chatterbox


(right click » view image for full)

Something I did yesterday to blow off some steam and have fun. It's been far too long since I've drawn any monsters :3 I just kind of made things up as I went along on this. The hardest thing was sticking with a color scheme I liked. In the end I decided to try a tetrad color scheme. Originally the image had some more foreshortening with the arms but I changed it because there was just TOO MUCH going on. Anyway, nothing at all spectacular, but something fun for me.

WIP SHOT

oh also-
http://colorschemedesigner.com/ is one of the most USEFUL sites out there for me. I use it all the time to get a really good working color scheme (or if I lack ideas for a color scheme I mess around on there for a while and try to find something I like) and base my colors around the swatches the site gives me.

Testing, testing! Hello blogger :3

Finally I have a reason to use my blogger account! I figured it would be fun for myself and of interest to many to have a place to post about my comic that's in the works. I'm still learning the ropes of comic making, so a lot of the posts here will be my experiments and studies that will not be used as any sort of "final product". I'll be posting a lot of concept art, character designs, story boards, and rough comic panels as well. Eventually you can expect full comic pages, but that is much further down the road. And aside from comic related stuff, there will be plenty of monster doodles and drawings :3

I love feed back, so don't be afraid to leave critique or suggestions! If you have any recommended reading please go ahead and tell it to me :]
