Ready for Rain

I sketched this rabbit with his umbrella a while back and just got around to digitally coloring it. I have a "clean" un-textured version, but I think this one has more visual interest - what do you think?

Miraculum - Joy to the World

I very much enjoyed listening. Check out this instrumental version Lincoln Brewster's Christmas carol medley. It's got a great rock-out feeling to it that made me smile. Click on it and see what I mean. Singing electric guitars, rhythmic but not overwhelming drums, some voice synth at the edges...

Zoetrophe Adventure

So, I finished the preliminary flat zoetrophe 10.7.3.1 tract this week. It's super simple and I used the design elements from a previous brochure for each "explanation" page. Each animation could only be six frames long. I have a new admiration for those people who do animation and do it well cause I now know that's definitely not my calling. So, yeah, it was a challenge to get it animated, but the main challenge this week was to get the booklet printed. I don't know what buttons I pushed to cause such a problem, but for some reason InDesign was printing the booklet out of order even though I had set things up like I have always done.

Grinch - stretchmarks on his heart?

Sketched these characters a while back. I absolutely LOVE drawing the Grinch. He's just so sour.
