocked out revolver (w/o scope):

NRA 4EVER!!!!

I kinda liked the idea of that revolver in the previous post so I figured it'd be cool to try and model it in Maya. Finding out that a lot of things are coming out a little different in 3D (probably thanks to that horrid front view). I got the gun blocked in so far, minus the scope. Another post coming soon!

I draw; who knew?

Here are some rough sketches. Not necessarily the best, but ones that at least have been taken past the point of incomprehensible crapage.

Yeaglesque (well, not really)

Well here's an attempt at some color (aside from the obvious attempt to destroy a classic style). I also fixed her hands, though I still don't think the right hand is posed as good as it can be.

Sorry Mr. Yeagle

Ole! 2 (Mexico Pics!!!)

Finally got the pics from my brother. The hotel we were staying at is a couple minutes south of Rosarito, Mexico. Very nice area; I recommend it.

This is the view from our hotel room. Absolutely gorgeous as you can see. They have many weddings here as seen on the bottom left.

Me and my brothers; to the right, my younger brother Ido and on the far right, my older brother Danny. It was Danny's 30th b-day hence the main reason for the trip.

Me looking fabulous as usual.

This is a staircase leading down to the surf. When we first got there the surf got up to about 10ft in size. Notice all the people surfing aren't anywhere near the farthest wave out...There's good reason for that as we soon found out.

Lunch at the hotel restaurant.

Lunch didn't quite do it for me soooo...

Save me Jebus!

All in all a nice way to finish the trip before you have to scamper across the border avoiding the night (and a stab wound to the back, Ole!)

Girlies!!!..again!

Felt like drawing some more girlies recently, checkin' out every retro-styled girlie site on the web. Trying to loosen up the style on my girls and allow for more flow and line economy.

So after checking out some of Dean Yeagle's work (interlaced with frequent sobbing and disgust with my own work), I decided to try a few Yeaglesque girls. Here's one which by no means comes close (reference would of helped). The hands, especially the left one, still bother me so I may go back and redo them:



This is another attempt to loosen up my girls (without resorting to the usual double Martini laced with roofies). I especially like the simplicity of her legs which is quite unusual for me. The color turned out pretty well too. And thanks to Yeagle for inspiring the "Torpedo" retro-breasts.

Brilliant, blinding color

Quickie

I wanted to take that wacked-out guy a little further. Drew the layout all within Photoshop using my new Intuos 4! The sensitivity is insane!!!

On The Run

Ole!

Well, came back back from Mexico and I realized one thing: I had no head to have had decapitated in the first place. Long story short, I got torn apart by large surf, ate great Mexican food and just had an overall great, murder-less time south of the border. I'll get the pics posted as soon as I can get them from my brother.

Here's my second pass on the girl below w/color:


...and here's another color of a sketch in the previous post:
