Steve Wang

A link worthy of a post all its own:

Steve Wang's myspace blog singlehandedly redeems myspace for everything it is. I think I've linked everybody to this in the past, but it's worth looking at again if only for Predator and the Tooth Fairy and the Blizzcon sculpture. Some -cool- stuff here, especially from the middle of the page down. <3

He was 21 when he designed, created, and built Predator. Time to go kill ourselves.

Random links

Plain old anatomy

Another artblog, looks pretty rad

Something I was linked to a while back, I love the style <3

Cil and I saw this woman at SDCC last year. It was cool. Er, I'm assuming it's a woman

I was looking for pdfs of Bridgeman's books cuz I'm too lazy to go up to work on a Saturday and use the copy on my desk. :(

Sahin Ersoz


http://www.ersoz.com/storyboard/storyboard_main.htm

This guy not only draws fantastically, but knows how to act and use cinematography.
Seriously, just watching his sequence of hellboy storyboards is practically as good as watching the final version.

retarded tiger









Really cool looking from a character design standpoint, while also a bit of a downer.

LET'S SEE HOW YOU HANDLE IT


The conversation that led up to this speaks for itself. XD

More stuffs



Another Eatpoo activity. This time I had to make something up about weasels, the moon, and corsets.

Do you want to hate yourself and then get a burning vigor to become better with a mixed reaction of revenge and spite? Then check out Charlie Wen's concept art for God of War 2.

Also check out the DAVE GUERTIN AND GREG BALDWIN INTERVIEW at the Character Design blog. Dave is some sort of awesome shape mastermind.

Since we haven't had any bad sketches yet..




Here's some random stuff from the last week. One page was mostly from reference, one wasn't. It's pretty easy to tell which is which. XD

My favorite is the tiny Mike with fierce hair.

Snail sex in 3D

It's cool, just download it (in the next seven days.)

458nm

This is about as close as I can find to an official site.

PEER PRESSURE

FIRST POST (actually no, second post) THAT INVOLVES ARTS (auds and mike made me do it)

Also, I love capslock. <3 I'm also nice enough to post some relatively recent stuff rather than like, ancient stuff... XD I haven't coloured anything in ages though, but I need the practice. Anyway, here's some black and white instead...!

Something pretty~

So a coworker just linked me to a trailer for the Golden Compass, and it looks neat and different. The cityscapes (and design in general) are beautiful. <3

Has anybody ever read the books this is based on? I've never heard of it, but I'm a fan of zeppelins and prophecies and alternate universes. Here's a link to the big high res trailer that'll be good for about a week.

For anybody who doesn't want to download fifty megs, there's a small trailer on the official site.

Zbrush 3

Zbrush 3 demo

So it's like a whole fucking hour long - but it's still really awesome, and a cool sculpture demo even without knowing the software. Looks like Zbrush made some massive improvements to the 3d parts of their program (but I haven't read the spec list)

Twinkle Twinkle Little




All right, these aren't sketches and they aren't recent, but please enjoy. This was from the existing character in an existing style assignment in character design.

POP EXPERIMENT
- I'm sure y'all have seen this site before, but I have gained so much inspiration from it that I feel it is a good source of new art to post.

Dead babies in clown suits

http://ww3.osf.co.uk - looks like a great library for animation reference, since most of the previews don't have watermarks and are full length. National Geographic type stuff, anyhow

www.sandara.net - a pretty cool gallery

Essentials of Anatomy - a giant collection of human anatomy reference. I'm pretty sure it was Mike who linked me to this originally, but might as well preserve it here for posterity..

Neeerrrdd! In greyscale!

I totally am a nerd. XD A quick photoshop scribble from a couple weeks ago til I have something new to post.



OC practice doodling. (The heart is courtesy of Cibo <3) Started out as a copy of something in my reference folder.
