Princess Peach: Actual colours


This is my same drawing but i changed the colours to the actual princess peach colours. i just eye dropper-ed an actual peach image and make the colours hte same. but i think mine still looks awesome

Princess Peach


This is by FAR my favourite thing i have done in illustrator! i love princess peach! i drew this picture and then made it in illustrator, so yes this is all my own design! LOVE

Toy model






Binky, the Mono- Embersaurus
toy made of sculpey
wire armature and tin foil base
not baked yet

BINKY: the mono-embersaurus


This is the actual final drawing of BINKY the Mono- Embersaurus. (mono cause he has one horn, and ember cuase of the fire breathing, and saurus cause he's basically a dinosaur)...duh. I think he is a lot cuter and looks so innocent and adorable but really deadly and capable of escaping his predator.







this was the origonal sketch for BINKY but i thought it was to robo crazy. In this story he is the prey and my partner (Stan Gold) is creating the predator, so i htought it would make more sense to make him more simple and cuter, make hom look more vulnerable...looking. There are also some brainstorm ideas and a small logo that can be used as a product logo either with or without the actual name in it. It can also be turned into a flash animation in the future.

Skateboard Process #5 Finished!



The finished project! When working on this obviosuly i didn not have it just finish like this. I just traced everything and then after everything was done then i colour corrected and changed the colors to ones that would work better together. I added drop shadows for depht and more detailing, and I added my name, the texture that was mandatory, and all the little details that just made it better and not as flat. i really like it!

It may not seem like a lot fo steps but I actually finished this in about 3 days, that might seem rushed but i would just work forever on this, all night, illustrator is addictive and i relaly love the way it turned out. i probably worked over 14 hours on this.

I have a skateboard to put it on but i think I am going to buy a plank one that does not have any hole for trucks screwed into it. Mainly becuase I want to hang it on my wall, so I want it as an art piece and so it has to look good!

It might have seemed dumb to use the dirst idea i had, but honestly it was too perfect. The first idea was the best one i ever could have come up with so i didn't care. i loved it, and come on, this design is epic!

Skateboard Process


this is the first picture I drew for my skateboard. I drew a crappy sketch in a boring class one say, and just said "this is it" so this was the better more detailed sketch and just got to work on Illustrator
