Fyllo Expressions

I had some free time of late, which has been great to develop these characters more. Also to expand my art portfolio, since I really don't have any "finish" pieces, more just sketches. Allot of times when I'm drawing Fyllo, I draw him with out the flower on his head, then go back over the body with a new sheet of paper on my light table and draw the flower, vines, and leaves afterwards.

Pefko

Pefko (PH-F-KO) is the latest additional to the characters of Fyllo's world. (Still don't have a name for that :/) He's base off a pine tree and a Native American, so I have him able to use his pine needles as weapons and his pine cones as part of his armor.

I'm not sure if this is the final design of the character, but its pretty close. I have a few more characters in mind, I just have to design them.

Remember this guy?

Yea the kid that just needs a hug. Seems Fyllo still on a angry rampage ha. There is a nice side to this character, I'm sure I'll get around to drawing it at some point along with some facial expressions. I'm trying to figure out a style that I like for the characters and enviroments in this world. I do like how this came out but I dont think this is the style I'm looking for.

Also this picture shows a extra part that I havnt shown in the previous drawings of him, the flower on the back of his big old head. Fyllo has a flower growing out of the back of his head. The main vine leads to his forhead to form the little swirl on it, while it also branches out to his left arm and right leg. It was fun drawing this out, I've been lacking a creative output lately and this just flowed right out :) I have a few other characters I'm going to try to develope soon and post. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Landscape In Motion

This was a little experiment I've been working on when I had some free time. I been wanting to do some environments since I did the realistic photo compilations for the project I was working on with my buddy Carl. Having a landscape broken up into layers really help build depth in a image. In animation it can really help build the illusion of the z space when you pan scenes and have each moving at different speeds. I'm pretty happy with this at the moment. I think the next one I work on will be more realistic rendering, I really want to try to get into more realistic rendering illustrations.

Reed Gunther Motion Comic

This is a motion comic that I got a chance to work on recently. The comic/art work belongs to a friend of mine, Chris Houghton. Through Protonic Reversal, my friend Carl's company that I'm a partner in, we did this motion comic teaser trailer. It was a blast to work on it. The story and characters were fun to work with and translated well into animation. If you get a chance you should check out Chris's comics and other work, along with swinging by the Protonic Reversal website :)

This is the second motion comic job I worked on. The other one I cant show much of the work or talk about what company I did it for. Its fun working on these projects though. Its a mixer of working in Photoshop and then bringing it into After Effects, a program I know all to well. Carl and I split the work down the middle, and then he did the audio for the trailer. You should check out the Protonic Reversal youtube page to see some of the other projects that the company is working on.
