I recently spent a month in New Zealand, road tripping around and basically having the time of my life.
This is an illustration chronicling my amazing experiences. It’s all from memory, but I’m pretty sure I got every single detail exactly right. No inaccuracies whatsoever.
Pictured are my amazing native guide Ms. An Nah Lee and myself.
As always, feel free to click on the image for a larger more glorious version.
A submission for a contest that someone was hosting on deviantart to draw anything related to the toxic crusaders (which I got third place in). Obviously I had to draw Smellvin Melvin (aka Toxie) himself in a bit of a spoof of the VHS cover of the first movie.
Continuing my series of Ninja Turtles characters with April.
So I always thought that the character of April was super lame in the TV show and movies. She seemed more like a screenplay writer’s fetish than an actual legitimate character. For my version of April I really wanted to stray from the typical fanart of her standing around in her yellow jumpsuit with the zipper pulled half way down, and try to actually give her a bit of substance.
I was thinking of her more as a non-mainstream investigative journalist. Perhaps she keeps a blog that outlines her “conspiracy theories” about the foot clan. I wanted her to appear to work behind the camera and not in front of it. Mostly I’m trying to stray from the image of her as a television news personality. Those people drive me insane.
The mysterious and deadly El Chupacabra; sucker of livestock, and bane of herders.
After “dressing up” as El Chupacabra for Halloween I wanted to draw my own version of the mysterious beasty. I honestly cannot think of a more silly crytpozoological critter.
This was drawn in pencils and colored on my computer using drop shadows and paper texture to get the cut-out effect.
