Clusshance - II

- More from my character design of Clusshance. His character is based on a bedtime story, my dad used to tell my brother's and I as kids.... I'm thinking of someday expanding the story...Still, a work in progress.

The ladies will love him, ...he's a real gentleman.

I'm looking forward to the PIXAR masterclass, I will be attending in Montreal June 13-14. Animator Andrew Gordon, and Pixar story artist Matthew Luhn will be the two lecturers.
Both PIXAR professionals have worked on titles such as; A Bug's Life, Toy Story 1& 2, Monsters Inc., The Incredibles, Ratatouille, as well as Up!.
There is still time... so sign UP! and I'll see ya there :)

OFF TO THE ZOO! part 2

- Orangutan studies. Definitely one of the most entertaining and my personal favorite to study @ the zoo. The way they make use of their feet, They practically have 4 arms!. They swing effortlessly through the indoor structure. Also very intelligent amongst the primates. The Orangutans in these drawings; are of the mother, the sister and 3 yr old brother.
More to come!

Boy Scout 2

- I thought I'd post a couple more drawings of the "Boy Scout" character. I've tightened the design a little more. pushing the eyes closer together seems to work a little better.
- some may think Pixar's "UP" Russel character inspired this character, but Boy Scout was created long before I knew of the movie. What can I say, great minds think alike...?

OFF TO THE ZOO! part 1

So I recently bought a membership to the Toronto Zoo, and have been there twice now. Here are a few sketches from the trips! it really is AMAZING observing the animals there.
I've added color to a few in Photoshop.
The human onlookers provide material for drawing as well :)>
My goal is to educate myself further and improve with every visit...There will be more to come!
...
Oh and let me know if you want to accompany me, we can sketch together! ya!
