UPDATE!!!




So, here we are yet again. Just a couple of weeks into school and already the homework and stress is kicking in. That's the cruel beauty of being in animation... Yes your doing what you love, but godam it wears you out fast. My point is. Although I do sketch my butt off year round, I'm never sure how often I'll post up on the ol' blog, and what with school factoring in now.....I'll probably have less time for personal work ( not NO time, just LESS ) Therefore, less chances of posting. Either way I'll aim for at least twice a month.

I decided to update my Carbonmade Portfolio. It was kinda dated and I did alot of random drawing over the summer which I didn't get to stick up on the blog ( although some of the stuff on the blog I did stick on carbonmade ) Either way theres a whole bunch of new junk there...

Check it

P.S I know theres a Sheridan Animation Blog up now. Im up there I believe. If you go to Sheridan say Hi to me in the hallways, or introduce yourself. Im always up for meeting new people ( particularly since we got put in the same classes as last year...not complaining though! Class B rules!!!! );P

BATMANNNNN

I just figured this should have its own post. Of all the comicbook heroes Batman is my fav. IN fact for those of you that know me, I carry a fairly big scar on my chin from when I was four years old and enjoyed imitating batman. I jumped from the stairs to a couch in my living room until one day I fell halfway and split my chin open on a flowerpot. Stare at my chin sometime, you'll see it.
I kinda for no reason at all just drew up Batman and some villains during the summer. I guess I was interested in how I would envision them design-wise. I grew up with the old school animated batman and was kinda disapointed after seeing the new age Batman kids are seeing on TV these days. I miss the gritty, hard edged, take no bull**** batman of my youth.

Here's to the good old days







( On a sidenote, The villains are penguin, joker and killer croc. Joker was inspired from the Christopher Nolan design for Heath Ledger whos going to play Joker in the next Batman movie. Scars are so much cooler than a frozen smile. And Clayfaces head is pretty much the same as the oldschool batman cartoon, I just did that because I love the tormented face....didn't even have to use a reference )

Goodbye Summer

Well, summers officially over and I pretty much wasted all of it away doing nothing. I was in Novascotia for the last two months mucking about just relaxing and being bored off my butt. I can honestly say I am super glad to be starting classes and seeing all my buds back at school again.

I of course will probably by week two realize that this year will be yet again a fun filled, sleep deprived, hand numbingly filled one but I'll just stay in denial for now.

Here are some Beach sketches ( super fast 5 -10 seconds WHILE walking in sand ) and some old Dr Sketchy session sketches.
The last one is a WIP.







I have done a ridiculous amount of sketching and drawing over the summer. The good ones Ill stick up on my carbonmade. So check a week from now at the latest. Cheers!
