Vikings!

Hey everyone, here are some designs we're currently working on.

I've been watching a lot of Ren & Stimpy, Samurai Jack and Foster's Home lately so you may see a bit of that spilling into these. I'll be sure to post the screen recordings in next month's "Tinman in Review - March 2012" video.

Red Samurai WIP

Here are some shots from a short I'm working on. Since college I've been redesigning a red samurai with a fiery sword every couple of years. This year I'm animating it. It's still pretty far off, but should be done this week.

Alien Redesign

This is a redesign of a character I did shortly after college. I always really liked it, and thought it could use a bit of a face-lift.

New Design

Original Design - April 2005

Fun Illo

Here's one that's done in a bit of a different style for me. I might do a few more like this. I also animated this, which you'll be able to see on the Tinman Creative reel when we launch at the end of this month.

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a stellar 2011! See you all next year!

Tinman Promo Art

Here's some promo art for Tinman Creative I'm working on.

Cineplex Holiday Greeting

Here's a project we worked on at Tinman. Hope you like it!

Portrait

Here's a portrait I did for a friend of mine, Cory Skaaren. He runs the Dignified Devil blog.

Tinman Animated Short - Preview

Here's a preview of one of the projects we're working on at Tinman Creative. The final will be released in January alongside our official launch.

Dignified Devil - November

Here's my November illustration for The Dignified Devil.

Tintin

I took part in Toronto Draws Tintin. Here are a couple versions of my submission.

The Dignified Devil

Here's an illustration I did for The Dignified Devil. Head on over there to read the corresponding article and many other manly writings.

Zombie

Just a fun sketch I did over the weekend...

Andy

Exhibitionist

Here's a digital painting I put together today. Pretty happy with it. Gave it a title and everything..


Also, here is a work-in-progress on another one I'm putting together.

Falling

Just a quick piece today. Wanted to do something with an odd perspective, involving a bit of motion.

Old Woodland Fairy

Got a little further on this design. Still not quite done yet, but it's getting there. The idea for this character is that he's a very aged forest spirit. His wings are all tattered, and he is the colour of autumn approaching winter.

Interview - The Skaaren Design Blog

Was interviewed by Cory Skaaren for The Skaaren Design Blog. You can check out the interview here!

Also, here's a new design I've got in the works. It's a re-imagining of an old character I came up with a long time ago.

Sketching with Ink & Paint

I've started sketching with ink (no pencil). I've found I'm getting far more interesting work now that I have to dive right in, and that I'm unable to erase or undo. Did a bit of painting today too. Haven't done that in years, but it's something I've been meaning to get into.

Off to Ireland

I'm going to be in London, Ireland and Belgium for the next two weeks gathering design reference for a project that I've been production designing. I'm going to try and squeeze a bit of fun in too..
