Von Bansik is a flirt

First test animation of the year. The timing is a little off, but my personal favorite is the ear flick.

Lipsync Animation to Ballroom Blitz

This is my WIP for an assignment in Steve's Tech 2 class. I'm having fun with it, but so far, its a lot of work.

I need to get the hell off the ground...out from under my feet

I have as any other artist had serious doubts in myself. I am afraid to fail, i'm afraid to be let down again, I feel like i'm going up the endless staircase in "Super Mario 64" (if anyone remembers that part in that game) and it feels like i'm going up all these steps and then you turn Mario around and you see that he hasn't gone anywhere. I haven't felt like Mario more than ever right now in that situation. I've even thought of taking a semester off, but I gotta keep going. There's too much at stake, other than my health problems, I have a lot of things to sort out through my mind to get through. And I guess I just gotta stay here at school and work it out and not give up even in the hardest times.

Heh, I even forget how you unlock the endless staircase. I think you need to do something in a different world. Maybe I really just need to go to another world to get where I want to go.

Here's a photo of the said endless staircase. This is a screenshot from Super Mario 64, its © to Nintendo. I'm just using it for a metaphoric example.


More animations and work posted later.

Richard Collab and art trade

Art trade with Courty of her bf's char, Dusky.


I got permission from Patrick to post this, actually he insist I post this. It's a good pic so I will. It's of his character Richard, that he colored and drew, and I shaded and highlighted him with a gel pen. Awesome collab if I do say so myself.

I got more like sketchbook stuff, but I gotta scan that. More badges coming soon too.

Edward Portrait

A portrait of Edward Cullen (from the Twilight Series) done by me, reference used from the move poster to get the actor's face right, and I touched it up in photoshop, but its mostly painted on Open Canvas 1.1

There's some things I could fix more on it, but i'll leave it at that. I really wanna try something like this on a canvas but with Dante. ^_^

Me and Ree are hopefully going to go to see Twilight on friday of MFF. And go to the Chicago AMC, SON. Excitment is building!

Also i'm getting together a portfolio to show at MFF in case people want to buy digital stuff from me later. And i'll be selling badges and prints there. The Sumi-E wolf painting will be up for a print and possibly my anthro city picture as well. I'll probably whip up some more full color things since those 2 are in greyscale.

Vehicle Critique

Ok heads up guys, i'm gonna be doing a commission which involves me drawing a motorcycle/scooter vehicle and I really am not familiar with drawing too many vehicles. I've done a few in the past, but then I don't draw them everyday, so I was wondering if anyone was up for critique or what not that's experienced with that. That'd rock. Also like links to tutorials or tips on how to color and shade said vehicles in photoshop would be AMAZING. I know I have some really awesome digital artists here that i'm linked up to, and if you guys would help, that'd be awesome.

That's all for now.

What I have coming soon are:

Starbar's Partial
5 new commissioned glow in the dark badges
The digital painting I mentioned above.

AFTER SEPTEMBER 2ND, ALL LARGE COMMISSIONS WILL BE HELD OFF UNTIL WINTER BREAK (date to be announced)

I WILL STILL ACCEPT BADGE, ICON, SKETCH, AND HEADSHOT COMMISSIONS.

Thanks and God bless. <3
