Japan Work Update-fest
I wanted to showcase some of the work I did in Japan before my stay was tragically shortened.
This series is called Japanese Myths in Ignorance.
The basic premise is that I found a Wikipedia page with very vague 1-2 sentence descriptions of dozens of Japanese Mythical Creatures. I took it upon myself to, without prior knowledge of them, or having seen them before, creatively redesign some of them based on very little information and, in a sense, make them my own.

Update Spree, Part 2
Update Spree, Part 1
Sup guys, Finals were a bit rough, and I have been sadly neglecting my internet responsibilities. I kicked their ASS though. more on that later. I haven't updated in ages, so I'm going to make up for lost time. Starting with Character Design. Here you are.
This is my design for a vulture demigod named Jatayu, re-imagined as a spaceship. not the best of my designs, but I like it for the most part.
This is the cave that he dwells in. A platform that is as chaotic as a vulture's nest. Up next is my final.

Character Design. Hindu Robot!
I worked out a bunch of sketches for this one, and I really feel that I've found my niche. This is the stuff I've always wanted to do. I think I've fallen in love with this class. This is just one page of many.
My teacher said I should choose the 1st or the 5th on the page, so the 5th it was. I was digging the design, but not the colors. Neither was my teacher.
So here's the re-color/ improved piece. I absolutely loved the way it came out.
This is an orthograph I did for the design.
More to come soon!
