Alright, as Jake posted a dragon and Oliver put a duck on his blog I couldn't resist but to follow in hot pursuit...

I showed Mrs Potts once before, but did I show her neighbour's yacht? (Both designs are for a children's production led by writer and composer Henry Muldrow)Usually, I start drawing small sketches of the character / vehicle / bg I'm aiming at. Then I continue with sketches in the final scale.


Pencil

I'm quite concerned with the quality of those new pencils.BTW: I'm featured in the August 2008 issue of the ImagineFX magazine, as I noticed today. Together with some brill wizards like Gabriele Pennacchioli (DreamWorks), Colin Fix (2K Games) et al. I think I'm in good company :)

Sorry for the lack of updates and replies! We're terribly busy ('n still terribly far away) so I'm bad about answering e-mails and comments. Below you find two early sketches of some minor characters for the StarDucks project. I hope I can post some coloured/finished pieces, soon.After all, I'm thinking (and my dear pal Herrera is forcing me :) of doing a sketchbook sometime in the near future. Th

Update (SUNDAY, August 24, 2008): One can draw pretty good here :) Currently, I'm preparing a couple of new sample drawings (some birdish critters - it's a good practice for me for the upcoming StarDucks project) for lectures I'll hold both at the IPES Institute for Advanced Studies and the Animation Campus Academy in Montevideo. I plan to post the finished pieces a little later.----Finally, I had

The trees still have no leaves on their branches. Well, it's still winter, here. Update (TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9th): What I've forgotten to mention is that this "weaponish" horn up the front is a motor horn. The only thing it hurts is one's ears. A flying cheers from Cordoba (ARG)!

This is another supporting birdish critter from the StarDucks' characters cosmos.Pelicans are pretty cool birds, aren't they? I took those photos at the Pacific coast of Chile, two weeks ago.

I did that piece right after crossing the Andes, some weeks go. I'll tell you a little more about StarDucks really soon now... The colour palette I worked with.On the bottom right, that tiny thumbnail is for Flaviano. Talking of pals, Achdé (Lucky Luke) did a brill caricature of Lee Van Cleef.

Voila, the finished piece. This sujet gives quite a wee bit away on the 1st StarDucks adventure's central theme, but it does not spoil it.Alright, here's the work sheet - including some not used Quake Protective Suit vehicle thumbs - and... ...a sort of advanced colour palette "abstract painting":Update: Lars Kroiss WINS with Volvo 122 StarDucks Steampunk Racer Edition (Historic A class) the La Ca

Didn't I tell you before? I'm a bit loopy... and affected with Steampunk disease.Optional equipment: WiFi steering wheel.I took the colours both from the Red Bull corporate colours and from this photo I made in Santiago de Chile.


StarDucks: Birdish Critter In Motorsuit
2008-10-15 09:45:00
An antagonist of sorts.There is no denying that the inspiration came from those photos I took at the city zoo of Cordoba, Argentina. I have quite a fixation on Pelicans, haven't I?On a totally unrelated subject: Did I mention that I love Steve Lambe's work so much that it hurts my head? And the same goes for Martin Wittig and fellow Matt Williames, who, btw, recently became a "hand drawing residen

Visual Development Roughs

Here're some other vis-dev roughs and character designs I did, last year. I blueprinted some really wacko things back then...In this connection my compliments to my fellow co-heads of development, Robert and Andy. They're versatile wizzkids to the core. The same goes for our long distance trouper from Atlanta, Michael. 'Hope we'll set up another one of sorts in the near future...I for one have now

Layout

As I do not have any new stuff to show on this very day, I put this oldie on the blog. A rough animation layout test I did for a cartoon series pitch, some years ago. I posted this piece here once before. Sorry for the re-run.BTW: BG/layout work is quite important to my character designs. It is fair to say that I draw the place before I draw the characters. Or more philosophical: I form the charac
