Digital Portfolio:
 
A digitally coloured cover for a story that I'm working on for myself. Those are the two main characters, Cerge on the left hand side and Marley on the right. The title of the story is Baba O'Reilly (The song by the Who) for it's alternate name Teenage Wasteland. The subtitle is Rose Coloured Stain Glass Window because that's what inspired the lighting and background. It was done late November 2010

  

Some wardrobe work I was doing; I was sick and tired of my characters just wearing jeans and a t-shirt so I've started working on the finer points of .... clothing. Done around Dec 9th, 2010.

One of my other characters, also in Baba O'Reilly, Juliette. I'd been to a marker/colouring class and wanted to try the techniques on one of my own drawings so I doodled up Juliette and coloured her. I was also working on wardrobe and to a degree anatomy though it could still use some work... Dec 4th, 2010

 

The next two go together and were a picture I made for a friend, she wanted to dance with my characters so I drew it for her. Marley is on to the left, then her then Cerge. Still working on wardrobe and really paying attention to anatomy here. Even though Cerge's left foot looks nearly broken... They were dancing to La Grange by ZZ Top. Dec 12th
 

 

 

And then the last one is Marley when he's a bit older. I was really playing with anatomy here and seeing what I was capably of. It was inspired by Last Train Home by Lostprophets, because I can't help but totally rock out to it. Sept 13th, 2010.
