I can smell the fear...in your pants!


Whoo hoo! Finally, its time for some original (although old) art! Here are a few sketches I did for Blur's 2006 short film, "A Gentlemen's Duel", which I had the priviledge of co-directing and writing with Francisco Ruiz Velasco. The artists pulled out all the stops in every aspect of this film, and it turned out beautifully. Although it was ultimately snubbed by the academy (Apparently they dont like dogs peeing on things...), it has gone on to win quite a few awards in both domestic and international film festivals...

Fanboy Alert!

To further foster the impression that I have not an original bone in my body, here's a Hellboy bust Iworked on tonight as part of "Blur Skulpt Klub" here at work, where a handful of us gather every Wednesday night to poke and prod lumps of polymer clay for fun. This is my own interpretation of hellboy, with the horns rooted near the back of his head and more prominent cheek-bone armored thingies...you know, real creative stuff....


took these out-of focus pictures with my iphone...I'll take better ones when its done and painted...

I guess I shouldnt mention I was actually wearing a "Hellboy" T-Shirt while sculpting this, eh?...

More (old) Goon Crap!

Heres some more stuff I did for "the goon" as a show of interest on the part of Blur Studio about a year and a half ago (maybe more). The car piece was used as part of the initial announcement of the film project on the internet...The Fishy Pete illustration wasn't...I guess hook-handed, fish-headed dock workers don't sell movies as well as firey gangster zombie car chases involving ax-wielding squids...


I promise I'll post some non-Goon related art eventually...

oooh, this Bandwagon is comfier than I thought...

I've finally entered the 21st century with my very own sketch blog (which is kind of an inaccurate title, seeing as how I'm gonna post finals here too...).

Anyway, here's the first post:



This is a poster I recently painted (digitally) for the San Diego Comic Book Convention in order to announce the partnership between David Fincher, Blur Studio, and Dark Horse Comics in bringing Eric Powell's "The GOon" to the big screen as a computer-animated feature film. Here are the thumbnails I did for the poster:


And here's an in-progress version of the painting...




I'll post some more crap later...
