The Boys Are Back in Town!



I've come close to finishing my comic "The Birdwatcher," where these characters appear. They originated as a couple of paper mache' masks I made for an unrealized photo project. I came up with the concept for Birdwatcher and needed an antagonist or two and so created these two. They are actually the subject of my first blogger post i believe. Anyway, I've come up with another scenario for these guys to be used in another story in which they are the main characters. I was inspired by Ralph Mcquarrie who did a lot of design and concept work for the original Star Wars Trilogy. The man's amazing, if you don't know already check his stuff out at his website www.ralphmcquarrie.com

Portrait Night



Bonaia and I painted one another across the kitchen table. Bonaia painted some really awesome cartoonish/grotesque pictures of me which she'll probably have on her sketchbook page. Check'm out!
