Was bored of other work, and decided to whip up a super quick version of Claudio Acciari's characters. Also did up a present to a very important person who helped us last year in japan. The big spirit thing is based off a japanese kami of guidance/ strength.

Darklord Dave

2011-08-07T00:38:00.001-07:00

Here's a print I did for Sideshow Collectibles given to a good man at Comic Con 2011 named Dave Stephan. He jump-started the sideshow collector's fan forum and Sideshow wanted to honor him by presenting him with this print. The final was fucking huge! haha. I hope he dug it! It's basically him as a sith lord haha.

I had to pull the version with the text since the actual is on my older laptop which I don't have access to right now ahhh.

This is retarded. Sorry.

2011-07-20T00:16:00.000-07:00

T shirt design for a screenprinting class Im taking tomorrow with some peeps from work. I always thought Ghibli shirts were lacking, so I decided to do a samurai Totoro. Don't ask.

GROUP FEELM

2011-04-26T10:14:00.000-07:00

some animation from film from Ian MacDonald on Vimeo.

Just some of the stuff I did for the group film!

Here's a breakdown:
For the first one, I did the rough animation/ tie downs on the girl/ trex, and Alanna McGonegal cleaned it up and she/ Sun Ah Kim colored. Abe Taraky did the bg.

The second one, I just did the effects, and Titus Lau/ Matt Cemalovic colored em up. Titus animated the trex in overdrive and Abe did the bg.

The 3rd one I animated the fire effects and did some posing. Titus colored the efx, and animated the rainbow, while Abe did the bg ( i rough sketched it), and Omar Al-Hafidh did the jitter of the dragon and trex.

In the last one I animated the little girl, Alanna cleaned it up. Omar animated the dad while Sun cleaned it up, and Phill Studiman did the bg.

2010-07-14T18:32:00.000-07:00

Alright, so the gang at Satellite Soda is releasing two artbooks this year, not one, but TWO- one of which I was allowed in by those awesome people. If you're in San Diego, are going to Comic Con, and have money, BUY ONE! Or else I will punch you. The art is absolutely sick, and a ton of awesome was used in the making of the books, so support Soda!

LINKAGE: http://satellitesoda.com/v3/post/58/

There are awesome previews of the two books there. Also, buying the artbook gets you TWO 11'' x 17'' prints, and maybe a SKETCH! The anthology gets you 1 print and a drawing!

The awesome artists who made this happen are :

Abel Samez, Andrew Alexander, Ashleigh "Py" Hetrick, Dan Ciurczak, Daniel Alexander, Daniel Lopez, David Igo, David Moser, David Murdoch, Dylan Glynn, Dylan McCrae, Elisa Phillips, Enrique Corts, Fabian "Monk" Schlaga, Fazaad Feroze, Gene "Cannon Fist" D'cruze, Geoff Trebs, Ian MacDonald, Jeremy Moore, Kris Anka, Nick Losq, Pascal Brander, Raul Osorio, Sukhbir Purewal, Scott Wade, Shane Hillman, Tien "Rabbling" Hee, Toby Mobbs, Tom "Red Monkey" Jilesen, Vladimir Jean, Yuki Salinas, Zach Cross, Kyle Foster, Pedro Delgado

K so Jeremy Bondy lent me his warcraft artbook so I could look at how they design armor for inspiration for a piece I'm working on, but needless to say I got sidetracked and ended up drawing an orc. Also here's a girl with a sword and obligatory Ian monster in background.

So I was an idiot and decided it'd be a good idea to merge the layers in my last nameplate, so I can't hand it in for full marks as a result. I decided then to color my other nameplate, and thar she blows
