Makoto P.E. Costume

I had been posting so much on Deviant art that I been neglecting my own blog. This is another of the Alt street fighter 4 costume I did.

R. Mika Perfect Peach

C'mon, She's got a special move called the flying peach. What's not to love about that. I been so busy I hardly have time to do any personal work. Still had a blast trying to get a few minutes in to finish this each night.

Elena "Jungle" night club Costume

I had an invitation to do a costume of one of my favorite Streetfighters in a new outfit. At the time, all I could think was how much I wanted to draw a new Elena. Wanted something flashy but still classic looking. The bell bottom thing fit with her dancing theme and I just went from there.

Bone Yard Franky pinup

Had this sketch on hold for a week almost. I wanted to do an Illustration for Josh Greathouse's web comic, Bone Yard Franky. I redrew the cast and got a little carried away. Some people may not stand out as much. Frank and JIm I think are the easiest recognizable but, Natasha and Carrie/Champagne are just a little to styled. Pretty much everyone with a face, except the the three extras behind Frank, are part of the cast. Well, here's a shot out Josh and his comic.

Kurenai, The Red Ninja 3

Itwas only a matter of time before I got back to this character again.

Elena? Are you OK!?!

Been meaning to get another pick of this character out the door. She and Mika are my fave lady's from Street fighter.

Red

Another commissioned piece. I was asked to do an Illustration of A character just referred to as "RED". I hadn't taken the time to find out her actual name but scanning through the ref I was given I found a few things about her. I think she may be called Red Sonja. If that is her name I can understand just going by the nick name. The other is that apparently she is like Samson. I don't know the total ins an outs of it but she has some spell placed on her where she has to keep her chest bare at all time. I don't know if like samson this is the source of her strength or some bizarre curse.

Akiko Daimon

I was asked to do a commission from someone who had seen my art and I was turned on to a rarity in anime. Its been called Manga Muscle girls. Or at least that was the way It was referred to. I like the blend of the typical overly cutesy anime damsels with the stern physic of body builders. Of course, some of these girls run the gambit from well toned to down right buff. So much so that there are some that would dwarf your standard comic action hero.

Terra Red

I had a guy ask me if I would redraw one of his characters and I agreed. To bad I started getting more Illustration work and had to put it on hold for about a week. Still, it was a fun project though.

Makoto 2

Revisiting the design I did earlier with color.

CatGrrl2_Garfield

Took a break from work to enjoy myself. I posted this character before it was more blue back then. I had originally wanted her to be Orange but I when I played around with the cool colors I just left it that way.

StaceyTron

I guess I spoke too soon when I said that I made my last Illustration for the month. I fan of my art Stacey "Tron" Owens hit me up for a sketch to put in her book. I've been as much a fan of her work as well and I love her figure. When she asked if I could make this happen before she went to print I asked Mel if we could put the work on hold till I was done. He was cool with it. With this last sketch off my desk its going to be pretty quiet around here for a couple months. Here's hoping the work goes well and that I'm back to my routine by early July.

Truth or Daire

You may remember Belladaire from one of my earlier posts. I recently took the time to try and recreate one of my favorite original characters. She is essentially a fem-Al Capone. Posing as a dignified lady of luxury is part-time schtick. The truth of the matter is that she has her hands on the pulse of much of the shady dealing in the crime world. This pick is a bit out of character for her as she is the type to see this kind of behavior to be "undignified". On the other hand I made sure to give her a "Your going to pay for this", scowl.

Elena Pt2

I've been really indulgent lately. On the other hand, my day to day work has been stressing me out. So at least I can have fun with my sketches. It had been a long time since I played around with this character. I just really wanted to draw her upside down. Thats the honest truth. I had no other inspiration other than that. I'll prolly get another one in before the end of the year.

Isabelle

I just wrapped up a sketch for a guy whose a fan of my artwork. I have been busy lately, but I've been trying to commit to getting some sketches done. I don't often get people asking me to draw in my style so I saw it as more fun than extra work. I think the real challenge was trying not to go to far. I mean it is someone's wife we're talking about. Adam Hughes had a rant about how "not" to draw a guys girlfriend. I think that there's a sketch of it up somewhere.
