True Grit

2011-06-07T19:16:00.002-04:00

Anyone who knows me, probably knows how much I like the idea of westerns, (notice I said Idea). Almost as much as I like horror and scifi genre...with that being said i finally got around to watching True Grit, and I must say I Loved it. Great character's and phenomenal dialogue, I only had one beef (more of a personal taste nitpic), not enough gunslinging....well anyway heres a sketch of Rooster Cogburn :)

A LONNNNG TIME AGO

2011-06-01T23:07:00.003-04:00

A lonnnng time ago Groundup was working on a fairytale anthology staring our beloved mascots Nu and Star. The story I decided to do at the time was Cinderella, and these concept sketches were 3 different styles I was thinking about at the time....

More throwaways

2011-05-24T16:02:00.003-04:00

designs for this project and none were used lol..

Old art

2011-05-19T16:19:00.002-04:00

Another Pummel Piece

2011-05-17T13:43:00.003-04:00

This one earned me my 1st of 2 losses, the opponent had everything thought out...he not only had a great piece of artwork but also great comedy behind it. I can't wait to fight him again

One of the earlier designs for upcoming K.Nicole project

2011-05-14T14:12:00.006-04:00

This was the 1st design I came up with for the upcoming novel written by Kristen Nicole.

It was interesting, but not quite what we were looking for....

Gettin back in the swing of things

2011-05-09T20:46:00.005-04:00

When art starts to become more of your bread and butter, than your passion you can easily see yourself becoming a pale version of what you use to be...so remember to draw sometimes just for yourself...cause you need to have fun to stay sharp in this industry

Satan's Influence

2011-05-06T11:02:00.002-04:00

Throw-away character design

2010-07-06T19:06:00.002-04:00

For Groundup's OH Snap!!! series there were a lot of characters who didn't make the cut heres one in particular. His name is Soul Glow, he basically found an ancient bottle of activator in an Egyptian tomb and as long as his jerry curl is well juiced it grants him vampire like abilities and just like vampires the sun is his worst enemy soooo when the curl dries so does his abilities
