Gallery Update: Some old “Wilhelm” Concept Art

Prior to my wife lovingly strong-arming me into the digital art world, I had been tentatively dipping my toes into those waters for several years. Like many, I had started out by doing traditional graphite or charcoal drawings and then scanning them and trying to color them digitally. This process was clunky for a lot of reasons, but a major road block for me had been trying to do all that Photoshop coloring and whatnot with a mouse rather than a stylus. At one point I tried to incorporate another traditional aspect one of my college professors, illustrator and teacher

Sketchbook: Revery concept sketches

While I’ve been working on several other projects, trying to get this site up and going, trying to get the Etsy shop started, and other “stuff”, I’ve had my in-the-works graphic novel Revery on my mind. A lot. I’m itching to get back to work on it, and maybe, I dunno, finish it. I have more ideas for that world that I want to eventually get to, but I have to finish volume 1 first. I had pretty much figured I was done writing and thumbnailing it, but last night, on our way over to our local mountain for some

Gallery Update: Random Doodle-age

As I mentioned sometime last week, I’ve opted to put 10 Things on hold for a bit and put some effort into a handful of t-shirt designs so I can get my Etsy store up and running. I have 3, in addition to the It’s Plunger Monkey Dynamo Time shirt, PMD designs that are almost done, another one that’s in sketch form, and then several non-PMD more graphic designs that I think might be cool.The original plan was to pump them all out in a week, but I grossly underestimated how much time my obsessive self would take to finish

The Final Piece of Revery Concept Art

It’s Monday, my monkeys, which means I’ve updated the PMD Brainism and posted a new image to the gallery. The new image is yet another early digital drawing and the final piece of concept art I generated for Revery. I call this one Claw Face Ambush, because the two main characters are being ambushed by Claw Faces. Crazy, right? So, yes, the human is me. Revery was sparked by a series of weird dreams I had many years ago, which I combined with the lifetime I’ve spent wandering imaginary worlds in my head. The result is hopefully a tangible manifestation

Mondays Are For Plungers

Okay, it’s update time on this snow day. I’ve decided that, for now, I’ll add a new PMD Brainism on Monday’s. The image will stay static…but I may change that once I finish up some other odds and ends in the future. For now, be entertained by what my brain thinks is important to tell me at all hours of the day.

I added a new image to the gallery, another concept piece and early digital drawing: The Rogue Dream Squad. It’s from that graphic novel I keep referencing (but not finishing)-Revery. The two Cobblies are Gwan and Jeeto, members of

King of the Cobblies

I just posted a new old image to the gallery, another concept piece from Revery (which I will finish! I promise! It’s all plotted and thumb-nailed, the first 15 or so pages are drawn…I just need to get a few other projects out of the way and iron out a few work flow issues). This is King Belain, King of the Cobblies (which is what he and Adarax are). Instead of just posting the “finished” concept art here as well as the gallery, I thought I’d post the initial rough sketch. Pencil drawing is still my favorite, I love the
