Seething Fury

This is a character I have been working on named Gasha who is very angry with you right now.

The World of the Scroungers

Here are a couple examples of where the Scroungers have built their structures. The first is a small town where Scroungers reside and live out their daily lives. The second is a canyon with tall huts that serve as watch/communication towers.

Scrounger Vehicles

When venturing out far from their protected cities and towns, it is always best to have some wheels. Here are some vehicles the Scroungers use to get around and collect more scrap, including a fully customizable pod car complete with attachments.

Scrounger Equipment

Scroungers spend much time collecting items and scraps from ruined cities and destroyed monsters. They use these items to build and repair everything they can. Some of the most important items they build are the ones they carry around with them as they explore. While they never go anywhere without the means to defend themselves, they have the resources and knowledge to build one on the spot if necessary. Here are some of their weapons and gadgets.

Echidna

Echidna is an idea for a series I have been working on. It's an animated drama based on another planet. The main character is named Echidna (nicknamed "Kidd") and she's returning to her home world which she has been away from for several years. Although the sci-fi aspect is prevalent, the main conflict arises from the character conflict and an exploration of human emotions. While discovering how things have changed among her old family and friends, she also discovers changes in herself that go far beyond normal. Here are the six main characters.

 From Left to right; Kidd, Max, Dawn, Aurelia, Bomber, and Pyke.

The Scavenger Monsters

Here are some of the villains I designed for Scroungers. While the Scroungers themselves are great inventors and tinkerers, they draw the line at experimenting on living beings. However, the combination of flesh and machine has corrupted some darker souls. These Scavengers are the creators of the twisted monsters that roam the lands. Here are some of the monsters that the Scroungers may face when exploring the world.

Meet the Scroungers

For reasons beyond my comprehension, I have been drawing and hoarding like crazy, which means that there will be a steady stream of drawings and designs coming into this blog.  Many of them will be concepts I made for a game idea I have been working on called "Scroungers."

Scroungers combines the hopelessness and dark overtones of a post-apocalyptic world with the cheeriness and positivity of these strange, little, big-headed characters. These are the Scroungers.  They work hard to keep life rolling along in a hash environment with air that is no longer breathable. Whether they are fighting off scary bio-mechanical monsters or racing for their life from a collapsing skyscraper, they always make time for games and fun experiments. The game combines third-person action and exploration in an MMO world. The classes to choose from are Mechanic, Guard, Surveyor, and Scientist. Have a look:

Ancient Creator

Whoa, no posting in over a year? I better do something about that!

The Outskirts

The future doesn't look so bright. Well, at least not in this dreary landscape. This is a thriving metropolis build in the middle of a scrapyard wasteland. The tallest building (Tendrel Tower) is a repeating theme in many of my drawings. It represents progress at any cost, including the now desolate and polluted environment. Have a look! Tell me what you think!

Old Comic Covers

Here are some old comic covers I designed for a short animated film "Will." Though you never do get a good shot of them, they were still a lot of fun to do. It's difficult to parody a style that is so ridiculous to begin with. While researching old 50's and 60's comic covers, I saw many that were more wild and cheesy than these. Hope you enjoy!

Muppet X-Men babies

I have to post this just because I had so much fun with it. I did it for "Smash! Bam! Pow!" a few days ago for their last topic. For some reason combining X-Men and Muppet Babies made the most sense to me. I just sat myself down in Photoshop and didn't get up until I was done. Enjoy!

Kraken

I've been working on my own kraken and here he is. I figure if you wanna make something big, you might as well make it really big. I've been wanting to make a sea creature for a while ever since the creepiest creatures on the planet seem to come from the deep blue.

Cute and Cuddly

I decided to bring out the micron pens and use paper for a while and give the ol' tablet a rest. These are a couple ideas I had recently. I'm not a sadistic person, but I do love the contrast. The kid has the generic aggressively cute eyes to match a bloody knife, and who can be mad at a dog that looks so innocent?

Current Project: REVEN

I've been fleshing out one of my characters lately and I think she's coming along well. Her name is Reven and she has a mechanical claw/hand/drill as her weapon. I've been playing around with an effective way to show the ins and outs of that machine, but until then, here is the turnaround I've been sketching in photoshop. Since I've been primarily working on her lately, she is most likely going to be the star in my flat book in which I am currently having design issues with.
