Mutants and Masterminds

Our Monday role playing group swapped to Mutants and Masterminds for a few weeks and I got a bit carried away with my character story. So much so in fact that I wasn't even able to describe it to the group... so they picked some bizarre creation that I didn't really like all that much. So my homework for the week is to go and create my original concept.

Lab assistant, that was used as a guinea pig unknowingly by his now former company, while working with an extra dimensional rift experiment, he was attacked by elemental spectres and now has to share his body with 2 of them(not sure what elements yet). The longer they inhabit his body the more of his mind they destroy. Another worker in the company knows about his deliberate involvement and anonymously tells our hero of the conspiracy, he then aims to find the lab co-coordinator that was in charge that day to find more about what happened. Fights with the idea of revenge vs cure.
Spectres can only communicate through his subconscious or when he is asleep? No direct conversations?
One was destroyed by the other, the remaining one fights to control his body? To keep the element under control he has to use an opposite force for example spectre is a fire spectre, he has to sit in a freezer when at home.

A lot of question marks, regardless I had a fairly good idea of what I wanted. His company gave hims some lame excuse about his arms (which turn into fire and ice later on) and bandaged them up with some ointments, these actually contain chemicals that subdue the change (like the freezer example in the quote).

Just me having fun at lunch and coming up with ideas but I wanted to draw the character. There's a video below of me drawing this, I actually forgot to press record for the first half, my bad...

Some thing New

So this is a really early edit for me but hey why not. Today (Monday) I had a couple of really good ideas during a lecture for motion graphics (and yea I was paying attention to the lecture) so during it I was trying to scribble these ideas down and add more to them. Now your asking what are those ideas? well one is for the motion graphics final hand so I'm not saying anything just now, but the other one is for my portfolio site. and yea its Awesome!

can't really put it in words so I will show you.

Whats THIS!? Glad you asked.

Well this is the overall look to the new portfolio site. The gray hills with the trees in the back will be moving from one side to the other and repeat it self so its a constant moving image. There will be a sign that appears when you click on a menu item that holds the content of that. The next stage after getting those things working will be moving it into Drupal if that works (fingers crossed).

Star wars

well here is my themed image this week a day late i know. To be honest I had this done a week ago but just took my time to scan it in.

as you can see its a JEDI. found this rather fun to draw and well been trying to get back into drawing stuff more and more now. Not really meant to be after any character from star wars but just a random one. You might get a treat in the next couple of weeks and have it coloured in but my brain hasn't gone that far yet.

From the Vault

Again we become brave to dive into the vault that is my pc folders to find old sample of work that were done in the past.
So my brain has been running low on creativty this week not the funnest of things to have go on. I thought I would put this up as it is one of the more interesting ones that I have done. I have tried a few things in photoshop to this but they never really work as it already look fine as it is just being shaded in with pencil. Yea not much to say about this is was done a few years back now.

Hopefully I have more of a creative week after I figure out where my brain ran off to..... too many dark places for it to hide...... well hope you have a good weekend and yea we'll see if I have that creative spark back.

Red Monkey

 

Well this was created from a jokie thing I did on facebook or Bebo one of the two. Where for your update thing I just went and put in Red Monkey and this is what it looks like to me. I had a couple of friends then go naming other animals in different colours along with it. But the best one was that I got a reply back from Sue saying her orange penguin killed the red monkey. So now I am wanting to see that fight.

Emotion chips aren't all the hype.

The plan was to colour this robot and record it so that I could put it here but my recording software doesn't want to play ball,so instead, you get the draft and inked version to view. I'll be putting the coloured version probably with a bit more detail on the blog at some point.

I have MUCH bigger versions if anyone wants one. As long as you ask and give credit your welcome to use this draft/line art to practise inking/colouring.

Hope you enjoy it, I'm looking forward to the next one.
