Unrealised Sculptures



Maybe it should say "failed" instead of "unrealised" up there, since that's definitely what this one is at this point!  I did make an attempt at a sculpt of this guy about a year ago, and I have to say it was a mega-fail.  Artistically I guess it was coming along, but I foolishly glopped a ton of sculpey onto him without thinking about his rather tenuous armature.  The result was him flopping over and being unsalvagable.  I dug this up the other day and I think I may try to make another go at it (with a bit more thought beforehand) because I really do like this drawing... I guess we'll see!

Unicorns need more attention

I was rewatching The Last Unicorn the other day.  I can't tell you how much I loved that movie as a child, and it still holds up pretty well!  Quite stylish, for reals.  And it put me in mind to draw a unicorn.  Not enough people are doing that these days, I think.





I played with My Little Ponies too :P

Green Dragon

Oh, what creativity I display in naming my posts...
Sorry there's been no post in a while, guys.  I humbly offer up this little fellow as an apology.


I do have an excuse, however -- lately I've been in the process of moving over to California, soon to start work as a concept artist at nowhere else but Blizzard Entertainment!  Hopefully when I'm settled I'll be able to be a bit more regular with the updates again.

Prehistoric Elephant - Platybelodon

Second in my weirdo elephantidae series after Deinotherium, Platybelodon!  Possibly the weirdest one.  I love their heads.  They're called "shovel tuskers" for a reason.



Something I learned: Google image search any prehistoric elephant and there's a decent chance you'll get a picture of one standing next to a girl in a bikini.  The more you know...

Bateleur Eagle

So I've got a bit of a thing for birds also.  This is a bateleur eagle -- kind of a weird red-faced eagle from Africa.

Mouse!

Just doing a bit of a sketch here for fun.  I decided mice are adorable .. except when they're in my house, not in a cage.  Nothing wrong with this little guy though.  He's staying in the computer.

Dragon Head - Texture WIP

Over the past few weeks I decided to do a low poly and texture for that zbrush sketch I did recently.  Not finished, but I had some fun hacking into it.  I've a plan to do different colour variations -- I'm thinking bronze and orange would be badass too.
