MEGA, MEGA!!!

Well...along side of the mock Street Fighter poster I did a couple days ago...I have started this piece too.  8bit Mega Man jumping with Mega Man 8's Mega Man.  I haven't seen this sort of thing done yet...PERSONALLY.  So I decided to take some of my creative candies and eat them.  So much MEGA!!!  These won't be colored until I have picked up a new tablet for my new computer.  So until then...everything's all monochromatic.  ENJOY!!!

Street Fighter Poster

Here's my Street Fighter fan poster.  Of course, there are no colors or details.  This is just the inks.  I'm waiting for my chance to buy another tablet that's compatible with CS5 so I can do a bang up job coloring.  There are two that I have omitted because I am still fleshing out their looks.  Other than that...ENJOY!

ANIMATIONS ANIMATIONS ANIMATIONS!!!

It has DEFINITELY been a minute since I've posted.  Well...truth is...I've started another blog...over at tumblr...  DON'T HURT ME!!!  However, I have decided to juggle the both of my blogs for many reasons...multiple outlets of exposure!!!  Plus I want to make sure all of those who follow are up to date with my latest.

Anywho...

So remember that Cerulean project that I have been working on for FOREVER. Well...it's DONE!!!  And I have it right above.  So take a peek and let me know.  ALSO, I have been get back into Maya this month.  Taking a shot at this month's 11Sec Club sound clip.  Hoping I do well...  You can see the latest with that up above as well.  Alrighty...until then...ENJOY!

Figures!!!

Another collage of sketches that I do as warm ups before animating.  Enjoy!

Characters!!!

Well...not REALLY...I mean there are some...these are more just sketches that I do to warm up for my animation sessions.  Nothing else to really say about this...haha.  OH! I did have a little fun messing around with the masked dudes weight and overall mass.  There is a slim looking version and then a more built version. AND, there's this Kramer caricature that I did too, haha. Other than that, had fun!  Enjoy.

Don't Call It A Comeback, I Was Home Anyway

Howdy all!  It has INDEED been a while since my last post.  Well, that's because I have been animating!  I will admit, I did run into a slump, but that happens. Good news, however; I broke free from those horrible clutches and have been back on track ever since.  This next piece is actually something that my Aunt asked me to do a WHILE ago...like a year ago, and I never really got around to it due to forgetting and such.  Well, I decided to finally knock it out and hopefully mail it to her all nice and framed by Christmas!!! 

She is a big fan of Bishop from the X-Men cartoon that aired in the early 90's...1992 I wanna say.  She said she just wanted Bishop and that I could add anyone else I wanted to into the mix.  So what I did was take that cast that was around during that storyline (in the show) and made it work.  I think Gambit was apart of it too...and Rogue.  Oh well, maybe next time.  Enjoy!!!

Feed The One That's Closer, As You're Flickering On

Remember the animation bit I was working on, with my story Cerulean?  Well I am back on that for the time being.  I am currently burnt out on my SF stuff at the moment and will be getting into this animation a little more than ever now, especially since the BGs are almost complete!  Well, without any more yapping from me, here is the latest.

Meet Mel Masters!!!

Yes!!!  The main character of this whole game.  Those who have followed the Street Fighter franchise know that Ken and Iliza (I think that is her name) had a boy and named him Mel.  Well, in this particular installment, Mel is older and has been trained in the form of Shotokan by his father, Ken.  Mel's purpose in this installment is to seek out Sean, who, after being consumed by the Dark Hadou, killed Ken.  Mel and Sean's friendship dates all the way back when Ken first started training Sean.  Mel does not seek revenge, but searches for Sean to try and save him from himself.  Mel's style takes after his father a great deal, with some of his own added moves.  His speed is just about the same as Ken's as well as his attitude.  When you have a world championship father who trains you since the moment you were able to stand up on your own two feet, it's okay to be a little cocky.  Just a little.

Meet Cataract!!!

Interesting fellow this Cataract guy is.  He works alongside Bison during the quest for capturing Sean.  So, why the purple skin???  Well, for one...he's actually dead.  During the saga of SF, Bison had been chipping away at a side project to find a legendary wrestler (whom I have no name for as of yet) that possesses the ability to successfully defeat his opponents with size and speed.  Unfortunately, this wrestler passed away due to heart problems from overusing a steroid that helped him achieve his legendary status.  Bison figured this guy would be a great asset to Shadloo even if he had to dig up his body and resurrect him.  Plus, it was easy to recruit him without having to force him to join. 

In order to resurrect Cataract, Bison passed along some of his Psycho energy into Cataract's body which causes his skin to turn purple.  He also injected a good amount of the steroid that Cataract used when he was alive to amplify his strength and speed.  Cataract no longer knows how to speak.  Instead he murmurs and makes weird noises to express his mood.  He is big and FAST and can cause a good amount of damage if you let him get close.  You have been forewarned.

Meet Tora!!!

This is Tora!  Like Arthur, she doesn't really have a significant role in this game.  She is on a quest to find Sagat and defeat him...for bragging rights.  Her motive's quite a selfish one, but as a female Muay Thai fighter she feels this will open plenty of doors for other female fighters or for those who are interested in taking up the art.  During her journey, she crosses paths with Mel and finds out that Sagat has already been defeated by his father's best friend, Ryu.  After hearing that, Tora then decides to find Ryu and beat him.  She's about 5'10 - 5'11 and has a pretty killer elbow strike.  Cocky at times, she seems very arrogant, however she balances that out with a great sense of sportsmanship before and after a fight.  Her speed is moderate and she has the ability to fight from any range.  Be careful!!!
