Jacket

Trying to make time to draw a little. Having problems with this face.

Detective

Sketching in the little spare time I have to clear my head. But it only gives me more headaches. Need to get better...

Ebony Wolf

My Skyrim Wood Elf character in Ebony Mail. He became a vampire during the DLC.

Delirium

"The moment she realized what was happening, that the universe was changing, that she was growing older... She was no longer Delight; and the blossoms had already begun to fall in her domain, becoming smudged and formless colors... Then she went to see him. And he said "Del, it's okay." He just held her until she gained control once more. They watched the sunset for a bit. Then he said "Del. Things are changing." She knew it was true. And there was nothing she could do about it." -Neil Gaiman

Death

Dream's favorite sister. " From the darkness I hear the beating of mighty wings.."

Dream

Of all the titles I collected in the 80's, Neil Gaiman's Sandman was my all time favorite. It spoke to my angst ridden, confused, teenage soul. His beautiful, horrifying, and romantic stories inspired, challenged, and comforted me. These stories really left it's impression upon me.

Space Pilot

Space Pilot girl. Trying to draw more in my spare time.

Daredevil

Really enjoying this Netflix series! Thanks to my buddy Jojo Aguilar for the second pair of eyes and help with the photoshop-ing. I am slow to learn ...

Edit: The sky looked plain so added impressionistic "sonar" rings and some blur.

Razor and Aya

An old picture that I started when we finished up on the Green Lantern: The Animated Series. It's been sitting on my computer unfinished for a few years. I intended to do a background and some effects but once again I got lazy. One of these years I am going to finish up stuff up while it's still fresh instead of leaving it for years and losing interest.

Elric of Melnibone

I've been working on this off and on in my spare time and think I am done with it. It seems like completion is wholey dependent on when I get tired of looking at it nowadays. Elric of Melnibone was a character that struck a huge chord with me when I was an adolescent. Tortured, tragic, anti-hero. Forging destiny? Or slave to fate. Great stuff for an overly emotional and sentimental emo kid! Happy New Year!

PS2 Resident Concepts

More concept art for that old PS2 game that got shelved. Concepts of the background people that inhabit the game. The world was 40s inspired but I looked at anything vintage. JC Leyendecker was definitely an inspiration (even though it probably doesn't look like it).

These were concepts for the workers around the city. It gave me an opportunity to incorporate some military elements, spats, jodhpurs, and leather which are always fun to design.

PS2 Girl Concepts

Concepts of a few character variations for Sony Playstation 2. Some goth inspired girls and a motorcycle girl.

PS2 Tech Girl Turn

An old character concept turn I did back when I was working at Sony Playstation (PS2).

Legolas vs Azog

My girlfriend's son, Tomi, wanted me to draw him a picture of Legolas. I was hoping to do something simple but the the more I put it off the more I got art directed. A picture of Legolas became Legolas in an action pose shooting arrows into an orc. I decided to put in Azog (who Legolas never fights) and have Legolas wearing Narsil (which isn't his sword). I drew Azog pretty loose since this was taking me forever thinking I would be done with it. Tomi loved it! But ... he had more notes :( "Could you tighten up Azog and add some arrows sticking out of him? Pleeeeesseee!" ... And here it is. Art: me, Art Direction: Tomi Lin.

Old PSM Lineart

Old illustrations for Playstation Magazine back in the late 90's.

Grey Fox from Metal Gear Solid and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7. I think this was for best "bad guys" in video games of that year. It's been touched up a little from the original since the internet was new back then and I didn't have much reference for Grey Fox. I don't even think he had a name back when the first MGS game came out. He was just referred to as the "Ninja"

Solid Snake and Grey Fox (Ninja) from Metal Gear Solid.














Leon Scott Kennedy (thanks Wikipedia!) from Resident Evil
II facing off with an Umbrella agent.

Old Exalted RPG Stuff

Sometime in the early 2000's I did some illustrations for Whilte Wolf Publishing's RPG, Exalted: The Dragon-Blooded and Caste Book: Twilight.

Interior. Scene of Horakinis spying on some Dragon-Blooded dudes.

Illustration for the spell "Stoneskin"

Interior art. Horakinis taking a stand against ... Werewolves? ... Cat people? I can't remember. I modified some of  their sizes since they were off by quite a bit. I scaled and shrunk to make it look less bad.

Lineup of the characters I designed off of descriptions.

Batgirl and Robin

Originally this was a study for a piece I was going to do for a friend. Ultimately it didn't happen but I still kind of liked the rough so decided to clean it up and put some tones on it. These were based off of the Young Justice design done by Phil Buorassa and slaughtered by my own incapability of drawing any other way.

Girl Concepts

Old concept work I did back in the late 90s for an online clothing store that is no longer existing. The concept, if I remember correctly, was they wanted a mascot avatar that would interact with it's customers as they navigated through the website.

They wanted a cute hip girl and sadly I know absolutely nothing about hipster fashion.

Alien vs Predator

AVP. An old Aliens vs Predator drawing I did back in the late 90s.  I can't for the life of me remember the comic book series where the Aliens had the numbers painted on their heads. I think it had scientists on a floating space lab. The Alien 4 movie took elements from that book.

Old Predator study.

Old Sketches

Bubble girl

Robot Concept

Spiderman sketch I did while on my trip to NY (2002)

Old Superhero Stuff

More old sketches from the old website.

Iron Man

Roxy And Caitlin

Pin up for E.J. Su's Stone Monkey comic. Mid 2000s

Old Elf Stuff

I've decided to shut down itchstudios.com since I never update it anyways. With sites like Blogger and DeviantArt, it makes posting art faster, easier, and all around less of a hassle for me. I'll be posting up some of the old stuff that I still kind of like just for posterity.

"Arms"

Elf Warrior

Elf Warrior "Undaunted"

Winged Girl

Faerie

Black Widow

I'm not sure what my fascination with Black Widow is but in thinking of something to draw for the blog, this came out. There are perspective problems with the gun and magazines ... probably with the figure too while I'm at it. One of these days I will put some more thought into what I'm going to do before I draw it.

 *Edit: I changed her right foot. It was kind of reading as a stump so I went for a safer angle. And added her bracelet to make her more Black Widow-y.

Iron Man

I didn't have any real design idea when I started this. I was just having fun pushing shapes around. Well it started out fun then got frustrating when I realized it was all over the place. It's wildly inconsistent but it's done as far as I'm concerned.
