Riot Model Sheet

After much finagling, Mike and I have finally worked ARMSmasters' leading man, Riot, in to a model sheet. While I suspect a couple of tweaks may still be on this character's horizon, as he is ever evolving, it's pretty exciting to see him so solidified as a character as he stands now. Riot is definitely finding his own as the host to the series' awesome cast, and I'm very please to have had a small hand in that process.

Initial sketches to these drawings were by Mike Winn. Clean up and final color are by myself. For more on the ARMSmasters Project, check out the series' production blog. Thanks for viewing!

Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in Theaters

Over the past many months, I had the opportunity to help a team of talented folks convert the entirety of Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World into Stereoscopic 3D. It was tremendous fun learning our program of choice, Nuke, and to be able to see the lot of us make the film's credits for our efforts as well. (Congratulations, everyone!) So, if you happen to have a kid or two (this is 100% a kiddo popcorn flick) Gather them up and check out Spy Kids 4. It's now in theaters!

Posters in Print

So, it's official! The "May Dad The Giant" posters have officially hit print, and WOW. I'm absolutely thrilled how well they've turned out and printed, and at the size Pat was able to get out of the file I sent him. It really turned out wonderfully - I'm so happy to have been able to take part in it's creation. Also, it's fun to see my buddy "live" for the first time since he moved to Texas, here. Stay awesome, Mister Stannard!

I should have more artwork to post soon in general, by the by. I'm working on about a half a dozen things at once at the moment. Stay tuned! :)
