Dr Gory's Monstrosity




So, the Dr Gory project has evolved and mutated like a monster in a lab. Among other things, it's gone from ten minutes plus to a three or four minute trailer. Here are some illustrations and a short piece of animation. The lip sync is a bit off due to technical difficulties, but it's close enough for now...

Nuthouse Backgrounds

Here are a couple of backgrounds for another short that I'm working on. Mostly Photoshop and Corel Painter...

Gory's Lab


Here's a Sketchup model of a mad scientist's lab for an animated short I'm working on. The short will be in 2D (vector) but I generally like to build a Sketchup model first. This will be used to find camera angles for the storyboards, and then it'll become reference for the background paintings.

Rude Alien

Here's a low-res updated version of my alien character. A variant on the PG thumbs up version on the site. Actually, this was the original-- flippng each other the bird was how hotrodders used to challenge each other to a race.

Nurse & Clown

Okay, I'm replacing a low-res version of my last post and adding to it. Here are both the nurse and the clown from my upcoming short subject. All character animation is done in Anime Studio, and the backgrounds are a combination of Photoshop and Corel Painter.



Here's the clip...

Lefty's Walk

After focusing on backgrounds for a while, I'm getting back into some character animation. I just got Anime Studio Pro 9.5, and am really enjoying it. Here's a treadmill walk with Lefty the clown.

Uncle Freddy


Here's a piece I did for Halloween. Kind of a caricature of an old-school horror comic zombie.

Dr Sketchy's



I attended my first Dr Sketchy's. Basically, it's a gesture drawing class with a theme. Sunday's theme was postapocalyptic, and the model was a seriously lovely woman named Danni. Above are from the ten and twenty minute poses-- they started with one minutes, and worked up.

It was a hell of a lot of fun, and I plan to make the monthly Dr S sessions a habit.

Rat Bastard & The Oracle of Wackyland





Here's a couple of recent pieces. Rat Bastard was for a pinball tournament at a local bar. The Oracle of Wackyland was a sketch I liked, so I digitally inked and painted it. Kind of a lowbrow/pop surrealism thing, named for a Bob Clampett cartoon.

Lascivia

This is a piece I did for the LCS Future anthology. It's kind of a companion to the Toad-Man piece below. Again, very B-movie inspired.

3D UFO Clip


Okay, it's been a while since I've posted, but I've been busy. Here's the first shot of my first 3D Studio Max animation piece. It's basically a remake of my "From Outer Space" piece, but with more bells and whistles. Enjoy.

The El Rey




Here's the splash from a comic book story I'm working on. The title and lettering have been taken off, and replaced by a nifty watermark at no additional cost to you, the viewer.

Toad-Man!


Here's an image for an up-coming Louisville Cartoonist's Society horror anthology.

T-shirt



Here's a little side-project I've been working on-- attempting to make the Louisville skyline look even sillier than it already does. But who's that handsome bastard in the T-shirt?

PS: These are now at Ultra-Pop, on Bardstown Rd here in Louisville, and are selling well.

Some Graphics





Still working on the comic. But I've also been working on some graphics, lately.

Clown Car


Here's another short piece of animation from a personal project I'm working on. It's been temporarily preempted by another project I'm helping a friend with. But here's a still and a link to what I have. I'll update when I put some sound on it:


Don't blink...
