Look. Look at me.

Well, not me. Look at my fancy new website! Most of the labor was donated by the very knowledgeable Bryan McNeil, who did a great job putting the site together, and putting up with the crap I nagged him with. The site isn't done, but it's functioning. Tweaking over the next while should finalize it.




The site is mainly intended for my portfolio, so lots of stuff will still be filtering through the blog. However, if anyone feels like taking a look, you should.

Judo Panda, Throw!

So, Kim, Karen, and Yien decided to expose me to this insane movie last night. It was starring the members of some Korean boy band in EVERY main role. (There was like 13 of these guys!)

One of them had to play a panda, in this really unconvincing panda suit. I thought he was supposed to be dressed as a mascot for the school Judo team, but apparently, as far as the movie was concerned, he was a real panda.


Which got me thinking. Wouldn't it be awesome if the panda knew judo?
So I started sketching and ended up with this. I'm iffy on the bamboo, but I had a bamboo brush set that I decided to try. I think I'll paint my own and put it in another time.

So, I tried matte painting



It could be much better, but I'm happy for it being a first shot.

BATMAN 2.0

So, with Bruce Wayne apparently dead (for now), project rooftop decided to run the Batman 2.0 contest. I have decided to participate.

Costume design for an icon? Yes please.



to quote Rosemary; "he's so dark and brooding" "HUNKY"

The coveted dark, brooding, hunky factor. Score!

Oh, I should mention, this is what Batman would look like if Dick Grayson took over for him.
So, I leaned the costume more toward acrobatics than intimidation, and put in a slightly altered color scheme and emblem!
