Page Four (or Five) - Now With More Tree!




Here's what I've got of the fourth actual page right now. On the site, it's gonna be the fifth, as the first page will be the splash/title page. As you can see in the third panel, that tree needs some attention that I forgot to give it. Either than that, it's pretty much done. I also need to go back and rework the text in the other three pages. Enjoy, and check out Kris n' Kat's contributions here.

UPDATE: Fixed the tree. I love my tablet so fucking much. I highly recommend the Wacom Bamboo to anyone who wants to learn to use a tablet and is on a budget that doesn't allow a $300+ purchase. It has half the sensitivity of the cheapest Intuos, but it has my love. Now buy one.

THREE.


At this point, it doesn't need much of an explanation. When Kris and Kat get back from their comic convention, I'll be able to get them to slap this stuff onto the VEIN site.

The Second Dystopia Page


Well guys, it's 6:15, my Tylenol PM kicked in an hour ago, and I'm ready to pass out. As you can see, though, I took the time to scan and complete the second page of my contribution to VEIN. Hope you enjoy it.

OMG KRIS?!?!?!

Some random "fanart" I did of Kris on the plane from PA to Houston. I know, I don't have anything particularly exciting to upload just yet... unless you find Kris as fascinating as I do.

The First Dystopia Page

Because there's nowhere else for you people to see this yet.

ZOMG NEW CONTENT

So hey kids, how about that dystopia? This is the first in a long line of sketches i did of this particular character. Back before Kris told me what the project was gonna exactly consist of, my idea was to have this mechanic/family man character going. I was pretty enthusiastic about his design, as you can see in the following page.

And then, mean ol' Kris shot that idea down. I did, however, have a new thing to work from. I had to make a scientist character, a character with an appearance that suits the 1980s in America.
In the meantime, I designed this scary Russian guy. He might end up being someone's shady boss? I have no clue.
After doodling a WoW character I had recently made (Laurica), and after drawing Niko Bellic from GTA IV, I began doodling potential scientist faces. As you can see, by the end of this page, I came to the conclusion that I could simply slap glasses onto the steampunk mechanic, and viola. He's my 80's scientist.

Since there's some sort of virus involved in the story, I attempted to draw mutated lab rats. Don't pay no mind to them.

Alright, there's the stuff I said I needed to scan. When there's more, I'm sure it'll eventually find its way here. Until then,

Strength in Pixels


Here's a higher-res version of this week's episode of Scurry, sans text. Yes, I'm posting this because I'm too lazy to go scan pages in my sketchbook that contain character design for the dystopia project. Yes, I am ashamed of that fact.
