penguin craziness





so, for the past month or so i've been doing some freelance trying to design a penguin that would live in aquaman's ready room, his version of the batcave. i was told they were going to build it into a robot that would function on it's own. that's why there's some random expression drawings in there. whether they're going to do those or not...no idea. they made me laugh though. at first i wasn't really given any direction to go with. they just said "go". so i just tried to figure out what kind of penguin would live in the ready room. things started getting a little cooky, so they decided on going more towards a buffed out superhero penguin, which is why the penguins start transitioning into hans and franz. i'll admit, i was getting a little frustrated with this project, more with myself than anything, but that's the way it goes. figured i'd share these little guys with ya anyway.

we're on a break

so here's where i'm at so far, but i need to take a break from her for a little bit. even though i only spend a few minutes a day on her when i can, i just gotta start something else at the same time. i should probably just finish this, but i feel caged, and i feel the urge to start something else too. maybe i got a case of a.d.d., i don't know. there's still a bunch of things i wanna paint on her, like her body markings, maybe hair since for some reason that just looks creepier, etc. etc.

in prog

so somebody (i won't name names, but he posted a comment earlier. hahahahaha) wanted to see a paint in progress, so here ya go. i'm still trying to figure things out while i go, like the values of the painting itself, exact body structure, and the whole head thing is still kinda wacky. i might give her some hair, since it looks creepier that way. not sure though. still gotta figure out the "engraved" body and tail markings i want to put on there. trying to paint her in painter too. never used it before, but it's pretty fun to use so far. just a little different than i'm used to with photoshop, but i like the milky/paint look to it.
