Truck stop characters Round2

Here are a few more main characters for my Truckstop short idea I'm directing.  Not sure if They will make it in but just in case we dont come up with anything better, you might see these guys in my next short "film".

Truck Stop Diners

Some character sketches for an idea I have.  I might incorporate these into the background of a short I’m directing.  I don’t know yet.  They’re obviously inspired by some characters from the movies Convoy, Smokey and the Bandit and Raising Arizona.

So, now that the first episode of Metalocalypse season 4 just aired, I wanted to share some screenshots of the show which featured my work as Prop Designer.  It was great fun working on the show and I really upped my game on this production, thanks to working for and with really amazingly talented artists, here at Titmouse Inc.

Nicky from SJ

I've been drawing a lot of inanimate objects lately for work and felt I was beginning to forget how to draw people. I made a little photoshop painting of a superjail character to jump back into the groove.

venture BGs pt2

The first BG assignment I had on Venture Brothers was taking this sketch design of the Sphinx training room, drawn by Chris Palesty and creating the following tonal for the background painter to use.



Using the vanishing point, I was instructed to use the line tool to draw all my lines and fill them with different values of gray using the paint bucket. I built the BG in layers in case Chris disapproved of anything. Ironically, the one thing he disapproved of was using many layers.



Finally, Chris added the guns on the gunrack.

White Wolf

When I was in SF in May, we were talking about storyboarding a music video for the White Wolf song Greg and Don produced. First it was suppose to be a live action thing starring yours truely, though that never got off the ground. We did a sketch session and these were my few drawings. Not quite what Greg was going for, though.
