Soccer Kid

My drawing looks like a traditional illustration huh? Amazing what you can do with photoshop. If anyone wants to know how to get this watercolor and ink look I could post a tutorial or something. Just let me know.

Does anyone know of any good soccer manga? I'd like to see the Japanese take on telling a story involving soccer.

Character Ref

Now that I've experimented with some different rendering styles and done some strips, I'm now trying to create a more consistent design. Ultimately I may end up redoing a lot of what is above so that it can be solid and consistent from the very beginning. Many of the strips were redrawn two or three times as you can see by looking at some of my older posts below. Must do it perfectly and completely!

3D Samuel

I had almost forgotten about this model that David Liu built for me back in school. It's been awhile since I opened up Maya. My school, The Art Institute of CA in Santa Monica mainly focused on 3D. So we were trying to figure out Maya all the time. It gave me a lot of headaches and I basically focused on developing my storytelling skills while everyone else around me tried to improve their technical proficiency in Maya. That seems so long ago although I really only graduated about a year and a half ago. I'm creating some character reference so that I can keep consistency in my character designs. Enjoy.
