Must practice more and faster…

Some crappy “warm-up” drawings. Never really got warmed up. Even though it should rightly be classified as turd polishing, I played around with some coloring. The uncolored sketches in the second batch are me trying to learn from some Disney drawings; the other stuff is just stuff. All done in MyPaint.

Not much

Decisions, Decisions…

I had a little time to work on the Brad character for my mini-comic. I had this one look that I thought was kind of funny…

No Chin Brad

Brad wouldn't like this one.

But De said he wouldn’t like it – and Brad did specifically request to be drawn as a babe magnet – so I’ve decided to give Brad a sort of Justin Bieber look instead.

Oremor the War Dwarf

So I’m putting together a little mini-comic and using some of my coworkers as characters. This is one character design idea that started to look like it was in the right ball park, so I thought I’d post it as proof that I actually made headway. One of my colleagues is named Mike Romero and when I spelled his last name backwards, I thought it was a perfect name for a War Dwarf – whatever that is. Click on the image to get a bigger version. For those who keep track of such things, this was sketched in MyPaint on Linux Mint 11, so it’s full of open source goodness. More to come…

“No Guns” Dunlop

Trying to get the hang of SketchBook Pro and this is my first official drawing. I feel a little as though I’m cheating on open source, but Sketchbook Pro is very reasonably priced and it seems pretty handy for digital sketching and drawing.

3DMagix and IllusionMage, scams or open source leeches?

Just doing my small part to help prevent people from being scammed by these Blender rip-offs:

3DMagix, 3DMagixPro, IllusionMage, scam

If you’d like to help stop the scam, here’s how:

A grass-roots solution is to push 3DMagix and IllusionMage from the top search results in Google, and replace them with a link to the article on Blender.org. This should warn people who are about to buy this ‘product’.

To do so, we’ll need as MANY well-formed incoming links on that page. Be sure to use the names 3DMagix and IllusionMage in the text part of the link. Here’s a piece of code that you can use on your own website:
