IF: "Wilderness: OH My!"

I had a hard time coming up with this image as I couldn't come up with an image for "Wilderness" but then I had a bit of inspiration. The image depicts the last Dodo bird coming into contact with a Lion, Tiger and Bear (Hopefully you catch the reference from the Wizard of OZ!?) right before it is eaten.

I hope you enjoy it...By the way I couldn't think of what to do to the background so I left like it is...If you have a suggestion please let me know what you think as I would appreciate the feedback.

Confined

This is my first contribution to Illustration Friday which I hope won't be my last. The word given was "Confined" and I immediately thought of business men in a box. After thinking about it for a while and doing some thumbnails I came up with this. A bunch of business men being jumbled together in a cube form.

More Ninija Turtles

GEEKALERT!GEEKALERT!GEEKALERT!GEEKALERT!GEEKALERT!

I have been bored lately after moving back home to Jacksonville, FL and for some unknown reason the Ninja turtles got stuck in my head. Perhaps I am reminiscing my childhood or I just wanted to give myself some sort of manifestation to channel my depression...Oh well! Either way I think the image looks cool.

Let me explain the picture to you all: (From Left to Right)

Leo: I imagined the Turtles after their teenage years and Splinter is passed to that sensi heaven so now Leo has become their new sensi and leader. I think at this point in his life Leo has become a pacifist and more like a buhdist monk. That doesn't mean he won't fight or use a sword but instead he will try to resolve the conflict with words instead of action. Don't be fooled though he still carries a sword...Its in his walking stick.

Don: I imagine Don is still an inventor and scientist. I almost see him as like the Beast in the X-Men. Out of all the Turtles he is the one who wears clothes as he is trying to assimilate more to humans. He is holding his new bow staff in his hand which will pop open to a larger size.

Mikey: The skater/surfer guy and the all-a-round funny guy. I imagine out of all of the turtles he would be the one to get tattoos...I'm thinking tribal. He also wears a head band and has stickers of skater/surfer designs on his shell.

Raph: The only Turtle who still wears his mask and still trains for fights. I imagine he is all scarred up due to fighting and still slightly bitter at not being leader. The more serious one of them all.

OK...I know...I'm a geek! I admit it.

Turtle Fun!

Just having some fun and trying to get better at Photoshop still.

Broken Anthology

Here is my contribution to the Break Anthology comic being put together my some former SCAD grads. My good friend Brett told about it and I jumped at the chance to push myself to do something. It was a lot of fun and it's always good to challenge yourself to do something like this as it can only help to push you to new and better things.
