April O'Niel

A woman after my own heart. Not going to lie, I had a huge crush on this gal has a child. She hung out with my favorite dudes, Always bringing pizza to the party, and do I even need to mention the jumpsuit!? Total babe.

SHARK WEEK!

Kneaded Eraser Ninja Turtle

In between deciding what to doodle and eating pizza there is a magical dead zone of creativity. In that time I normally play with my kneaded eraser and sculpt it into various things. I have made hundreds of these kneaded eraser sculptures I just so happened to document this one. With a new TMNT film coming out soon this beloved childhood favorite has been on my mind a lot recently.

Hear me out.

Even though the original comic of TMNT is satire of what was going on in comics during the early 80's. Even though the original cartoon was just a vehicle to sell merchandise and toys. Even though almost all of the different reiterations of TMNT have ranged from bodacious to disaster *cough* Coming Out of their Shell tour, TMNT: The Next Mutation, and Turtles Christmas special *cough* I have stuck by it.

Will this new film be the end of the franchise? Will it be the worst TMNT project to grace the big screen. The answer to these questions is no. No matter how nostalgic you get for TMNT remember one thing. It was all a joke so just try to enjoy any and all TMNT for what it is worth. We will always have the original 1990 film and most recently the 2012 animated series which is fantastic.

The Misadventures of Tron Bonne

After nearly 15 years I finally got my hands on a copy of The Misadventures of Tron Bonne for the Playstation! Only halfway through it but it is amazing. I will start by saying I am in the camp that absolutely adores The Mega Man Legends games and was heart broken when the third installment was cancelled. It was the game that motivated me to buy a 3DS in the first place but shit happens. There is a spiritual successor to Mega Man in the form of Mighty No. 9 dropping next year so not all is lost. Been doodling a lot of Tron recently, I choose to draw her if she we're a little older, and a little curvier.  

The Tron on Top is pencils scanned in with some digital color and the bottom right was done using a pen without any pencils or layout. Just went for it and think it turned out well. 

Space Turnip

I have a new sketch book. Already filling up fast with stupid shit like this. Decided to get something for loose and casual sketches with pens. This doodle came from Ruth and I overhearing these two gentlemen, who, were like extras from American Psycho or that 80's business guy from Futurama. Any way, they mentioned going to a place called "The Space Turnip" to which his bro friend replies, "Is that a gay bar?" Now I must find this place, out of curiosity.

Pyramid Head Nurse

A commission I recently finished. When I was asked to do this I didn't even hesitate since I love the Silent Hill game series. There was much deliberation but this was the final product and I am really pleased with it. I personally prefer the SH2 version of Pyramid head with the butcher's apron and rubber boots but my client liked the movie version better so I went with that.

Here is a version with out the line art which looks neato.

Lastly are some thumbnails and rough drafts of where the project started. I worked on these while staying with my mother in the hospital.

Hey Ho, I Don't Wanna Not Wanna Go!
