Illustration Station 009 - More Action Man, More Books

I did this drawing recently as a going away present for a co-worker. The long due next page of 40 days in time and space should come along shortly, as well.

Tales from the Sketchbook 014 - Day 18

Still playing around with ideas for a bigger illustration. I like juxtaposing a simple figure with a simple silhouette against a very detailed and busy background. Maybe having the figure in color with the background in blocked-in grays. I just don't know if this is the background for the figure I've got in mind, or if I should come up with a new figure idea. I can always save the one I have in mind for later. Questions that can only be answered with more sketches.

Tales from the Sketchbook 013 - days 14 through 17

Been a busy weekend.

Started sketching this at the Free Press Summerfest in Houston, but the rain kinda stopped my ability to get much more sketching done. Either way, seeing a live performance from the Flaming Lips fill your head with enough imagery to last for months.
A bit of that imagery has been working it's way into an idea for a pin-up poster illustration. Still haven't started on the final image, but I like the way the sketches are going.

Also, the idea for this cathedral/spaceship has been floating around in my head too. I'm not sure about the design I have here, but we'll see where it goes.
